Great find….Tasted as good as it looked!

This was very last minute (the day before actually). Showed them a picture of what I was looking for with a few modifications and it was done the very next day! Tasted as good as it looked. Guests all asked where I had the cake made. Made my daughter’s 21st birthday “sweeter”.

Perfect Wedding Cake

Lakes Cakes did an amazing job on our wedding cake. I sent Heidi a picture of what I wanted it to look like with a few modifications, and she nailed it. It looked exactly how I wanted it to look. It was beautiful. It's not just the look of the cake though. The taste of the cake is delicious. She offers a pickup tasting option which is super convenient. Lakes Cakes is more affordable than a lot of other companies that produce similar products. I definitely recommend them without hesitation.

Guests are stilling complimenting me about my cake

The wedding cake was absolutely perfect. Not only beautiful but
outstandingly delicious!
It was served as a second desert at the restaurant, hand delivered
to each guest by my new husband and and me and the raves
started with the first table and continued till the last piece was
served.
We sincerely thank you for the perfect end to a beautiful wedding
dinner. I am sure I'll be asked for your name and number many
times. Thank you again!

Wonderful experience!

I am extremely pleased with the quality of service I received from Lakes Cakes. I sent them a photo of my desired design and number of servings needed, and they provided me with an "out the door" quote. Sampling the cakes was very convenient. I simply scheduled a sample box pickup. My fiancée and I were impressed with the samples. Other places gave us a couple tiny pieces of cake, while Lakes Cakes gave us 8 cupcake sized pieces of cake and then some mousses and things. On our wedding day, the cake was beautiful and tasted delicious!!

No Cake Leftovers at this wedding!

We loved LakesCakes. Their location is out of their home which is personable and conveniently located. We loved almost every kind of cake & mouse filling that we tried. Their cake was very affordable. We compared their pricing to Costco, and as Costco price was cheaper, LakesCakes provided more layers of cake per slice, than Costco. We were able to rent the cake stand which made our cake pictures beautiful. Everyone loved the 5 different kinds of cake that we chose and we did not have any left over.

We had two wedding cakes at our wedding. One regular one and one gluten and dairy free cake, which was quite a challenge. Lakes Cakes did an amazing job. The taste was great and they looked amazing. We loved their butter cream.
I can highly recommend Lakes Cakes.

Lakes Cakes was everything we could have hoped for in a cake provider. They provided a tasting box customized with the flavors which had already been decided, that remained excellent across three flights and the several days between my wife's initial tasting and my own. They were helpful trying to work within our budget, followed our particular requests for a naked style cake with minimal frosting perfectly, and were flexible in their delivery to ensure neither of us had to worry about the cake after the initial order. I could not recommend them highly enough.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
