Delicious and beautiful!

Amy was so great to work with! She worked with us to create a small cake for our COVID wedding last year and the larger cake for our reception this past weekend. Both cakes were absolutely delicious on top of being beautiful! The cake tasting was such a fun experience and Amy was a joy to work with. All of our guests loved the cake and I cannot recommend her enough! My husbands grandmother told everyone about the cake in advance of this year because she loved it so much from the previous year!

Unique & Tasty Flavors!

We tried a few other cake companies prior to landing on Amy Beck Cake Design and her cake was definitely the tastiest! We had an in-person tasting and her charismatic personality and moist cake/unique fillings sold us!
2 Tiers were:
Hazelnut Cake - Salted Caramel - Chocolate Ganache
1 Tier was:
Almond Cake - Passionfruit Curd - Elderflower Buttercream
We had 50 guests at our wedding and only consumed 2 tiers. All of the guests RAVED about the cake! We were able to save our top tier and freeze it for our anniversary. I provided Amy with photos of my vision from Pinterest and she was able to replicate it 100% with the help of my florist (floral) and Etsy (cake topper).
Thank you, Amy!

Beautiful & Delicious!

Our cake was AWESOME! Pre-covid, my husband and I had a different idea for our cake that we worked on with Amy. When we had to change our plans from a 175 person wedding to a 35 person wedding, Amy was super flexible and worked with us to design a new cake that was more fitting for our smaller wedding at our new venue. It was absolutely beautiful! It was perfect for our venue and was absolutely DELICIOUS! Our top layer was devil's food cake and the bottom layer was almond cake. Everyone was raving about how good it was for days after the wedding. We highly recommend Amy Beck Cake Designs, and hope to work with her again in the future because her cakes are seriously SO good!

Amazing!!!

Classic Wedding Car was the perfect ending to our amazing wedding. Our grand exit from our reception ended as we climbed into one of their beautiful classic cars. We were made to feel like royalty with champagne and a personal chauffeur to our hotel. Classic Wedding Car worked with us and provided a perfect image of what we imagined our wedding would look like. They were flexible and very professional at all times and got us to our hotel safely and in style. We would definitely recommend Classic Wedding Car to anyone who is looking to add some gorgeous flare to their event.

Master of Her Craft

There are so many words to describe the amazing experience I had working with Amy - she is kind, thoughtful, relatable, and on top of everything else A COMPLETE MASTER OF HER CRAFT. During the planning process, Amy was easy to communicate with and completely understood my vision. Our tasting experience was intimate and exciting. It took place in her cake studio which is more like a showroom, with beautiful cakes adorning the windows.

When I walked into the reception and first saw our cake , I was floored - it was a true work of art with countless, beautiful sugar flowers. Our cake was absolutely STUNNING to look at and it was DELICIOUS. We received SO many compliments the entire evening, and for weeks beyond, about both the design and taste of our cake. Thank you so much for being part of our team and sharing in our special day with us, Amy!

Highly recommended!

Working with Amy was one of my favorite parts of my wedding. She completely custom designed our cake by combining ideas from a million different inspiration photos and we could not be happier. Amy gets to know you as a couple so that she really knows your vibe/style before suggesting design ideas. She is available every step of the way to tweak her ideas, work on options to keep cost down, and sends you detailed plans with hand sketched mock-ups. During our tasting she whipped up a completely new type of cake filling on the spot at our request. We cant thank her enough!

Professional and fun

Amy was such a pleasure to work with. We wanted a fairly simple yet beautiful cake and Amy gave us just that. It was beautiful!!! And most importantly it was delicious!! So many people commented on how good the cake was. Amy also added in a little fondant version of our dog which made cutting our cake so fun when we saw that! Amy is professional and fun to work with. We would recommend her to anyone! Thanks Amy!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
