Bolo Cakery - Calgary

The absolute best cakes in Calgary. Big, firm, delicious! Perfect to munch in when playing pc games!

I ordered a cake for my sons birthday and it was so delicious. It wasn’t too sweet which is perfect. It was one of the best cakes I’ve had. My family loved it and we wanted to eat more, lol. Lisa is so friendly and I will definitely be ordering from here again.

So recently I was looking for a birthday cake with caramel and chocolate in it (favs of a friend) and lo and behold, saw Bolo Cakery near the top of my list. The website listed a salted caramel and chocolate cake as a popular item...perfect for what I was looking for! We popped in around at around 1:30 pm and was very nervous to see that there were only a few cakes left in the coolers. The owner, Lisa, came out from the back and instantly put me and my partner right at ease, and ended up having a great little chat. She was super friendly and you could tell this was where she was meant to be. I also knew she if she put her personality into her craft, the cake I was looking for would be fabulous ? Luckily there was a few Bolo "babies" on hand (4" round but at least 6" tall) so we chose one and spirited it away as fast as we could. It looked so good my partner (who is lactose intolerant) had to have a great Americano expresso because he was too sad that he wouldn't be able to get any ?. With a few wise parting words from Lisa about not putting it in the fridge as we were having it that evening (to let the caramel inside to be ooey and gooey for the cake to be super moist), we surprised the birthday boy and dug right in. It was hands down the best I'd ever had (did I mention caramel is one of my favorites too??). Oh and one of Lisa's comments was that the cake should be at the right temp so that you could spread the buttercream frosting on toast. It was so delicious (not too sweet, utterly sinful), I may have to take her up on that suggestion the next time. My birthday is coming up in a few months. Guess what I will be asking for? Try Bolo...you won't regret it!!

Thank you to Andrew and Lisa for having such a cute and adorable cake shop! Wonderful and pleasant husband and wife! First time and wouldn't be the last. We bought a black forest cake for the dad in-law’s birthday who was visiting from out of town…he loved the cake! I highly recommend this cake shop for anyone that is looking for high quality, amazing delicious cakes for any occasion! Keep up the great work!

I was trying to find something else when I ended up here. Staff member patiently and kindly gave me directions and suggestions to find what I wanted. Ended up buying a cake, since I was there, and it was the best choice I've ever made. The cake was an experience. I highly recommend rushing over and getting one for yourself.

Lisa was so accommodating. Super friendly and personable. She loves what she does and it shows in her cakes. Delicious butter cream icing on a colour funfetti cake. Perfect for our little one's second birthday. Don't forget a birthday cake cookie for the ride home.

Drove by this plaza a lot and realized there was a highly rated bakery so when I needed something sweet I went by for a visit. The birthday cake/funfetti cookies were so soft and moist as were the triple chocolate cookies. We had some cold cinnamon buns to take home with warming instructions that melted in your mouth. Will definitely be returning customers.

Amazing cake. It is very unique in its flavour and texture unlike most generic cake. The cake is dense and isn't too sweet yet flavourful. The icing is a perfect consistency/viscosity without a sweetness that isn't too overbearing to the cake ratio. Ordered the London fog cake and in the center was ozing some delicious Earl Grey salted caramel which was also just enough to balance out each layer. The cake was beautifully made and worth a try (or two, or three...).
