Best place to get a great cake last minute?

I need a great cake with a C&W theme for a party this Friday. Able Baker's site says they need two weeks' notice. Where can I go? Don't like Shop Rite or Cait & Abby for this. Thanks.


Big group? Go to Costco.


If you like Able Baker, call and ask how long they really need right now?


Maybe Cedar Ridge on Ridgewood. When they were Cupcake Corral they seemed to have a C&W decor (assuming C&W is country and western). 2-3 days should be enough time if someone really wants to do it.


Try Edos on Springfield.


No idea what C&W is though!


I've gotten great cakes at splurge in millburn. Wegmans cakes (homemade chocolate) are always a hit too. In a pinch, maybe just stick some c&w theme toys in the cake?


EDO's!!!And it's YUMMY!


We had a great small dinosaur theme cake made by Pink Cupcakes in the Valley Arts District in West Orange. We mostly got cupcakes for our son's party, but we wanted to get a small cake so he had something a little bigger than a cupcake to deal with.

I'm not sure exactly what notice she needed, but it was less than two weeks. It's worth asking. And her cupcakes are pretty wonderful things which we tend to prefer to the ones from Able Baker.


Let's see if I can post a picture of the cake from my phone...

Wow! Love!

Yeah, we were pretty happy with it. We we a tad overwhelmed by our party as we recently moved to South Orange and this was the first time a lot friends were seeing our house. We didn't really give her any direction other than "dinosaurs". We were very pleased when we opened the box!


I would go to ShopRite as I've had great success there, with very moderate pricing. But I see that's off the list. Sorry.


I think this is a Google interview question.
