The Reviews

Our Wedding cake was so amazing! It was beautiful and tasted even better! I’m not a big cake person but I could eat a whole piece of this cake! It’s so moist and delicious and the frosting is amazing! The white chocolate mousse filling is to die for! We choose a lemon cake with lemon and raspberry filling, key lime cake with key lime and raspberry filling, and chocolate with chocolate and raspberry filling. They were all so amazing! I don’t think I had a chance to try the cheesecake filling on the lemon but I would definitely choose that over the normal filling! The outside of the cake looked exactly how I wanted it! I brought in pictures of what I wanted and how I wanted it to look and the execution was perfect! Oh my gosh the delivery was so perfect too! It was one less thing to worry about! I got married at the beach and they delivered it right to the cake table! How awesome! I can’t say enough good things about this bakery! I will definitely be coming back for more sweets soon!

Where do I even begin? With the amount of services that they offer, it is hard to choose which to use. So I decided to go with their cake services. They have a wide variety of flavors for your cake and filling. I love the fact that they make the fillings fresh (not from a mix). They use fresh fruit in all their cakes! I have had their cakes before and it is delicious. So I decided to use them for my cake. I was able to make my cake look the way that I wanted. The cake was delicious. We had some left over and ate it for dinner for a few days. The cake is so good that I am not going to freeze it for a year. (But you can if you want!) The best part is that they make you a small cake on your 1st wedding anniversary so that you don’t have to eat frozen cake. I highly recommend them!

We had a beach wedding at the Oceanarium and our cake was included in the cost of the wedding package. But, we were able to work with the hotel to have our cake made by Beaches. The cake was delicious and very pretty!! We were able to pick out the flavors we wanted and the design of the cake. We even had a few people tell us that it was the best wedding cake they ever had :)

The only problem was that when we went to cut the cake the hotel staff didn’t know that we could just cut a slice of cake and not a whole slice like normal. So, our cake-cutting pictures are a little sad…just a slice and then a knife cutting it. But, it still tasted delicious and we were able to take the rest home as one big cake :)

Also, the cake was very moist and flavorful. The frosting was good, but a little too sweet for my personal liking. I like a more savory frosting. But, it was still good.

The only reason that I give them 4 stars instead of 5 is that they were not able to duplicate the cake exactly the day of the wedding. I had asked for a specific color for the frosting and it was much too light or something. But, it still tasted great.
