Overall
  • With so many great bakeries in downtown Salt Lake there is no reason to have a bad customer service (and dry cake) experience at this one.
  • It's an excellent place to get gifty goodies
  • I have tried a few things from this wonderful pastry shop and everything has been fantastic.
Food
  • Edible Art Beautiful Wedding Cakes!...They make the most beautiful cakes in town!...The flowers are gorgeous!...The cakes and frostings are wonderful.
  • I was very disappointed by the cake.
  • the crust was gorgeous and the perfect texture.
  • Best bakery without question!
  • I love Backer's Pastry Shop!
  • There was also a charming selection of aprons.
  • So far, we have not found a decent bakery in Salt Lake City.
  • Backer's makes the best best best birthday cakes on the planet....The cupcakes are delicious, and the quality is consistent.
  • Wonderful Bakery!...This bakery is the best.
  • Best Pastries
  • They have the best pastries that I've ever tasted.
  • The Best Cake Ever
  • was told by a co-worker about Mrs. Backers meat pies being even better than Morrison's --
  • Yummy Chocolate Raspberry Cake...I was wrong however, the cake was delicious.
  • The cream cheese/buttercream frosting is delightful.
  • The Best Cake..... Period
  • The beautiful wedding cakes were decorated by him.
  • This is the best bakery by far in Utah --
  • they only use fresh ingredients in their products here.
  • Traditional cakes with Old-World style are the specialty of this family-run Salt Lake City institution....This small bakery on South Temple has been making decadent cakes and cookies since 1941....If you're looking for a traditional floral cake with simple designs, this is the place for you....The frosting is creamy, not grainy like some supermarket cakes.
  • This is by far the best bakery in Salt Lake City.
Service
  • With so many great bakeries in downtown Salt Lake there is no reason to have a bad customer service (and dry cake) experience at this one.
  • The service was excellent and they had such a huge variety
  • The employees are always happy and very nice.
Ambience
  • though the flower decorations were beautiful, they did not make up for the terrible taste, dryness and skimpy cake layers I received.
  • The details of the decoration were beautiful -
  • Better still the decorations are always incredibly beautiful and unique to anywhere else.
  • Walk in and you're greeted by a glorious smell of fresh baked sweets.
  • The best part about this bakery is their impeccable presentation.
Value
  • Not cheap in price but well worth it!
