Worst bakery in Richmond!!

Worst bakery in Richmond. Placed a simple order a month in advance and they did not come through. We did everything we could to make sure the order was not lost. Called several days before pick up to verify order was still active. We were assured that it was and that the cake would be started 2 days prior to pick up. Went in the night before and still no cake. Employee showed us the order slip and again assured us that the cake would be made because Emma gets there at 4am. Well, when we went to pick up cake at 7am it had not been made. Emma was defensive and rude. Her husband, you could tell this was not the first time it happened, was equally frustrated with her. Thankfully, Williams Bakery came through for us and made a beautiful 2 tier cake for our mother's 70th birthday. Go to Williams Bakery!! Save yourself the heartache and stress!! Trust me on this!!!

Just Say NO

You have got to be kidding me. After ordering a cake a month ahead of time and following up on the order a few days before the scheduled pick-up, they didn’t make the cake. I stopped by the day before to make sure the cake was ready and the employee showed me the order sheet and assured me the cake would be ready. At 7:00 A.M. on D-Day, there was no cake. Emma, the owner, told me that the very sheet I saw the day before was thrown away two weeks prior because the order was incomplete. When confronted with seeing the sheet the day before she proceeded to tell me to get out of her bakery. Thank goodness, Williams Bakery came through and made a beautiful cake for my mom’s 70th birthday. NEVER, EVER rely on Jean Jacques Bakery!!!!

Layer cakes are a specialty at Jean-Jacques, and the chefs know exactly how to turn the perfect layer cake into a fancy wedding creation. Choose yellow or chocolate cake and...

If 0 stars is an option, that would be my selection. Let me start this story as it is long with first initial contact. I contact via facebook and email. I got responses to both. I was gathering information on king cakes...

Stopped for lunch today. Small menu but we were both happy with our sandwiches.
For dessert we ordereordered a Linzer torte and it was as hard as a rock.
Also a gingerbread cookie which was ok.

We walked in smiling and happy to try the selection of sweet treats, after we entered, a older tan lady in a dress looked up at us and promptly walked away. There was something mumbled between her and the employee that came to assist us....

We purchased Chocolate Cream Puffs and Danish. The Cream Puff pastry was tough and the cream had on odd flowery taste. The danish was not good either. I have to say this was probably the worst bakery pastry I've ever had. A big disappointment. I...

Not Impressive

The pastries were not as good as I had hoped and felt big chain restaurants with "French" type pastries were better. I recommend passing on this place. It seems the pastries were sitting for awhile and were not tasty.
