What People Are Saying About Moeller's Bakery

Featured Review

In Short – Some may think that bigger is better, but Moeller's proves otherwise. Serving selective yet delicious cakes, cookies and pastries for more than 70 years, Moeller's excels in baking up some exquisite delights. The favorites include the German chocolate cake, an incredible carrot cake, strawberry cake, homemade raisin cake and Italian cream cake. Among the pastries, orange and cinnamon rolls, flour-dusted dinner rolls and cheese pockets prevail.

disapointed

iI ordered a chocolate Stars Wars cake for my son's 4th birthday party. It was the worsst cake we have ever tasted. Cake was dry and disgusting, not to mention the lack of creativity. Would have done better at Kroger for half the price.

Moeller's Bakery! What can I say! Being a USMC wife I

have lived in many states and visited dozens of bakeries. Moeller's has the most delicious baked items I have ever had the pleasure of eating. The Danish and petit fours are the best!

Disappointed

by Tw at Citysearch

I ordered a half sheet cake for a graduation party and was so disappointed in bakery staff and quality of cake. Upon picking up the cake at the bakery I found staff to be borderline rude to most waiting customers and generally apathetic. The decoration on my cake was ho hum and the script was barely legible. The cake itself was significantly dry and the frosting overly sweet and a bit hard. We ended up discarding almost half of the cake due to lack of interest due to reviews by our party guests.

I won't be purchasing a cake from this bakery again any time soon. The grocery stores will have my business back!

Don't write a check or your identity could be stolen!

I have bought goods from this bakery for many years. In November 2010, I wrote a check for the purchase of a birthday cake. Someone working at Moellers stole my identity and wrote counterfeit checks to the toll of $1500 several weeks before Christmas! Don't write checks to Moeller's or this too could happen to you.
