We can continue to have this argument until the cows come home. I know you are wrong about the *general* celebration cakes and you don't agree with me. Why on earth would the pastry chefs at BC just churn out cake after cake that are all similar? The cakes are, generally, made by a production bakery.
Oh, and guess what? Both the BW Bakery and private dining at BC told me this. I am not talking out of my rear end.
I am not saying that someone might not be able to arrange a special cake, a wedding cake or whatever, but your typical chocolate/chocolate and vanilla/vanilla with standard decoration comes from BW Bakery.
I try not to answer too many questions here, especially on this subject, anymore because of the rampant misinformation provided. The PP proved my point in my mind when the operator didn't know anything about the bakery and that is the only reason I spoke up. This poster always pops up to make sure everyone thinks I am wrong but whatever her purported inside info, I don't think it is true. Believe what you want though.
Happy cake eating, everyone!
Not trying to add gas to a fire...
But last year on our wedding anniversary, we ate at Cape May (our fav), which is at the Beach Club. I was under the impression at that time because of what Private dining at the BC told me, that is, if I wanted a custom 6 inch cake I would have to order it from the Boardwalk Bakery. I thought that was strange. I had been told before this that the BC had their own bakers and did their own cakes.
So I called the BW bakery and they put their head baker on the phone with me. She took my order of exactly what I wanted. She then told me she was going to call her baker friend at the Beach Club and give him the order, as they did their own cakes. But because of the hassle I had already been through with private dining, she would take care of it herself.
She did indeed and it was exactly as I had ordered. And by the way, when it was brought to our table, the chef from Cape May came out to congradulate us, and told us that the cake had indeed come from the Beach Club in house bakery.
So yes, the Beach Club can and does their own cakes of any kind, when requested. By the way, in case anyone is wondering, here is what we ordered.
It was a 6 inch vanilla cake with white choclate mouse and fresh raspberries in between, with buttercreme icing and decorated with beautiful pink roses done in butter creme. And best of all, it was only $12.50.
