Gretchen is a delight to work with. She is highly organized, thorough, a complete artist and her kitchen is SPOTLESS. She has a number of cakes on display so you can understand height, design, color, and composition. In my case I had a very specific idea of what I was looking for and I can honestly say that when I walked into the reception and saw the cake it took my breath away!

I also greatly appreciate the fact that the cake tasted absolutely delicious. My husband loves cake and he is still talking about it as are my guests. How many weddings do you go to where the cake is beautiful but not very tasty? It won't happen with Gretchen.

I highly recommend her and cannot wait to attend another wedding where she is the cake artist.

Gretchen is a true professional - she was extremely organized and well-prepared for our cake tasting at her house. We went in knowing what we wanted our cake to look like and she executed it perfectly and it tasted great (I'd definitely recommend the Strawberry Grand Marnier). Also, although we chose a simpler cake, we had the pleasure of seeing her more elaborate cakes - again, they looked perfect. She also has so many other wonderful flavors to choose from. I would definitely recommend her!

Gretchen Ellison, from Enchanted Wedding Cakes, is wonderful and her cakes are gorgeous AND delicious!! Gretchen welcomed us into her home, where she bakes and designs all her cakes. She was unbelievably welcoming and incredibly kind. She worked with us to understand exactly what we wanted our cake to look like, she showed us many sample designs (photographs and models). She baked, specifically for us, a few of her flavors to allow us to decide what flavors to include in our cake.
The cake came out beautifully! Her hard work and attention to detail really showed in the sugar flowers, which she perfectly matched to the flowers present at the wedding reception. Each flavor we included was delicious!
Gretchen added a very special touch by sending us a congratulations letter with a photograph of our cake. Very nice! She also sends the bride and groom a top layer of a cake as a 1 year anniversary gift!
I highly recommend Enchanted Wedding Cakes - not only for the design and taste of the cake, but working with them was really a pleasure.

Gretchen is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is professional, attentive, and made a stunningly beautiful, and delicious, cake for our outdoor wedding. She coordinated the delivery and floral decoration with our caterer and florist, and post-wedding, sent beautiful photos of the cake as it was set up for the reception. I would strongly suggest Enchanted Wedding Cakes for your wedding cake. Be sure to set up a tasting and design session, it's not to be missed!!!

Guests are still calling to say how mytasty and beautiful our wedding cake was! Gretchen's baking and decorating ability is exquisite and we were grateful that there was some cake left over so that we could enjoy it for 2 days following our reception. She created lilly of the valley sugar paste flowers that looked truly lifelike and was able to incorporate the cake topper used in my parent's wedding cake from 1944, even though a custom sugar base had to be created. We can't wait for our 1st anniversary cake from Gretchen!

We have been married almost a month and we still have wedding guests calling to tell us how wonderful our cake looked and tasted. Enchanted Cakes was truly amazing. Gretchen was so professional, sweet and wonderful to work with. She has so many different options to choose from. Our cake was truly unique and amazing. We couldn't have imagined it better and it also tasted just as good as it looked.

Gretchen is the most amazing person you will ever work with! She had a big task ahead of her with a bride and a groom who hate sweets in general and a guest list with never-ending allergies. She took obsessive amounts of notes in order to make sure everything was 100% perfect and was the queen of calling and emailing whenever she had an idea to make the cake even more gorgeous and delicious. Also, she gives a discount if your cake is over $800 and you received a referral card from your vendor. You will not be disappointed if you choose Enchanted Wedding Cakes!

Gretchen was extremely easy to get in touch with. The quality of her cake was amazing and everyone at the wedding commented on how good the cake was. Also, one of the special things is that they give you the option of keeping the top of your cake or getting a new top on your one year anniversary. . how great is that! She answered all my questions and was very helpful and realistic in her options. She made you feel special and a top priority!

they worked very closely with I and my mother and groom who were a part of this process. We knew what shape we wanted and the design of it so we sketched it out the best we could they would start and then send up pics back we would go back and forth and that happened so that we could end up having the cake I dreamed for my whole life. I was so amazed how patient they were and how willing to please me with implementing all my ideas into the most beautiful cake, I thought it was a work of art.

These wedding cakes are to die for. Most wedding cakes are dry and are really only at the wedding for looks or tradition, but not this cake. You will be extremely satisfied with this. My wedding cake was not only the most beautiful cake that I have ever seen, it was the best tasting cake I have ever tasted. To this day, 3 years after our wedding, my husband and I drool over the thought of it. Also, in the price of the cake, you receive a free anniversary cake. No need to worry about freezing the top of your cake, which freezes beautifully by the way, you will get a brand new fresh one a year later. My only wish is I could get one every year for the rest of my life (If not more)! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! And, Gretchen is the nicest woman you will ever meet. Extremely willing to work with you! Go for a cake testing today! You won't regret it! My husband and I may get remarried just for the cake! Ha Ha Ha!
