1st birthday cake/smash cake

The Sweet Life made the perfect birthday and smash cake for our Grandson. His theme was Mickey Mouse. We couldn't have asked for a better design and the cake was delicious.

Creative and Tasty!!

I can't say enough good things about Lori. Lori recently made a welding machine Groom's cake for my son's wedding rehearsal dinner. My son drew a picture of exactly what he wanted and Lori made it come to life in the form of a cake. It was AMAZING AND DELICIOUS!!! When I went to pick up the cake I also purchased three cupcakes from the display case. They were heavenly!!! I can't thank Lori enough!! I HIGHLY recommend THE SWEET LIFE BAKERY!!

Gorgeous and tasty!

This was the 4th custom cake I've gotten from The Sweet Life, I haven't been disappointed. I've done birthday, retirement and graduation cakes and each has been awesome, exactly what I asked for. This one was even more special since it was my wedding cake. I found a picture, gave that with my modification requests and Lori brought it to life. It was gorgeous and delicious.

Gorgeous cakes!

Lori is beyond creative and made my ideas and dreams come to life. Our wedding cake was gorgeous and the hardest decision was choosing only a few from all of her awesome flavors. She was so easy going and flexible and made the whole process seamless. Our grooms cake was so cool and looked exactly like the picture I found.

Lori was so wonderful to work with. We had a dessert reception with a combination of items from her and family recipes. She was so helpful in ensuring we had the right mix of items as well as serving platters. The desserts were absolutely delicious!

THE BEST CAKES AND CUPCAKES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! Lori was accommodating to our schedule and open to any suggestions my husband and I had. We had The Sweet Life do our rehearsal dinner cake, our wedding cake, and cupcakes for the wedding. They have such a variety of flavors it was hard to just choose a couple to have at our wedding. Her prices were reasonable and all the desserts were to die for! Every time I was in town doing wedding errands I would make sure I'd stop in to The Sweet Life and grab a cupcake. They are delectable! Lori has such talent. My husband and I did a mountain bike theme for our wedding and both our rehearsal dinner cake and wedding cake for the cutting were decorated as mountain bike trails. It was unbelievable. All the guests LOVED the cupcakes! I was so thrilled we had some leftover so we could take them home and eat them! I recommend the caramel apple cupcake and the orange dreamsicle but you cannot go wrong with any of her flavors! I would HIGHLY recommend The Sweet Life to anyone at anytime! (The food they have there is also amazing-when I stopped for a cupcake I would also eat lunch there)
