Stunning and delicious cake!

Gayle made us the most gorgeous cake I’ve ever seen in my whole life. Plus it was DELICIOUS. We go a chocolate chambord with a raspberry filling and buttercream frosting but she makes several lovely flavors; I highly recommend getting a cake tasting box which was professionally and beautifully packaged to arrive in the mail still tasting fresh. Seriously seriously get a cake from Gayle. You won’t regret it.

Wedding cupcakes 🧁

We hired Gayle/ Let them eat cake to do our wedding cupcakes. Her designs were so beautiful and the cupcakes themselves were so delicious. We did the chocolate and the spice cake flavors. She was very responsive, professional and friendly to work with. We highly recommend her!

Fantastic Cake and Experience!

I needed a special cake for a very special occasion: a 100th birthday celebration, with a 79-person guest list! I had no idea where to begin. The owner of Let Them Eat Cake, Gayle Forte, was wonderful to work with. She explained to me the best size and shape of cake I should use for my guest list and occasion. As for what the cake should look like, the only hints I gave her were "The guest of honor likes flowers", and "she likes pinks, yellows, and purples". With so little to go on, Gayle drew us a concept sketch, and once I saw it, I knew it would be perfect. The end result was a stunning work of art, which was completely consumed by the end of the party. Many, many guests commented on how lovely the cake was, and also how delicious. I highly, highly recommend Gayle Forte and Let Them Eat Cake!

An enormous thank you to "Let Them Eat Cake" for the gorgeous floral cupcakes. The cupcakes were not only breathtakingly beautiful but also absolutely delicious. The perfect combination of artistry and flavor. Every detail was so thoughtfully crafted, and they tasted every bit as incredible as they looked.

Highly Recommend Let Them Eat Cake!

We worked with Gayle at Let Them Eat Cake for our wedding cake and cupcakes, and she was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. We had a coastal wedding and weren’t entirely sure what we wanted at first, but Gayle helped guide us toward the perfect design and flavors.

She created a stunning and delicious cake and cupcake selection that our guests are still talking about. Everything was beautiful, fresh, and perfectly done.

The wedding cake was exactly what we hoped for, and the cupcakes were just as impressive. We are so grateful to Gayle for her talent, creativity, and care in making our dessert table such a highlight of the day.

Highly recommend Gayle!

Gayle was so amazing to work with! I pretty much started with 0 clue what I wanted and Gayle took the time to discuss my vision and then draw out some sketches for me to look at. She had worked with my florist before and even contacted her to make sure her buttercream flowers matched my centerpieces! More importantly, the cake tasted as good as it looked! I would highly recommend Let Them Eat Cake to anyone looking for a sweet addition to their wedding day!
