The Reviews

Written By: Dynah Melton

This was the first and only wedding cake we did. We didn’t want to do a big tiered cake. We wanted simple. A single layer. No flowers or fussy details. Just delicious cake and a variety of flavors.

We did a single layer cake in three different flavors. We had a different flavor and filling in each tier.

The only extra cost was if we wanted a different flavor or filling. But we wanted all the tiers the same so it wasn’t extra.

They were very flexible and easy to work with. The cake was delicious and very reasonably priced.

We did have a few people take the leftovers home. But we had more than one set of parents come by to grab an extra tier or two.

I would do it again in a heartbeat. And I can’t wait to eat this cake again on our anniversary.

The only thing was I was hoping they would do a little better on the decorating. But it was still quite tasty.

I contacted Michelle for my wedding cake, and we had a great meeting and brainstorming session. She showed me lots of different pictures of previous cakes she had done, and I was able to pick and choose what I liked, and she was very accommodating to my needs. I brought several different cake flavors and fillings with me, and we were able to combine them all into different tiers of the cake. She was very professional and knowledgeable, and we left the meeting talking about different ways to enhance the flavors of the cake. I actually contacted her because another baker I was looking at had added a filling that was not gluten-free, and I wanted to make sure my cake was gluten-free. Michelle assured me that it was, and she even provided a test cake that I was able to bring home and try with my husband (who is very picky when it comes to baked goods). We had a great experience, and we were very pleased with the flavors and designs of the cakes. On my wedding day, I did not get to see the cake that was made for me, but it was delivered and placed exactly where it needed to be. It was a joy to meet with Michelle and see her creative touch in person. I was very pleased with the outcome, and I got a ton of compliments on the cake from my guests. It was a pleasure working with such a great baker!
