The BEST Wedding Cake!

Holy cow are Carrie’s cake absolutely delicious! She is so easy to work with on pretty much whatever you want and is flexible if you need to make changes. I was SO thankful this cake didn’t end up on my face because it was too good to not be in my mouth!

Cake was way better than expected

I just wanted to say that the cake was beautiful! Exactly what I wanted, and the starfish were way beyond what I could imagine. They looked like porcelain. Delivered on time to the restaurant and the staff kept complimenting the cake. Highly recommended!

Most amazing mini desserts and wedding cake!

Carrie made the most beautiful and delicious wedding cake and mini desserts for our wedding in Bluffton. We found Carrie through our wedding planner who highly suggested her and has worked with her many times. We wanted mini desserts for our wedding for guests and Carrie kindly provided them as a complimentary tasting for us before hand as well. Her mini banana puddings, mini key lime pies, mini tres leches, mini chocolate mousse cake and mini strawberry shortcake were SO delicious honestly probably the best we have ever had and it was so perfect to have such a great variety Our guests raved about the desserts and the presentation by Carrie was beautiful. She also made a small cake for us so we could have an intimate cake cutting of just us and our families. I cannot recommend Carrie enough for a wedding or any special event. We already decided we will be ordering the mini desserts for holidays bc we cannot stop thinking about them!
