Delicious and Beautiful!

Carolyn and her team baked the perfect cake for my wedding! It was absolutely delicious and all the guests couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved it! I would highly recommend Carolyn and her crew.

The perfect cake!

We had a destination wedding this July in Rohnert Park and Carolyn was awesome to work with for our wedding cake. We unfortunately didn't have the pleasure to meet her in person and do tastings as my husband and I don't live in California but we are so glad we went with Your Sweet Expectations.

After a couple phone conversations with Carolyn we decided to play it safe and stick with a 3 tier Vanilla cake (2 tiers of chocolate icing and 1 strawberry!) and it turned out AMAZING. I wish I wasn't the bride so I could have indulged in a few slices. It was so beautifully decorated and our friends and family said it was the BEST cake they've ever had - I have to agree.

I can't rave enough about our cake! All of my guests asked us where our cake was from because it was so delicious.
