Delicious!

Erin made the cake and cupcakes for our wedding at Wright's Mill Farm and WOW! We were super impressed at our tasting, and everything on the big day was even better than we remembered!

Perfect wedding cake and cupcakes

I highly recommend Chocolate Rose Bake Shop for your wedding cake or cupcakes for any event. Erin was highly responsive and decorated our cake just as we had described. Our cake, as well as the cupcakes, tasted amazing and we couldn't be happier. Thanks for all your hard work Erin!

Beautiful and Delicious!

Erin created the most beautiful and DELICIOUS cake for us for our wedding day! She was easy to get in contact with prior to the wedding. We had a phone consultation to discuss our vision, and we were able to try the cake flavors prior to deciding which flavors we wanted for our wedding cake. On the wedding day, the cake arrived on time, and it was absolutely beautiful (exactly how we pictured). It was also SO good. I 100% recommend Erin and Chocolate Rose Bakeshop to everyone who wants a beautiful and delicious cake (or cupcakes) for their wedding.

Delicious affordable wedding cake

I am wayyyy over due in writing a review for Erin. She baked our cake for our wedding on 9/4/22 in Brooklyn, CT and her work is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND DELICIOUS. My husband and I wanted to support local businesses throughout our wedding journey and Erin's business fit that for us. Our tasting was at her home and learned that she bakes everything on her property.

Erin took the time to understand our vision and present us with options. We decided on a three tiered naked cake with strawberry, lemon, and raspberry filling. All of which were well complimented by our guests. The best part was how affordable Erin was, since we didn't want to spend $500+ on a wedding cake.

Service, Taste and Presentation Included

The owner is pretty gosh darn amazing for being so flexible with so little time. Then the cherry on top was getting the presentation down exactly to what we dreamed the cake to look like… oh and taste like! The guests were looking for more! Try the lemon!!! I would go with this shop again and again!

Our guests absolutely loved our cupcakes that we chose to do for our special day. I am also so grateful to have been accommodated since I am dairy intolerant and was able to eat our wedding cake!

As a caterer I have been working with Chocolate Rose Bakeshop for many years. So far there has never been a cake that one of my Brides was looking for that Erin was not able to create. We regularly reccomend her both for her artistic talents and her fair pricing.

Amazing simply AMAZING! Artistry at it's finest...and you can eat it! The Chocolate Rose is clever, creative and definitely way over your caloric intake for one day ...but it is your wedding after all...so live a little. Highly recommended!
