Rolf's cakes – My friend told me about Rolf's when I needed a cake for my husband's surprise birthday party. I brought in a picture from a fishing magazine, and they copied it way beyond what I expected. I could not believe the detail of the artwork--but most importantly, the cake tasted amazing. The people at Rolf's were very nice and helpful. I will be ordering my daughter's birthday cake from Rolf's and will recommend them to my friends!

Rude! Lady was trashy.. – I had heard okay things about their cakes and with Rolf's being the bakery of 3 of the seven weddings we went to this past summer..not impressed! This bakery is offered with our venue so we went in for the tasting and Sarah was rude and trashy. Could not get the concept of the cake we wanted and really only wanted us to do the "package deal" when we wanted to upgrade. She kept trying to back out of what we wanted so I gave up and agreed to what she said so we could get out. Also, the cakes from what... read more

Authentic and Sophisticated European Cakes – Rolf's cakes are absolutely amazing! I was at an event where the triple vanilla bean cheesecake was served along with the hokey pokey, which is exclusive to Whole Foods. Oftentimes American-style cakes are way too dense or the cake itself is too dry, but Rolf has an authentic European style, as good as cakes I had in Germany. The vanilla mousse is so pillowy and you can even see flecks of vanilla bean in it. The cheesecake is in a thin layer, really letting the vanilla mousse shin... read more

Don't go there for the cake – The staff we friendly, but cake was terrible. If you want bland and dry this is the place for you. Our wedding venue offers a discount if you use Rolf's for the cake, but if I'm going to pay hundreds of dollars for a cake I'd rather serve something that people will eat, rather than serving something that will look pretty, but be thrown out at the end of the night.

Great Service and delicious choices – I was recommended to visit this bakery by Kathy at Kasia's Bridal for my wedding cake. I called and asked for Fabiloa (as suggested by Kathy) however, she was not available. I did end up visting with Joanne. My visit was very informative. I was able to have a tasting with my finace and mother. I'm very happy to have made my appointment here. We did purchase a few of their delicious concoctions out of their cases to take home, we even were able to purchase a miniture cake with the flavor ... read more

When good places go bad – Rolf's used to make the best chocolate cake ever. Then, about a year ago, I bought one for a family gathering and was so disappointed to find that it was just terribly dry and stale. I decided to give them another chance last week, hoping it was just a fluke. Same thing this time, just really mediocre and dry. I could have made a Duncan Hines cake myself for a fraction of the price that would have tasted ten times better. So disappointing.

Wedding Galor – I recently used Rolfs for my wedding cake and i highly recommend it. To be honest the only dislike was that the designs were a bit dated but you can take a picture and the Chef will create the design just as it is shown. The cake choices were superb and you can sample with or without the filling. The process was made very pleasent and enjoyable by the cake consultant. She was amiable to work with. My cake turned out exquisite, i really did not expect less.

Special and Sweet – I had a special 1st birthday for my daughter and i went to Rolf's for the cake, i will never go else where. The young lady who helped me was very detailed and helped me create the cake i was envisioning. The cake had 3 round tiers with different colors on each of them. It was the perfect center of attention and one of the main focal points of the party. Besides the colors there were details on each tier that were also different, each tier represented my daughters favorite t.v. character. The order was pla... read more

Rolf's Patisserie is really a hidden gem!. I can't tell you how happy myself and all of my friends have been since we have made the transition over to them from other bakeries. Not only are their products some of the best I have ever seen and tasted, they are extremely reasonable. You get the same quality and service if not better as the boutique bakeries downt town for a fraction of the price! Now I use them for just about everything: wedding cakes, pastries, b-day cakes, sculpted cakes, etc. They are located just north of ... read more
