We highly recommend the Novel Baker! Alexis made our wedding cake and did an absolutely phenomenal job. The cake turned out beautiful and delicious, and we received lots of compliments from our guests! We really enjoyed the complimentary tasting and appreciated how Alexis listened and took all our preferences into consideration as she made us the perfect cake. She is super talented and knowledgeable and understood exactly how much cake we would need for our event and even how the icing should lay depending on the room temperature to make sure it all stayed together. She thought of details that we as the bride and groom didn’t. Alexis was super responsive via email and personally delivered the cake to our venue on a Sunday. You can just tell how much heart and soul goes into each dessert, so if you’re in need of desserts for your large event or just want a delicious treat, look no further!! 10/10! Thank you, Alexis!

We met with Alexa to taste her cakes for our wedding and absolutely loved every flavor she provided us with. She was incredibly helpful when choosing on a wedding cake flavor and cupcake flavors for our guests. She had many choices to choose from and we were blown away at all the combinations we could do! Our wedding cake was absolutely stunning and the cupcakes were a hit! All the guests enjoyed them and were impressed with her attention to detail on decorating. We cannot thank her enough for her hard work!

Alexis did an amazing job on our wedding cake. We even contacted her a month before the wedding and she pulled it together with no problem. We did an apple and a banana cake with the salted caramel icing...absolutely amazing! All of our guests loved the cake, no leftovers 😊 Our cake was gorgeous, put together with elegance and wonderful talent. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. We would definitely recommend Alexis and go to her for our future events.

Alexis was a pleasure to work with. She went out of her way to accommodate a special design request and went through several design iterations until she perfected the design. The cake was beautiful on the day of the wedding, and she artistically placed the flowers that the floral designer brought which matched the centerpieces. Alexis's cakes are exceptional in flavor and texture, and we received numerous compliments from our guests about how good the cake tasted. Her cookies are great, too! We would definitely work with her again in a heartbeat.

Alexis was so wonderful to work with. She made us feel like family from our very first conversation to our cake tasting, all the way up until the very end. Her passion for baking and creating art through her cakes shined through. She helped us create the most beautiful cake that tastes like heaven on a fork, while also helping us to keep within our budget.

We had a FANTASTIC experience with Alexis from The Novel Baker! I found her through some googling and I loved the aesthetic of her cakes and her website. Everything looked gorgeous. The most important thing to me, of course, was that our cake also tasted delicious, and when we went to taste Alexis' cakes at her (adorable) studio, it was no question that we would hire her. The cake, both at the tasting and at our wedding, was moist and rich with really tasty icing. It was also very flavorful, which our guests commented was not always the case with wedding cakes (we chose almond cake). In terms of design, I had tons of photos from Pinterest and I felt like Alexis really paid attention to what I wanted, helping me hone in on which details I liked best. She executed the cake decoration flawlessly on the day of. I was really bowled over when I saw it! I spent a lot of time looking at sites like Style Me Pretty and I can honestly say that my wedding cake turned out to be my favorite of all the ones I've seen. Another thing that was important to me was the price, and Alexis' pricing is extremely reasonable. Considering that the quality of her cakes is much higher than some of the other places we tasted, I was really pleased that the price was well within our budget. She didn't push us to have a bigger cake than we needed, either, because she considered factors like other desserts we were having and how some guests just don't end up eating the cake. Even though she was coming from an hour away, since our wedding was near Philadelphia, she did not charge very much for delivery (in fact I think she lowered her delivery price for us). She is also very responsive to email, which is great; it is so much easier to trust a vendor when they are very organized, as Alexis is. My florist even told me that I had found a baker who knew what she was doing when I mentioned that Alexis preferred to place the flowers on the cake herself, rather than having the florist do it. Both my husband and I were so, so happy with the entire process working with Alexis, especially the end result (you can see it in the photos of our faces when we take our first bite!). Take it from someone who did a lot of research to ensure she was getting the best quality, both taste and looks-wise, for the best price - hire The Novel Baker!

Our cake was both beautiful and absolutely delicious. Working with Alexis was wonderful--she is very professional, responded to all my requests, and her bakery is so beautiful! I received many compliments from guests on the beauty of the cake and how delicious each layer was. I recommend Alexis and The Novel Baker hands down!

Alexis at The Novel Baker was amazing at making my vision for my dessert table & wedding cake come true! Everything tasted amazing too! Everyone raved about her banana bread cake pops & my chocolate chip pound cake

Alexis is the best! We contacted her for a cake for our son’s Baptism and she invited us to her beautiful work space in Dublin for a tasting. There were so many options that were absolutely delicious! It was tough to choose and Alexis was so helpful in the decision process. She provided great ideas regarding style, colors, and complimentary flavors. She is very flexible with options and is willing to try anything. We were able to choose multiple flavors in our cake and cupcakes to satisfy all of our guests. She delivered the cake and cupcakes the day of and decorated a beautiful dessert table that was the focal point of the party. I highly recommend The Novel Baker for all your baking needs! We will use her again and again in the future! Thanks again Alexis!

My family has used The Novel Baker on several occasions and each time, our guests come to us with nothing but amazing compliments on the cookies, cakes, cupcakes, and shimmering Oreos! Alexis and her team are professional and kind and created a stunning Sweet Table for my mother's 60th birthday bash and my nephews Baptism. My sister and mom got to experience a really adorable putting together while they sampled the various cakes and fillings before choosing which ones they wanted. I've also worked personally on multiple occasions with Alexis for wedding and stylized shoots and her cakes are always beautiful, always a novelty, and always DELICIOUS!
