Semi Naked Chocolate Cake 2 Tier

My husband and I absolutely love this bakery! Not only are they willing to accommodate requests, but their bakery items are to die for!

For our wedding we chose a 2 tier (6 and 8 inch) Chocolate cake with raspberry filling, semi naked with Tort layers and we, nor our guests, were disappointed. We had an 1/8 of a sheet cake remaining and even after a week of it being in our fridge as we worked to eat it, the cake was still super moist! Our top tier cake was wrapped (by myself) and put in our deep freezer for our 1 year anniversary

Absolutely Delicious

I highly recommend this bakery for your wedding cake. The whole experience was incredible. We ordered a cake tasting box to-go that had our top choices of cake and different fillings on the side so we could mix and match and decide exactly how we wanted the cake. We chose cherry chipper and almond cake with chocolate and strawberry filling. We also had a barely semi-naked buttercream finish on the outside. The cake was meant for 30 people but I do wish we ordered a bigger cake because it went so fast! Everyone loved the cake! We received many compliments on the cake. We also ordered vanilla cupcakes for whoever didn't want cake and I heard those were terrific too! Gunilla was also a pleasure to work with! She was so kind and helpful. The cake was definitely a highlight at our wedding.

Couldn't be happier

I was nervous ordering my wedding cake from 1200 miles away. Never tasted or seen anything in person from this bakery. So I sent a photo of what I was looking for and it was beyond beautiful. It was exactly what I was hoping for and delicious as well. I am so happy I found American Dream cakes. They were a please to work with.

Excellent, in all areas!

We had heard great things about American Dream Cakes prior to booking a vendor for our wedding, and the reality of their service lived up to every expectation! In all the chaos of a wedding, the cake was the one thing we didn’t have to worry about AT ALL. We gave them and idea of what we wanted, asked for some specific details on the decorating, and they accommodated everything we asked for! By far, the easiest part of the whole wedding due to their attention to detail and professionalism. Not to mention, the cake was BEAUTIFUL and DELICIOUS! Thank you so much for everything you did to make my special day that much easier!

Prompt, professional, and delicious!

ADC was incredible from start to finish! My cake looked exactly as I had pictured and was more than reasonably priced. It was delicious and all of my guests, even the professed non-sweet lovers, loved the cake! I would absolutely recommend them and will be using them for future events such as birthdays and anniversaries! My cake was also entirely edible, with the flowers handcrafted!

American Dream Cakes makes a beautiful cake that is as clean as fondant, but with a buttercream frosting that tastes much better than fondant. I was amazed the first time I saw one of their cakes. The artwork is beautiful.
