Candle Ready Cakes Inc - Dubuque

The best cookies and cakes around. So glad we have a place like that in Dbq

Amazing sweets! Really friendly staff and yummy/decadent treats!

I was on a mission from God, and I love how He placed me in a place that had this corner shop! I picked up a 4 pack and when I got home (more than 2 hours away), I ate the Carrot Cake—ohmygoodness! It was so moist, so decadent, I’d say best CC cuppie I’ve ever eaten. Last night we enjoyed the 2 PB Oreo… and quite incredible. Tonight we shall share the Boston Cream and based on the other 3, we know we are looking forward to it! I don’t foresee Dubuque in my missions again, but Lord, I’m ok if you send me back

The cupcakes and macarons are amazing--by far my top choice for the area. We also love the holiday theme cookie decorating kits that are offered for pre-order. My daughter LOVES decorating them and they taste pretty good for a sugar cookie too. I don't know about the cakes. They look great but I've tried to order one a few times now and they are either booked up or are closed the day I need to pick it up. Website says you have to order at least 3 days in advance for a semi-custom cake but good luck on that. But if you are just in the area definitely stop in the shop and pick from what they have in the case that day. You won't be disappointed.

Given the flux of planning our wedding during a pandemic, we ordered our cake/cupcakes rather close to our wedding. But, Candle Ready Cakes we're more than willing to take our order and have it ready for pickup. I may have only gotten to eat one, but it was very delicious and they looked beautiful! Thank you so much!
