The most delicious wedding cake!
Dream Cakes created the most beautiful (and delicious!) wedding cake we could have ever imagined. They hand-painted gorgeous floral details that perfectly matched our wedding flowers. The cake was truly a work of art and almost too stunning to cut into. The design was so thoughtful and cohesive with the rest of our décor, and it wowed both us and our guests.
And the flavors were unforgettable. We chose chocolate with toffee crunch and white cake with lemon curd and fresh berries, and both were absolutely divine. Guests were lining up for seconds and are still talking about how good it was!
Dream Cakes not only delivered on flavor and beauty but also exceeded our expectations in every way. Their artistry, creativity, and attention to detail made our cake one of the highlights of the reception. -

Best cake ever!
Our wedding cake was absolutely stunning and tasted even better than it looked! We chose the strawberry shortcake with homemade buttercream—truly next-level delicious. We loved it so much! The tasting was such a fun experience (every flavor was amazing!) Johannah is incredibly talented. Couldn’t recommend more! -

A perfect choice!
Our wedding cake was delicious and beautiful! After sampling a few places, this was heads and above what came to expect from cake tasting. Johannah was so fun to work with and put up with us as we leafed through each and every page of her example work. They are also extremely flexible - all three tiers were a different flavor. Dream Cakes has everything down to a very, very delicious science. If you’re thinking about it, do yourself a favor and book with Dream Cakes!-

Dream Cakes is the best!
We worked with Johanna from Dream Cakes. She was responsive, professional, and easy to work with. We went with a 2-tier cutting cake just for us, and it was perfect! It was delicious, and absolutely beautiful. We could not be happier with our choice to go with Dream Cakes for our wedding and are already looking forward to having more cake on our first anniversary! -

Wedding cake bakery
Dream cakes was great to work with! Johannah really brought to life a beautiful cake for us and was very easy to work with. This bakery is one of the highest rated in the Portland metro area, and it's clear why! Quality in the design and the taste we're definitely there and we loved the final product! Can't recommend enough. -

Incredible
After a last minute closure of our original bakery our wedding planner connected us with Dream Cakes. Wow, we were blown away! Not only we're they able to fit us in but from the consultation on every design choice, guest count change etc was handle so well and we were put at ease. Johannah collaborated so well with our other vendors to include the florals and calligraphy used throughout our wedding. The flavors were amazing and I would highly recommend them to everyone! -

A Work of Art
My wife and I were very pleased with the cake that Johanna made for us! Not only did the cake taste wonderful, but it looked so good that it was simply a work of art. We felt that we couldn't eat it because it was so pretty.
Aside from the wonderful cake we had, Johanna did a great job when she met with us to go over the details of the cake to learn what we wanted.
We would highly recommned Dream Cakes for your wedding cake -- you won't be disappointed at all! -

Delicious!
Johannah was able to work with our desire to have a "couples cake" that was a small 7" round for our cutting ceremony. We stuck with a very simple design to compliment our dessert table, and she made it absolutely beautiful and SO delicious. Her tasting was also a really easy process, one that we really enjoyed. She provided 3 small cakes to take home and try without the awkwardness of someone staring at you while you judge their work. I would recommend her bakery to anyone for any occasion, and will definitely be back for my next cake-need! (In case you feel like drooling, she's on Instagram - @dreamcakespdx) -

Best Wedding Cake I've Ever Had
Dream Cakes made the best wedding cake I've ever had! Wedding cake is a big deal in my family, and everyone couldn't stop raving about it. They were so great to work with - they took my design ideas and made it exactly how I pictured! And I can't recommend the chocolate with salted caramel flavor enough. You can't go wrong with a wedding cake from Dream Cakes! -

Delicious Cake and Excellent Customer Service
Dream Cakes lived up to their name – they are a dream to work with and you’ll be dreaming of their cake afterward! Every stage working with Johannah was a breeze. Not only was the cake beautiful, it was delicious and reasonably priced. We moved to New York City this summer but we have already talked about getting Dream Cakes when we come back to visit. Thank you, Dream Cakes!

Extraordinary & Delicious
I loved working with Dream Cakes and am so happy they made our cake. They clearly know what they’re doing, and everything we tried was delicious. They listened to our ideas and came up with helpful suggestions and on the day of the wedding, our cake was gorgeous and just perfect. It was delicious as well - so many of the guests commented on how good the cake was! Dream Cakes is definitely the way to go - highly recommend! -

Extroardinary!
Dream Cakes produced an incredible chocolate and white/lemon cake for our wedding this past weekend. They were extremely easy to work with and also vocal when our requests wouldn't produce a great product (bakers with some hard rules produce the best product!). Numerous guests commented that not only was this the best wedding cake they had, but perhaps the best cake they'd had period. -

Understanding
Our cake was so gorgeous!! Everyone loved the design and the flavors that we chose. People that normally don’t like eating cake thought it was delicious. We are happy we went with fondant because it made our marble cake look amazing! Thank you Dream Cakes for making our cake exactly as we envisioned!! -

A cake straight from your dreams!
Our cake was exceptionally delicious, immaculately beautiful, and a highlight of the evening for so many people. I've been told by more then one guest that our wedding cake was: hands down, the best cake they've ever eaten. It was an art piece in its own right, and such a special part of the affair. I would highly recommend Dream Cakes. They made this process easy, fun, and incredibly appetizing! -

Cannot say enough good things about our experience with Dream Cakes. The quality of cake was impeccable, even our guests that don't like cake said it was amazing. If you're getting married in the PNW, this is the place to get your cake!! -

Wow! I am so impressed with Dream Cakes. I shared my vision with them and set a few photos and they created exactly what I pictured and beyond! I was very impressed with the communication this was one of the best things about working with them. They were incredibly responsive and helpful which made the planning process less stressful. She was patient with my millions of questions and created a delicious and beautiful cake. I highly recommend ordering from Dream Cakes! -

Johannah was absolutely amazing to work with. She makes a delicious cake, and on top of that has so much creativity and artistry in her work. We really did not give her a ton of guidance on what type of design we liked, we just told her we like modern looks, berries and some shine. The cake she delivered was above and beyond my imagination - she took the photos and ideas that we gave her and truly made them her own. Using our ideas and building off of them, creating something truly unique and beautiful. And yummy. Really Yummy! Thank you Dream Cakes!!!! -

Johanna Zuniga and her talented team at Dream cakes created the wedding cake of my daughter's dreams. It was both extremely beautiful and delicious. There wasn't a scrap of cake left at the end of the evening , The Dream Cakes team is professional and filled with tons of incredible flavors and ideas. Working with them on the cake design was both easy and fun. I highly recommend them! -

THESE CAKES ARE SO GOOD. Johannah and her team are a dream to work with. For the tasting you get three mini cakes to take home and enjoy at your leisure – no one breathing over your shoulder waiting for you to taste it. The prices are super reasonable, especially for the quality you’re getting. Johannah is super nice and really responsive via email. We coordinated everything over email since we’re from out of town, and the cake turned out beautifully. Everyone loved it, especially me; I’m still thinking about it. You can’t go wrong with Dream Cakes for your wedding cake!

I don't think there's a more appropriate name than Dream Cakes because the cakes that come from Johannah are seriously delicious and dreamy. We opted for two flavors of cake for our wedding day and people couldn't decide which flavor they liked more, they were both seriously THAT delicious. One of the flavors we had was a carrot cake with a toffee crunch center and it was hands down the best carrot cake I've had in my life. Johannah was kind, professional, and obviously a talented baker. We've now been married for over a month and I'm still getting compliments on how delicious our cake was. If you're looking for the most delicious wedding cake in the Portland area, you have to go to Dream Cakes! -

BOOK DREAM CAKES for your wedding or any event! We met with many vendors and tasted a lot of cake but when we met with Johannah at Dream Cakes and tried a few samples.....we knew after the first bite. Rave reviews from ALL our guests. Johannah was a pleasure to work with and we never had a single doubt that the day of our daughter's wedding was going to be more special by her simply delicious cakes! -

Johannah at Dreamcakes is not only an amazing baker she was a lot of fun to work with! All of our communication was very professional and she was great about reaching out and getting the details on track. She provided us with a wedding cake to feed about 125 people and our wedding favors! Both were amazing! Our cake was beautiful designed and delicious. Majority of our wedding guests told me that it was the best wedding cake they have ever had and Keep up the hard work Johannah! I loved working with you and would recommend her to anyone! Needless to say, I'm excited to order an anniversary cake! -

We were planning from out of state so we weren't able to do a tasting in advance but everything about the cake was great the day of our wedding. We had the chocolate cake with salted caramel filling as well as lemon curd with berries for the other layers. -

We planned our wedding from Chicago and then San Francisco. It's kind of crazy to take a shot in the dark about wedding vendors, but we couldn't have been happier with our wedding cake from Johannah. She was very responsivve to emails. We went with dark chocolate with salted caramel and white cake with home-made lemon curd and fresh berry filling (two of the more popular options). I sent a few pictures of cake designs I liked, and when I showed up to the reception, and there was a beautiful wedding cake. And best of all, it was amazing. Our guests loved the cake and so did the bride and groom! -

Johannah's cake was the most delicious and beautiful wedding cake I've ever had. Our guests just loved it. We had two flavors: dark chocolate with raspberry filling and white cake with lemon curd and fresh berries, and both were incredibly delicious. Johannah also made shortbread cookies as favors for guests, which were so cute and also very tasty--most guests ate them before dinner had begun and were asking for more! Johannah was great to work with, and was so helpful in working with me entirely by email (I was planning from a distance). I wasn't sure how it would work to order a cake without even trying the flavors, but I shouldn't have worried! The cake and cookies were beautiful and so delicious, and I wouldn't have changed a thing. -

Dream Cakes was a part of our wedding package at Timberline Lodge and we could not have picked a better one ourselves! We were unable to do a tasting or meet in person before the wedding since we were coming from out of state so we coordinated through email and I mailed the ribbon. The cake was one of the best wedding cakes I have ever tasted and it was beautifully constructed! We got rave reviews about the look and taste, she captured exactly what we were looking for and we will be getting another one for one of our anniversaries! The only negative I can think of is there were so many delicious looking options for flavors it was hard to choose!!! -

In short, our cake was BEAUTIFUL, DELICIOUS, and everyone loved it! Johannah has it down! Her cakes are made from scratch with real butter, and the frosting is incredible. She can make buttercream frosting look so smooth that it looks like fondant, but tastes amazing. You'll have a hard time choosing flavors, as they are all wonderful, which is a good problem to have! She referred us to a company to make a custom cake topper which looked great as well. We tried a couple other places, but nobody came close to the taste of Johannah's cakes. -

Johannah was wonderful to work with! She was prompt in all communication, gave us a fantastic tasting prior to booking, and most importantly, bakes absolutely delicious cakes! The design was beautiful--we had both a small cake and different flavors of cupcakes. The cake, fillings, and frostings are all so tasty, and our guests loved them! We had so many compliments on our desserts. -

My daughter and fiance visited several vendors for cake tasting. Dream cakes were by far the most moist and tasty. Very creative flavors and filling options. Thank you, Johanna! -

Johannah was soooo awesome! She was super accommodating to the flavors we wanted for our cake. We took in the ideas we wanted for our wedding cake and she helped us come up with the perfect style and type of cake for us! It turned out absolutely amazing! The cake look and tasted awesome! Thank you so much, Dream Cakes! -

We worked with Johannah at Dream Cakes for our wedding cake and it was a wonderful experience! Our cake was beautiful and was delicious, I wish we could have ordered a second one! Johannah was incredibly accommodating, she worked with me entirely through email as I was planning our wedding from a different state- her patience and expertise will forever be appreciated. I would be happy to recommend Dream Cakes to anyone looking for a local bakery for their next event! -

BEST WEDDING CAKE EVER! I'm serious, Johannah makes the most delicious cakes. When meeting for our consultation she provided us with 3 mini cakes of her most popular flavors, which we were able to taste and share over a pint of beer at our favorite brewery down the street. So fun! We ended up choosing a white butter cake with white buttercream and filled with fresh raspberries and lemon curd. It was not only delicious, but beautiful. Looking forward to ordering another cake from her for our 1st anniversary. :-) -

Our wedding cake was phenomenal! Not only did Johannah take my vision and turn it into a reality, it tasted heavenly! Our cake was included with our wedding package but we met with Johannah prior to try flavors. We were instantly in love with the cakes... it was too hard to choose! All of her cake flavors and frostings tasted so delicious and decadent. We ended up choosing Red Velvet with Cream Cheese frosting and White Butter Cake with Lemon Curd. Our guests enjoyed every bite of it and I wish I had more of it! The design of our cake turned out even better than what I was expecting, which tells me that Johannah took the time to listen to my ideas. If I had any questions or thoughts through the process, I received a response promptly and clearly. She was very professional and provided very good customer service. I plan to go back to Dream Cakes for any future cakes and would highly recommend to everyone! -

We tasted wedding cake at several places around town, and Dream Cakes easily beat the rest of the bakeries out of the water. Johannah did our cake and favors (chocolate chip cookies with a beloved family recipe) and they both tasted amazing. The guests raved about how good the cake was (amaretto with marzipan and buttercream filling), and the design was exactly what we wanted. She was very attentive and responsive with all of our questions, and gave us the cutest little mini cakes to take home and try. -

Perfection
Dream Cakes is the perfect Wedding cake and dessert vendor! First of all, I loved how easy it was to place our dessert and cake order and how seamless it was for a friend to pick up everything wedding day morning. I wanted a simple cake that was beautiful and delicious and that is exactly what we got! Everything tasted SO GOOD. If I had to do it again, I would 100% go with Dream Cakes and I will be recommending them to anyone in the Portland area. -

Dream Cakes made both my wedding cake and my husband's 50th birthday cake (our event included both a wedding and a birthday celebration) - they were super flexible with my flavor choices and willingly accommodated my requests for decorating the birthday cake. They delivered on time and the cake tasted amazing. What more can you ask for? -

My Wedding cake was absolutely Gorgeous and tasted Wonderful. I was an out of town bride and they were so easy to work with. We ended up buying an extra mini cake for my sister in laws birthday because it tasted so so good. -

Amazing! Johannah was so awesome to work with. She assisted us in making decisions about style/design and also allowed us the freedom to choose whatever it was we wanted. Her cake is SO delicious! I can't say enough good things about the flavor combinations she has put together. We loved every flavor we tried. Our cake was wonderful and we got a ton of compliments on it. It was also delicious even days later :) -

Johannah makes the most amazing cakes I've ever had in my life. I chose 4 different cakes for my wedding because I couldn't choose 1. I ended up doing the coconut cake, the white cake with berry filling, the banana cake with toffee crunch filling and a little bride cake that was the chocolate with homemade salted caramel filling. So yummy! And she delivered the cake without being seen, I was told that on my bride cake she hand placed all of my sugar flowers. Amazing. -

Our cake was delicious and very popular with our guests. My husband and I chose to meet with Johannah at Dream Cakes because of her affordable prices, and hired her because her cake was amazing. However, we felt nickel and dimed at every turn - piping in the frosting was an extra charge, any other kind of embellishment was an extra charge, tasting another cake flavor was an extra charge. Don't get me wrong, we were happy with the finished product, just be aware of extras if you're trying to stick to a budget. -

Johanna was a delight to work with. Her passion for cake crafting was obvious by her loyalty to using high quality local ingredients and seasonal fruits. Her cakes are out of this world. You can’t beat the taste. We contacted her a year in advance with our specific cake design and color. The one disappointment we had was the color of the cake as off by a few shades. It didn’t ruin our special day but was a bit disappointed.

Delicious cake but not exactly what we ordered
We loved the cake tasting experience, and we got to take home samples of three of their most popular flavors. We ordered one tier of banana spice and one tier of carrot cake. Unfortunately, all we received on the day-of was the banana spice. It was delicious, but I was most looking forward to the carrot cake. When I let them know about the cake, they offered to make an additional carrot cake for us, which I think is considerate. However, I don't eat sweets very often at all, and it was a missed opportunity to have what I ordered on my wedding day. They were very professional, and I understand that miscommunications occur, but I did end up being disappointed. -

This review is bittersweet. I loved johannah and her cakes are amazing....But unfortunately we received the wrong cakes for our wedding. We ordered 21 cakes and 11 of them were incorrect. My husband loves cake so we had multuple tastings (which we had to fly in for) and we were very particular about cakes, filling and frosting flavors. We ordered coconut cake with coconut filling and frosting but instead received white cake with berries. When we brought this to their attention they responded with "well didn't they still taste good" and offered a free Anniversary cake in a year. We are unfortunately very disappointed. -

Buyer beware.
Their dream cake – watercolors and one large flower (as seen in the Dream Cakes website gallery & in photos supplied by Johannah).
A picture would be worth a thousand words . . . . . just imagine how sad the cake appeared with a small band of blush & berry on the bottom third of the bottom tier - the rest plain white.
The flowers on the cake were added after the fact. Thankfully, our florist came to the rescue minutes before the reception began.
Not only did they not get the desired watercolor appearance, but they were charged extra for it!?!
To add the large single flower that the couple requested (more than the requested 30 days in advance) would have been . . . extra! And you guessed it - $75.
Up-sell and along with it - up charge - expect everything to be another $75.
How much was spent on this vendor? Too much.
No phone – just email. No credit cards, just checks.
When we tried to creatively tackle the extra costs with less cake, we were met with a brick wall.
Difficult to work with.
The cake tasted great.
NOT their dream cake.
