Hello. I recently moved to Cary and am trying to find a good bakery. I need to buy a birthday cake next week, and the problem is.....I've called a number of local bakeries and none of them have whipped cream icing. They all just seem to have butter cream icing. (Yes, there is a BIG difference!)
Hello. I recently moved to Cary and am trying to find a good bakery.
I know you said you were looking for a good bakery.
But if you get desperate any Harris Teeter, Target, or Walmart bakery has whipped cream iced cakes on hand or can be ordered.
Good Luck!
I know it's not Cary, Mad Hatters in Durham lists several cakes with whipped cream icing on their web site. Edible Art on Hillsborough Street in Raleigh (but not far from Cary) might have something in whipped cream.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!
Here in Mt Airy, there are 4 Food Lions I think and 1 of them has Whipped Cream frosting. I went to all 4 of them a while ago looking for that very thing. Good luck
I agree that the Harris Teeter cakes are really good. The bakers will also do a customized design without a significant, if any, additional charge. For my daughter's 6th birthday, I had them create a treasure island cake once with a hug mound of icing on the center as the island. They used crushed graham cracker for the sand and threw in some plastic palm trees. For her 7th birthday she had a bread baking party and again they got creative and created a whole baking theme with loaves of bread and rolling pins on the top of the cake in icing. Lastly, I had them do a cake for a baby shower I was throwing and they transformed the top of the cake into a "bubble bath"--imagine an airbrushed blue top with white icing soap bubbles on the top and sides. I then added some rubber ducks for a really cute baby shower design.
I think they like having the opportunity to be creative. The only downside is that they only do sheet cakes.
I've hear Edible Arts in Raleigh has good "custom" cakes. But you have to order WAY in advance, like 2 months or something, it's pricey and their owners are known to not be very friendly and have an attitude.
Harris Teeters cakes are good but the cakes from sam's club are better in my opinion and I hate buttercreme frosting so I always get whipped.
