Outstanding my family and I love them. Very moist flavorful and filling. We purchase 4pcs of slice cake tonight. One slice of cake was split between two people.
Loved them for years. My favorites their carrot cake ( real carrots, cinnamon and crunchy walnuts) and their red velvet cupcake (moist, rich, cocoa-infused, and topped with cream cheese frosting ). Weekly sale on cupcakes. Half-off cupcakes on Wednesdays. Dangerous to the hips.
As you all know, I have a serious sweet tooth. My friend’s birthday is Sunday and I happened to be in town for work and wanted to have an early celebration with her. I found Favor Desserts and decided to check them out. The service was excellent. They had friendly staff, a clean bakery, and adequate parking. I couldn’t decide what to select so I picked up 4 pieces to share. The cake was delicious! They also had cupcakes in the case, but I didn’t try any of them. The five flavor pound cake was flavorful, dense, but yet still moist which is difficult to achieve in a pound cake. I love icing and all the slices had plenty. I know you are asking “why 4 stars?” The bakery uses Clover. I was able to check-in, but the staff did not know how to use the app. It appears their loyalty card is through Clover. Employees should learn to use the app. I love a good loyalty program, but it doesn’t matter if it can’t be used properly. Other than that minor thing, I have no complaints. I’ll be stopping in the next time l’m in Durham to visit their new store and get some delicious cake!
Cake bakery that is a true treat. Cakes are just so moist and flavorful. The flavors are both simple and complex at the same time. They regularly have a variety of cake slices and cupcakes available. And of course they sell full cakes as well which can be ordered. The carrot cake is my personal favorite but I have had a slice that I haven’t loved. If you haven’t been, this is a must visit type of place.
Ist timer. Had a slice of lemon cake and German chocolate. Delicious! Would have liked a bit more lemon flavor in the icing (that's just me). I'm coming back for the daily specials and to try the other flavors. He also custom makes cakes.
