Our Cake was Divine!

Choosing The Baker’s Box for our wedding cake was one of the best decisions we made! Everything about the experience was first rate (the tasting, the communication, the delivery and, of course, the cake itself). Mara is one of the kindest humans you will ever meet, and her cakes taste like heaven on Earth. We chose chocolate with buttercream frosting, and she adorned it with some of our flowers. It was simple yet extraordinary. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it!

The best cake & cupcakes in town

I have been asked by everyone where we got my daughter's wedding cake & cupcakes. We ordered 4 different flavors and the cake was red velvet, all were moist and delicious... I am so thankful that they were available for their wedding date. We did cake tasting at several places, but none compared to The Baker's Box

Awsome experience at a great value

My wife and I looked into several cake bakeries, but in the end, we chose Mara. Simply put, she was awesome, everything about the cake was awesome, and the value that you get is undeniable. She even argued with our venue to move the cake table to ensure the safely of our cake. Don't let her busy restaurant scare you. When it's "your" day, nothing else matters to her.

LGBTQ friendly

We were initially having a lot of problems finding vendors that are LGBTQ friendly. Mara at The Baker’s Box is so down to earth and realistic. The whole experience was short of amazing. Thank you so much!

The BEST Wedding Cake!

Wow, we are so so happy we chose The Bakers Box for our Wedding Day cake!! They were recommended by our venue (Rumbling Bald) and it was the most delicious cake I've ever had anywhere. We went with the lemon raspberry cake with buttercream frosting. Us and our guests were blown away. I would travel to NC for a slice of that any day. Mara was super easy to work with, very responsive and helpful in making our wedding day cake vision come to life. She's truly talented - I highly recommend!
