Sarah’s Cake Shop

I love this place! I came in to get a cake for my parents 60^th birthday party. The shop is so adorable, very welcoming and pretty, just what you would think a beautiful cake shop should be. The employee who helped me was so friendly and made great suggestions. She let me taste the different kinds of icing to make sure it was exactly how I wanted it. The finished product was absolutely beautiful. It was a round layered chocolate cake with an ombré icing on the sides that went from dark turquoise to a light Tiffany blue color. It was absolutely stunning and picture perfect — something out of a magazine! And to top it all off the cake was so delicious. The flavor and texture of the cake and icing were amazing — probably the best cake I’ve ever had! I will be coming back here again for sure.

Their snack cake cupcake reinvigorated my faith in a higher place, even though it may have been less than ideal for my diabetes. If I could hijack a tray of those bad boys, I’d gladly risk diabetic coma for the divinity of those cupcakes. Mmmmmmmm.

I’m going to counseling and I’m doing much better. I started with one cupcake and before I knew it I was up to 3 or 4 every time her food truck was around. I’m trying to just get one. These are seriously some of, actually they definitely are the best cupcakes around. Tons of creative and excellent flavors too

I ordered a cake for my father-in-law’s birthday and he loves polka. I sent a clip art pix of a polka player and when I picked it up, it was the coolest cutest cake I’ve ever seen. They captured every detail of the clip art. My father-​in-​law LOVED the cake and didn’t want to cut it so we cut the writing part and saved the polka player with accordian for another time. The cake was exquisite and I will definitely use Sarah’s Cake Shop Again!

Sara’s cake is pretty w/​e (whatever) I stopped going here after they refused to make a custom cake for my birthday. I asked for a giant cake pop and told them I would pay whatever the cost was but they straight up refused. I told them I would find a bakery who would appreciate the business and left. I went back to my car and decided to go back in and get a couple cup cakes I believe the total was $ 6 the cashier who informed me they wouldn’t make my cake then asked for my ID when I presented my card I’m assuming just to spite me. The reason I say she did it out of spite is because she didn’t ID the old man in front of me for a $ 12 purchase. (Real mature) when I got home I went to eat my cupcake and The icing on the cake of this whole situation (clever puns right?) was both of my cupcakes were stale…

I got four cupcakes for a b-​day from a wonderful friend! One chocolate minion, one red velvet heart, and two yellow cake with icing roses ! WOW! The are light and yummy and phenomenal! I have NEVER had cupcakes as fantastic as these!!! I cannot put in to words how incredible these cakes are! And they are decorated perfectly! I would like to thank the baker who made them (they were bought 7/​8/​2015!) I am so happy to have experienced these heavenly cakes! Next time I need a bakery I’m heading straight to Sarah’s!!! It is worth every penny! Thank you for baking your wonderful cakes!!! I’m a new fan and can’t wait to try the other heavenly items!!!
If you think I’m going to far with my review just go get a cupcake and then you will realize what I’m talking about!

Dropped in for a quickie while Bam (my Pug baby) waited for his vet appointment a few doors down. I’ve been meaning to get by Sarah’s for some time now and I’m glad I did. I would’ve blown my diet for sure lol!
This place is adorable; beautiful cakes, huge homemade gourmet cookies, cheesecake pops, cupcakes, cookie balls, etc.
The young lady behind the counter was super nice and helpful; I’m so indecisive. Didn’t wanna leave empty-​handed so I grabbed 2 cookie balls; they are chocolate chip cookie dough balls (sans egg) dipped in dark chocolate and garnished with cookie crumble. What I really wanted was the blueberry cobbler muffin; but the way my calories and carbs are set-​up…
They have 2 food trucks and are always at Food Truck events around the city, so if you’re not in the Clayton/​Chesterfield area be sure to look for their cute little truck on a site near you.

The best cake in town! I have purchased cupcakes for many years from them and they are always delicious. My favorite is the pineapple Chardonnay, which they don’t carry every day! Grab it if you see it. I have also purchased a birthday cake from them. I took in a picture of my sons’s favorite character at the time and they did a phenomenal job decorating the cake. They didn’t screen the picture or copy it. They actually created decorations based on it, which made it very unique. The cake was chocolate, which can be dry if you don’t know what you are doing. Let me say, it was very moist and taste great.
Don’t miss their grill cheese truck either! Yummy!

My groom and I went through Sarah’s Cake Shop for our January 2015 wedding at the St. Louis Visitor Center. We ended up going with a customized groom’s cake (with the groom’s college logo) and rather than having a wedding cake, we went with several little desserts (cake pops, gooey butter bars and dessert shots). I can’t begin to tell you how amazing the desserts turned out. I live in Dallas but am from St. Louis and I cannot wait until the next time I am up for a visit and nearby Chesterfield to stop in and get some sweets. In addition to how great everything tasted, the desserts were made very pleasing to the eye… I almost didn’t want to cut into the groom’s cake because it was so cute! But that didn’t stop us. The service staff is a little hands off compared to our other wedding vendors — which can be good or bad — depending on the type of planner you are, but they definitely delivered in the quality of the desserts. I felt responsiveness on emails took a little bit, but I am still happy I went with Sarah’s for our event.

I was lucky to visit Sarah’s pink & white food truck in Creve Coeur today. I bought the «Snack Cake» and it was wonderful. It was moist, chocolaty and just the right amount of buttercream frosting. And despite the appearance it was not overly sweet. The standard-​sized cupcakes were all priced at a very reasonable $ 3 each. Overall impression: perfect.

Their glitter bites are pricey but all I ever get. I’ve gotten their wedding cake by the slice but it’s just not as good as the glitter bites.

Last stop on the June 7 girlfriend food ramble through west St. Louis County.
It was amazingly busy for 3 p.m. on a Saturday.
There were not too many cupcake offerings, but plenty of other confections.
But nothing was calling my name.
So I got a piece of frosted banana bread for $ 2.50. Hmmm, yeah! And it was good.
Everybody got other things: cookies, Everyday Wedding Cake (available by the piece), glitter bites, cake truffles.
This place is so focused on wedding cakes, I’m sure it’s difficult to put out confections while concentrating on other business.
When we entered and when we left, they were loading up the truck to cater.

The cakes here are delicious… the customer service, however; could use an overhaul.

I absolutely love Sarah’s cake truffles! Every year on my birthday instead of a cake my boyfriend gets me a dozen of these and I’d be sad if I went back to a regular cake!

I came to this spot after some time away and was greeted by a newly expanded premises. The décor is definitely sweet, with its pink hued walls and offset seating section. In addition to classic favorites such as vanilla cream, red velvet, and carrot, this emporium also offers a Friday Happy Hour special. Thanks to my Mom, and her trusty selection of coupons (buy 5 get the sixth cupcake free) we were able to assemble an assortment of goodies and sample a bit of everything. When I visited, the happy hour cupcake was a strawberries and champagne. The surprise of strawberry jam within the cake made for an unexpected treat, though I personally preferred the vanilla. With a couple of cupcakes still left, I am looking forward to trying the salted caramel. A sprinkle of sea salt on top is sure to turn an ordinary caramel cupcake into an unexpectedly decadent confection.

The cupcakes here were pretty good and reasonably priced. The specialty cupcakes cost around $ 2.50– $ 2.75 while basic ones are cheaper. This is about $ 1 less than the gourmet cupcakes I’ve had in bigger cities (keeping in mind these are not as large and glamorous). I tried cookies & cream, triple chocolate and red velvet and enjoyed them all. The cream cheese frosting on the red velvet was my favorite. The frosting on the triple chocolate was a bit deceiving since it was just cream icing coated in chocolate (as opposed to chocolate icing).
The inside is very quaint and nicely decorated. They offer other desserts besides the cupcakes including truffles, cake pops and tarts. The ladies working here were nice and helpful.

Best cupcakes in St. Louis.
Follow the food truck!

I became a fan when they brought their cake truck down to KC to celebrate 3girlscupcake anniversary. I feel in love with the weeding cake cupcakes. So, when I made a drive to Florida for the Zumba convention I made a point to find them as I drove through STL. It took me a minute but I did find their shop. The lady was helpful in helping me buy the entire store of goodies. I loved them all. It is not a wonder that they just won the best dessert food truck competition. They deserve their props.

My husband knows how much I love snickerdoodles. For my birthday, he called nearly every bakery in town trying to get one to make a snickerdoodle cookie cake for me. Everywhere refused. They would make a chocolate chip, but not a snickerdoodle. Since I cannot eat chocolate, this would not suffice.
Then he called Sarah’s Cake Shop. Now, they had never made one of these before. But while on the phone with my hubbie, they figured out a way to do it, and told him they would give it a shot.
On my birthday, I had a giant, 2 inch thick snickerdoodle cookie cake. It was delicious, and apparently, one of a kind around town.
So, big props to you Sarah’s Cake Shop for taking on the challenge and doing it splendidly. You made my day!

Went to Sarah’s Cake Shop on Saturday to pick up a cupcake for my mom for Mothers Day. Of course, I had to get one for me and one for my dad, too. There was no way we were going to just watch her eat one. As a bonus, I went there with my wife and daughter, and surprised my wife (and daughter) by buying three additional cupcakes so that we could have a little family Mothers Day treat one day early.
The store (not the food truck) is a typical storefront place. You simply go in, look at all the goodies, and pick out what you want. Prices for cupcakes seemed reasonable $ 2 — $ 2.50, depending on if you got normal varieties or one of their specialties. Compare these to the Cupcake Bar at Pastries of Denmark in creve Coeur — $ 3.50 per cupcake. However, Sarah’s are smaller, so it’s pretty much a wash. If you want a very sweet, really fancy cupcake, go to Pastries of Denmark. For a bit simpler, bit smaller, no so sickly sweet cupcake, go to Sarah’s. Sarah’s also has different types of cake slices available. The wedding cake slices looked especially good. Maybe next time…
One thing I liked about Sarah’s is that the cupcakes are not so overly sweet. The cake is more flavorful than just sweet. The toppings are what makes them, though, in my opinion. Not only are they artfully presented, they taste really good! They have several specialty cupcakes always available, along with other specialties for specific days of the week. My mom and I both especially liked the salted caramel. Think of a caramel version of dark chocolate with sea salt… mmmm.
If you don’t work downtown or in the CWE, it can be hard to find the food truck. But the store is easily accessible, and a quick in-​n-​out.
Pick up a variety dozen and bring some my way on your trip back!

I have to start with the fact that I have never been to the store, but did have a cupcake.
My friend knows how much I love cupcakes, so surprised me with one when we went out the other night. She bought the surprise «Happy Hour» cupcake which is only available on Fridays and it is made with liqueur. I do not know the name of the one she bought, but it was mint and chocolate. It was a decent cupcake, but I thought it was a little dry. I like the concept of the Friday surprise, so will most likely venture that way again on a Friday in the near future. Then I can add more about the actual store.
