The Reviews

Written By: Gayla Yates

I am a wedding cake decorator and would love to have this cake at my wedding (if it weren’t for the fact that I am a man). This cake is beyond delicious, it is also absolutely beautiful. You can get a lot of cake for the money with this vendor (only if you care about that though). They have a lot of different flavors and some that are less common are just as tasty as the popular ones (carrot cake and buttermilk are mine). The design part was something I didn’t try, but they have a lot of experience and have a lot of popular designs that are beautiful. They only do buttercream frosting (no fondant) and the designs are all done in fondant, but the cake itself is not fondant, it is 100% butter and sugar, so you get the best of both worlds.

TL;DR: This cake is both beautiful and delicious, they have less common flavors too and the flavors aren’t just popular ones. They use buttercream but don’t use fondant.

I don’t know if I can put it into words how perfect our cake was for our big day. Buttery Bar did a fabulous job of listening to my ideas and making it come to life. We wanted an elegant, simple cake decorated with flowers and edible glitter and our cake came out just like we wanted. We also wanted to incorporate our city of Boston on the cake and they were able to make a map of South Boston with a light blue tint and our neighborhood circled in red. The cake was perfect and delicious and our guests were raving, but the true test was when we decided to eat all of our cake before the big dance and skip a piece for the anniversary. We were both content when we bit into our cake and realized it was beyond delicious. It was rich, tasty, with just the right amount of sweetness and delicious with each bite. I can’t wait to make it an annual event to have our cake every anniversary. Thanks again for making our cake dreams come true!
