Beautiful & Delicious

The cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious! Amy was easy to get a hold of, and she even let us borrow a cake stand. It was really fun getting to try different cakes before the wedding, and her chocolate cake is amazing! I would highly recommend

Delicious and Beautiful

Our wedding cake was stunning and absolutely delicious. Amy was such a dream to communicate with and offered great suggestions for the size and decor of the cake. All our guests commented how delicious it was!

Cake was a stunner!

The Cakery delivered on every expectation for a gorgeous and delicious cake. We loved our cake and enjoyed working with Amy to design it. Amy was also tremendously helpful in baking our favors which included cookies from our heritages (German & Italian) for our guests to enjoy. I would highly recommend The Cakery if you're looking for a delicious wedding cake that can be created to suit exactly what you're looking for and more! We can't wait to enjoy our top tier at our one year anniversary!

Lovely Experience

Amy is one talented baker. Our wedding cake was so good we ran out! She also offers tasting options to allow couples to decide on flavors though they were all so good it was actually quite hard to make decisions!

Delicious, beautiful, moist cake!

Everyone knows what it is like to go to a wedding and be totally disappointed with the cake (like at my own!) but for my daughter’s wedding we decided to go with The Cakery and did not regret that decision one bit! We ordered 400 cupcakes plus a two tier cake and there wasn’t one bit left. In hind sight I should have ordered double that! Who knew some people loved the cupcakes so much that they came back for 3 or 4 MORE!! I highly recommend The Cakery and promise you will not be disappointed!

Our Custom Cake was Perfection!

I contacted Amy within 2 months of our wedding date as our first baker backed out. I had my heart set on an Earl Grey Tea Cake with Honey Buttercream. I later requested she decorate it with raw honeycomb. Amy shared her excitement in trying something new and provided an incredible sampling. She shared with me her plans for it's aesthetic, and it came out more beautiful than I could imagine! I highly recommend the Cakery to anyone!

Highly Recommend!

We love The Cakery! Both Lonielle and Amy were fantastic to work with. Our tasting with Amy was so much fun, and because all of their cake flavors are so delicious, it was hard to narrow down our selections! Amy was super helpful and accomodating as we discussed options for our wedding cake and cupcakes, and she was attentive to every detail as we talked through our vision. Not only were we able to ultimately select a variety of flavors (funfetti!) and frostings, but she was able to provide gluten-free cupcakes for some of our guests. Cutting our cake on our wedding day was such a fun and memorable moment - the cake was absolutely gorgeous, and exactly what we were envisioning! The cupcakes for our dessert table were also incredible, and everything tasted so amazing! We were thrilled with our desserts from The Cakery - thank you, Amy and Lonielle!!

A Perfect Cake

The best wedding cake I've ever had. Her carrot cake is to die for and she nailed the look we were going for.

Excellent wedding cake!

The Cakery is the best! I received multiple compliments from my wedding guests on how delicious and moist the cake was. From the moment I contacted the Cakery to my wedding date, the responsiveness of Lonielle was superb!
