Truly Talented

Can’t say enough good things about Dawn... I used her for my daughters bridal shower & wedding. Everything is delectable, your guests will rave over it. Dawns presentation is 5 star, her setup of the cake & cupcakes at the wedding was elegant. It was truly a pleasure to work with her.

Dawn is a very amazing and talented lady, our cake was absolutely perfect! Guest went on and on about how delicious the cake and cupcake were. I couldnt decide exactly how I wanted flowers so trusted Dawn to just do whatever and WOW it was breathtaking. 1000% would recommend her.

Dawn is amazing!

We loved working with Dawn for our wedding day. She is extremely thoughtful and professional throughout the entire process. Dawn gave us the most amazing cake tasting, which helped us decide on our cake and cupcake flavors. We absolutely loved our cake and cupcakes. Every single detail was perfect. All of our guests still talk about the cake and cupcakes and we cannot wait for our anniversary to have another taste of the cake! I cannot wait for another occasion to work with Dawn again.
