FantasiCakes Review and Giveaway

August 30, 2012 by Erin

I love, love, love desserts. I know. Surprise! Here’s another shocker. I don’t love any desserts. I love good desserts. Here’s where FantasiCakes comes in. FantasiCakes is a mail order handcrafted (aka homemade) pastry and bakery shop. Did you read that? Mail order! Bakery! Pastry! All of my favorite things! And check out what they have.

This Triple Chocolate Bundt Cake is calling my name. It was created with the chocolate lover in mind. It is made from their moist chocolate cake and a generous amount of high quality chocolate chips. It’s topped off with a chocolate icing to drizzle on. Yes, please!

This may be the best of both worlds – The Marble Coffee Cake. Can’t decide if you want chocolate or vanilla? Why not have some of both! This is made with their vanilla and chocolate cake batters swirled together in this amazing coffee cake. Made from scratch everyday using fresh eggs, Madagascar Bourbon vanilla creamy sour cream and a generous amount of high quality chocolate chips on top. Sounds perfect to me!

I think this Raspberry Tart just screams summer. Made with sweet raspberry filling covered in a shortbread crust. I about fell over when I read that! This is next on my list to try!

Don’t they look amazing? And there are so many flavors to chose from.

Their online menu is amazing. But I was so sad I didn’t live in the Los Angeles are when I saw what you could pick up from one of their stores.

My kids and I had a hard time choosing what amazing treat we wanted to try. My daughter has declared she doesn’t like chocolate. Gasp! But it was pretty easy to chose which one we wanted as soon as I clicked on the Coffee Cake tab. Doesn’t this Cinnamon Coffee Cake look delicious?!?!

It arrived in amazing condition! It was double packed and sealed for freshness!

We cut into it immediately. I mean really, it looked so good!

One thing right off that I loved was the icing. It came in a packet that you microwaved fro just a little while and then drizzled on the coffee cake. I was expecting a powdered sugar and water type frosting that ran down the side of the cake and blobbed (yes, that’s a word) all over the plate. It didn’t! Instead, I drizzled it on and it hardened a little. Not a lot so it was gross. Just perfect so it was awesome! (It’s the little things that impress me!)

My daughter took the first bite (because, of course, I was taking pictures of the coffee cake) and she started moaning and giving me the thumbs up. I quickly put down my camera and cut me a piece. I have to agree with my daughter, it was delicious!

What are my thoughts on FantasiCakes? I think the Cinnamon Coffee Cake was one of the best coffee cakes I’ve ever purchased. It was moist and the cinnamon tasted like a high quality cinnamon. The frosting added a nice touch. It was fantastic! And we ate it in 2 days. Holy smokes!

What am I going to do next? I’m totally ordering a Raspberry Tart =o)
