Larry’s House of Cakes

Their Salted Caramel Cupcakes are AMAZING! I also got a chocolate stuffed cookie that was soft and perfect! My only quibble is that they have no seating~ It goes to say that their sweets sell themselves and they don’t need anything besides that, but making a café or incorporating a little eating area would really seal the deal for me. Bottom line: BEST CUPCAKE I’VE EVER TASTED!

I wish I could give Larry’s 10 stars. Was introduced to Larry’s back early 2000s and have never been disappointed by their amazing pink sugar cookies. Every time I am back in town, it’s one of the first places I go to. If in Marion, I highly recommend stopping in!

Had two cakes there and both were awesome… ordered them through Dixie Cream Donuts in West Frankfort, IL

The taste is always five stars from Larry’s House of Cakes. One of hubby’s and my personal favorites is the cream cheese frosted doughnuts… to die for!
Although I would love to tackle their marketing and identity (it’s pretty old-​school) with a new logo and advertising, the treats here are tasty enough to still be successful without an attractive logo or prof. marketing effort. Their reputation precedes them and flies around Southern Illinois from the mouths of happy customers.
As a previous reviewer said, their presentation may be lacking, but I’ve never had a Larry’s treat that wasn’t absolutely delicious.

We used Larry’s for our wedding and they did a great job. Their prices are competitive, people are nice and very knowledgeable, and the end result tasted great!
They allowed us to taste all of our options for our cupcakes and two types of frosting ahead of us making a decision which was great. They also had options for delivery and set up which made the wedding day much easier since we didn’t have to do a thing but tell them where to deliver.
They even allowed us to choose multiple types of cake (4 to be specific) for our cupcakes and top wedding cake for cutting for no extra cost. Their frosting is wonderful and their cake is moist and tasty. I’m normally not a fan of chocolate cake, but there’s was great!
Overall they did a great job. My only complaint would be that the cake and decoration options were not as interesting as I could have hoped for, but the price made up for lack of options.

the best iced sugar cookies in the world!!!

I’ve never ordered anything from Larry’s that wasn’t delicious. I think they might put something addictive in their frosting, because you literally cannot stop yourself from eating it.
Even their Italian Cream Cake (which I found out is rare to begin with), which I generally would not be a fan of given my not-​so-​positive view of nuts and coconut, is amazing.
