About

Martine is renowned for the rich yet delicate buttercream frosting on her delicious cakes, which come in a variety of flavors. Her desserts are made from the finest ingredients, such as real butter, cake flour, premium flavorings and European chocolates.

Martine’s philosophy from the beginning was to build a business with excellent customer service, and use the finest gourmet ingredients and artisanal skill to create a product that was also an experience.

Martine's Gave Us An Amazing Experience...and Cake!

The team at Martine's couldn't have been nicer and accommodating! We were out-of-towners planning our wedding in Lexington and Martine's made us feel like we weren't locals, but like friends. The tasting cakes were so good that it was difficult to narrow them down to two selections but we did - pistachio and strawberry champagne. On the day of the wedding, there was confusion on whether to have flowers on the cake or not. When I was chatting with someone expressing my disappointment that I didn't see the flowers, I heard someone from behind with a wonderful French accent ask me "Do you want the flowers?"...and it was Martine herself. I'll never forget her response to me when I thanked her for coming..."I wouldn't have missed this for anything". Knowing she was there on our day and would take care of the cake made an incredible difference for us! A thousand "thank you"'s to Martine and her bakery team!

Simply Amazing

Martine's was an amazing experience for Madeline and I. We visited Martine's about a year before we got married for a tasting and planning session in which they helped us design the cakes and we got to try some of their delicious creations! Their cakes are both beautiful and delicious, if you do use them, you must try the pistachio cake. We had both a grooms cake and a wedding cake. They worked very well with our other vendors to make sure that the wedding day flowed seamlessly and everything was where it should be when it needed to be there. We couldn't recommend them highly enough!

Martine's Cakes are the BEST!

Not only are Martine's wedding cakes delicious, they are absolutely stunning! They were so helpful and accommodating for my daughter's recent wedding! The bride and groom enjoyed a cake tasting and were assisted in designing the wedding cake of their dreams! We couldn't have been happier with the result on the big day! The groom's baseball cake was totally awesome, too! Thanks to Chelsea and Martine Holzman for making the wedding day a success!

Highly recommend

We used Martines for a dessert assortment for our wedding reception. We had champagne strawberry cake, mini tiramisu, fruit tarts, chocolate chip cookies, and much more. It was all wonderful. Martines was very helpful and accommodating. We were impressed with our tasting experience as well. Highly recommend!

We got a 2 tier pistachio wedding cake with buttercream icing. Several guests commented that it was the best cake they had ever eaten. I would highly recommend Martines to anyone. The bakery met with us for a tasting and were extremely patient and responsive to what we wanted.

We had our wedding in Lexington and live in Cincinnati, so we picked three vendors to visit and met with Martine, first. Needless to say, we signed with her and never made it to the other vendors. She worked with us to help us find the right vision for our cake and budget we were looking to stay in. She is creative and clearly enjoys helping others to make their days special, whether it is a wedding cake, birthday cake... The cake was beautiful and delicious the day of the wedding and we got rave reviews. Thanks, Martine!!!!

Martine is lovely. Her staff is great. They called to confirm the cake flavors were right. The cake was beautiful and absolutely delicious! Pistachio cake with French butter cream, delightful!

Martine and her team were extremely easy to work with. I showed her an inspiration picture during our initial consultation and she was able to create a cake just as beautiful for our wedding. Her cake is not the cheapest in town but the quality and taste is worth it! I've never had cake so delicious before (I'm not usually a cake girl) and everyone at our wedding loved it! I highly recommend using Martine's for any cake needs!

Where do I even begin? Martine's Pastries is both professional and extremely satisfying for your taste buds; with that being said, Martine and her staff were a pleasure to work with and turned my dream wedding cake into a reality. I was pleased with the communication and their delivery, it was reassuring that no one had to worry about picking up the cake or setting up the cake, they did it for you. Not to mention, their cake, oh my goodness, it is to die for and their buttercream, myself and our guests were left speechless. You truly can not go wrong with Martine's, a big thank you to you and your staff, you were a pleasure to work with.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Martine's is always my go-to for wedding cakes and desserts. Everything they make is amazing! Her pistachio cake is so delicious but who can pick favorites when everything is delicious! Their wedding cakes are beautiful & their macarons are so cute and tasty. You have to try their yummy creations for yourself!!
