I give Dreamcakes to my clients and business associates. The cakes come in a wide variety, and they are delicious and beautiful. They are always remembered.

I went to a wedding this past Sunday, and Dreamcakes made the cake. Holy moly, it was AMAZING!! The frosting was so rich, it almost tasted like ice cream. The cake was beautifully decorated too. I recommend Dreamcakes for your special events!!

We drove outside of Birmingham to come here just based on the instagram photos. Our cupcakes were incredible, even the next day. Our favorite was by far the Strawberry. Incredible!

Today was not my first visit in Dreamcakes but the first time I was really more than disappointed. I was looking for the small cupcakes to take to 2 important clients for an afternoon pick me up. When I entered the store I was immediately greeted but couldn't tell by whom.I mean I only had one foot in the door. It was about 1 and I thought surely they would still have plenty. Well, there were only 10 in the case but many pkgs of 5 per. I had left my glasses in the car and asked the girl what flavors the packages were. She huffed at me and came around the counter and rattled out the flavors. So I asked her if I picked some of the packages and those in the case could she put them in a box for me. The answer was a quick NO. So I bought $40 worth of cakeand was given a plastic grocery bag in order to take to my clients. Then I noticed that there were paper bags with handles behind the counter and asked for 2 of those. I guess if I had explained my purpose maybe she would have offered to box the cakes. But, it seemed like just too much trouble for her. Anyone can make a cupcake, but good service cannot be bought. Will be looking for other goodies for my clients. P.S. The punch card doesn't work on the smaller cakes no matter what you spend. That was the last dagger. I could purchase one reg cupcake and get a punch and 60 of the small ones and again NO!

I went by today to satisfy my sweet tooth but was not at all satisfied. I ordered one red velvet cupcake which turned out to be dry and TOO sweet. Now- we all know red velvet is sweet but not as sweet as a strawberry cupcake in which this reminded me of. In addition to that, the cupcake had multi colored glass theme sprinkles which didn't go with the taste of the cupcake- and added MORE sweetness. Not satisfied with this choice, I may go back and try another flavor. I won't be in a hurry though.

I was roaming around town looking for something to satisfy this sweet tooth that I can't seem to satiate nowadays and that's when it hit me. I hadn't written a review for Dreamcakes Bakery yet! How had I not written a review for Dreamcakes yet?! So I made a quick turnaround and headed towards the bakery.
Dreamcakes is nestled a sort of historical district of Homewood, surrounded by small shops of all different times and a residential district. If you take the time to explore the area you could catch yourself spending an entire day exploring all that this area has to offer. Dreamcakes is stationed right in the middle of all this lovely, local splendor. The shop is on the small side but it boasts a large cooler filled with all types of tasty treats from cupcakes to whoopee pies. I've been several times and the bakers are always lovely. I usually know exactly what they have in their case but I like to take my time to look at all the goodies and see which one tempts me the most. Today (Wednesday) I happened to come in during a BOGO special they were having on cupcakes. Lucky me right? After much contemplation, I settled on a strawberry, coconut, wedding cake and an over the moon cupcake. I was hesitant to purchase the Over the Moon cupcake because of the white chocolate curls on top but the baker was nice enough to scrape them all off for me. I HATE chocolate so this was such a big deal for me. I paid for my fare and exited the bakery triumphant! So pride of myself and my loot! When I finally arrived home where I could really enjoy my cupcakes, I ripped the box open and proceed to feast. I began with the wedding cake cupcake followed with half of the strawberry. I LOVEEE wedding cake flavored things because they always have a slight taste of almond with a super moist cake and this one was no different. So good, so moist and not too sweet. I also liked the strawberry. My only critique would be to use some real strawberries in the mix or frosting. The local strawberries are in season and absolutely lovely so why not use them?
This place is definitely a need to try in Birmingham. It's hands down the best cupcake bakery I've found to date and the prices are some of the best you'll find in Birmingham.response / report this review -

They have the very best cupcakes. There were so many choices that I had to get all the mini cupcakes to try each flavor! This is a place that you definitely will love if you have a sweet tooth. It is heaven.

I'm not sure I know how to express how much I love this place. Ever present is an issue with tastes so decadent, you should not have them everyday. I do not have that problem, per se, but the taste of every item on display should probably warn of the hazards of addiction. The staff is great and the location is as good as you can get. Final warning: don't come here with an empty stomach, but make sure to save room when you eat at a surrounding restaurant.
