The Reviews

Written By: Laraine Olson

We recently had a wedding and had a choice of bakeries to provide the cake for the wedding. We decided to use Boonzaaaijer because of their history of using only buttercream frosting (no fondant) and their pastries are delicious. They are located in the historic Kalamazoo area and have an open house once a month. At the tasting we attended, we loved the cakes in the shape of the bride and groom’s countries of origin. We selected the flavors we wanted to try for the cake and they made mini cakes just for us. After selecting our flavors and shape, the staff made sketches for the cake design. The sketches showed the country flags in the colors we requested and the design was intricate. We communicated with the staff via email, made any changes we wanted, and sent them a final version. We also decided to order some pastries for the wedding day. We selected 9 different pastries and they all were baked the day of our wedding. Our guests loved the taste and the design of our cake. We selected Boonzaaaijer because of their history and their ability to make delicious cakes. They were able to make a cake that was intricate and had a different flavor for every layer. For the pastries we selected, we got a variety of flavors and fillings. The staff was friendly and easy to work with. They had a drawing for each type of pastry so we knew what the pastries looked like. Everything was delivered to the venue on time. Overall we had a beautiful cake and a variety of delicious pastries.
