Style AND Substance

Sara was a joy to work with and our cake and cupcakes turned out better than we imagined! We did a two-tier naked cake with two different flavors, Tahitian Vanilla Passionfruit and Apple Maple, along with Cookies and Cream cupcakes (my cat's name is Oreo so this was a nod to him). Sara delivered the cakes on site and put together such a beautiful display for us. It was great to know our cakes would be delicious and look beautiful! Plus, it was a great value! Thank you, Sara, for making our cakes and cupcakes!

Sara’s Cakes Are True Jewels

This cake was unbelievable in appearance and taste. We had the Mexican chocolate and the Peach Bellini. The little bits of peach in the cake was such a delight! Sara is definitely a treasure and her cakes are jewels.

Best Cupcakes Ever!

I recently had the pleasure of ordering cupcakes from Sara Lee, the owner of Destin Cakes, and I couldn't be more delighted. She was incredibly sweet and personally delivered our cupcakes, arranging them beautifully on the cupcake stand I had purchased.

The cupcakes were exceptionally moist and flavorful. We tried a selection, including red velvet, dulce de leche, and traditional vanilla, and each one was exactly how a cupcake should be: spongy, sweet, and airy. They are truly some of the best cupcakes I've ever tasted!

I even added my own decorations to the cupcakes, as seen in the attached picture. I wholeheartedly recommend Destin Cakes to my friends and family. You won't be disappointed!

Perfect Sweet 16 Cake!

Vacationing from out of state, and celebrating my daughter's 16th birthday. Customer service was beyond exceptional and the cake was exactly what we envisioned. And it tasted AMAZING! The chocolate was so decadent 😋 Definitely recommend!

First class start to finish

We were planning our wedding from 1300 miles away. Chef Sarah made me feel comfortable and at ease from the first meeting over Zoom. She took my inspirations and curated the exact design, coordinating with my wedding planner and venue.

She shipped the tasting kit which was challenging in the middle of August heat. It had melted some but the flavors were still AMAZING.

Our guests raved about the cakes. It was absolutely beautiful and I love that she is a veteran.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ amazing!

We had the best experience with Sara at Destin Cakes. We did a destination wedding in Florida and she was amazing to work with. We were able to do our cake tasting from the Midwest where she sent us out six flavors. We then bought a second tasting box for my husband’s 30th birthday. All the flavors were amazing and we had the hardest time choosing a flavor for our wedding cake. All of our guests stopped us to compliment the cake. We couldn’t recommend her enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
