The Good Stuff
Short Notice
Some reviewers received customized cakes with only a day’s notice, including one delivered before the promised time.
Flavor Range
Customers mention plenty of flavour choices, including red velvet cheesecake, dark chocolate with cream cheese and Kunafa Cake.
Event Orders
The bakeshop has handled large celebration orders, including 13 cakes enjoyed by a team of almost 160 people.
Eggless Option
One long-term customer specifically reports receiving neat, attractive cakes made eggless to order.
Timely Delivery
Multiple reviews call out prompt delivery, including a second order placed one day ahead and completed as requested.
Tips for a Better Visit
Send References. Share a picture reference and describe the flavour or filling clearly; customers say this helped them reproduce the desired design.
Ask Early. Contact the shop as soon as possible for a last-minute cake; one customer placed an order a day ahead and received it as requested.
Sample Flavors. If you are unsure about a flavour, ask about tasting cupcakes first; one customer tried two before ordering.
Check Sweetness. Ask about frosting sweetness when ordering, since one reviewer found the red velvet frosting a little too sweet.
Allow Time. For an in-person visit, allow extra time if the shop is busy; one customer encountered a full parking lot and a counter wait.

The Bottom Line
Sugaholic Bakeshop in Al Karama is mainly a made-to-order celebration-cake destination. You can send a reference image for a birthday, baby shower or anniversary cake, and reviews repeatedly say the finished decoration matched—or sometimes improved on—the example. The cakes are not just display pieces: customers describe them as soft, fresh and flavourful, with designs that held up well at parties.
The useful flavour trail includes cake tubs in Mango and Nutella, Dark chocolate with cream cheese, red velvet cheesecake and Kunafa Cake. One reviewer also ordered an Oreo cake with Lotus filling and Demon Slayer characters, which was enjoyed by both children and adults. Eggless cakes are another reported option, and the shop has handled larger orders, including 13 cakes for a team of nearly 160 people.
Last-minute service is a recurring positive: customers report successful one-day orders and even delivery ahead of the committed time. Still, availability should be confirmed rather than assumed. There are a few cautions: one Ferrero cake reportedly missed the expected flavour, another reviewer found frosting too sweet, and an older complaint mentioned dry cake pops.
If visiting the counter, allow time for possible parking and service delays, and check that any promised extras are included.
