Delicious Desserts

Bakies made several bite sized desserts for our wedding and they were INCREDIBLE!! We got various brownies, cheesecakes and pecan bars and they were all sooo good! We had several guests tell us how fabulous they were and that they couldn’t stop eating them all night!

I just had my wedding in Charleston last weekend and we hired Bakies for our wedding cakes. We didn't want a formal wedding cake and instead choose to have two cakes - a bride and groom cake. For my husband, we had a basketball with his college number and team colors and for me, I had a cake of my dog! I can't begin to express how fantastic these cakes were - they brought in an aspect of each of our personalities that our attendees loved AND they were DELICIOUS!!!! Everyone raved about these cakes and we are so thankful to the staff at Bakies for doing such an incredible job!

Gail was fabulous to work with! Our cake was phenomenal and exactly what we wanted! Everyone loved it. Getting a keeper cake was a bonus as it helped us not have to worry about saving the top tier of the cake for our first anniversary. Gail also made us a groom's cake of rice krispy treats in the shape of a Clemson tiger paw. All of our rehearsal dinner guests loved it!
