Jennivee's Bakery & Cafe

I was really excited to try this place after reading so many positive reviews, but unfortunately my experience was disappointing. I ordered the tres leches cake and the mango cupcake based on the staff’s recommendations. The tres leches was dry and lacked flavor. After the first bite, I took another hoping it would get better, but it honestly tasted like plain bread. There wasn’t even a hint of vanilla, and the frosting tasted like whipped cream without much flavor. The texture was also much denser than I expected for a tres leches cake. The mango cupcake had a better flavor profile, but the cake itself was so dense that it was difficult to cut with a fork, especially around the mango filling. The desserts were beautifully presented, but they fell short when it came to flavor, texture, and overall quality

I always enjoy this place so much. They have the best cakes and desserts. The atmosphere is so fun and the staff is wonderful. I’ve had some nice custom things done for special occasions and everyone is very helpful always.

Quality is excellent and taste is great, but VERY pricey. A slice of cake sets you back 11 bucks. The Mango cake is heavenly and so good, it compensates for the enormous amount of fat and sugar you consume! Drip coffee was excellent too. Vibe is bright and very welcoming. Very Insta appropriate and picturesque too!

I walked in with raging sweet tooth. I left filled to the brim with delights. My journey started with "gut feelings" which led me to the most unsatisfying lunch I've had in sometime. I jump on AI to drum up spots and Jennivee's was on the list. A couple minutes later I was walking through the door. To start with its charming decore, clean vibrant appearance, and fragrant fresh baked goods leap at you with a pleasant familiarity. Add to that the most pleasant attendant Devon was there to walk me through the options. For instance the cakes are very light because they are Chiffon, and the cupcakes are a bit more crumb forward because it's butter cake. I chose the tres leches with is so delicate, I'm surprised it didn't float off the fork. I also got a chai latte that had the right amount of spice to it. This place can correct any bad navigation. I will be back.

We ordered a Strawberry Crunch Cheesecake Cake for a birthday party and it was AMAZING! It is a seasonal cake, so thankful we were able to try it. Priced fairly as it is essentially two cakes in one- not to mention it’s huge! 10/10 highly recommended!
