Above & Beyond Impressed

Laura was AMAZING to work with! She's professional, reliable, personable, talented and detailed. Her cake testing was very thorough and she was more than happy to accommodate any request. Her flavors were very tasty and we opted for a white cake with almond mousse and raspberry jam. We received numerous compliments on the taste, as well as the gorgeous design. She truly took our vision and made it come to life! You will not be disappointed at all when you choose Laura!

Five Stars

I shopped around for a baker/decorator for my wedding cake for a long time. I had difficulty finding a place that was reasonably priced, had the type of cake that I wanted, and tasted delicious. When I found Elegance in Sugar, I knew I wanted Laura to be the one to make our wedding cake! She did such a beautiful job and she was so fun to be around.

Also, we watched her on Cake Wars and she absolutely should have won. Recommend!

I am SO happy I chose Laura for our wedding cake. It was PERFECT! Laura is so easy to work with, organized, quick to respond, and professional. She was on time and just a great energy to work with. I cannot say enough great things about her work - the cake was AMAZING. We had a longer engagement and took our time, so didn't book many vendors on the spot, but as soon as we had her cake at the tasting, we knew we had to book her right then so no one else snagged her for our date!!! The best cake I've ever had - and our guests kept talking about it too!! My husband keeps staring at the 1-year anniversary top layer in the freezer and I have a hunch it won't make it to 1 year lol! The cake was absolutely worth every penny, we are so happy. We had a simple cake but I know that you can definitely trust Laura with anything you envision - she is so talented! Cannot thank her enough!!!!!!! You will be so happy to pick her for your event!!!!

The cake that she makes are the most beautiful pieces of art that I have ever seen! She brought us to her house to design our cake and was able to make my dream a reality. Everything on our cake was edible and hand made. Our guests were talking about our cake for weeks following the wedding. On top of it all, IT WAS DELICIOUS! We did a 5 layer chocolate tort and it was amazing! Highly recommended!!

Laura made the most beautiful wedding cake for our wedding. Choosing a wedding cake was one of the hardest decisions for us. We were so picky about the taste of a cake and we really wanted one that our guests would enjoy eating. When we tasted Laura's cake, we knew it was exactly what we were looking for. It was so incredibly moist and the fresh fruit was delicious. Not only that, but the cake she designed for us was exactly what we've always wanted. It was hand decorated in all lace and you knew that so many hours were dedicated to the design. I got so many compliments from our guests that it was one of the most beautiful cakes they've ever seen at a wedding. Laura was so easy to work with and really wanted to make us happy. We were able to give her our cake toppers ahead of time with no problem at all. If you're looking for a cake that both looks and tastes amazing, definitely get it form Laura!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
