Cake Bloom - Charlottesville

Had the Persian Love cake the other day and it might’ve been the best cake I have ever had not made by my grandma or mom

I was torn between and 3 and a 4 star. We went for afternoon tea today which was sadly disappointing. The tea sandwiches, while tasting wonderful, were on extremely dry bread. The scone was over baked, dry, and hard. The cookies were delightful. I was excited to try the Magic Blue tea served with lemon simple syrup. It was not syrup, it was just lemon juice. Had to ask for sugar after 20 minutes. The saving grace was the sample cakes we purchased. The tiramisu, carrot, and vanilla slices were amazing. I'm sorry, $25 per person for an afternoon tea experience here is not worth it. Stick to the cakes, you won't be disappointed in them.

A sweet little shop on w main street. The cake is delicious and hard to top. The whole cake pictured was a hit for the holidays, and you can't go wrong with the slice options. Be sure to take advantage of the seasonal flavors that rotate monthly. This is also a fun experience for the littles who can come in and have a slice and milk flight. The bubble pairings for the adults have always blended well with the cake flavors. Fun stuff happens, so check the calendars for special tea opportunities and other events.

We loved working with cake bloom! We wanted a small, two-tier cake for us to cut during our wedding reception. We chose another dessert option to serve to our guests vs. serving cake. We purchased their five-slice sampler (each one was delicious! to make the decision of our cake flavors. We are not local, so they were flexible and waited until we were in town about a month before the wedding to pick up the samples and make our decision. The cake was exactly what we were wanting and the floral additions were beautiful. We definitely recommend Cake Bloom if you’re looking for a small cake for your wedding or event.

Second afternoon tea service here and I am excited to go back again. The food and service are wonderful! Loved the seasonal offerings, and online booking was easy. Thank you Cake Bloom!
