A Must-Hire for Wedding Cakes and Desserts

I can’t recommend Paints & Pans enough for wedding cakes and desserts! The owner, Jenna, is incredibly talented and creates some of the most stunning cakes I’ve ever seen—truly, if you can dream it, she can bring it to life.

Jenna set up a private tasting for us where we sampled her most popular flavors and talked through all the details and next steps. We ultimately chose a smaller cutting cake along with a variety of cupcakes in different flavors for our guests, and everything was absolutely delicious. The cake itself was not only beautiful but tasted amazing.

One thing I especially appreciated was Jenna’s care and attention to food allergies and dietary restrictions. She took them very seriously and thoughtfully packaged allergen-friendly cupcakes separately so all of our guests could enjoy dessert without worry. That level of care meant so much to us.

Jenna is a true professional and an absolute joy to work with. We’re already counting down the days until our one-year anniversary so we can defrost our cake and enjoy it all over again—it was that good!

Extremely Talented

Jenna was great to work with. We are not local and was only able to go to the area once for a tasting. We provided a picture afterwards as an idea of what we were looking for & added a little more to it. She completely made our vision come to life. Not only was she responsive and affordable, but she is SO talented. I couldn’t ask for a better baker / cake decorator to complete our vision.

"best wedding cake I've ever had"

Our wedding cake from Paints and Pans was amazing. We had an apple cider cake with spiced buttercream frosting, and our guests said it was the best wedding cake they'd ever had. Jenna brought our aesthetic vision to life, and was easy to work with, and has SO many flavor combos to choose from. Highly recommend!!

The most delicious treat ever!!!

Working with Jenna was the easiest thing ever! My grandmother was passionate about a cake so she accompanied my husband and I to the tasting and Jenna made her feel so special! We ended up getting multiple flavor combinations (I think 6 different combinations total!) because we wanted a small cake for us to cut into and cupcakes for everyone else. I figured I had ordered a few too many (better to have too much than not enough), but by the time I went to grab one to try a flavor beyond our cake flavor and they were all gone! Even the crumbs were licked up off the plates! SO SO SO YUMMY AND ADORABLE! Jenna did frosting succulents on the cupcakes and put real cupcakes on our small two-tiered cake. Absolutely fabulous!

Amazing cake (October 1, 2022 wedding)

We loved our wedding cake from Paints & Pans! We chose a lemon cake with raspberry buttercream. Many of our guests raved about how delicious the cake was.

Jenna was so easy to work with! She has so many beautiful cakes and made customizing ours so fun!

We would definitely choose to order a cake from Paints & Pans for our next event!

Outstanding cake!

When my groom half-jokingly said he wanted a bleeding armadillo grooms cake, I suggested lobster instead. We found Jenna and are so glad we did! Her apple cider cake is scrumptious and she executed our cake so perfectly guests literally thought it was a decoration and not a cake! Unfortunately our coordinators didn't serve it either so it went largely untouched. But we at least had some - it was delicious as it was beautiful. Highly recommend - just make sure someone knows to serve it!

Delicious!

Our venue included a wedding cake from Paints and Pans. It was absolutely delicious and picture perfect! My husband has celiac but that was no problem for Jenna! Her gluten free cake is amazing- a moist, tasty GF cake is not an easy thing to master, but she sure did! Jennas portfolio is out of this world. She truly creates masterpieces!

All of our guest raved how great the cake tasted and how beautiful it was! I will forever be going to Paints and Pans for speciality cakes.

3 tier cake & dozen GF chocolate cupcakes
(1st- GF funfetti with vanilla frosting)
(2nd- Vanilla with Coconut frosting)
(3rd- Funfetti with Vanilla frosting)

So wonderful to work with

Jenna was recommended to us by The Wilder for our wedding cake. She was phenomenal to work with, and the cake was so delicious! We corresponded over email a few times, and went in for a consultation and small tasting 1-2 months before the wedding. She asked for inspiration photos of the style of cake we wanted, and offered ideas and suggestions when we were unsure of what we wanted to do. She was accommodating, professional, and a joy to work with. I could not recommend her more for anyone getting married in the NH area. And the cake was DELICIOUS, to boot

Incredible

We can’t thank Paints and Pans enough for creating such beautiful and tasty wedding cakes!

Jenna made cakes for both our small elopement and our full wedding celebration in 2021.

She took our vision and created just that and more!

More than just beautiful cakes, Jenna’s is very communicative and was always there to answer any questions.

Not to mention, the cakes were SO DELICIOUS! Seriously, not a single crumb left.

We cannot recommend Jenna enough for all of her hard work. We’re so thankful!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
