The Reviews

Christina did a wonderful job on our cake. We had a cake tasting a year before we were married and it was by far one of the best things that happened to us during the planning process. She gave us a sampling of everything that was available and then let us take our time to decide what we wanted. She was very flexible with our decision to change the flavor of one of the layers a year before the wedding. The cake that she made for us was beautiful and very tasty. When I walked into the reception I was blown away by the cake she had made. It was so beautiful that I couldn’t take my eyes of it for the longest time. All of our guests kept complementing us on the delicious cake. Cakes by Christina was everything that we wanted in a cake vendor and more. Highly recommended!

Christina did a wonderful job on our cake. We had a 4 layer cake with an extra top layer of a different flavor. We wanted to keep the top layer to have on our 1 year anniversary, but we also got to take the top layer that we had frozen home with us the day of the wedding. ( most places only give you the top layer the day after). So the cake was so fresh and the flavors were wonderful. The cake was so beautiful. We had a design that involved ribbon and I was worried that it would not look right, but it turned out perfect and the ribbon was so soft and beautiful. The cake was so fresh and the flavors were wonderful. I don’t know if I will be able to wait for our anniversary to have it again! We also had a different flavor for each layer. We had strawberry lemon, buttercream, dark chocolate mousse & vanilla with Bavarian cream. I am not a fan of lemon, but I loved the strawberry lemon! I am in love with the vanilla with Bavarian cream! I am sure I will be calling Cakes by Christina soon for some of each!

We had our wedding this past July and I am still getting messages asking me to review their cake and cupcakes. I was actually going to write a bad review until I thought about this. They are so busy and popular that they probably don’t even remember us. So I thought of one of my friends that used them for their wedding. They didn’t even remember her so she had to go back multiple times before they even checked their book. I understand that it is competitive to get into a good school, but these people take it to the extreme. I also understand that mistakes are a part of life, but I think that it is extremely unprofessional to have to many phone calls before we even had our cake. We got our cupcakes from another store and our cake was beautiful, until they forgot to add the decorations we had ordered and brought it back. A part of me is glad that they forgot because otherwise we wouldn’t have had it. I was really upset at the time because I expected this kind of thing when we booked but not from a cake/cupcake place. They also lost our cake topper that we had made. I made multiple to-do’s on my planner for this but it was never done. At one point I even had to ask them to make a new one. I also found their prices to be extremely high for what we get. Their cupcakes are great but their cakes are extremely expensive. The one thing that I did like is that they at least tried their hardest. The calls and lost items were a part of becoming successful and I am sure that it isn’t the first time this has happened. I know that everything happens for a reason, but I still find their high prices extremely upsetting. I think that they forget that we are spending a lot because we are just another number. They could take our money and not give us the service that we deserve. I also don’t like that they make us feel like we are just another number. Overall I think that they are great but I don’t think that they will last very long with this type of business mentality.
