Reviews for Gambino's Bakeries

Gambino's did a wonderful job on our wedding cake & groom's cake. Jackie Sue worked with us to customize each layer of the cake exactly how we wanted it. And the groom's cake was pretty tricky, but they made a Big Lebowski cake look really great! We got a lot of positive feedback on both cakes! The price was on the lower end of the cake vendors we researched, and considering the high quality of the service, I'd say we got a pretty darn good deal!

One of our wedding cakes came from Gambino's. What a treat! Too bad none was left to take home. Loved their service and pricing was reasonable.

We used Gambino's Bakery in Baton Rouge, La and the cakes were provided through our venue The Gatehouse. Our wedding cake and groom's cake were sooo delicious!! Very fresh and beautiful! We got many compliments on how good it was!

Gambino's did our wedding cake and groom's cake. They made exactly what we wanted for both cakes. (We altered the groom's cake a bit cased on an example they had, and it came out the way we had envisioned it.) I went to several bridal shows, and Gambino's tasted consistently good for the traditional wedding cake flavor we wanted. It tasted even better at the wedding!

You can spend twice as much but you will never have a cake as good as the one from Gambino's. It was delicious and JackieSue was very easy to work with. She took a very hands on approach and even helped us incorporate a design from a photo. The cakes on display don't even give a hint at what they can do. This is the third wedding cake that they have made for our family and each was great.

The wedding venue staff was unable to set-up the actual table before Gambino's arrived to deliver the bride's cake (almond cake with strawberry cream cheese filling). Instead of waiting until the table was set-up (they technically had a two hour delivery window), they just left the cake sitting on another table and told us that we would have to move it ourselves and left the premises. When I found out about this, I went downstairs to see if I could help, only to discover that the icing on the middle tier was torn and you could see the cake inside, and some of the decorations were not placed as we discussed in our consultation. I called them in a panic (after all, this WAS the day of my wedding); they were very nice and apologetic, and they came right back over and picked it up. I was worried that they wouldn't make it back in time, but they made it! Although there were a few glitches with my wedding cake, the flavor was like no other and well worth the wait.

We are so happy that everything worked out. We are sorry for the incovenience but we always make sure to correct any issues. We allow a 2 hour delivery window for all our cakes meaning we will deliver it sometime between that window. Hope everything was absolutely wonderful at the wedding! Congratulations again:)

My wedding cake was so beautiful, delicious, and moist. I had 3 tiers with two satellites on the sides. I brought in my silk ribbons and flowers to the baker, and she did exactly what I envisioned. The compliments on my wedding cake were extended throughout the event. I can't wait until my 1st year anniversary to eat the top piece! Lol

Great service and amazing cakes! We just sent them a screen shot of an image for our grooms cake and they did an amazing job. Very professional and fun at the tastings. They also helped make goodies for our out of town guests.

Gambino's Bakery of Lafayette gave me my perfect wedding cakes. I ordered a three tiered Super Mario themed bridal cake and an original NES controller themed groom's cake. They were both absolutely gorgeous. Every guest LOVED the detail put into the design. The cakes were delicious and very reasonably priced. Gambino's even delivered almost 40 miles away. My friend also used Gambino's a month before for her own (more traditional) wedding cake and groom's cake, and I have to say those were amazing too. I would definitely recommend Gambino's to anyone. They basically took a picture I found and turned it into reality. Fantastic work! (btw the cream cheese and pecan filling is just scrumptious!!)

I planned my wedding completely long-distance, from Colorado, for a New Orleans wedding. I stumbled upon Gambino's and heard from friends that they have the best cake in town. They were sooo right. We were on a small budget for a small-ish wedding, so we ordered a 14" round instead of a wedding cake, and asked them to add some splashes of color to match our cake topper. When we picked it up on the morning of our wedding, we were so impressed at the size and beauty of the cake. It turned out gorgeous. The staff was also very friendly and helpful, and were very excited for our wedding. Then when the cake cutting came around, our friends and family just demolished the thing - it tasted like heaven (we didn't get fondant - we got buttercream icing with almond cake). Thankfully there was some left over to take on our honeymoon - during the travel catastrophe we experienced, it was awesome to have some Gambino's cake waiting for us in our carry-ons. I highly recommend using them for your wedding.

Wedding cake and groom's cake both came out beautiful and tasted great! I brought in pictures I found on the internet for both cakes and they were able to copy them pretty much exactly!

Gambino's is the premier bakery in the New Olreans area. We have bought cakes from them for years. When my daughter moved her wedding to New Orleans we knew who to get the wedding cake from. It was the freshest cake you ever ate. It was a Doberge cake which is simply delicious. It was such a beautiful cake as well. I would recommend this bakery to anyone in the area.

Thank you! We are so happy you chose our Doberge Cake to celebrate a very important day in your lives:) Congratulations!

Setting an appointment to meet with a baker was easy. I even brought a picture (that they can keep on file with them) of how i wanted my wedding cake to be designed. They had my cake delivered on time. My only compliant was that the could have done the design neater. When i compared the picture to their work, it didn't compare. I was a little disappointed. Other than that, it was moist and tasted good.
GUEST




The cake was UM UM GOOD! I came in at 3 weeks before my wedding to order the cake and paid for the cake the day before and the cake was ready when they said it would be and it was yummy! Thank you Gambino's!
GUEST




The entire cake was eaten at the reception. It was beautiful and delicious!
GUEST




So nice to work with. She sat down with us and went over what we wanted, making suggestions when needed. The cakes went over so well and guests are still talking about how good it was.
GUEST




Both the bride's cake and groom's cake were ordered from Gambino's. I found that they were reasonable priced for wedding cakes. The cakes were very well made and soft and tasty.
GUEST




I waited until the last minute to put in an order for my cake, about a week before the wedding, and they were able to make it in time. The price was very good and the cake was beautiful and it was the best cake i had ever eaten.
GUEST




Cake was beautiful and delivered on time

When we ordered our wedding cake from Gambino's, we had something special in mind. We did not have a lot of extra funds, but we were able to get our favorite comics (Calvin and Hobbes) printed all over both tiers, and supply our own action figures for the top. They were so helpful, professional, and flexible, which helped at that hectic time. Also, my husband was so impressed with how delicious the cake was, he wants to get another one for our anniversary.

Great Cakes
Gambino's, is where I've drooled over petit-fours and turtles all of my life! Being in the wedding industry myself and having developed a professional relationship with such an iconic establishment, has been a great experience for me. I admire so much in addition to all of the goodies they have in those glass cases. Gambino's is a hands-on, family run business that continues to move forward. Gambino's continues to look for fresh approaches to the products and services they offer their customers while at the same time, retaining the tradition that they are noted for. And...their wedding cake is dee-lish!
