Bakeries help with the everyday and the celebratory: fresh bread and rolls, bagels and sandwiches for lunch, and cakes for birthdays and other occasions. Many also take catering orders and fundraising donations, and some sell gift cards. Listed bakeries here offer specialties such as cassata cake, bundt cakes, bundtlets and bundtinis, so it helps to know what you want before you call.
When choosing one, ask what sizes and flavors they can make and how far ahead they need your order, especially for custom cakes or large catering orders in the Cleveland area. Confirm pickup hours and whether they can hold a cake for a specific time on the day you need it. Booking a week or more ahead is wise for holidays and weekends.
