Handshoe Cakes And Cookies - Republic

This was our first time trying this bakery. We typically go through a different one, but the owner was on vacation this week, so we decided to try somewhere new. I'm so glad we did, as we will now be switching the bakery we use to this one!We got cake, cupcakes, and cookies for my sister's baby shower, which was horror themed. The cake was strawberry swirl with strawberry mousse and fresh strawberries in the middle. The cupcakes were lemon with raspberry and chocolate with peanut butter. All of the flavors were amazing, especially the cake. My husband hates cake, has tried it from every place we've bought from and has never liked it until now! He ate multiple slices. The cupcakes were really good too. I like fruity flavors in cake, so the chocolate and peanut butter wasn't for me, but everyone else loved it! The cookies were great as well! I thought perhaps, at first glance, it could be too much icing, but it was balanced perfectly! My favorite thing was that I had ordered on, what I would consider to be, short notice and she still worked with me and created such amazing work. She even added a few touches that I was scared to ask for when ordering, which shows that she truly pays attention to detail and cares :

These are the absolute GREATEST baked goods we have found anywhere. Their gluten free selection is AWESOME!! We will be back many more times and are planning to order Graduation baked goods from these AMAZING artists of all things deliciously baked!

Handshoe delivered some cookies to my unit for Christmas, and they were honestly some of the best cookies I’ve ever had! They are thick, soft and fluffy, and dare I say…just like my grandmother’s.

Best Gluten-free cookies I have ever had! Totally recommend!

I had a baker back out of my cake last minute and handshoe cakes and cookies came through for me with less than a weeks notice! Not only was the cake exactly what I wanted it was unbelievably delicious! Lisa is a life savior and I highly recommend! Thank you again for everything!
