The cake was more beautiful in person than we could've imagined, and so so delicious! We provided our own cake topper, which was delivered with the cake without incident, and everything was as we had discussed in our communications. Guests raved about how good the cake was! No regrets here, great cake experience that couldn't have been better!
GUEST




The cake was absolutely gorgeous and delivered without a hitch. The guests loved the little extra treats. I just wish I had been able to eat more!

We cannot stop praising European Bakery. We love them just on random days to stop by and get a treat...but their wedding service was unbelievable. It was affordable, professional, and friendly. They made sure to find out exactly what we wanted- and when we changed our mind, they made sure it happened. Everything looked flawless and tasted even better!
GUEST




European Bakery was amazing! Our cake not only LOOKED amazing, it TASTED amazing! They are easy and prompt to work with! I highly recommend them!
GUEST




Let me start by saying I was a little worried about not doing a cake tasting before we decided to use Helen's services. Since we were a 2.5 car ride from her it wasn't easy to make our schedules work to get up there.
After one cake tasting at another establishment that I was not happy with we decided to take a leap of faith and use European Bakery on its reviews.
We were beyond happy and blown away with the cake!!! We went on Helen's recommendation of a vanilla cake with butter cream frosting, lemon butter cream and raspberry preserve filled. It was a huge hit!
The cake was moist, full of flavor and beautiful! So many guests kept saying how "Oh my god delicious" it was!
Helen is so easy to work with and for a busy woman she is quick to get back to you... unlike some other bakeries who I did not hear from for days/weeks after contact.
Her cakes a delicious and her prices are VERY reasonable! Thank you Helen! We LOVED our cake.

I had heard great things about European Bakery before I went in for a tasting - and we were not disappointed. Helen was fantastic when we went in for a tasting and we were able to taste a full variety of different cakes and frosting options. We decided on two types and both were used for our cake. Our cake came out beautiful - exactly how I wanted it, and it tasted delicious. Much better tasting than fondant, yet still they can do a clean look if you wish that looks as good if not better. We did a basket weave design which was beautiful. I highly recommend European Bakery if you are looking for a Wedding Cake bakery in southern Maine!
GUEST




European Bakery did a tremendous job with our wedding cake. We worked with Helen and had a consultation when we visited Maine a few months before our wedding. Helen was great at making suggestions and listening to our preferences. I showed her several pictures of sample cakes to give her a sense of what I wanted for the decoration, and she and her staff turned it into reality perfectly! The cake was delicious, beautiful, delivered on time, and very reasonably priced. We're very happy to have chosen them as our baker!
GUEST




bottom line is the cakes are FABULOUS, but the bakery's customer service ethic could use some work. They came highly recommended, and I'd communicated with them a bit, but in the couple weeks before my wedding emails weren't answered. i called several times, and the line was frequently busy (just one line and no voicemail service). Twice they picked up, and two different employees gave me the same response: call back tomorrow when Helen is here. No offer to take my number and have her call me back, no other staff that could possibly help. At that point I was starting to think I needed to find another option, and told them so--indicating that this was not okay. When I emailed that to Helen, she did jump into action, providing me cell phones, etc. I'm glad I stuck with them, as the cupcakes were a big hit at the wedding, but I will credit European bakery for pushing me as close to bridezilla as I got. Get voicemail service! return phone calls! and maybe train a few more staff to discuss wedding orders. . .
GUEST




Our cake was perfect - it was styled exactly the way we wanted it and tasted even better than we could have imagined! We had a very stress-free cake tasting and had no issues in getting the cake to the venue on the day of the wedding.
GUEST




Our cake from European Bakery was absolutely delicious and beautiful as well. The only complaint we have with them is that our coordinator at the Union Bluff told us that the bakery delivered the cake very late – like, it arrived during the cocktail hour. This could have been a fluke Labor Day weekend traffic/busy wedding day situation, so I would still recommend them. The cake was delicious and much more reasonably priced than other options.
GUEST




Wonderful service and wonderful cake! European Bakery was delicious and the cake was beautiful. I would highly recommend using European Bakery for your wedding cake!
GUEST




Helen was wonderful. We scheduled a tasting with her a year in advance (we live 2000 miles away and we were there to visit). She kept all of her notes from that tasting to make ordering the cake super easy (only needed 2 weeks notice to order the cake). I had no idea what I wanted for flavors, cake decorations, etc when I went to see her for the tasting. She showed me a book of photos of cakes that she had done, and I fell in love with her tree and bird design (which ended up setting the theme for the whole wedding). We tasted numerous cakes, and couldn't decide between three flavors - so Helen said we should just do all three! So we did! We had 1 tier chocolate raspberry, 1 tier chocolate mocha, and the bottom tier was white cake with lemon buttercream, a thin ribbon of raspberry and fresh blueberries - yum! Delivery charge was a bit expensive ($95) but well worth it. Helen did not try to up-sell us. She gave us estimates for different sized tiers, including sheet cakes or not including sheet cakes, how many each would serve, etc. Fabulous overall. No disappointment here!!

The European Bakery has always been my favorite bakery to grab delicious pastries and truffles. I was shocked to discover that their wedding cakes are actually very affordable. We selected their carrot cake with cream cheese and buttercream frosting. It was such a crowd hit at our wedding, even our dinner caterer couldn't stop raving about it.
GUEST




My wife and I hired them to make our cake for our May 28th wedding.
The wedding day came, and when we entered our own reception we were greeted by the WRONG CAKE! The European Bakery was extremely negligent in the fact that they delivered some other poor couple's cake to our reception.
Nothing the EB can do will ever make up for the fact that our pictures and memories are ruined because of their inability to pay attention to details. Beware.
Vendor response to review
This was our first mistake ever in 21 years so no one really needs to be worried since it will never happen again. We remade the other couples cakes and we apologized to you and gave all of your money back. We know this can not make up for the mistake but it is wrong of you to be so negative towards us. We will always remember this and we do feel bad but I am sure others or even yourselves have made a mistake once in your life. No one is truly perfect in this world except God. We did everything we could to make it up to you so maybe you should find it in your hearts to forgive us and not be so negative.

Helen at the European Bakery is fantastic!!! Our wedding cake was beautiful, unique, and DELICIOUS! What more could you want for your wedding cake?! She really works with you to design exactly what you want, we were thrilled and got many compliments. She even design a special surprise grooms cake for my Star Trek loving husband - a 3 dimensional Enterprise ship - he was psyched!
GUEST




My cake was so delicious!! Cake wasn't important to my husband, but that is one tradition I didn't want to go without. We chose a marble cake with mocha buttercream filling. My only regret is I didn't get enough of it.
GUEST




If you want a simple light cake, this is the place for you. If you are looking classic french baking ala martha stewart magazine it's not.
The staff was so NICE it was as though they were made from sugar! They were very helpful in the tasting and straight forward about what they offered. With there prices you really can't go wrong! We opted for a swiss dot round cake and it was elegant and delightful. We also order mini whoopie pies that very good.
GUEST




The service was amazing, the cake was amazing, the presentation was amazing and delivery was prompt.
I can't wait for my birthday to come so I can request one of their cakes again.
Above and beyond any other we tried... Don't miss this one.
GUEST




I would highly recommend The European Bakery. Helen was so great to work with. Their cakes are delicious and beautiful. They are very flexible and very helpful. They are willing to work with you to make everything just the way you want it!!
GUEST




Helene at European Bakery was the best! We tried all different types of cake & frosting combinations flavors to get the perfect match for our wedding cake....All the while she just sat smiled, was very patient & waited on our decision.
We wanted anchors on our cake to match the design on the front of our invitation. Helen's cake decorating skills were a perfect match, as if she had designed the anchor originally.
We would highly recommend her bakery to anyone!!
GUEST




Helen was a pleasure to work with, responsive and professional. We enjoyed our cake tasting so much that we had three different flavors in our cake! The cake itself was delicious, but I could not help but be disappointed by the way it looked. We had given them a picture to try to replicate and paid them extra to do it. They said they could reproduce the cake in the picture, but the result looked somewhat sloppy and haphazard. I have no doubt that it was a difficult design to execute, but I wish they had let us know they could not complete the design so we could pick something different.
GUEST




Helen from the European Bakery was so sweet (no pun intended) and the cake was just what I wanted, both visually and taste-wise (yummy chocolate raspberry ganache). She was able to use cage-free eggs, organic sugar, and it was delicious! Even as we were eating it three days later!
Happy wedding!
GUEST




I would highly recommend The European Bakery. Their cakes was absolutely delicious and so beautiful. They are very flexible and very helpful. You absolutely will not be disappointed!
GUEST




They were recommended through a family friend and I couldn't have been happier. The cake was beautiful and delicious!
GUEST




Absolutely wonderful and the cake was delicious. We were able to taste test the all the cakes as well as take home the left overs...which my husband loved. We ended up getting the 3 tier square cake. The bottom layer was an almond cake with raspberry ganache and the top two tiers were carrot cake. The outside was a champagne colored buttercream frosting. They also prepared a delicious flat sheet cake seperate from the actually wedding cake. That was chocolate with chocolate ganache in the middle. Amazing and very delicious. They drove the cake all the way up to Bangor from Falmouth....and it survied the trip.
GUEST




We had a wonderful experience with European Bakery. Helen was great answering all our questions and doing a fantastic job with the cake tasting. We honestly couldn't decide on one cake flavor, so we had three! The cake was beautiful and so yummy! We do regreat that we didn't get any of the chocolate peanutbutter layer!
In addition to doing our wedding cake, Helen also made a groom's cake. I went in a special request for a Jack Daniel's shaped cake. It came out unbelievable! My groom was totally surprised and very pleased. The cake was a work of art. It was delicious.
Thanks European Bakery!
GUEST




This was the best cake I've ever had. All my guest loved it and I received so many compliments on its design. Eurpoean Bakery did a wonderful job and were very helpful is suggesting what type of flavors would pair well together. Our topper even tasted great 1 year later!
GUEST




Not only did my wedding cake look phenomenal but it tasted great too. They replicated a picture of the cake we wanted, and it looked even better than the picture!
GUEST




Our cake was soooo delicious! It was also beautiful! The guests raved about the cake all night!
GUEST




I was very impressed with European Bakery. Everything was exactly how we had talked about and it was delicous cake.
GUEST




My aunt made pies for our guests so I used European Bakery to make a small ceremonial cake for just the two of us. It was beautifully decorated the way I wanted and it tasted much better than other places I tried, but it did not stack up to homemade pies. It didn't have as much flavor as I would have liked but it was very reasonably priced.
GUEST




I loved our cake! Helen was great to work with and within our budget. She even made carmel apple favors for us.
GUEST




Our cake from European Bakery was a layer of vanilla cake with cream cheese filling, fresh blueberries & strawberries, another layer was carrot cake with cream cheese filling and the third tier was chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling and raspberry preserves!!
It was VERY reasonably priced, absolutely beautiful and we were told that it tasted amazing!! We were so busy talking and dancing at our reception that we didn't get a chance to eat a piece of our own wedding cake! We'll be back for our first anniversary to order a mini-version of our cake for just us to enjoy.
They're best reached by phone, just ask for Helen. I would highly recommend them to any future Maine brides!
GUEST




Our cake was even more beautiful than I could have pictured. Helen was very responsive, flexible with our last minute changes, and our guests raved about the cake.
GUEST




The cake was absolutely beautiful and scrumptious! We would go back to European bakery for any event in a heartbeat!
GUEST




Helen from European Bakery made choosing our wedding cake extremely easy. She is very friendly and helpful, and our cake turned out brilliantly. My wife was more concerned with the cake than myself, but she was extremely pleased with the options we were given, and the price was even with competitors.
GUEST




Tasty cake!! They worked with our budget creating an exquisite cake to show and a sheet cake for eating to be more cost effective. Were able to create a few different flavors for us. Even the event staff said it was the tastiest cake they had all summer!
Delicious and wonderful baked goods for any event! I can never go in without buying a special treat for myself. The dark chocolate cake is especially deadly. Yum!
They do a great job. The cakes always turn out amazing!
