Not sure how to decorate that cake for a special occasion? Just take a look at Bethel Bakery's Web site at the in-store monitor and you'll see dozens of choices. Among them are novelty cakes that take the shape of dinosaurs, video games, beer mugs or pirate ships (to name but a few) and no-cut cakes (24 cupcakes joined together for a sweet whole that cuts down on cleanup). When you've decided, you can fill out the online form right at the store and present it to the counter team. The bakery also features logo cookies that honor the Steelers and other area teams (or feature a logo of your choosing) and photo cookies. You'll also find the usual donuts, cookies, jumbo muffins and coffee cakes, along with a German chocolate cake that's getting rave reviews. The store's counters also showcase cakes that will provide food for thought.

Buttercream/ whipped cream
By FormerNewYorker1 on 08/11/2008
On three seperate purchases here, I had specifically requested 'buttercream' icing on my cakes and cupcakes, only to get their 'whipped Crisco' icing. (It leaves a residue on your lips, yuk!) As glutton for punishment, I recently ordered ( last week) 42 cupcakes, once again requesting their signature 'buttercream' icing; what did I get, 21 whipped cream/ 21 buttercream. At least 1/2 of my order was correct this time. The chocolate icing was 'buttercream'!......Luckily I had a can of 'Duncan & Hines' white icing at home; I scraped off their 'fluff' and put on some proper icing. Family/ friends then enjoyed all of the 42 cupcakes. ......On a positive note, the cakes at Bethel Bakery are very good., the icing is very questionable. Unfortunately I will NEVER buy here again.

Lousy Icing
By usc2osu on 07/03/2008
The icing on their cakes tastes like Crisco. Has no sweetness at all. Honestly tastes like Crisco shortening.

The sweets on display in the store are beautiful

It's a place to buy sweets when you have guests and want to delight them with beautiful desserts. But you can't walk out of the store without buying something for yourself too.
