Jay did my cake for my wedding in September. I had a few ideas, but Jay expertise and skills blew anything that I had in mind out of the water. My cake was perfect and unique. I couldn't of picked a more beautiful cake design. I would recommend Jay to anyone who is wanting something unique and different.

I never had the pleasure of meeting with Jay in person but when a cake is as beautiful and scrumptious as his…it matters not. Jay’s work speaks for itself. He is an accomplished master in his field. With so much talent, it might be hard for a bride to choose what her heart desires, but for me it was simple. I asked Jay to do what he does best, create. The first time I saw my cake my heart skipped a beat. It was truly a work of art. He combined all of the esthetic elements of my wedding and transformed it into a delectable masterpiece. It was a vision of edible extravagance. I am a lover of cake and had I not been the bride I can assure you I would have been hiding in a corner eating much more than my fair share. So yummy!

Jay is not only an amazing designer and baker, he is an amazing person. I feel so incredibly lucky that I got to work with him! Jay listened to everything I wanted, but threw ideas out that absolutely blew my mind (and everyone else's). He was able to bring out a creative side in me, and I am so happy he did! The cake he designed was the centerpiece of my entire wedding. Everyone could not stop talking about how amazing it was! Jay was so patient and kind through the entire process and I can't imagine what my cake and my wedding would have turned out like if I hadn't used him. If you are looking for a cake baker that is absolutely amazing, Jay Qualls is for you!!
I am so thankful to you Jay!!!

Jay is an absolute artist. Our wedding cake was incredibly beautiful. I could not have asked for anything better. Our guests STILL talk about our cake. In my album of wedding photos, I call the cake the "centerfold." Jay is a Rock Star in the cake world and an absolutely stellar person. He truly loves what he does and it shows. I'm honored to now call him my friend.

Jay is a true artist and one of the most fun people you will work with during your wedding planning process. I cannot tell you how much I absolutely adore him and how special he made our wedding day.

Our main cake was an easy pick. The second I walked into Jay's shop I saw the one for me. My husband's pick was a little more complicated. He wanted a very specific grooms cake. Jay TOTALLY made it happen. When we saw it at the reception, we about lost our minds; it was SO FABULOUS! He loved it sooooooooo much, and people couldn't stop talking about the amazing Super Hero Cake!

However, I will say that while the main cake was an easy pick, it stole the show...because it was HANGING FROM THE CEILING! Yes, this is why I love him; he thinks outside the box. The cake was so so so so amazing. People kept coming up to me and saying, "Is your cake REALLY suspended??" They were just blown away by the wow factor and couldn't get over it. It was truly spectacular!

Jay, you were a dream to work with. I love you and think you are absolutely amazing. Thank you for making me feel so special, and I just truly appreciate everything that you did for us. We loved the cakes; they were not only amazing look at but tasty too! :)

I do not hesitate what-so-ever recommending Jay Qualls. You won't find anyone else better than him and his team in this town; you can't do better than the best!!! :)

I highly recommend Jay and Maples Wedding Cakes! He did a wonderful job on my wedding cake and our groom's cake. I took in a picture of a cake that I liked. We discussed it and made it into a cake that I loved! The finished product was beautiful and better than I could have ever imagined. Not only was it a beautiful cake, it was delicious as well (his fondant is excellent!)! My husband wanted a mallard duck groom's cake, and Jay exceeded our expectations! He made a 3-D replica of a mallard duck, and it was spot-on! You will not be disappointed with Maples Wedding Cakes!
