Perfect flavors and look

Cake Ann helped make our vision come true with a delicious cake! It was simple like we requested but beautiful. The flavors (espresso and champagne) were utter perfection!

Best cake in Town

Our experience with Cake Anne in Gloucester, MA, was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we discussed our vision, Inga and her team were attentive, creative, and dedicated to making our cake a true masterpiece. For our special event, we chose a 2-tier cutting cake that was nothing short of spectacular. The peacock teal fondant with baroque-style gold detailing made it a stunning centerpiece that wowed our guests. The cake was as delicious as it was beautiful, with every bite offering a burst of fresh, balanced flavors. We also had a 10" "sheet" cake for the larger event, which was equally impressive, rich, moist, and incredibly decadent. What truly set Cake Anne apart was their personalized approach. They invited us for an in-person cake tasting, tailored to our preferences, making it a special experience. They even created a custom flavor for us and provided a video outlining design decisions, ensuring every detail was perfect. Many other places offered preset tasting boxes or had us take cake home, which didn't feel special. Cake Anne made sure the tasting was memorable and even matched the cake color to our teal swatch. We can't thank Inga and her team enough for their hard work and dedication. If you're looking for a cake that combines beauty, flavor, and a personal touch, Cake Anne is the way to go. Highly recommended!

Accommodating to GF

We hired Cake Ann for our wedding in Gloucester in July 2023. They were accommodating to dietary restrictions (gluten) and made a beautiful GF cutting cake, in addition to two separate flavors of hydrangea styled cupcakes for our guests. Inga was very familiar with our venue [Cruiseport], which made planning easy and convenient. Thank you, Inga!
