For me the highlight of the party is the cake. I know, I know there is the magic of the celebration, the bringing together of family and loved ones. But it always culminates in the Birthday song around, you guessed it the Cake. No matter if the Birthday song is off key and your Party Princess couldn’t keep the kids out of your flower beds, an amazing cake is the cure for all party woes. Because we care about your party in Austin we have curated a list of our favourite Cake Shops in the City, along with their opening hours, contact details and addresses. Making it as easy as possible for you to plan that special day.

Why these Cake Shops in Austin?
You might be wondering why we showcased these Cake Shops when there are so many other bakeries in Austin. All of the Cakes shops in this post we have either visited, seen their work at parties in Austin or they were recommended to us by our entertainers or customers. If we didn’t taste their cakes personally we did some research on your behalf to make sure that they had good reviews and up to date contact details.
If you are a baker, cake maker or have experience with an amazing Cake Shop in ATX, please let us know in the comments below so we can add them / you to our recommended list. After we taste your cake of course.
