Amazing Cake and Desserts

It's All About the Cake made our wedding cake and desserts—and they were absolutely amazing! Kim and her team were so kind, helpful, and fun to work with. They made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. We were able to sample everything, which was such a thoughtful touch, and they were incredibly patient in answering all our questions. The final cake and desserts were beautiful and delicious—our guests loved them! I’m so grateful for their hard work and would definitely recommend them and use them again!

Great service and quality!

My husband and I had It's All About The Cake do our wedding cake and desserts, and we were so pleased about the overall service and product from start to finish! This bakery partners with our wedding venue, which is how we found and decided to use them. We had our initial tasting, and it was such a pleasant experience. First of all, the cake was delicious! Secondly, Lizzie helped and served us at our tasting, and she was absolutely delightful and so helpful! We opted to have a smaller, two-tier cake as well as an assortment of desserts, and they were all delicious. We were also very happy to have the option of more desserts. The delivery of our cake and desserts on our wedding day went perfectly, and our guests loved them!

Tasty Wedding Cake

We booked our wedding cake through our vendor which provided us with a great package. They were able to work with our flower vendor to complete the look and everything turned out beautiful and tasty!

‘All about the cake’ team started out with a nice tasting to pick out the filling and cake flavors. It would’ve been nice to take a couple of friends or family members but that’s ok, they made it very intimate for just the two of us.

We can’t wait to come back for our complimentary 1-year cake!

Great quality and service

I thoroughly enjoyed the cake tasting process of wedding planning! The service and quality were top notch! I love the freedom and flexibility we were offered when it came to picking and choosing our cake flavors and mini dessert assortments! My only downfall was I didn’t get any mini desserts at my wedding because my guests ate them all!

Everyone loved it!!

They nailed our cake - the taste was even better than the tasting, and the design was spot on to what we asked for. They are worth every penny, and do incredible work.

Let Them Eat Delicious Cake!

Ana and Colleen were so wonderful to work with. We met Ana the day of our tasting. She was very sweet and explained the process to us. It’s All About The Cake hosts the tasting at their cafe in Dana Point right by the harbor which is a beautiful location. They offer you champagne and bring the cake samples out to you so it is a very indulgent and fun experience! Most importantly, the cake is absolutely DELICIOUS! My Groom and I chose three flavors, one for each layer - vanilla cake with vanilla pastry cream and lemon curd filling, strawberry cake with strawberry pastry cream filling, and chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling. Leading up to the wedding, I changed my mind several times on what type of design I wanted for the cake. No matter how many times I changed it, Colleen and Ana were very patient with me and accommodating. They thought of everything, including asking me how large my cake topper was, so they could make sure it would fit. The day of my wedding, they delivered the cake on time and it was exactly what I asked for. All of my guests were raving about how delicious the cake was. It was so good, I had my venue pack up the leftovers so we could take it home! I would highly recommend It’s All About The Cake.

Fantastic!

It's All About the Cake is Talega Golf Club's partner when it comes to wedding cakes, so after booking with Talega for our wedding this year, we worked with this vendor as well. The cake tasting was a great experience with Colleen, and my (now) husband and I were excited to have awesome cake on our wedding day. We selected vanilla cake with chocolate ganache and Oreo mousse for two of the layers, and the 3rd layer was strawberry shortcake. Our guests raved about the delicious cake, especially the chocolate ganache and Oreo mousse, and the decorations were exactly like the photo sample that I provided. Even though we used artificial flowers and garlands, the end result was better than I would've expected. Thank you team, for the great service and fantastic quality of the cake. We're excited to order our complimentary one-year anniversary cake next year!

Amazing cake taste and decor!

We searched endlessly for cake shops until we came across two places that offered gluten free cakes. After doing a tasting, we had no doubt that we had to go with them. Their cake was super moist and tasted just like a regular cake, something that I really miss. We were instantly in love! My husband and I are obsessed with cake. They were very knowledgeable and that eased our minds since we were coming from Chicago. We had a three tier cake with raspberry, lemon, and strawberries & cream. Our guests had great things to say about it. It was beautifully decorated too! Another thing that we really liked was that we did not have to freeze our top tier as they provide a complimentary one on our anniversary. We cannot wait to enjoy their cake again when we head to California for our anniversary!

Endless Possibilities

My husband and I walked into our cake tasting appointment with absolutely no expectations but walked away more excited about our cake than any other wedding plans! Our cake options seemed only as limited as the combinations we could think of. In the end, my husband and I were able to put together some of the most amazing cakes that our guests were praising afterward! We highly recommend It's All About the Cake!
