    Tara's cakes are amazing!! Every single cupcake we tried was delicious. It was so difficult to make our final decision because there were so many flavors to chose from. She gives you samples of any kind you would like before you make your decision. She is so sweet and super responsive. The display of our cake & cupcakes looked amazing and I'm so happy we chose her!

    Once Upon a Cake did an amazing job on my wedding cake, they made my dream reality! They always got back to you and confirmed every detail. The cake flavors are amazing and not bland, too sweet or artificial tasting! Choose them for your wedding, you won't be disappointed!

    This place was absolutely amazing. They are so easy to talk to when first setting up what cake you want and what flavors. They completely won me over at the cake tasting WOW. On the wedding day I had 3 tiers with all different flavors and the whole cake was gone at the end of the night. People didn't think it was a real cake because it looked so pretty. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Trust me you will not go wrong with them. I found there prices so reasonable compared to all the other places I went to that were charging double what Once Upon a Cake was trying to charge me.

    From the very first meeting, Tara was a complete professional. She was organized, friendly, knowledgable, and walked us through the whole process - answering all our questions (both at the meeting at afterwards) quickly and concisely. Her cake flavours are incredible! There are so many delicious flavours to choose from, and she lets you try as many as you want (and take samples home!). I had picked quite a complicated decoration on my cake from a magazine, and hesitantly asked Tara if she could do something along those lines ... She did the EXACT design :-) Her craftsmanship is pretty incredible. I was absolutely blown away when I saw the cake at the reception, and even more impressed when I tasted it! I would highly recommend Tara and can't wait to use her services again!

    Once Upon a Cake made the most delicious red velvet cake I've ever had! There was no fuss at all with any of the arrangements and they are very affordable. I was one happy bride!!

    Working with Tara was a pleasure and a very positive experience! She gave me great ideas keeping in mind my budget. My husband and I fell in love wth her cupcake samples, that it was hard to choose the flavours for our cake. We were very happy with the final product and can't wait to work with them in the future!

    We were given accurate and helpful advice for planning the cake size based on our guest list. My favorite part though was sampling the different flavours; it was helpful to have a small take home tray to really make our decisions. We received timely feedback on design and cost, but most importantly, the cake and cupcakes were delicious! Everything looked beautiful, the delivery was punctual, and people commented after the wedding on how delicious the cake really was. We were even able to have options for friends who had allergies. The whole process was so easy and fun. Highly recommended!!!

    Once upon a cake was amazing from out very first contact with them! The free tasting had us hooked. Never had cupcakes that tasted that great!!! From there all communication was fast and they were eager to help. The cake turned out delicious! All our guests raved about it. Was looking forward to having more the next day but hotel "lost" the left over cake!
    Would highly recommend once upon a cake and will order from them again!!!

    Our experience with Once upon A Cake was awesome.
    One of the issues I had was deciding on flavours but having the samples on the first visit to taste and some advise from the girls on their thoughts and feed back helped me with the final decision. Adjusting quantities because of number changes for guest meant calling and changing order, but who ever was on the other end of the phone was patient and reassuring that what ever we needed they would accommodate.
    Finished product was beautiful and everything we wished for. Cup cakes were a great idea too as we had little ones and also some adults preferred them. We were able to rent the tired display for everything which finalized our display. Thank you so much guys for being part of our special day!

    Once Upon a Cake was amazing. I couldn't have found a better vendor for my wedding cake and cupcakes. Tara replied in a proper manner to my email requests. We were able to meet in person, discuss the details and try some samples. I sent her pictures of a cupcake display I wanted and she was able to make it for me. The price was very reasonable.

    We were thrilled when we saw the our cake and cupcakes. It was such a beautiful display. We got so many compliments of how pretty the display looked and how delicious the cupcake flavors were. We went with a 6" carrot cake and 5 dozen carrot cupcakes, 6 dozen coconut and lime cupcakes and 6 dozen vanilla cupcakes. We are so happy with having Once Upon a Cake as our vendor. We will definitely be recommending them to all our friends and family. Thank you Once Upon a Cake.

    Tara is a master of her trade as the cake she made for our wedding was both beautiful and delicious. I had provided her with a photo of what I found online and she was able to tweak it to my vision and budget (ie. match our wedding colors, create a gradient of the lace pattern, etc). I can honestly say it was difficult picking flavors for each tier as all her samples were to die for. My favorite was the chocolate ganache and lemon cake with strawberry icing. She is very professional and is easy to work with.

    When my mom and I met with Tara, she was very professional and on time. She is a very sweet person and is good at what she does. She made a absolutely beautiful wedding cake display for us that consisted of a main tiered cake with a fountain and some other tiered cakes around it. It was so beautiful, some people at our wedding were requesting her information so they could hire her for their wedding and just about everyone commented on how wonderful and delicious it was. Thanks so much Tara! I would recommend you to anyone! :-)

    We used Once Upon a Cake for our wedding in June 2013 and we were more than satisfied with our experience! The ladies were so accommodating before the wedding and the cake turned out more unique and creative then we ever could have imagined. We had so many comments on how amazing our cake was (looks and taste!). Our favourite flavour was the raspberry one. :)

    Not only would I recommend them to others, I can't wait to have a birthday or another event so we can use them again!

    Once Upon a Cake did an amazing job with the cake we ordered. I just gave them some general specifications and they turned out a cake that was a piece of art. They have an eye for what looks good and they provide a high quality product.

    My experience with Once Upon a Cake was phenomenal! I had so much go wrong with my wedding day but luckily my cake & cupcakes werent one of them! I had several different flavors of cupcakes + a cake for me and my husband to cut. The price was AWESOME and the quality was AMAZING. They do wonderful work and should be very proud of what they provide. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them to all of my friends and family.
