Best cakes in north texas.

Sweet By Design = Amazing.

I have a culinary and pastry background and am very picky about my food and sweets but Melissa was able to knock my socks off. Not only were her cakes beautiful and exactly what I wanted, they tasted AMAZING. I will continue to use her services for any occasion!

Cake was perfect!

Our cake was so perfect—exactly what I asked for! Simple, elegant, and tasted SO good. Melisa was so easy to work with and her communication was top notch. Everyone enjoyed the cake and I can’t wait to dig back in on our one year anniversary!!

Melisa hit the wedding cake design out of the park! We gave her a vague description of what we wanted (semi-naked and some colors to work with) and she put it all together beautifully! Not only was our cake delicious, but it was almost too pretty to eat! Since my then fiancé and I like different cake flavors but only wanted one cake, she was able to alternate cake flavors in each layer. She even found a way to save us some money on our cake, which is not something a lot of wedding vendors will do. We'll definitely come back to Melisa for our anniversary cakes :)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
