The Reviews

Kim did a wonderful job on the cake. She did an original cake that I really wanted. We designed the cake together and she got exactly what I wanted. When I saw the cake on my wedding day, it was exactly what I wanted. She even got the ribbon I used on the cake from my florist. It was a beautiful cake and everyone loved it. We ate the left overs for a week, and we aren’t even taking apart a piece yet! That’s how good it was. She also did the groom’s cake which was a very special cake for me. It was delicious and also designed very well. She made a great game of the NFL themed cake, with the Green Bay Packer jersey’s and cheese head hats. The were very realistic and the jersey’s even had the player’s names and number’s. It was fantastic. Both cakes looked great and were very tasty. We will definitely be using Cakes by Kemi again. Thanks for everything!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Christie and Cakes by Kemi. Our cake tasting was so much fun and very well presented. I was kind of a foodie who was very picky about our cake and I was blown away by how good it was. There was a large variety of options and all of them tasted great. We were also able to make our cake a little different by choosing three flavors. We were still able to have a good variety such as oreo, vanilla, pink champagne, strawberry, etc. Our cake looked exactly the way we wanted it to and again tasted delicious. We had a very low key wedding and so I don’t have many memories of the day besides getting ready and enjoying each other’s company before the party. I was in awe of how the dessert table turned out. It was better than I could have ever imagined! All the pies and cookies were packaged very nicely with great instructions for serving and tips for keeping them fresh until our anniversary. I was very impressed with how professional it was and how much they cared about our event. I wish I could remember their name so I could thank them!

PS - our cake was a three layer, all flavor, with a butter cream frosting that was amazing and very different from what I’m used to. That helped it to have a very unique taste.

Kemi did a wonderful job on our cake. I first tasted her cake at a wedding show here in Jonesboro. It was by far the best cake I had ever tasted. When I called her to set up an appointment for a cake tasting, she was very pleasant on the phone. When I came in for the cake tasting, she had everything ready for us. She had five different flavors of cakes and five different flavors of fillings. She explained each one, and gave us time to sample them all. We chose our cake flavors and then decided on the filling flavors. We weren’t allowed to choose more than one filling for each layer, but it was nice to know that there was at least that many choices to choose from. She did a two layer cake for us with each layer having it’s own flavor. I had chosen chocolate and caramel, and she had a vanilla layer with one of two fillings. I wasn’t sure which one at first, but after we decided on the flavors, she showed us the cake she had already made for us to see which one she used for the filling. It was a very professional experience, and I knew I had made a good decision to choose Cakes by Kemi to do my wedding cake. On the wedding day, the cake was absolutely beautiful, and was just what I had wanted. It was delivered to the venue on time, and there was never any doubt that everything was going to go absolutely perfectly. My guests were very impressed with the cake, and so were I. After the wedding, we had a little bit of the left over cake. We were able to freeze it, and then after a couple of weeks, we were able to eat it. It was still just as delicious as the day we had it at the wedding. I never had any doubt that Cakes by Kemi would be the best place to go for our wedding cake. After trying her samples, we knew we were in the right place.

Wow, I simply can not say enough about the outstanding cake that Kemi made for me! I found Kemi through my sister, who was her first cake client. My sister highly recommended her, saying not only are her cakes beautiful, but they also taste great. I knew I needed to get my cake from her. I am so glad I got to her first, before all the cake crazies, because she is honestly the only one who I would recommend for your cake. She is great with making up the flavors you want, and is very prompt and easy to work with. I just gave her some ideas of what I wanted, and she was able to come up with a design that went along with what I wanted my cake to look like. On top of it all, it was a three tier cake with each layer’s flavor being different and very yummy! Her name is also very cute! I can’t wait to eat the top layer in a year! LOL! Well, maybe I will save it for next year! HA!
