Re: Amazing

I met with Melissa personally and she was very personable. The cake samples tasted fantastic and the icing was my favorite part.

Mrs. Melissa did my wedding cake and it was absolutely gorgeous! You can't go wrong if you choose Mrs. Melissa to make your cake for your special day. The cake was also moist and delicious! My hubby also loved his Miami Dolphins cake! I also stop by her local bakery whenever I want a tasty treat. I will definitely use her for future events!

My cakes tasted so good and they looked fantastic! People talked about how beautiful they were all night and delighted in their slices. Melissa did exactly what I asked for at an affordable price. She is so nice and excited for me. I highly recommend her.

She was able to understand what kind of cake that my husband and I wanted. She understood that we did not want fondant and that we did want buttercream frosting. I love the cake that she made and everyone love the design of the claddagh she did. The cake was spectacular. The taste of the cake was amazing, and was not dry at all.

Absolutely perfection! She makes her fondant from scratch, so it tastes like confectioner's sugar instead of chalk. The staff member cutting the cake even made a comment on how easy it was to cut through the soft, thin layer. Everyone couldn't say enough about how delicious the cake was! We didn't go with a traditional wedding cake look, and she pulled it off beautifully. I'm so glad we went with her. She is so great at what she does and made that part of planning our wedding so simple and fun! Thank you!

Melissa made the most beautiful wedding cake for me. She did exactly what I wanted for my cake. I could not have choosen a better person to design my cake. She did a wonderful job helping me select my linens and they were beautiful at the reception! I will never go anywhere else again for any party needs!

A Plan To Remember A Plan To Remember Wedding Planners

I not only suggest my clients to use Melissa's Specialty Cakes, but she is the first person I turn to when I need something for myself! I have sat in many consults with my brides where they have brought her images of a cake they like and it's too big or too small and she has recreated them a cake that is totally their own. Have a concept but haven't seen an image on the internet, no worries Melissa can bring your thoughts to life! She makes her own fondant from scratch and her cake is super fresh! My personal favorite -- white almond with raspberry filling -- YUMMY!!!!
