Have Your Cake And Eat It Too

Looking for dessert for an upcoming event? Look no further than Kyrsten's Sweet Designs! Not only are her cakes stunningly decorated, they are moist and delicious. Deciding to use Kyrsten for our wedding cake was one of the easiest decisions we made. The only difficult choice we faced was choosing flavors because every sample we tried was so tasty. We ultimately chose to have a tiered cake with a different cake, filling, and buttercream combination for each tier. Kyrsten also offers cupcakes which is another great option if you just have to have a variety of flavors as well as beautifully decorated sugar cookies. We had our cake decorated in our wedding colors inspired by the invitations sent. Kyrsten even went above and beyond to include fresh flowers from our florist and to communicate with them ahead of time as to what kinds of flowers to include in her design. We cannot wait to unbox and eat our anniversary cake later this year and plan to order from her for any future events in which a cake, cupcakes, or cookies are needed.

Wedding Cake Dreams Do Exist, and Kysten Can Make 'Em Happen!

Wedding cake dreams do exist, and Kyrsten can do it all. After the first bite of our tasting box, we knew that Kyrsten would be our wedding cake baker. She truly went above and beyond for us. She helped me surprise my husband with his groom’s cake the night of our rehearsal dinner (a southern tradition). She worked with our florist to incorporate florals into our cake design. And most importantly, she created this grand and delicious three tier wedding cake in three different flavors. She also included a first wedding anniversary cake, so we didn’t even have to try and save the top layer on the day of our wedding. How sweet is that! All in all, her cakes not only looked beautiful but tasted exceptional. She truly gave us the best of both worlds, and we are in cake heaven!

Not just a baker, a true artist

When my now husband and I first got engaged, I started envisioning our wedding cake. I knew it had to be delicious but also beautiful. Finding the perfect baker proved to be very difficult. After sampling at least a half dozen different bakeries I almost gave up. Nothing impressed me more than my coworkers baking (and she’s just a hobby baker). Finally, I found Kyrsten. THANK GOODNESS FOR HER.

After chatting with her via email, she set us up with a tasting box of cake flavors of our choosing and then several frostings again of our choosing. We were able to mix and match different cake flavors with the frostings to find our perfect combo(s). I had not seen that idea executed from any other baker so I was extremely impressed. I was even more impressed with how delicious everything was. Her cake was everything I had been searching for. Even my husband was impressed and he doesn’t love sweet treats. Before finding Kyrsten he could care less what cake we had. He definitely cared after having our tasting box!

For our wedding we went with a three-tiered cake that Kyrsten designed herself! I had a few ideas but let her ultimately have creative freedom. Right after we discussed our vision for the cake, she sent us a rough draft of a hand SKETCHED picture of our future cake. Not only is she an amazing baker but a true artist! It was everything we could have dreamed of. We also ordered hand decorated sugar cookies that were not only delicious but once again STUNNING. By the end of the night, there was not a single piece of cake left. I have since received so many complements on our cake.

Kyrsten was hands down one of the easiest vendors to work with. She is extremely organized, has a very easy portal to submit payments, flavors, and any other ideas on, and she also responds to emails VERY quickly. Over the two years working with her, she always remembered everything we talked about and was such a joy to talk to.

I HIGHLY recommend Kyrsten. I can’t wait to have an excuse to work with her again! Seriously though, you will not be disappointed!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I personally used Kyrsten's Sweet Designs for my daughter's first birthday "cake pop" creations... and they were FABULOUS!!! The designs were beautiful! They matched the party theme perfectly. All I did was just her a copy of the invitation and told her to whip something up. And I couldn't have been happier with the turnout. Everyone spoke highly of the cake pop designs AND the taste!!!! Kyrsten was extremely pleasant to work with and professional all the way!
