Margaux was amazing to work with from start to finish! Our tasting was personal and fun–she definitely understood our style and taste. We wanted hand pies for our wedding and she delivered the cutest and tastiest pies–cranberry orange with rosemary and a pumpkin butterscotch option as well. I hadn’t wanted a cake, but after tasting her options it ended up being my favorite part. Delivery was on time and professional, set up was beautiful and pricing was super reasonable. We would definitely recommend Margaux again!

Tinker’s Cake Shop – Menu with Prices – 317 W Maxwell St, Lexington

Tinker’s is the BEST cake shop in Lexington! Cameron is wonderful to work with and I could not be happier with the cake we received for our friends’ wedding yesterday. From the start with the beautiful cake tasting, we were incredibly impressed with Cameron’s professionalism and the options presented. He was very helpful with styrofoam cake shapes and sizes to demonstrate what the tier options are and what the finished cake size would be. He has lots of cake examples around the shop for inspiration and plenty of photos to look at. He also has several gorgeous cake stands available and bonus – a stand is included in the cake price! The tasting showcased lots of options and they were all delicious! We had the best time! Skip forward a few months and now it’s the wedding day. Cameron showed up exactly on time, with the cake exactly as ordered. Such a relief to work with a true professional for such an important event! The floral designer left flowers for him to put on the cake and Cameron did a fantastic job – the finished product was gorgeous. But here is the best part – the cake was absolutely DELICIOUS! I LOVE cake and this was actually one of the best cakes I have ever had (and definitely the best wedding cake ever). The piece I had was tiramisu and I highly recommend this to anyone looking for something a little different and more sophisticated for their cake. And the frosting was incredible – it was light and airy and not too sweet. The entire thing was perfection. On top of all of that, the price was very reasonable. We feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with Tinker’s and highly recommend them. I can’t wait to have another opportunity to order a cake from them!

Wonder Cake Creations – Menu with Prices – 1464 Boulevard of the Arts, Sarasota

Wonder Cake Creations was one of my favorite wedding vendors. Cake has always been one of my favorite party essential! The cake must be beautiful and taste beautiful. In Sarasota, that’s hard to find! After trying to contact an bakery in LWR and having them lose my appointment I found Wonder Cake Creations and contacted them right away! David was able to get me in the same day for a consultation and then we scheduled a tasting. I fell in love with our wedding cake and the compliments have been so nice! Th cake was delicious and all around beautiful. We chose lemon raspberry and coconut pineapple! David and Rocio were such a pleasure to work with and their new location at the Rosemary District is amazing!

Christine Dahl Pastries – Menu with Prices – 22 W Mission St, Santa Barbara

Christine Dahl provided the cake for our recent wedding at the Santa Barbara Zoo. She was very professional and warm throughout the process, from setting up the tasting appointment to mailing us photos of our cake after the wedding! We went to a few tastings and Christine Dahl’s cakes blew the others away. We went with a white buttercream applied in a horizontal ribbon pattern and two flavors on the inside. (Different flavors for the different tiers.) One flavor was a half chocolate half white cake with chocolate ganache and raspberry filling (my husband’s pick) and my pick was a vanilla cake with passion fruit and coconut – I think this is the best cake I’ve ever eaten in my life. No joke. Christine Dahl seems to prefer phone contact over e-mail- I have phone shyness so I was a little nervous at first but it ended up being fine and more direct and she actually picked up whenever I called. I told Christine I wanted to have some succulents decorating the cake and she said she was familiar with the florist I was using (grassroots) so I told the florist as well and they took care of it – I never had to deal with it. All I know is, when I showed up at my wedding, a beautiful cake was there and was decorated with succulents that matched my wedding flowers. Her prices are very reasonable considering the excellent quality and it was easy to work with her within our specified budget and approximate number of guests. She’s a real pro. Besides being an excellent baker, it’s clear she has a lot of experience and runs her business professionally. I would recommend you go straight to her for your wedding cake!

Golden Boy Pies, Inc. – Menu with Prices – 4945 Hadley St, Overland Park

After finally finding out who was supplying Town Topic’s pies we called to order a few items. You can order retail from them after calling and “setting up an account”, which is no more than giving your name, address, and phone number. You have to give them a 24 hour notice on what you want and pick it up yourself, no delivery. If you order on a Friday, it will be a Monday pickup. Wow! These folks make THE best pie crust I’ve ever had! So flaky and buttery tasting! I got the butterscotch, which is fantastic! Not sure I’ll be able to convince myself to try anything else…pie-wise. We also got the chocolate cream cheese cake, which I haven’t tried yet because of the pie;-) Very reasonably priced considering I got a whole pie and cake for a fraction of what you’d pay at a restaurant.

Fleur de Lisa – Menu with Prices – 463 Sebastopol Ave, Santa Rosa

How many people do you know ask for seconds (or in some of our guests’ cases a third serving) at a wedding reception? A few years ago I had the awesome opportunity to taste cake from Fleur de Lisa at my cousin’s wedding in Yountville. It was amazing. So fast forward to last winter when my husband and I became engaged and decided to have a Napa Valley wedding, we knew we wanted to have the same wedding cake baker. So we set up the tasting and secured the date with Jamie. The tasting was at 8:30am, which is not ideal, but we still had a great time choosing flavors for our cake. It was so difficult because there are so many great flavors. We decided to go with four flavors: cafe ole, carmella, raspberry zinger and white cake with black currant puree. People loved the cake so much that many people ended up having another serving which I knew would happen because my husband and I did the same at my cousin’s wedding. I anticipated this and ordered for more than the number I had attending the wedding. We ended up cutting into the top tier which we didn’t want to save but are most likely going to order another one prior to our one year anniversary. I’m not a fan of fondant and wanted buttercream. The swiss buttercream they use is not only light and delicious but also very beautiful. I cannot wait til I order my 1 year anniversary cake (which they recommend over saving the top tier)! Too bad we have to wait a year because our wedding was last weekend!

Gamma’s Cakes – Menu with Prices – 3842 E Norwalk Dr SE, Grand Rapids

She made my wedding cake last year and it was amazing. We didn’t exactly know what we wated and she helped us design a beautiful cake. I loved it so much. It was so beautiful and tasted great. I would go back to her again for another big event. Her house was very beautiful and smelt amazing. All you could smell was the cakes and that defidently made me happy that we chose her to make the cake. She was very clean and very professional. Thank you so much for such a beautiful cake.

Culinaria Restaurant & Events – Menu with Prices – 5732 Kennedy Rd, Mississauga

This is such a great place to hold any event. I live in the U.S. but my friend was having her wedding in the area and we stumbled upon Culinaria Restaurant to use as our venue for a pre-wedding dinner. I had sent them an email about the event and they were very responsive and accommodating. We had set up everything for the pre-wedding dinner. I only had pictures to go off by the time of the event and never had an opportunity to see the venue. When I arrived an hour early to set up for the event, I was thoroughly surprised. The place was so beautiful and very professional. It far exceeded by expectations. We set up for the event and they were super helpful. Also the food was amazing. We had a preset that we designed before the event and it was very reasonable. I live in NYC and the food was better than some of the michelin restaurants I’ve been to and pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend this place for any venues and parties.

Sweet Couture Designer Cakes – Menu with Prices – 2560 19th St SE, Salem

This was the perfect dream wedding cake in every single way. We wanted a birch tree cake (we also didn’t want to end up paying thousands of dollars) that looked amazing and tasted delicious and this was the most beautiful cake I have ever seen and the most delicious! When we went in for our tasting, Sherry was so friendly and knowledgeable. She gave us samples of all her cakes (we weren’t sure what flavors we wanted at all) and they were THE BEST cake we have ever had. My now husband, mom and I all were blown away. No where else we tried came anywhere close to the flavor and quality here. We also checked out places that were not nearly as high quality that were almost the same price! Sherry was extremely flexible with us and did an amazing job setting up our cake. We added GF cupcakes to our order a month out with no issues (these were also the best GF cake we’ve had) and everything looked beautiful. We made our own pinecone cake toppers and Sherry set them up for us the day of. She brought back up cake stands too. If you have any event and need a delicious and beautiful cake, Sweet Couture is without a doubt the perfect choice! Thank you!!!

Ashley Bakery – Menu with Prices – 1662 Savannah Hwy, Charleston

Used this place for my wedding this past weekend. Excellent work. They made us 4 dozen cupcakes. The icing was amazing. Many different flavors to choose from. Easy to work with. They made us a 3 layer wedding cake with each layer being a different flavor. It tasted amazing. Beautiful cake design. The guest liked the taste of the cake. I would recommend this bakery for cupcakes and any type of cakes. Very pleased with the results. Staff was great and delivered on time. Not cheap but probably reasonable priced and in line with pricing of other bakeries. I recommend this bakery!

Beyond The Box Catering – Menu with Prices – 2544 W Commerce St, Dallas

I had Beyond the Box Weddings cater my wedding reception at the Dallas Arboretum in August 2019. I contacted many different vendors for pricing, options, etc. and Megan de Farcy from Beyond The Box immediately stood out as the best manager/administrator. Her responses were prompt, professional, reasonable and best of all – when I gave her a list of things I wanted changed, information about, etc. she would answer EVERY DETAIL. That, combined with their fair pricing, full service catering, and wide good range of menu options led me to choose them to cater our reception, and I am so glad that I did. We did the “Italian buffet” with a lot of custom options (which the FREE taste testing really helped us sculpt our menu), and the food was delicious. I asked Megan if they could do some sort of a custom braised beef short rib in a red sauce for a beef dish, and they absolutely crushed it. I had many tell me how good the food was – from the roasted vegetables, to the chicken Parmesan and many, many people that loved the braised beef short rib (myself including, my mouth is watering right now…). That’s just talking about the food – I also had Beyond the Box run the bar, set up linens, etc. and they were extremely flexible and exceeded my expectations in all aspects. I’d highly recommend Megan and Beyond The Box for your next event, they’re a real professional team.

Cakes By Annette – Menu with Prices – 4014 Derbyshire Ln, Fredericksburg

When you go for your tasting don’t be fooled by the location. She works out of her kitchen. You are in the right place :). We had an outdoors themed wedding and we wanted the cake to look like wooden logs, tree stumps stacked on top of each other with our initials engraved on the side. When we did the cutting, people were surprised because they didn’t even notice that it was ‘the cake.’ It looked so realistic they thought it was another decoration. Almost all of the cake was consumed by our guests and as most of the other reviews will tell you, the cake was moist and tasty! It looked amazing and tasted great! Home run Annette! Our cake was three different layers (a 12″, 10″ and 8″) each with it’s own icing/cake/filling combination. Annette was extremely responsive with our questions and flexible about the tasting. The tastings are setup where you choose a few icing/cake combinations and then choose filling flavors to try with each icing/cake combination. It was a very pleasant experience. All of the options were so good it was difficult to choose! We asked to have her setup delivery of the cake to the venue, which was on time and correct. Altogether a great service!

The Cookie Bar – Menu with Prices – 6290 McLeod Dr Suite 120, Las Vegas

I have nothing but glowing reviews for The Cookie Bar! The flavors they offer and so fun and inventive and the cookies are well made to boot. However, I knew they were going to get my return business when I (last minute) asked if they would be able to to do a personalized cookie cake for my nephew’s 21st birthday. They were personable, friendly, and so professional in taking my order. They worked with me in personalizing the cake with an actual photograph and made the other decorations very “21st birthday” specific. Of the photo options I gave them, the photo they chose translated perfectly onto the cake. They delivered it earlier than I would have anticipated and were prompt in notifying me of delivery. Moreover, the price for the cake and delivery were great. I can’t say enough about how fabulous I think this company is! Thank you, Cookie Bar LV, you did a phenomenal job!
