Bakery Chain SusieCakes Is Opening a New Bakery in Austin’s Clarksville | Eater Austin

"A West Coast–born bakery chain is opening its second Austin location in the Clarksville neighborhood on Friday, September 6. It’s best known for vibrant, decadent layer cakes — including the Celebration (vanilla-sugar confetti cake with light blue vanilla frosting), the Luscious Lemon (vanilla cake with lemon curd and vanilla buttercream exterior), and the Southern Red Velvet — along with cookies, sandwich cookies, key lime pies, and catering services. The Clarksville shop will offer special Hook ’Em–decorated cupcakes for University of Texas football games and will celebrate its first day by giving away free cupcakes from 3–6 p.m., plus free Longhorn cupcakes to guests wearing burnt orange; there will also be a raffle to win a year of free cakes and the owner/founder, Susan Sarich, will be on site. Sarich started the bakery in 2006 in Los Angeles, later expanded to California and the Dallas–Fort Worth area, and relocated her family and headquarters to Texas; the brand’s first Austin outpost opened in October 2022 near Rollingwood on Bee Cave Road. The Clarksville location will operate daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., and other nearby bakeries include a temporary outpost of a different local bakery less than a block away (its full shop is slated to reopen in 2026)." - Nadia Chaudhury

I don't know what these other reviewers are talking about, but I don't think they understand what authentic baked goods should taste like. I agree with the overpricing aspect; it's a bit much, but you do get a massive piece of cake. I have ordered four separate times (single slice and whole cake) and have never had any of the issues claimed in the reviews by other customers. If you want cheap cake, go to a chain grocery store!

I wanted to get a special cake for my son’s first birthday ended up spending 200$ plus on an 8” cake that no one could finish a slice of! The cake was hard and not moist at all! Tasted old, too sweet and just terrible! I also got cupcakes that were just as bad, it tasted like a cheap supermarket cupcakes with the greasy frosting . Not what you’d expect for a cake shop that advertises as bake from scratch best ingredients top notch ect..

Dropped by for the first time. The only place that was selling cakes at 6 pm. I bought a confetti vanilla cake. Based on the reviews, I said $50 plus for a 6" cake, why not! The ladies were beyond helpful and nice. This is only based on the cake. Never once did I refrigerate it. I picked it up and took it straight to dinner. When we cut the cake, it was so hard and dry. For a $50 cake, I would expect it to be moist and spongey,but not this one. My son grabbed a slice and took one bite, that's it. The sweetness of it reminded me of a supermarket cake. We were very disappointed. Maybe it was a wrong batch who knows, but I regret not getting off early and dropping by champagne bakery.

Love SusieCakes! I have been buying celebration cakes for our family here for birthdays, gender reveals, etc and they never disappoint! Their staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, their cake is always delicious and most! My only critique - I wish they had dye free sprinkles and icing. Overall, highly recommend!!

This place is absolutely overpriced for the quality of the baked goods. I bought 50 cupcakes for my daughter’s birthday and they were God awful. We usually get our cakes and cupcakes from the bakery at Vons but wanted to get something “better” this time even if we had to spend more money. We were so wrong!! The cupcakes were dry and the icing just tasted like sugar they were so bad it reminded me of those cheap 4th of July cupcakes they sell at Walmart. Out of the 50 only 6 got half eaten and the rest thrown away. Please don’t waste your money and find any other bakery!!

I was welcomed immediately when I came into the store, I was told about their other location. On my drive home I had at the chocolate cupcake and their seasonal vanilla cupcake for black history month. And they were delicious . I am the person that scrapes off the icing/ frosting for any cupcake/ cake slice I eat…. This time i said lemme try it Bingo it was delicious…. Ive never liked frosting/ icing unless its cream cheese. But here I was licking my fingers. Lol. Wonderful service. Fantastic cakes.!! They have an It factor here. And i like it!!!

We love this place, we have ordered both of our kids birthday cakes from there. My son wanted a chocolate with vanilla frosting and my daughter a confetti cake with vanilla frosting. They were both delicious.

They always have a wide selection of cupcakes. We’ve tried their signature cake - the red velvet - and it’s delicious. They usually have free samples available. The staff is awesome - so warm and friendly.
