Edible Art Bakery & Dessert Café

Edible Art Bakery has been making cakes in Raleigh since 1982, and the shop sits in The Circle at North Hills. Wedding cakes, birthday cakes, and custom celebration cakes are the core of what it does.

Scratch baking is the house rule, and the bakery is blunt about it: scratch is a dirty word to most bakeries, and here it is simply how the work gets done. Cupcakes, cookies, pies, and Southern desserts fill out the case. The dessert cafe side means you can eat there instead of carrying a box home.

• Gluten-free baking happens in a shared facility, which may not suit sensitive customers.
