Anna's cakes are some of the best I've ever seen! Her creativity is endless and each time I think she can't top herself she does! Any bride would be lucky to have her! And the taste.. you just can't beat it.. Her Coconut Cake is to die for!! :)
Anna makes beautiful and really yummy cakes! I have had the honor of tasting quite a few and they are awesome.
All I have to say about Anna Cakes is: perfection! She knows exactly how to bring each couple's personalities and desires to their cakes and the end result is always amazing. Anna's creativity and attentional to detail is only rivaled by how delicious the cake underneath the art tastes.
Yummy Yummy is what we have to say about Anna Cakes. Anna is a pleasure to work with and the cakes are amazing, so detailed. I look forward to recommending more events in the future.
Anna's cakes are absolutely delicious and beautiful. You will be satisfied!
Unique and beautiful cakes that taste just as good as they look. Excellent craftsman.

Frequently Asked Questions for Wedding Cake
Do you offer private tastings or open house tastings?
Anna Cakes offers private tastings. You choose the flavors, we bake them fresh! Note: Please limit choices to 2 cake flavors, and 4 fillings. A tasting is for the purpose of sampling the quality, rather than every flavor offered. In order to do that, we would have to freeze cakes. Bleh!
 
What are your tasting hours?
Tastings are normally scheduled on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, between 12pm and 8pm.
 
Describe how you price, such as by slice or by tier, for your cakes?
Cakes are priced by the slice. Buttercream cakes start at $3.50/serving. Fondant covered cakes (porcelain-smooth finish) start at $4.50/serving. Cupcakes start at $2.50 each, and are sold in groups of 2 doz. Prices increase from there, depending on the intricacy of the design. *Please note there is a minimum order requirement of $100.00 on all custom cakes.
 
Does the price include the top tier of the cake?
Anna Cakes does not charge for the top tier. This is your anniversary cake...our gift! Top tiers generally serve 8-12, and are traditionally saved and frozen, to be eaten on your 1 year anniversary. Some, less brave couples, choose to eat their top tier on their 1 month anniversary, or even the following morning with a little Mimosa! ;-)
 
Do you offer custom cakes, or do you work with pre-designed styles?
We can design something that is unique to you. We can also replicate anything you have a photo of.
 
On average, how far in advance of the event do you prepare the cake?
Usually baking begins 1 day prior to the event. Freshness is of upmost importance. We start baking as close to your delivery time as possible. Most wedding cakes take between 15 - 20 hours to complete.
 
How many cakes do you schedule for a typical weekend?
We try to limit the number of wedding cakes per weekend to four. Scheduling too many cakes would not allow for the time and attention to detail that is required, to make each cake a masterpiece.
 
Will you work with the client's florist to garnish the cake?
Flower arranging is one of Anna Cakes' specialties! You can coordinate with your florist to leave the flowers you have chosen for your cake. Flower placement is included in your delivery and set-up. Anna personally designs/arranges all of her cake's fresh flowers. This is a firm policy, held in place because of both health and safety reasons, and artistic integrity. It is our belief that each cake is a work of art, and a direct reflection of our company. Anna Cakes sees each design from start to finish.
 
What (if any) cake accessories, such as a cake stand or cake cutter, do you rent out?
Cake stands, cake plates, flower spikes, decorative cake separators and columns are all available for rent. A minimum $75.00 deposit is required for cake display equipment. Deposit amounts may increase, based on replacement cost. Your deposit is refunded, minus a $25.00 rental charge, upon timely return of items. Items are due the Tuesday following the event.
 
Do you offer delivery? If yes, how much is your average delivery fee?
Delivery cost is based on distance. $25.00/15 miles is the guide. Most deliveries are $25.00 -- $50.00. Our delivery charge includes cake set-up, flower placement, and table decoration.
