I always order our cakes for special occasions at Pearsons. Last week, I ordered a cake for my granddaughter’s christening. We had the most beautiful decorating done by Marie, a layer of chocolate and white, with amazing raspberry cream filling! Delicious and just beautiful! Thank you for getting just right, again!

Pearson's has the best cakes around! I ordered my dad a cake for his 80th birthday and it turned out beautiful. Chocolate cake with buttercream frosting and chocolate buttercream filling. The buttercream is great and not that sickeningly sweet frosting that you get from store-bought cakes. Made with love and you can tell!

I've been going to this place for over 30 years... there is not one bad thing in this place. The cinnamon bread is amazing....I make French toast with it...I've never tasted better. The ladies are sweet, friendly, and patient. I have never found a bakery that makes coffee cakes the way these guys do. If you're on the Southside, you owe it to yourself to stop in this place. A perfect way to start this rainy day....chocolate donuts to go.

Excellent bakery, everything they have is fantastic. I've got cakes from there, doughnuts chocolate brownies. I'm so in love with those, I've got an almond croissant cherry places cookies, your name, and I've gotten it from there, I'm going there for years. For about 10 years, I couldn't go only because I was living out-of-state. But once I came back, that was the first place I aimed for. They are doing one of the best bakeries around.Trust me , they are people are wonderful i spent over $10 every time I go just getting so many different things to last for a few days.\nEspecially the brownies l o l which you can easily spend under $10.If you're just getting a coffee and a roll even under five there is no l seating inside.It has to be take out though
