Baby Shower-looking for a Good Cake
I am throwing my sister a baby shower in a couple weeks and was looking for a really, really good cake. I was thinking of the Strawberry Cake at Golden Delight Bakery on Bethel Road, but read that they don't have many decorations. Also, if you are familiar with this bakery, how much would a cake to feed about 30 people be--rough estimate? Any other bakery ideas are welcome.

16 years ago I got a really beautiful cake for a baby shower at Bachman's Bakery in Powell. It was a baby on the back of a swan. I don't know what it cost, though.

A friend of mine makes amazing cupcakes and she just made some for another friend who just had twins that had the little baby feet on them (but by no means is this all she can do. I thought that would be something a little different than the usual cake for the shower. Her contact info is ____@____.com or ###-###-####. She makes them all from scratch and she has all sorts of amazing flavors and combos. She will even drop off and set everything up for you. Give her a call; hope this helps.

We've had delicious cakes from Tremont Goodie Shop in Upper Arlington. I have had the cake from Golden Delight as well for my son's baptism but, I think it was more pricey than Tremont. Good luck!

I have a Gourmet delivery baking company here in the Columbus area called Cake Flower that would love to create something for you! We have an amazing Strawberries 'n Cream Cake that is one of our top sellers especially for baby and bridal showers, plus we use all natural and organic ingredients which make it even extra tasty.
What kind of decor are you looking for? For 30 people you could either go with a round 8" layer cake (serves 35) or you could do a square 9" (serves 27) or 10" (serves 40). All ranging between $40-50. This includes 3 layers of cake, 2 fillings, a frosting and decor. Most customers say Cake Flower cakes are one of the most delicious cakes they have every tasted!
Feel free to contact me with any questions:-)
