Amazing cakes!

We had two wedding events and got. Other of our cakes from Alexandra’s Sweets. Julie was a pleasure to work with and so responsive. On top of that, the cakes tasted amazing! Our guests complimented our cakes for weeks after. We got the following three flavors- cookie and cream, cheesecake and red velvet with chocolate chips. We definitely highly recommend Julie and can’t wait to get our 1 year anniversary cake!

Beyond Words

We were very thrilled and honored to work with this vendor. Her cake and cupcake for our wedding was beyond words. In addition, for our cake tasting she personally came to our home and we had a chance to get to know each other. Like we have been friends forever. We will definitely use her for other events. Thanks Julie for everything!

I had the pleasure of working with Julie of Alexandra Sweets multiple times over the course of my multi-event wedding festivities. Doing a tasting was very convenient as she came to the the house and was got to sample cupcakes and choose.

We had a cultural event at our house and she was able to make a replica 'dhol' aka drum from a photo that looked so real that people wanted to play it! She also made a beautiful NFL themed Broncos groom cake based off photos from the internet. And even though our event was in April, people still talk about our stunning 4 tier reception cake in which she worked with my decorator and arranged florals flowing in front of the cake. I would highly recommend her for her professionalism, promptness, aesthetics, and taste.

We opted out of the traditional "wedding cake" for our reception. Instead, we came to Alexandra Sweets & Co. with the idea of doing a wedding dessert table. Their execution was flawless and breathtakingly beautiful. All of our guests were in awe of how beautiful our table was and how amazing the variety of cakes tasted. This company has been used repeatedly by various members of my family from birthdays to weddings. They are definitely our go-to cake experts!

We wanted a slightly unique twist on the traditional wedding dessert and Alexandra Sweets & Co delivered in a big way! We had a divine tasting faux cake (only the top tier was real) and an array of sweet potato cups (mini sweet potato pies in cupcake liners). Julie was dedicated to delivering on my order regardless of circumstance (e.g., power loss, storms, etc) and her creative artistry shined through in the cake design. What a joy to work with and hopefully we will be able to do business again in the near future!
