So delicious

We loved working with Tara! She was absolutely wonderful and literally makes the best gluten free cake ever, I don’t think anyone knew it was gluten free, it was so good! I even told my husband I couldn’t wait a whole year to eat our top tier and he should get one of Tara’s cakes for my birthday! Lol. All of the grooms cake and most of the bridal cake were gone at the end of the night!

Beautiful Cake

Tara was wonderful in helping us have a dream wedding "cake". I am not the biggest fan of actual cake so I asked Tara if she could possibly create a wedding cooking cake- she NAILED it!
She was amazing in communication throughout the entire process and the cake on the day of was wonderful.
Thank you so much, Tara!

Try the Vegan cakes!

Tara was fantastic! Our cake was amazing and she NAILED it with the design. Everyone loved our cake and the best man and his wife took all the leftover cupcakes and have been enjoying them for breakfast for the past week. Her vegan icing was amazing and we could eat it with a spoon! SO GOOD!
