The Reviews

Written By: Rowena Burnett

We found Bella Cakes at the VMAS Bridal Show and loved their sample cakes. Our cake was beautifully decorated and we loved the flavors. We chose red velvet and cookies and cream for our flavors. The cake was moist, the frosting was not waxy at all, and the flavor was great. Our second tier was pink champagne, and third tier was white chocolate with bavarian cream. We ordered a smaller cake ( 2 tiers ) to see if we would like it and loved the size. We loved the design and loved the flavors. We did a tasting at their store in newsport to pick out our flavors and loved the service. The price was right and the cake was even better. We cant wait to eat our cake again someday. If you want a tasty cake with great flavor, and a great company to work with, we would highly recommend Bella Cakes! Thanks! Kathryn and Jason

My husband and I were married at the Newport Hotel on May 2, 2019. Our wedding planner, Stephanie McLaurin of Bella Cakes, agreed to make and deliver two wedding cakes for us: a 3-tiered wedding cake and a grooms cake. I have to say, I think she went above and beyond in both cases. With the wedding cake, she made a cake that was very similar to the ones my husband and I had collected as examples. For the grooms cake, she made a cake that was very similar to the ones my husband and I had collected as examples. In both cases, I didn’t have any input into the design process. In fact, I was pretty vague on the details. But what Stephanie created were two cakes that were not only similar to the examples we provided, but also BEAUTIFUL. And that’s not all. She also agreed to a very special request. I wanted to use a special music note cake stand that was very close to my heart. It was very special to me, and I wanted to add it to the wedding cake. She not only agreed to make the cake stand operational, but she also created a very special background for the stand, using some of the same decorative techniques that I like. I was very grateful for all of this. And finally, she created delicious flavors of cake and fillings that complemented each other, which is not always an easy thing to do. I was very impressed by all of this, and ultimately, that’s why I hired her to make my wedding cake. And then, as an extra bonus, she also made a gluten-free cake for me, so I could enjoy some of the cake at the wedding. Very impressive! Overall, I’m very happy with my wedding cakes. They were not only delicious, but they were beautiful as well. I’m very grateful to have met Stephanie and worked with Bella Cakes. She is very talented, and I would recommend her to anyone!!
