@ That Takes the Cake

The Offer:

"Always fresh. Always yummy. Always a good idea." There really is no better way to describe the gourmet cupcakes at this charming bakery in Cow Hollow. With playful names like "Gentlemen Prefer Red" (their most popular), "Hella Nutella", and "Sassy Sister", you'll find it hard to resist trying more than one. Each cupcake is made with all natural ingredients using traditional methods—just how Grandma used to do it—resulting in flavors that are fuller, richer, and creamier. Come try one on the house and fall in love with this homemade treat all over again.

The Place:

Husband and wife team Brian and Keisha Williams opened That Takes the Cake in 2007 and have been spreading love through delicious cupcakes ever since.

Brian is usually there to greet you with a smile as you make your selection, while Keisha is often off baking more fresh batches made to order. Check out their website for the flavors of the day, and keep in mind that you can also pick up day-old cupcakes at a discount. No matter what you choose, rest assured you'll leave happy.
