Best cake!

Loved the entire experience working with Imaginary Cakes. The number of options was incredible and we enjoyed our tasting to see what would be best for our big day. Matt and Courtney were incredibly responsive when I changed a flavor for our tasting at the last minute. Our cake was yummy and we loved the option of having different flavors for each layer. We left flowers at our reception venue for them to decorate on arrival. It came out not only delicious, but absolutely beautiful and exactly like I pictured. My husband just mentioned tonight if we could order another cake from them just for fun lol Highly recommend for all your events!

Delicious & Beautiful

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Imaginary Cakes after they nailed our two wedding cakes! We had both a traditional tiered cake and an armadillo groom's cake which were stunning. The flavors were delicious, the cake was perfectly balanced and moist, and all the guests raved.

Wedding Cake 10.10.20

Brides - if you’re looking for someone to do your wedding cake I HIGHLY recommend Imaginary Cakes. We had the absolute best experience at our cake tasting and our wedding cake was PERFECT. I came in with a vision of what I wanted and they nailed it down to the last details. Delivery and set up was easy and I had absolutely no worries on my wedding day. Courtney was a dream to work with! I can’t thank them enough for making my wedding day perfect.

Oh my WOW!!!

So my now husband and I went to several cake places to try the cakes out and see if they were able to meet our vision. Imaginary Cakes was by far the most delicious place we went and the most fun to work with! They were just as excited about our cake ideas as us and were so reasonably priced! I dont know why anyone would go with any other place! We have already decided to use them for any future cake needs! Courtney is a design goddess and Chris is the sweetest to work with in the front! I cannot stress enough use this place!!!!!!
