I hate to leave such a sad review because my wedding cake was delicious and beautiful...

Sedona Cake Couture came with a package from my venue so I looked them up. I was so excited once I saw her beautiful cakes and that they have been in competitions on the Food Network. Once I started communicating through e-mail with Andrea, the owner, I immediately knew this wasn't going to be an enjoyable experience. She was very short, and seemed annoyed with my e-mails. Even though she didn't treat me well, I still was overly nice because I didn't want my wedding cake to get messed up.

On the website, it stated if you have over 29 guests then they do a sit-down tasting in the shop. When I told Andrea my contract said I was having 29 guests, but I was indeed having more, she didn't offer an in-store tasting, she told me to let her know when I can come to Sedona and pick up my samples. Fine, I don't need to do it in store, I'm just excited to taste the cakes! I then e-mailed her and let her know when I was going to be in Sedona to pick up the samples, no response. Then came the day I was in Sedona and I e-mailed Andrea asking her if I could come by the shop, no response. Finally my mom got mad and told me to e-mail her and tell her we were coming to get the samples, so I did. Guess what? Andrea then replied and said we could come. When we got there she had the samples ready, didn't seem pleased to meet us and did not want to talk to us at all, just wanted us to leave so she could get back to work.

The samples were delicious and I chose Chocolate marble strawberry, it was so yummy!

My wedding day came, the cake turned out beautiful and my guests loved it. I am saving my top tier for my one year anniversary.

I really wish Andrea was more sociable and nice to her customers, because if my venue didn't hire her already, I wouldn't have gone with her. The cake was great, she was not.

OH MY GOODNESS WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CAKE!
We were so impressed with Andrea's creativity and how she has a finger on the pulse of wedding cake trends. We had an idea of what we wanted for our cake, but she took us through hundreds of photos until we all decided on something that was going to be unique to us and our venue. Can you tell which log in the photo is our cake? :)

The flavors were delicious--albeit quite sweet--and we got a lot of positive feedback from guests. Note that it can be difficult to cut through the outside frosting layer, so we had to put some force into it during the cake cutting portion of the evening.

We also ordered cactus cookies as wedding favors--which were pricey--but even larger than we expected. Very cute!

We had our wedding at L' Auberge and the cake was included in the cost of the wedding. That said, the cake could have gone either way, but it was even better than we imagined!

Recommend!!

It was more than I had even hoped!!! Our cake was beautiful and also delicious! Andrea was easy and very pleasant to work with! We loved it and would highly recommend her! We also ordered cookies as part of our welcome boxs for our guest and really added a cute touch!
