    Barb was an excellent balance of allowing us to do exactly what we wanted while providing creative ideas for us to incorporate. She was great to work with and made the process of designing the cake such a fun experience!

    We loved working with Barb at the Wedding Cake Connection to create our beautiful wedding cake. We didn’t have a lot of ideas before we met with Barb (though looking at her catalog of previous cakes we could tell that she had made some truly amazing out of the box cakes!), but she was able to show samples of previous cakes to help guide us to the cake we wanted. We decided on a simple 3 tier square cake with buttercream frosting and a quilted design. Barb designed a monogram to be displayed on one tier and used our colors to highlight each tier. She also was able to work with our florist to have fresh flowers added to the cake for decoration. The cake itself was delicious, just like the many samples we were able to try when picking out our final flavor! We would definitely use the Wedding Cake Connection again for any special event.

    Barb was fantastic to work with! We went in with a plan that we wanted a certain cake, and left with plans for a completely different cake than what we expected - and loved it! She helped us create a design we loved at an affordable price. We ended up adding fillings to make our cake even more unique for our guests, which you cannot go wrong with!

    Our cake turned out beautiful and was so delicious! Barb is amazing at what she does and will really work with you to help make your vision a reality. We couldn't have gone with anyone better!

    Barb was great to work with! Her cake was absolutely gorgeous and very tasty. A few of our guests even commented that it was the best cake they ever tasted. I felt that she was also very professional. She offered us some table linens from her daughter's wedding that we were able to use. After we had our final wedding count she actually worked with us in modifying our cake was going to be too big. This resulted in us saving a few bucks which was much appreciated!
    Barb also made a birthday cake for my dad (we got married on his b-day) and it was awesome! I would highly recommend using her for a wedding vendor.

    We worked with Bonnie and Barb to design a wedding cake that was perfect for us. They met with us twice when designing our cake, and were very patient in helping us determine what type and design of cake we wanted. The cake was delivered at our venue with plenty of time, and was gorgeous. The colors matched our theme, and the cake was even better than we envisioned it. I would definitely recommend Wedding Cake Connection to anyone looking for a wedding cake.

    Barb Evans created absolutely delicious desserts for our wedding! We wanted cupcakes for our wedding reception and she gave us two dozen to sample in various flavors we had requested. We ended up having cupcakes in four flavors: vanilla (my favorite), carrot cake (my husband's favorite), chocolate, and lemon. She also created the groom's cake with very little input from me and the finished product was better than I could have ever imagined! Simple, which is what I wanted, but unique touches decorating the top and sides. Her attention to detail is very apparent from her cakes! I definitely recommend the Wedding Cake Connection.

    I absolutely LOVED our wedding cake! I provided a picture from a magazine and Barb's work was exactly what I was picturing! She discussed lower cost options to get the same end product. The cake was also very tasty, we had tons of compliments!

    I also purchased a groom's cake from Wedding Cake Connection. I went in with no idea what I wanted and Barb sat down with me and we researched different ideas. It turned out to be absolutely perfect and almost brought my husband to tears at our rehearsal dinner!

    Overall I would highly recommend Barb at Wedding Cake Connection to any of my friends!

    Barb Evans is truly an artist! I went to her with a simple vision for my wedding cake but also wanted a groom's cake done for my husband. We live in Atlanta now so that is a big southern tradition. Both of us went to Purdue University where the official mascot of the school is a train called the Boilermaker Special. The Boilermaker Special was going to be our "getaway" after the ceremony so we thought it would be great to have th cake be the same thing to tie it all together. She did an absolutely INCREDIBLE job! The train was 3-D version of the Boilermaker Special with so much detail it looked exactly like the real thing. There was even a light in the front that actually worked! The staff at our reception venue didn't cut that cake on the night of the wedding because our guests were admiring it the whole night. The next day we noticed finger prints in part of the cake because people were touching it to see if it was in fact cake! I would highly recommend Barb Evans for your wedding cake(s).

    Barb could not have been more professional, kind, and caring. Her cake was beautiful and delicious. We are lucky to have her in Central Illinois.
