Please, this bakery is as good as any. Get a life. Yes, they are rude, expensive, and stubborn, but they are in a mean neighborhood, so what do you expect? You get what you pay for.

My fiance and I recently went to Bredenbeck's about their wedding cakes. We had an appointment but we stood up and waited downstairs in the bakery for about 20 minutes or more before being taken back outside and upstairs to a second floor for the consultation/cake tasting. They were cordial but not much else. Kind of flat. I was not that comfortable. There are a lot of designs to choose from and a lot of flavors but I would say BEWARE - everything you choose will be a la carte!! The flavor, the icing, the size, it was just problematic for us especially if the person doesn't have a level of interest to help you decide. And if you have your own ideas, it could cost you a small fortune. $1,200 for a cake for 200 people (not including delivery). We felt it was not worth the inflated price for what we wanted and didn't feel excited about the place doing our wedding cake..

Bredenbeck's Bakery has terrible customer service! Their cakes are too sweet and they do not pay attention to detail when it comes to a customers design request. They have become complacent. When a cake is prepared incorrectly a customer should receive compensation for the error or a new cake, I received neither(and it was promised). That is what happens when you take your clientele for granted. Now I will NOT support the Bredenbeck establishment, any time I get to share this with people I WILL. There are too many other excellent bakeries to choose from
