Never disappointed with this small town bakery, and for me, it’s worth the 45 minute drive! I am always so impressed with the talent that goes into every birthday cake I order! Not only are they beyond beautiful, but delicious as well! We always get asked where our cakes come from, and the leftovers are still good a couple days later! So THANK YOU again for always creating the perfect masterpieces that are always remembered and well loved! So talented!

I ordered a gluten free coconut cake and it was amazing! Super soft cake with the best icing. Wasn’t overly sweet and texture was perfect!

The bakery was full of different sweets such as lemon pound cake, oatmeal raisin cookies, brownies and so much more. The smoothies are homemade and very delicious. The service was fast and easy. Highly recommend to visit this Rockingham treasure

Looking for the BEST cinnamon roll? This is the spot! We also bought a half dozen assorted cupcakes and they were so delicious, ALL of them! My son really enjoyed the cookies and cream ice cream. They also have a few tables and chairs to enjoy all of their yumminess!

I’ve now been twice to Kool Kakes and wasn’t that impressed both times. I wanted to be fair and give them another shot before I left a review.

The Cherry Yum Yum is truly the best thing that they have. Super Yummy!!!

However, I’ve had the cupcakes, slices of cake, banana pudding, and rolls and wasn’t that impressed. The cupcakes all taste like the same cake batter and buttercream frosting with just tweaks maybe with food coloring and artificial tasting extracts.

The banana pudding was okay but nothing that would stand out. The cakes are more on the dry side and the rolls did not taste very fresh at all.

Their shop is super cute on the inside but the space or room next to the room with the glass displays feels disjointed.

As a baker myself I LOVE to try other baker’s sweet treats but unfortunately I just didn’t enjoy my experience here overall.

I know this place has been around a while so I wish them continued and future success. If you ever change your recipes up, I’d love to give you another shot in the future!
