Fabolous Cake

Simma’s made our wedding cake, and it was absolutely delicious! Every guest loved it, and we’ve been getting so many compliments about how amazing it was. We can’t wait to cut into the top tier for our anniversary and enjoy it all over again.

Everyone who recommended Simma’s to us was 100% right, they are truly the best! We’re so happy we chose them for our special day.

Dream Wedding Cake - Tasty, Beautiful, and Unique to Us!

Simma's created our dream 5-tier wedding cake! We had a wonderful time doing the tasting with Peggy and picked the genoise cake with fresh strawberries and white chocolate ganache. One of our guests who is with the Food Network commented specifically on how amazing our cake was. On top of the taste, it was BEAUTIFUL! We had alternating gold foil and white swiss dot tiers, and our florist was able to add fresh flowers to the top and bottom. We'll add a photo to this review when we have our professional photos back. The love that Peggy has for her cakes and her wedding couples is unmatched. Thank you Peggy and Simma's!

Beautiful, Delicious, Unforgettable — Our Wedding Cake by Simma’s

We had an incredible experience with Simma’s Bakery for our wedding cake! Peggy was an absolute joy to work with — kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to help bring our vision to life. From the cake tasting (which was such a fun and delicious experience!) to the big day itself, everything was seamless. The cake looked beautiful and tasted even better. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved it — truly one of the highlights of the reception. We’re so grateful to Peggy and the entire Simma’s team for making such a special part of our day perfect. Highly, highly recommend!

Best Cake Ever

Simma's is my favorite bakery so I knew I needed to have them make our cake for the wedding. We did a tasting with them and that experience was amazing. Everything we tasted was delicious. Our wedding cake was so yummy and decorated just how we wanted. Everyone complimented how good our cake was. I would definitely recommend using Simma's Bakery for your wedding cake.

So Amazing!

Simmas is a family favorite on my husbands side as he is from Milwaukee so he insisted that’s where we got our cake and it was the best choice! Our guests were going back for seconds and we were able to take some to our work friends that didn’t attend the wedding and they kept saying “this is the best cheesecake I’ve ever had” aside from taste Simmas was so easy to work with as we were coming in from out of town and they made it as simple as possible for us. I would recommend to anyone in Milwaukee or surrounding areas.

Fantastic!

My cake was very good!! I love how it looks like last night! The red velvet on top is gone because they all loved it! The bottom one we saved half of it, my mom asked for the quarter, and the other quarter we’ll be eating it 💕

Absolutely delicious and gorgeous wedding cake!

We were SO happy with the wedding cake we ordered from Simma's Bakery! We went with a two-tier round cake plus a couple sheet cakes for a reception of ~100 guests. It was so, so delicious! The raspberry filling with the mix of vanilla and chocolate layers was yummy... plus, the buttercream frosting is rich but oh so tasty! I was able to send a couple pictures of design ideas, and the final product turned out perfect. Looking forward to going back for our anniversary cake next year. :)

Delicious Cake!

We got married at The Ivy House on April 16, 2022. We did popsicles as a dessert for our guests, but we still wanted a traditional cake for ourselves and our wedding party. Simma’s is our favorite bakery in the area, so this was a no-brainer when we decided on having a cake. We went in for a tasting which answered all of our questions and was extremely helpful to the process. It was pretty hard to narrow it down to one flavor, but we eventually agreed on a delicious combination!

We did a two-tier cake with fresh strawberries inside and blue painted decor to match our wedding colors. The cake arrived on time and in perfect condition. Everyone said it was delicious! We decided to save the top part and freeze it so we can enjoy it on our year anniversary. I can’t wait to eat more of it! Simma’s has a huge variety of flavors and options. You will not be disappointed in whatever you order from them! Best desserts around!

Excellent Cake

I tend to be very picky when it comes to desserts because I do a lot of baking, but Simma's blew me away with how delicious the cake was. We picked a poppyseed cake with a lemon filling, and the cake was so moist and flavorful, with the smoothest buttercream I've ever had. I got so many compliments on my choice of cake and I would highly recommend Simma's to others!
