Jules Bakery

I don’t know how long this bakery has been around, but when everyone asked where our wedding cake was from, no one had heard of this place. I happened to find it online… this is the problem with planning a wedding from the other side of the world. They were quick to email back and I have to say that Sam, who was answering my questions was really helpful and thorough. They were willing to let me pay by credit card over the phone because we were abroad, which no one else was really willing to do. They were upfront about not delivering to Pinicon Ridge (fair enough), but I was a bit disappointed after paying the deposit that they told me they were uncomfortable putting the flowers on the cake since we would be transporting it ourselves. It would have been nice to know that upfront.
However, that’s really the only issue we had. Because we were transporting the cake ourselves, she suggested for the number of people we had to go with a two tiered cake and half a sheet cake. The great thing about that is that we got to choose multiple cake flavors :). They were also clear that they do not use fondant, which was fine with us, but do be aware that if you want the cream cheese frosting… say for a Red Velvet Cake, they do not use it on a tiered cake. So we ended up going with a vanilla sponge with strawberry filling and a vanilla buttercream for the tiered cake and Red Velvet with a cream cheese frosting on the sheet cake.
We stopped in for a consult right before the wedding and got to meet the owner. She did have some concerns about the decoration of the cake, mostly because the rosettes are a heavy design (as an amateur baker I know this first hand!) and on that particular day it was quite warm and she just didn’t want them to melt. As a result she told us if we wanted to pick up the cake anytime on Saturday before the wedding, she would be happy to keep it in their refrigerators until then. We got to talking because she had lived in the UK, very near where we first lived… then she asked, «So have you been in before? Have you even tried our cake?» When we said no, she asked Sam to package up some cupcakes. The cupcakes were a bit dried out by the time we got to them later that evening, but they had good flavor.
Our cakes looked lovely, she pre-​scored the sheet cake and put little white roses on them. And they both traveled beautifully. The cakes were soooooo good! I guess because the cupcakes were a bit dried out, I thought the cake might be as well, but truly these are some of the best cakes I have ever gotten at a bakery. All of the guests… including us, wanted a slice of each cake because they were so good. The strawberry filling in the vanilla cake was really nice… not overly sweet… a touch tart, but that was was great with the sugary buttercream. My favourite was the Red Velvet Cake… hands down, the best Red Velvet Cake from a bakery. It was moist and most importantly… it tasted like chocolate! Everyone seems to forget the orgins of the Red Velvet Cake, so I was definitely impressed with the flavor. And the cream cheese buttercream was delicious! We had a BBQ the next day and everyone was asking if there was more cake. The cake was a real hit and I would be happy to order from them again!

It was my daughters first birthday and I was looking for a local bakery to make her cakes, this was the worst decision I have ever made. When I went in I had a picture of what I wanted, the words I wanted and the colors I wanted. I wanted a dark pink and the girl kept repeating dark coral, this went back and fourth maybe 2 minutes. That’s when I should have known to leave.
I go pick up the cakes, smash and regular, in a severe thunderstorm warning. The girls were being yelled at by another customer and when they showed me my cakes I about cried. They didn’t ask if they looked good, they were busy.
I paid 70 dollars for absolute crap. The main cake looked like someone forgot to make it so they scribbled on some slop and forgot the words I wanted so they shoved some words up in the corner. The smash cake was supposed to be gold and pink… it was bright yellow and orange… I called and the girls told me the manager would call and get it figured out. I took the cakes home and redid them.
The manager calls, very rude (I will leave out her name) and immediately asks me what I am trying to get out of this… NOTHING! Your staff said you would call me, I didn’t ask for you… long story short the service sucks and the high school girls behind the counter can’t correctly take notes.
I won’t ever be back.

It’s and amazing bakery… do I need to say anything else? Go. try it… love it. I have had several things from here and it’s a great treat for any situation.

We initially ordered 80 cookies based on the cookies that were available in the display case, to be picked up later for an event we were hosting. Even though we ordered 80 cookies there was no volume discount, so we paid the standard $ 1.50 price per cookie. When we picked up the cookies, just a few hours before the event, they were unacceptable. They were the wrong size and the icing was the wrong color. The real problem, however, was the decorating which was atrocious. Instead of the delicately, nicely decorated display case cookies on which we had based our order, these looked «slapped together» and the decorating could’ve been done by a second grade school class. What added insult to injury was that they completely refused to acknowledge what the problem was, but refunded our money only «because we did not use the right color.“we went by a local grocery store and bought some replacement cookies, not what we wanted, but a lot better then the cookies we have been given.

Small bakery but very friendly and their confections are great! Would definitely come in again for a snack or breakfast!

No question their treats and baked goods are amazing – I have ordered cupcakes, bars and cookies from Jules and everything was delicious. Unfortunately I won’t ever be coming back, as the owner is a huge jerk.
My fiancé and I are midway through a 20 month engagement, and being the planners that we are, we wanted to line up as many vendors as we could early in the game. So far every vendor has been appreciative and accommodating, until it came time to find a baker. I called Jules last spring to set up a tasting, and she told me to call back in a year. SERIOUSLY. If I want to arrange things well in advance (this means put down a deposit to book our date and have it all set in stone) I can’t understand why we would need to wait. As it turned out, Scratch Cupcakes were willing to take our deposit and book in advance, so Jules lost our business both for the wedding and for everything else. Pretty dumb.

I just tried their lemon cake with lemon frosting. The cake was absolutely perfect. It was moist, tasty, and beautifully decorated.
I’ve had Jules’ products several times and am very pleased. I like their pies but feel their true strength is in the cake department. I would definitely trust them with special occasion items such as birthday cakes and wedding cakes. Great stuff and super nice people!

I love stopping by Jules Bakery! They always have something fun and new to try, and everyone is very friendly. I’ve never had one of their cakes, but their other treats are great! Just grab a coffee and a treat, head over to a park, and it’s a great afternoon!

Jules Bakery has always been a hit or miss for me. I have never tried their cakes, so I can’t comment on them, but I have tried their pastries numerous times. First off, my favorite are the pecan rolls and the pecan bars. They’re sweet, soft, and rich. Overall a delicious choice. But their regular cinnamon rolls are such a dud! They’re always rock hard and the taste like they’ve been in the display case for days. The frosting on them is also flavorless and solidified as well. Maybe what they should do is frost them when you buy them? It might help. And if their display case is refrigerated, that could also be the problem. Putting cakes, cupcakes, pastries, etc in the refrigerator will dry them out like you wouldn’t believe!
I’ve also had their cupcakes and I don’t think they’re anything special. They’re big, yes. And very pretty. But if you’re caught up in the cupcake craze that’s sweeping the country, Jules’ cupcakes are no big deal. I will say that both times I’ve tried their champagne cupcakes they’ve been less than impressive. The first time they tasted like plain old vanilla cupcakes. The second time someone was a little heavy-​handed with the cheap champagne and the cupcakes had a burnt alcohol taste to them. Yuck!
With their amazing pecan rolls and pecan bars (which are unfortunately seasonal, along with their good customer service, I have to give them three stars. I think if they made some small improvements they really could increase the quality of their products.

We haven’t tried a full cake here yet, but have enjoyed a variety of treats from the bakery display. Lemon bars: good. Mimosa cookies: gooooood. Cupcakes: a little dry, but overall tasty. A Slice of Heaven: To. Die. For.
The prices are also very reasonable. The only sad part is that it is near our gym. Guilt, guilt, guilt.

5 stars for the Ascott cake; it is absolutely perfect (raspberry, dark chocolate, and champagne cake). After the first time I ordered this for a friend’s birthday, every other friend has been sure to remind me when theirs is! I’ve never had to special order, they have several cakes on hand to choose from.
I’m only giving them 3 stars because their single-​serving bakery treats are hit or miss, and every cookie has always been dry and low on taste. Skip the display cases get the cake and you will always be pleased.

I have gone to Jules Bakery for all of the birthday cakes for my sons during the last 3 years and have had nothing but great experience with them.
They are very willing to adapt to whatever themes we’ve had (ninja, kung fu, pirate, etc.) and always create something really clever and well done.
I am guilty of requesting these cakes on short notice, many times same day and they have always been able to deliver.
All in all, a great place. And the cakes are delicious!

In a word: Outstanding!!!
I can’t narrow it down to any one item… except maybe their cake frosting. Oh, not too sweet, not too anything, just to die for.
Everything is reasonably priced, too.

My boyfriend lives down the street from this place. He doesn’t let me visit him very often because I indulge at this place a little too much whenever I come and visit. It’s been the most depressing this week visiting him as I can’t eat anything from here because of getting my wisdom teeth removed.
That said, I’m kind of really in love with their offerings. I’ve had their cookies and while they’re a little dry, they’re still tasty and full of flavor. But their bars? Oh. I would do awful things to good, nice people for their lemon bars. Or cheesecake brownie. Petit fours. Eclairs. Brownie mousse bites.
Yeah. I’m just going to stop punishing myself now by thinking about it, but if you can go there, um, why aren’t you? Do something nice for yourself. Give these people business, they deserve it.

So I had the birthday cake. First of all, it was adorable. It had green fondant frosting with pink swirls all around it. And the actual cake was delicious even after sitting for two days (we had to pick the cake up two days before the party). So I’m upping the stars to 4. Still not giving 5 since the original cupcakes were supposedly fresh and they were dry. But I’m definitely a fan now.

Hands down, this place is awesome. During my first visit I ordered a regular-​sized and mini-​cupcake, three cookies, and a small slice of cheesecake; the total was only $ 7.00! Everything was very good. I especially loved the Danish Butter Cookies. I’m anxious to visit again and try more of what Jules has to offer.

We had a big birthday party for the Kids. My son, my nieces and nephews, ordered 24 CUPCAKES i typed that in all caps because the CUPCAKES were big! 12 vanilla and 12 chocolate with lots of frosting. For the 24 CUPCAKES it was $ 30 even and the order was done on time and ready for me to pick up!
