Secret Bakery is a bakery in the West Nine Mile neighborhood of Ferndale, MI, with chocolate chip cookies and miso sourdough bread drawing praise from customers. At 821 Livernois St, it is a takeout stop rather than a place to sit down for a meal. Customer comments emphasize the baked goods being worth the visit; one visitor who arrived late found only a few things left, so selection can be limited later in the day.
Wednesday and Saturday hours are 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., making this a daytime stop suited to a quick visit. Free street parking is available, along with wheelchair-accessible parking and an accessible entrance. Credit and debit cards are accepted, and the bakery falls in the lowest price tier. There is no dine-in service, delivery, or restroom.

Kelsey’s cakes is a home bakery in downtown Ferndale, MI, known for custom cakes, cookies, and cake pops. Located at 240 Allen St, the women-owned business makes cakes for occasions including weddings and Mother’s Day. One wedding customer describes an apple spice cake with apple filling and a design based on an inspiration photo.

A wedding customer also notes that the cake was ready on time. For anyone considering a custom order, those accounts speak to both the design work and communication involved.
