Adorable and tasty cake
They did a great job on the cake. It looked exactly like what I wanted! It’s also delicious and they provided a good serving size that all my guests could enjoy it.They did a great job on the cake.

Beautiful, delicious classic cake
Beautiful classic design on the cake, which was also great-tasting. They incorporated flowers from our florist as well as an elegant, understated frosting pattern. They offered good strategies for incorporating a gluten free cake as well as sheet cakes to feed additional guests.Beautiful classic design on the cake, which was also great-tasting.

Delicious and Beautiful
I can't say it enough how WONDERFUL Ohlson's Bakery was to work with. She made a beautiful cake at an amazing price, it was also the MOST delicious cake we tasted during our wedding tastings. She even took my swatches to match the flowers on the cake! She was kind, professional and an overall pleasure to work with! She even let me use my grandmother's cake topper and built a base for it so it would fit perfectly on top! The best part, they will bake you a FRESH anniversary cake when it is your one year, so you don't have to defrost and eat a frost bit cake! I would HIGHLY recommend them if you want a memorable and remarkable cake on you wedding. My guests all kept raving about how moist and yummy the cake was!I can't say it enough how WONDERFUL Ohlson's Bakery was to work with.

Excellent and prefect
The fake flowers made out of sugar and other edible stuff looked real! The colors matched my wedding colors, and wedding flowers, it was gorgeous! It also tasted amazing! Was buttercream with vanilla Raspberry marble.
I got their assorted mini pastry tray, a couple assorted butter cookie trays ( which are totally addicting by the way) and 3 of their Terimesu's! Tarimesu is my favorite dessert! I paid an extra 50 to have them drop it off at the wedding venue for me. Was all perfect and reasonably priced!The fake flowers made out of sugar and other edible stuff looked real!

Great Experience !
Ohlson's Bakery was great to work with and the final product was exactly like pictures/ideas of what we wanted the cake to look like. Due to the pandemic we ended up having two very small wedding receptions and Ohlson's was able to make some last minute changes to our order and create two identical wedding cakes. Not only were they both beautiful, but they were also delicious !!Ohlson's Bakery was great to work with and the final product was exactly like pictures/ideas of what we wanted the cake to look like.

Ohlson's bakery is simply amazing
I had heard nothing but positive reviews from Ohlson's Bakery, yet somehow they were able to exceed my expectations for our wedding cake. They were able to create a cake that not only looked amazing but also tasted as good as it looked. They were able to take all of my design wishes and turn them into reality and I could not have asked for a better experience working with them. Their delivery was timely and professional as well, and they took care of everything on the day of the wedding, eliminating all of my worries. We would highly recommend Ohlson's Bakery for weddings or any special occasion.I had heard nothing but positive reviews from Ohlson's Bakery, yet somehow they were able to exceed my expectations for our wedding cake.

Beautiful, Delicious, Great to work with!
This bakery is so lovely to work with. Their staff is warm and welcoming and the finished product was perfect. Their pricing was very reasonable and much better than other popular bakeries in Buffalo! Would absolutely recommend them to anyone in the area!This bakery is so lovely to work with.

Great tasting cake - looked great too!
Cake tasting was the appointment that everyone wanted to attend. We showed up at Ohlson's with 6 people in tow and they didn't bat an eye at letting them all taste with us. We tasted a few cakes around Buffalo, and this cake base was definitely the best - moist, fresh, and delicious! Lisa was great to work with, suggesting designs for us to react to, and being flexible when we asked for changes. Everything was delivered to the venue with no issue (as far as we know!) and it's a nice touch that they give you a free cake on your one year anniversary so you don't have to keep the top layer in your freezer! I highly recommend hiring Lisa and Ohlson's for your big day!Cake tasting was the appointment that everyone wanted to attend.

Felt like Family
The moment we stepped into Ohlson's bakery it felt like home. They are Christian based and it feels like a small town bakery/cafe. We had a wonderful little cake tasting and there are replicas of cakes to choose from and an ipad with so many cake decorating ideas! We love the 300 series because it fit perfectly in our budget. They were even able to customize our cake and mix and match within that series. We loved our cake: it was beautiful and delicious. We picked the almond cake. We had ~110 wedding guests and there was more than enough cake for them with the whole top left over! The cake could definitely feed 130 guests as advertised.
Also, if you have time grab some breakfast too!The moment we stepped into Ohlson's bakery it felt like home. They are Christian based and it feels like a small town bakery/cafe.

From the Testing to the wedding day, everything was perfect!
The planning group at Ohlsons was on point the entire process. Their cakes had an incredible reputation and everyone was stunned by how beautiful and tasty the wedding cake was. I love that both my husband and I got the flavors we each love and truly enjoyed the entire experience with them!The planning group at Ohlsons was on point the entire process.

Delicious and beautiful wedding cake
We hired Ohlson's Bakery for our October Wedding. We purchased a 3 tier display cake, 2 sheet cakes and a package of gluten free cupcakes. We also did a birthday cake for a guest of ours who was celebrating a birthday on our wedding day. From the first tasting to the delivery, everything with Ohlson's was perfect. But, most importantly, the cakes were DELICIOUS! Our guests raved about the cake all night and our guests with dietary restrictions were absolutely ecstatic to be included with the gluten free cupcakes. Thank you, Ohlson's for making our wedding cake a highlight of our evening!We hired Ohlson's Bakery for our October Wedding.

Definitely will be going back for another cake on our 1-year anniversary :)Absolutely the best tasting cake in our area! The design was absolutely beautiful and their prices are reasonable.

We tried multiple bakeries and this by far was the most delicious! We were delighted with the cake and the small desserts that we requested for our wedding. All of our guests gushed over how wonderful the cake was, it was decorated perfectly to my vision and Lisa Ohlson was a delight to work with. She was professional, friendly and accommodating.We tried multiple bakeries and this by far was the most delicious!

We initially had booked with another bakery, but could not be happier that "deal" fell through! While our first bakery showed subpar customer service and responsiveness, Ohlson's FAR exceeded our expectation. As we live out of town, scheduling meetings for visits home can be a bit difficult; this was not so for Ohlson's. Lisa was incredibly responsive and accommodating in meeting with us, and we fell in love with Ohlson's upon our first visit. Most important to note, the cake was SUPERB. Our families and guests have given us endless compliments about our wedding cake, all of which we owe to Ohlson's.

Amazing Cake and Great People
You pretty much can't go wrong with Ohlson's -- they're a household name around town, and we decided to go with them for our wedding cake. Make sure you stop by and have lunch when you make your appointment (it's worth it), and they're so helpful with decor ideas. We went with a three-tier almond-raspberry, and our guests are still talking about it. Highly recommend!You pretty much can't go wrong with Ohlson's -- they're a household name around town, and we decided to go with them for our wedding cake.
