12 reviews for Layers Bakery Desserts
This is one of those places that reminds me why I'm a chubby mofo. Unique sweets to die for and some old favs too! As if that wasn't enough, they also provide a pretty impressive amount of coffee concoctions as the perfect compliment to the sweet of your choice.
Each item is about two bucks and change or 1.65 for cookies. Definitely not the cheapest baker in town but for quality goods, no preservatives, no trans fats, and no artificial ingredients...it is well worth it.
I've been to Layers once and I loved it there. The people are really friendly and the desserts are great. I love how "simple" the desserts are, as they should be. Their cakes are not outrageous which I appreciate.
I live a very short distance away which is so DANGEROUS to my waistline! I got a biscotti and my boyfriend got the butterscotch cheesecake! OH MY GOODNESS. I'm very sensitive to overly-sweet food and what we had was delightfully sweet and not at all overwhelming. I will definitely be coming back (and possibly getting my boyfriend's birthday cake here).
I am in here once a week.
I buy treats for people at work.
I have picked up cakes, cookies, baklava, chocolate croissants, bars, tarts, cupcakes. For real everything is scrumptious. I am a giant fan of the OCHO (orange cranberry hazelnut oatmeal) such a fan that I send it to my family and friends in Chicago, Seattle and Denver. I try to get as many people hooked on this bakery as possible, the owners are wonderful, pleasant and great at suggesting what I should buy for my work buddies.
I would buy more for myself but then I would weight 700 pounds. And being 700 pounds and driving a mini cooper really doesn't work out.
Scrumptious.
This is one of the best bakeries I have been to. The desserts are creative, unique, fresh and delicious. And the staff is always delightful. You can get a nice treat for under $5. The cakes are a bit pricey but definitely worth it.
I've had the molasses cookies which taste wonderful, although I prefer them chewier (these are half soft and half chewy). The cakes I've tried have all been great but they only offer one cake and pie by the slice daily so I visit often to sample the variety.
The Gooey Butter Bar is SO GOOD!! This buttery vanilla treat is best when warmed up in the cafe.. mmmm mmmm.
I got my wedding cake from here, and holy crap it did not disappoint! I started emailing Jeanie months in advance as we discussed our options. We're from LA, so when we were in Vegas doing a planning/scouting trip, we made sure to have a tasting. OMG were the pieces of cake and frosting they gave us DELICIOUS.
The cake came out totally cute! I wish the silver luster dust had looked a little more...lustery? I don't know. Perhaps I should have requested that we use those little silver candy balls people put on Christmas cookies. Anyway, the cake was a total success. Everybody at the reception loved it, and the price was really reasonable.
And the fun part - we practically had the whole cake left over. We'd gotten a three-tier cake and two large cutting cakes (planned for 100 guests and wanted more than enough cake to go around). We did the ceremonial cut from the tiered cake, and then the cutting cakes were served to the masses. We had the ENTIRE TIERED CAKE left. Oh well. Made for good eats when we got home! And it's a damn good thing our honeymoon wasn't for a couple weeks later so we could enjoy the cakey wonderfulness.
I can't wait until we go back to Vegas so I can swing by the shop and get a little piece of heaven to go.
I love this bakery! I remember stopping by this place when I was heading to Trader Joe's next door.
The owner is a very nice gentleman who is always working there daily. This place has already been voted the Best of Vegas for many years ('05-'08), so I trusted that it would be good. There is also no artificial ingredients, trans fats, or preservatives!
During my first visit, there was a film shooting; it was kind of strange to see that here. At any rate, my boyfriend and I couldn't decide on what to get. Therefore, we got the white chocolate raspberry bar, the baklava, the chocolate cupcake, and chocolate cookie. They were all SOOOOO GOOD!
After trying Layers, I decided to order their Tiramisu cake for my friend's birthday party. I heard it was a favorite of all the customers here, so I ordered it. When I tried it at the party, it was drenched with SO much RUM! WHOA! The cake seemed to be soaked in it! Didn't eat much of it...
This week I drove by this place, and I decided to bring Theresa B. with me. I got the baklava and the strawberry shortcake bar. Theresa B. got the chocolate cupcake. Her cupcake was pretty rich and sweet. My baklava was just delicious, although the honey on the outside could be a bit too sweet! The strawberry shortcake bar was just right...
I would give this place 5 stars, but some things here can be sweet, so I'm giving it 4! I'm also giving it 4 stars because of the tiramisu cake drenched in alcohol! I'm just gonna stick to the other baked goods here....
I'll have to try their other cakes some time soon...
I would come here all the time if I lived closer. This place is completely amazing. Jeannie and her husband are soooo nice and fun to talk to. The coffee drinks are great too, just like the desserts. Go and go often!
This is one of my favorite places for coffee and cookies or some other pastry treat. They are great and know all the regulars by name.
There is a reason this place has won the Best of Las Vegas for the last 4 YEARS in ROW!!!!! Its cause they are AMAZING!!!!! This place really is the BEST bakery in Henderson & Las Vegas... They make everything on premises, and have a HUGE variety of things to choose from, whatever your looking for you can find there... the peanut butter cookies are to die for, as well as the chocolate chip bread pudding! Mine and my husbands favorite is the chocolate mud puddle (which we call the muddle!) heated up with a bit of whipped cream!! To dye for!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am hooked on there coffee, I buy it by the bag (a bag a week) and make it at home all day long!!! Everytime i go in to get a bag i pick up a white chocolate raspberry bar for my husband, he LOVES them!!
The owners, Greg and Jeanne are wonderful people who have become friends as well--we even sent them a postcard while in Paris on our honeymoon, which now hangs in the bakery by the register--they have a "regular crowd" of people that go there almost daily.. so when you stop in you always see a friendly face and have someone to talk to... and Greg who's usually behind the counter will greet you with a friendly hello and by your name none the less... i would say about 80% of their customers are regulars and they are known by name!
We have gotten cakes and pies for special occasions and Jeanne always makes them beautiful and writes on them whatever you want, you dont need to go in with much notice in less you have a specific cake or pie in mind that you want cause there is always many to choose from there ready to go, and they will write on it on the spot! Even give you candles to go with it if needed!!
They just started making bread and as you would expect it is AMAZING as well!!!!
You really cant go wrong if you venture into this place which is a little piece of heaven!!!! If you want a little something sweet, a cup of coffee or just want to be around some friendly people...this is the place to go!!!!!!!
this place is awesome. without question, absolutely amazing
I stopped by to get a cake for my student's birthday, and grabbed a golden nugget fortune cake and a loaf of the strawberry lemon bread. both were amazing. the cake is really sweet and rich, with a layer of caramel on top that just drips after each slice. the bread is, in a word, heavenly. the staff was very kind, and I will definitely be heading back
wooo.. this place is delicious. the molten chocolate cake is bomb. the cupcakes are soooo good and the frosting is even better. definitely deserving of the five stars.
One of those "a little pricey but it's worth it" bakeries......lots of stuff to choose from, only trouble is with all that inventory, some of it is ultra-fresh while some of it is "yesterdays". (Just ask, they're nice!). We like to get a baker's dozen of mixed bars and treats, take them home and cut them in half or into thirds (some are pretty big!), and then put out a variety platter for everyone...what a way to impress your friends! Our friends are always saying "you know the best bakeries!! How DO you find them?". It's the nose, the nose knows!
