I have not been happy with a lot of the bakery made birthday cakes we have gotten over the past few years so we decided to go to The Master’s Baker in West Chester. I wanted a special 18th birthday cake for my stepson.

People forget that they aren’t just solely for weddings – they are a specialty bakery that can handle any of your needs. Being a specialty bakery means that you order and you pick up and there is no street traffic – it’s not retail in other words.

We ordered the most amazing birthday cake from them. Their flavors are clean and their cake texture is perfect – not dry just moist enough and flavorful. And that has been the problem with a lot of the bakery cakes we have bought over the past few years — the cake textures left much to be desired and in most cases the frostings were just dense and sweet they didn’t really have a stand out flavor of their own.

The Master’s Baker is next to St. Agnes in the Borough of West Chester.

Next time you need a specialty cake or other delightful baked goods for a special event (hint: also check out things like their canoli and French Macarons!)

The cake we chose was red velvet with a chocolate buttercream filling and a vanilla buttercream frosting in case you were wondering 😊

The photo I will end this post with is the lovely room where our cake was waiting for us to be picked up. And the staff couldn’t be nicer and something which I think is totally key considering how horrible parking can be in West Chester Borough is the fact that they have off street parking in front of their business!

I will end with my standard disclaimer – I am not being compensated in any way for my opinion of this local business. I am a happy customer.
