The Perfect Wedding Cake

Freedom Bakery was fantastic to work with for our wedding! They executed our vision perfectly. Not only was the cake beautiful but it was so delicious. We kept hearing compliments throughout the evening.

I'm lactose intolerant, I really appreciated that they accommodated the bottom layer of the cake, so it was dairy free. It was so tasty that no one even noticed the difference.

From the initial meeting with Paul and working with Tania along the way, the Freedom Bakery team was communicative and easy to work with. I highly recommend working with them for any event or even visiting if you're craving a sweet dessert in the area. Thank you so much for making our wedding cake dreams come true!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
