"If you need a cake def pick this place out of everywhere else in Catawba county or Burke county area. I came for a baby shower cake and she made it exactly how I wanted. I go to a lot of weddings/ functions and it’s always funny to me how no one eats the cake . My cake was gone. Everyone said how beautiful it was as well as how moist and fresh it tasted!

Customer service is great. Staff is friendly. Owner is self taught and worked around other bakeries in the area for years. She finally opened up her own place and I am so glad she did! Other places I went to told me they couldn’t do something because they didn’t have the proper tools or they would always say will it won’t look exactly like the picture .  Well she will go out and get it and create whatever you want and make it look like exactly how you want it . Also while discussing the cake and flavors she actually went to the back and made me Oreo cake to try since it wasn’t out on the floor; so I knew actually what all flavors tasted. We had a three layer coconut, red velvet, and Oreo . Great flavors ! Give this place a try ! I am def a foodie and a perfectionist can’t say anymore good things about how happy I was with my experience and my cake!"

"Absolutely AMAZING! Carpe Crustum is hands-down the best bakery in the Charlotte area. They have made several cakes for our family, and the latest cake was for our 20th vow renewal (the pictures speak louder than words). I cannot recommend them enough. If you are anywhere near the area, stop by!

The strawberry tiramisu is quite possibly the best dessert on the planet!

Thanks again, Carpe Crustum, for making our celebrations (and sometimes just a quick dessert) that much more special. God bless you all!"

"We decided to choose this bakery based off of reviews and so glad we did they went far above what we wanted. Our daughters 5th Birthday cake and cupcakes came out exactly how we wanted. I couldn't have asked for a better cake. It looked better then the inspo picture I showed the artist and she definitely delivered. I will most definitely use her again and would highly recommend her if you are looking for a cake for your special day"

QUALITY YOU CAN TASTE
What Sets Us Apart

We know that we’re not the only bakery and cafe around and you have plenty of other options to choose from. You can rest assured that we focus more on quality over quantity. When you buy a cake, pie, pastry or cup of coffee, we promise you that you’ll see and taste a difference. 

The Finest Ingredients
We only use fresh, high quality ingredients from trusted sources. Thus, we are very picky with our suppliers.

Handcrafted Baking Techniques
We follow handcrafted baking techniques that cannot be replicated by large-scale commercial bakeries. You’ll see and taste the difference in all of our products.

Baked in Small Batches
Since we focus heavily on quality over quantity, all of our cupcakes, pastries and other items are baked in small batches. We don’t believe in mass production.

Commitment to Quality
Every aspect of our bakery is committed to quality. In addition to the quality of our ingredients and baked goods, we also focus on the quality of our service.
