Amazing Cake, great customer service

They took my vision and made it better than I envisioned and it also tasted amazing. She recreated the lace on my dress and put it in edible form on my cake and it was beautiful! She drove it an hour away and set it up, and it was flawless. Highly recommended

Absolutely Amazing

Darmayne and her team at Sweet Confections are absolutely amazing. We had her make a small wooden looking cake for our wedding as well as a dessert table filled of a variety of mini desserts for our wedding.

To say she exceeded our expectations is putting it lightly. This team blew our expectations out of the water. The mini desserts were absolutely gorgeous, I believe there were over 600 of them. And our cake looked so much like wood. I cannot even believe it.

The taste was so good on everything. All of our guests were raving asking where we found someone able to do what she did.

Highly highly highly recommend.

Completely speechless

Sweet Confections was down right amazing. There’s nothing bad I could say about our experience. They were so kind and personable and attentive and really made our visions come to life. The cake was INSANELY gorgeous and the guests were in complete amazement. The cake stood out amongst everything else. It was a literal masterpiece and DELICIOUS. There was not a single person who didn’t enjoy every last bite of that cake. I hope my temptations don’t get the best of me before our 1 year anniversary, but it looks to good to sit in my freezer the next 12 months.

The Best Cake

I have been getting so many compliments on how amazing our wedding cake was and I couldn’t agree more. Working with Darmaine was so easy and the cake was absolutely beautiful. I’m not the type of person who like frosting but the buttercream was out of this world. This was the best wedding cake I have ever had.

The Best Wedding Cake Ever

Sweet Confections went above and beyond with our wedding cake. We had a great experience working with them from the initial cake tasting to our wedding day. They were flexible and understanding when we had to postpone our wedding date. They were also very accommodating when we wanted to add a mountain texture to two of our cake layers. We were blown away by how well the cake design was executed. The cake was so delicious that all of our guests kept on raving about it throughout the night. We went with chocolate cake w/ cookies and cream buttercream and vanilla w/ strawberry champagne buttercream which were equally as delicious. From when the cake arrived to when it was served, it remained moist and soft. I definitely recommend Sweet Confections if you want a beautiful cake with a variety of flavor options!
