We were so happy to have found this place. Yaneli was very friendly n helpful, we told her the design we wanted n she made it perfectly, their prices are very reasonable n they delivered the cake to our dinner venue on time. I will definitely order another cake in the near future.

Are you interested?

We used Lincoln Bakery for our Wedding cake since we booked our reception at The Chadwick. We were so impressed with how beautiful our cake turned out! We were able to choose 2 flavors to sample before making our final choice and boy did we get big samples! We got 2 large, full size cakes to taste and they were delicious! We enjoyed the cake so much, we even used Lincoln Bakery to make a wedding cake cupcake dress for the bridal shower! They offered the most cupcakes in the cake that we could find, had the most beautiful design, and were the most reasonably priced! Our guests raved about both cakes! When making our choice for our wedding cake, we combined a few of their examples to make something that we both loved and it turned out beautiful – with the exact design and color scheme we wanted! We would definitely recommend Lincoln Bakery for any of your dessert and wedding cake needs! - Nathan and Becky

Dottie was great to work with during the whole process. My husband and his cousin went to pickup the cake and cupcakes and a couple hours after they left I received a call that the girls at the bakery forgot to give them the stand for the cupcakes. Dottie saved the day by sending the delivery guy up to the reception venue and to setup the cupcakes. My husband had asked the girls 2 times for the stand and they ensured it was within the boxes even though it wasn’t. The cupcakes and cake were delicious and I would order from them again. As for the two girls who caused an issue, I hope their work ethic will improve for future clients.

Our cake was beautiful. Seeing the pictures/description at the store did not compare to how amazing it was to see in person. The cake matched our wedding colors of red and gold perfectly (gold cake with red roses rising up the tier and flower petals on the cake). They are flexible in decorating and will build the cake of your dreams with your own decorations! (saves a little money). We were also amazed by size and taste of the sample cakes that are provided during the initial consultations. The samples are huge! Thanks for adding to our wonderful wedding day Lincoln Bakery!

Our cake was included with the reception, so I was initially concerned, but after our tasting I was sold! We had the almond cake with white chocolate mousse filling and it was delicious! They allow you to pick up two decently sized cakes to try, at no cost and they were able to closely replicate the picture I gave them.

Everyone.... I mean everyone loved the cake we chose for the wedding. Tasting exactly as the sample cake did, and looked much better than the picture. I would strongly recommend this bakery to all my friends and family for any of their future events and get-togethers!

We used Lincoln Bakery for our wedding cake through our wedding venue. Our wedding venue is partnered with Lincoln Bakery, so the venue took care of the order for us and made sure that the cake arrived and was placed in the ballroom on the correct day at the correct time. All we had to do was provide the bakery with the ribbon that went around the cake at each level.

The cake looked exactly like the style we picked out, and it looked wonderful. Our guests loved the taste of the cake - we had a spice cake with butter cream filling - and also admired the details of the frosting flowers that were placed at the top.

I have always loved the baked goods at Lincoln Bakery in Bellevue. We had a very unique and memorable experience when picking out our cake, but we laugh about it now. If you set a meeting with them, remember that you are at a local bakery in Bellevue. All in all though, the cake was beautiful and delicious.

We absolutely loved our wedding cake! Working with the staff at Lincoln Bakery was so easy. We sampled three different flavor combos for our wedding cake. After our tasting, we picked one combination, but after we got home and pondered it for a bit, we decided to change it and I am so glad we did. It was super easy to just call the bakery and have the cake flavor changed. I know that wedding cakes can be expensive but I thought that our cake was very reasonably priced for a guest count of 200! We couldn't have been any happier with how our cake turned out - from the flavor to the presentation - it was beautiful. I would definitely recommend them for your wedding cake!

Lincoln bakery did an amazing job matching the color of my dresses with the cake. The vanilla cream filled cake is the best cake I have ever had. It was so moist.

Best bakery! We only wanted a small cake, since we served Tiramisu for dessert at the reception. Instead of 3 tiers, we had 2. But, they decorated the cake just like the picture in their catalog. BEAUTIFUL! Each layer was white cake with buttercream icing. But, the layers had different fillings. One had raspberry. The other, apricot. DELICIOUS! I'm still eating the cake! And, yes, we saved the topper. Best, smoothest, icing.

I was recently married in the Omni William Penn Grand Ballroom, Lincoln Bakery was the company I selected to make our wedding cake. This was a simple decision for me as I have grown up only celebrating my birthday with Lincoln Bakery cakes. We got married this June, and I had my cake testing August of 2012. Yes nearly a year prior to my wedding. We met Gerri on a Saturday morning, where we showed her a picture of the buttercream icing cake we had wanted. She worked with us to create the perfect method for serving our guests the best cake. We selected two separate flavors for various tiers, both were amazing. Gerri worked to create virtually two wedding cakes, a display cake with one layer to cut, and the exact same cake in the back. This knowledge ensures each guest receives a five layered piece of cake! After that meeting, the only contact I had with the bakery was a few weeks prior to ensure everything was on track! Bravo, wonderful work.

Our wedding cake was beautiful, and delicious! Lincoln Bakery also did my cupcakes for my bridal shower. They made a daisy out of buttercream on top to match my centerpieces and they tasted awesome!

Lincoln Bakery has a contract with the vendor I used (The Chadwick), and they were great! We pick the flavors we wanted to try and have 2 full cakes as samples. We had to split it up and share it with our families! The cake was delicious at our wedding, and we even had some people ask who the baker was so that they could use them for their wedding!

We ordered a three tier hexagon cake for our wedding. We brought a picture of a cake that we liked and they brought our picture to life. It turned out beautiful. They gave us suggestions on what looked chic and classic on cakes. They provided us with two whole cakes to take home after the original taste testing. This was a nice way to have our families try the cake as well. We chose white almond for 2 layers and chocolate for the other layer. It was fantastic. I would recommend Lincoln Bakery to any newly engaged couple. They were a pleasure to work with.

Our cake was provided through our venue. We got to look through a picture book and select which cake we wanted. We found one we liked, asked if we could make a few slight changes, and they said yes. Our cake was perfect! And it tasted just as good. We got chocolate with chocolate mousse filling. Yum!

We got our cake from Lincoln Bakery through The Chadwick. When we went to pick up our samples we received two full sized cakes to taste. We ended up going with the red velvet with buttercream. All of our guests raved about how delicious our cake was. The decorations were beautiful as well. If we ever need a cake in the future, we will definitely get it from Lincoln Bakery.

We went to four different places for cake tastings and my husband and I had no problem deciding on Lincoln Bakery. They were far and away the tastiest cakes! We ended up with a red velvet cake with cream cheese filling and buttercream icing and it was so delicious and the design was exactly like I had envisioned! Plus, as a sentimental bonus, my parents' wedding cake was from Lincoln as well so they loved joining us there for the tasting. :) I can't wait to have the rest on my one-year anniversary!!!!

It was nice having Lincoln Bakery do our wedding cake.We had always enjoyed taking the 45 minute drive to taste their delicious cakes.The 4 tier cake that I had them make me turned out fabulous.They made the design on it that we had agreed upon and decorated it beautifully.The flavors really worked well together and it was fresh and moist.Our guests weren't even able to finish it all and we kept most of the top and are saving it for our anniversary.I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.

We used Lincoln Bakery for our wedding cake because it was apart of our wedding package with the venue. It was amazing! We had white cake with almond extract and the raspberry filling. Now only was the cake delicious, it was beautiful. We got many great comments on how everyone enjoyed the cake. They were so easy to work with and gave us two reasonably sized cakes for our tasting. I would highy reccomend this vendor!

We used Lincoln Bakery for our cake as a part of our reception package, the cake was amazing, they are one of my favorite bakeries. They provide great mini cakes for tasting with many different better and filling options. We provided them with a picture of what we wanted the decoration on it to be and it turned out beautiful and just like the picture.

Lincoln Bakery was part of a wedding package from my wedding reception location. I was able to bring in a photo from a website and they created exactly what I wanted. The cake itself tasted fantastic. I love icing and have to say that their buttercream was superb. My guests really enjoyed it and I can't wait until my one year to eat it again ;)

Our cake was delicious and beautiful! It was so moist and everyone enjoyed it! My only issue was that we choose a cake where we had to supply ribbon and they did not use our ribbon. It at least semi matched our colors so no one but us noticed. I would still highly recommend! We tasted at several locations and they were by far the best tasting!

We ordered our cake from Lincoln bakery after trying cake from several other bakeries. By far, Lincoln bakery had the most flavorful and moist cakes. We selected almond w/raspberry filling, and chocolate w/chocolate pudding filling. Guests raved about the cake. They decorated it exactly as we agreed and it was beautiful! Lincoln bakery offers a great value with a superior quality product. Highly recommend!

Lincoln is the best bakery in Pittsburgh. They still have their old bakery in Bellevue which give them a small business feel. It's refreshing. They will match any design you want! Amazing flavors as well! Raspberry filling is to die for!

My cake was white cake with chocolate mousse filling and buttercream icing and not only was it beautiful but it tasted amazing! I ate it for breakfast the next 2 days after the wedding! Everyone was saying how when they have gone to weddings in the past, the cakes have looked good but did not taste very good, my cake was both gorgeous and yummy. Would highly recommend.

We loved our wedding cake! We had a beach themed wedding and asked for a custom beach themed wedding cake. They were very accommodating and even allowed us to provide our own decorations to place on the cake, including a unique cake topper and sugar-based sea glass and sea shells. As all couples do, we had a specific vision for what we wanted our cake to look like and Lincoln Bakery executed that vision perfectly! When we saw our cake for the first time at the reception, we couldn't believe how well it turned out and it was incredibly tasty as well. We had lots of compliments from all our guests on how good it was!

I thought that the cake both looked wonderful and also tasted delicious. The only complaint I had was that it was very difficult to get a hold of them. I called several times with no response. They were very willing to do whatever you wanted and the cake looked exactly as I requested. wonderful job!

We bought our wedding cake from Lincoln Bakery. We had a general idea and a few pictures. We chose the white almond cake with buttercream and raspberry filling. The cake was exceptional. Everyone commented how fresh the cake tasted and the decorations on the cake were perfect. We could not have asked for a better cake!

I thought Lincoln bakery was great. When we went to pick out the cake they had a lot more options than just the website photos and the woman was very helpful b/c i didn't really know what I wanted and changed my mind a few times in the hour we sat there. She was really patient. The cake tasted amazing. We got chocolate with fresh strawberries in the middle. They seemed like a pretty good value as far as wedding cakes go. The base of our cake was crumbling a bit by the time we got to cut it. I am not really sure if there is anything that can be done about that, it was a pretty big cake. we ordered a cake for 135 and we had 127 guests and at the end of the night there wasn't any extra so you may want to order more slices than you think if you want a snack for later.

I thought it was a bit expensive and they didnt offer many options but had what I wanted. At the consultation they gave you two small cakes to test and allowed you to take them home. The cake was delicious!!! So I cant complain about that...just a little bit above my budget.

The wedding cake itself was GREAT and it was Free since it came with out package at The Chadwick. The design was exactly what we asked for and the cake tasted great. The only downside was dealing with the people who worked at the front of the bakery. They were rude and even lost our ribbon for the cake. Luckily we had extra and was able to get it to Lincoln Bakery quickly. Other than that, everything was great.

I loved my wedding cake! It was beautiful and delicious! They even let me have 3 different layers...red velvet with cream cheese filling, chocolate with cherry filling and almond with raspberry cream filling. I would recommend the almond with rasp cream filling the best! The service wasn't the greatest. When planning my cake they were short and rude and tried to rush us out!

The cake tasted great and the group from Lincoln was easy to work with. The bakery has limited designs which meant we basically ordered a white cake and were responsible for all of our own decorations. Overall, a positive experience.

Professionalism of the people in the bakery were very poor. I was not thrilled with the attitude I received from some of the employees. However, the cake was perfect! I loved the cake, the taste of it was great and the decorations was fantastic! I was very pleased with the cake!

Delicious cake, awesome variety and quality of filling and batter flavors, beautiful decorations, and a terrific price! We loved everything about our cake - it was beautiful and not over-priced. It also had a variety of fillings, from chocolate mousse on one layer to fresh strawberries on another. We received tons of compliments on the cake. The staff isn't the friendliest, as the bakery is always busy and it didn't seem they passed phone messages on very well, but they were very generous with the tastings (a mini cake of each flavor we wanted to try!) and made such a nice cake!

Although my wedding cake was delicious I feel my cake could have been presented a little better. Colors did not match and what not.

I go there for all of my cakes so it was no question who I would use as my bakery for my wedding cake. My cake was absolutely gorgeous!!! And it arrived at my venue on time. There was 1 problem, I was supposed to have strawberry filling & there were no strawberries. The cake was still delicious but I did call the bakery to notify them the following week and they refunded me back $50 for the mix up. Other than that the cake was great!

My wedding cake from Lincoln Bakery was part of my package at my reception location. I was extremely satisfied with my cake- it looked beautiful and tasted great! They provided many design options, colors, and flavors. My only complaint is that I had to visit the bakery to deliver ribbon I wanted on my cake and the service I received was insulting. The women working the counter were simply unfriendly and rude. They made my sister and I feel like we were inconveniencing them by just being in the bakery. The woman who helped me was annoyed that I was there to drop off the ribbon and seemed put off by having to take down my information. I wish I hadn't had to visit the bakery but in the end, the cake was great and I look forward to eating more of it on my 1 year anniversary.

Our cake was included with our venue (Gateway Clipper). It was difficult to schedule an appointment for tasting that worked well with our schedule since we were coming in from out of town. When we did arrive for out tasting, the staff working at the bakery we not very friendly and we waited a long time to be seen for out appointment. We did get to take home two whole cakes from our tasting, however, which was great to share with family and friends. We were told to bring in our own ribbon for the cake. When we saw our cake on the day of the wedding, the ribbon had changed colors due to coming into contact with the frosting. So, I do not recommend spending much money on matching ribbon. I had purchased our from David's Bridal to match the color exactly, but it looked nothing like it on the cake. Other than the ribbon, the cake looked just like we had wanted. Our cake did taste fantastic, and we received many compliments.

The cake was delicious and looked great. However, trying to make an appointment with the wedding coordinator was a pain. Even when I had an appointment, she forgot and was had another couple there. It made me wonder if I would even have a wedding cake for my reception. They were the best value around and I really didn't have a choice. If I had a ton of money, I would have went to Bethel Bakery. Everything turned out fine in the end, but this bakery ended up adding stress I did not need.

Let me start by saying, my cake was DELICIOUS...the bakery makes wonderful cake and had no problem accomodating the design I wanted. However, their customer service skills are lacking. All of the people I dealt with throughout this process was rude and very short on the phone. If it werent for the delicious cake, I would not have wanted to deal with them. But it was worth it, it looked and tasted amazing.

If there was a black spot for our wedding it was NO DOUBT our cake. To come in Saturday to ready for our day only to be told our cake was destroyed beyond repair was something I don't even have an adjective to describe. God bless our hall for doing what they could to cover the collapse of the entire back of our cake but it was really irreparable. And Lincoln bakery's response to us after our wedding was really just AWFUL they would do no more than refund $100 lousy dollars because "the guests still received a piece of cake" they didn't care that the back of our cake fell victim to a cake landslide and that the front was covered in structure cracks all through the fondant and decoration all they felt we deserved was a generic typed letter response and a lousy $100. NOT ACCEPTABLE but I was too upset about it to drag out an argument (I regret my decision about that now) I wish I would have forced them to be as accountable as they should have been. If you could see the pictures of what was left of my destroyed cake you'd understand.

My husband and I love Lincoln Bakery's donuts, so we were really excited to work with them for our wedding cake. Since my then-fiance', now-husband lives in the Baltimore area and I was in Pittsburgh, I was the one who met with them and tried to get what we wanted. We had picked about five different cakes that we both liked, and when I went in I planned to get the one we liked best. However, Lincoln Bakery does not do fondant - at ALL - and every cake we liked had fondant on it. The woman I met with, Geri, was extremely curt and rude during our entire meeting, after coming out fifteen minutes later than when we were supposed to meet. I was so flustered that I ended up picking one of our cakes without any fondant, creating literally an entirely bare white buttercream cake. When I got home I was so upset that I cried, and my mother called and chose a different cake for me that I liked, but didn't think my fiance' would like. Geri was again, extremely rude to my mother, and exclaimed, "I TOLD her not to pick that one, I TOLD her it was a huge mistake," etc. etc, even though she simply sat there and tapped her pen at me until I made a decision. The cake that I chose had brooches in the center of ribbons, and though I was told the brooches wouldn't be damaged at all, they broke the pins off the brooches so now they're useless (thank GOD my mother talked me out of using my deceased grandmother's brooches to make it more special). Though the cake ended up being beautiful (and pretty delicious, at least the tiny bite I got of it when we cut our cake), but working with them was the most horrible experience I've ever had, and I will never use them again for a special-occasion cake, no matter how delicious it was.

Very disappointed with our cake! We didn't ask for anything difficult on the decoration side. I just feel like they did what they wanted with it. The cake, instead of being white and black ruffled ended up half white (their white buttercream) half gray!.. which didn't even match our colors at all. If they knew the black would not work (they are the professional bakers they should know this stuff) they should have called me so I could have told them just to do it all in the white buttercream. We spent a lot of $ on our cake topper and the focus was definitely taken away from it. The cake was also supposed to be chocolate with chocolate mousse filling. We cut into it during the cake cutting and it looked red velvet with a buttercream filling...part of the cake did have chocolate mousse filling though.

Are you interested?
