The Best (and Most Delicious!) Day of Our Lives

Melissa's Simply Sweet really was the icing on the cake for our wedding! Melissa was so friendly and open to trying lots of options for our desserts. Her creativity and hard work helped us to have a memorable selection of cake shooters and central cake. It's easy to say that the guests loved all the options because the bride and groom were only able to sneak off with just a slice or two of cake at the end of the night (which may or may not have been eaten promptly the next morning as breakfast). Everyone loved Melissa's creations, and we would highly recommend her for any party or event!

Delicious Allergen-Friendly Baker!

We were so glad to serve Melissa’s Simply Sweet Bakery at our wedding! The cake was delicious, and Melissa also made us a beautiful dessert table to offer our guests more option than cake. It was delicious, and we hope to order again for ourselves soon!

Melissa took what I had envisioned for both my grooms cake and my wedding cakes and brought them to life. Not only were they beautiful but delicious too.

Wonderful wedding cake

I’m not a sweets person but I will eat Melissa’s cake! It is very light, moist, and not overly sweet. She made a beautiful cake for my wedding and a cake for our one year anniversary that I look forward to eating!

Melissa is awesome!!!

I met with Melissa before COVID for a tasting. Her cupcakes are AMAZING! I eventually had to move my wedding due to the circumstances. She moved with me and displayed a beautiful arrangement of a desert bar with my cake. Highly recommend!!!
