I’m on the hunt for the best birthday cake because…November is my birthday month!
I’m always trying to find the perfect white cake. I like chocolate, but there’s nothing better than the best white cake ever. So, I’m looking.
A friend on my Facebook suggested the new Cake Bar at Trinity Groves so I stopped by. It’s adorable and the cake is delicious.
Cake Bar has a killer white Wedding Cake but they also have traditional Chocolate and Strawberry cakes…Neopolitan, Key Lime, Carrot, Italian Creme and Red Velvet. And lots of others!
The owner, Tracy German, had been making cakes out of her house for 14 years. Word of mouth was so good that she could hardly keep up with the demand. Tracy makes traditional southern style ‘made from scratch’ cakes like the kind her mother baked when she was growing up in Georgia. I met her when I went in and she was nice as could be, and very busy!
Where is your favorite place to get yummy birthday cake? And what’s your favorite kind of cake? Are you a chocolate person? Or are you like me, and always looking for the perfect white cake? By the way, after years of looking, I have a recipe for white cake that I’ll be sharing.
Please tell me about your favorite cake place in the comments below because I only have 27 days left to look for my perfect birthday cake!
The Jenny Layne Bakery in Flower Mound makes amazing cakes. The decoration and dedication put into each cake is wonderful but then you bite in and the taste is so yummy. Check her out at http://www.thejennylaynebakery.com or on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/TheJennyLayneBakery

Kathleen Gardner at Cakes by Kathleen in Burleson is to die for! She did my wedding cake and numerous birthday cakes for us. The too later of my wedding cake was just as moist and delicious a year later when we took it out of the freezer on out anniversary as it was the day of the wedding!

Texas Star Bakery in Hurst. The almond flavor white cake with birthday icing. It’s fabulous!
Oh Sandra that sounds delish! Thank you, Jane
Hmmm that sounds like it just might be a winner Jennifer, thanks!

Thanks Cynthia!
Legacy Cakes in Grapevine is the best cake we’ve ever bought. People still talk about that cake. The owner won one of those cupcake shows. Tasty. Yum! We just did plain white because it was for a bunch of four year olds.
White cake is my favorite Jamie, thanks for the suggestion!
jane, I am the biggest cake FREaK in falls and have tried just about every little pop up shop in town. Stay away from the overpriced places like Cake Bar and Dallas affais… The cake is dry and too dense and the. Icing is so thin you can read a newspaper through it.
Classics are delicious cakes and my favorite is Creme de la cookie in Snyder plaza
Good luck!
You sound like a cake expert Joseph. I’m going to try it, thanks!
Delicious Cakes in Addison or C Star cakes!!!
Delicious Cakes is the right name Krystin!
I can vouch for C-Star cakes. They are stunning.
Okay Trista, I’ll have to try that, thanks:)
November is my birthday month too! Happy birthday wishes to you, Jane. My favorite cake is from Panini Bakery on Sherry Lane. The Strawberry Cream Cake . White cake, fresh strawberries, hard to go wrong.

Sugar Bee Sweets in Arlington is the best. Heidi and her staff are amazing!
I lived in Arlington and have never been there Caron. I’m going to go. thanks!
