Simply Delicious and Beautifully Designed!

Kyrsten is a dream to work with! From our intake call, to the tasting process, to final execution of our Wedding Cake - she simply got us and brought our vision to life. Our guests were wowed by the flavors we offered and really loved that we had both a tiered cake and cupcake option. Kyrsten truly takes her time getting to know you and customizes options that will best suit your needs and will display beautifully on your big day. We highly recommend booking her if you're looking for 5 star service, design, and most importantly taste!

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!!

Kyrsten is amazing

Kyrsten was lovely to work with on creating my sweet/dessert table. She attentively listened to my vision and made it comes true. She was greatly to work with from the beginning to the end. Her sugared cookies were nicely decorated, cake was beautifully decorated with real flowers and the cupcakes were just amazing. Kyrsten has a strong work ethic and it shows in her works. My guests kept commented on how amazing her cookies/cupcakes were. We would highly recommend Kyrsten for her talented and delicious sweet treats!

Amazing Cake and Amazing Vendor!

I am so thankful that we chose Kyrsten to design and bake our wedding cake. She was incredibly helpful, patient, and responsive, and and final product was absolutely beautiful and of course incredibly delicious! I had wedding guests coming up to me even before the end of the reception to tell me how much they enjoyed the cake. The presentation was beautiful as well! I would highly recommend Kyrsten's Sweet Designs to anybody searching for a wedding cake or other wedding goodies/sweets.

The cake BOSS :)

I did a google search and found Kyrsten’s sweet designs, I am so glad I did that search. I will say we are so lucky to have found her because she is organized, extremely professional and her cakes are amazing. She was one of our favorite vendors to work with I had to fly out to do our cake tasting with her. We live in Arizona however we had our wedding in PA. She worked with my schedule to fly out and was a great host. Kyrsten is so kind, friendly and bakes great cakes. If you have the opportunity to work with her do not miss it, because if you do you are surely missing out. My favorite cake flavor from our wedding was the lemon flavor and filling super yummy.
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!
