    Above and beyond our expectations!

    We were so excited to choose our wedding cake and Ashley Cakes made the process so fun and easy! It was so impressive to watch our wedding cake be designed live. She took our inspiration and ideas and made it so much more beautiful than we could have imagined. The cakes was as delicious as they are beautiful and they had such great flavors to choose from. We can’t wait for our first anniversary to have this cake again!

    our dream wedding cake

    Ashley Cakes designed our dream wedding cake in June. Meeting with them at their cake studio a few months before our wedding was really fun - we got to try multiple cake flavors and talk in detail about our wedding cake vision. Both Ashley and Josh are incredibly nice and great to work with! We wanted something very romantic and floral for our wedding and Ashley came up with wonderful ideas. She also was able to make her famous snickerdoodle flavor gluten-free which was great since I developed an allergy during the wedding planning process. Our florist delivered fresh florals to the wedding venue the day of and Ashley placed the flowers herself. All our guests raved about the design, the flavor of the carrot cake and GF snickerdoodle cake, and we just wish we had more leftovers, but will look forward to our anniversary cake.

    Most amazing wedding cake!

    Ashley Cakes are true professionals! And they are the sweetest people ever! They created the cake of my daughter’s dreams - and it was as delicious as it was beautiful! The fresh strawberry flavor was sheer perfection for our May wedding. And to add to her talents, she gave our daughter a sketch of her cake which we displayed at the wedding! Such a special touch! If you are looking for a dream wedding cake, call Ashley Cakes! They are the BEST!

    Most beautiful and most yummy wedding cake. It was the most fun wedding planning part designing the cake in their cute cake cottage!

    Beautiful and delicious!

    When I first started the planning process, there was only one baker I considered for my wedding cake and it was Ashley. She and her husband, Josh, were a pleasure to work with. It was very hard deciding upon cake flavors because everything we tasted was delicious! The design process was great, too. Ashley listened to what we wanted and also gave her own suggestions. It was so much fun watching her sketch our cake during our consult and the finished product was fabulous! All of our guests loved our wedding cake and we received many compliments about how delicious it was. I can't wait for our first anniversary so we can get another cake!

    Perfect Cake!

    Highly recommend using Ashley Cakes for your wedding! Their cakes are not only beautiful but they are delicious. We had some guests who just camped out at the cake table because it was THAT good. My favorite part of working with Ashley is that she creates a digital design of your cake that you can frame and display. Just a cute little detail that you wouldn't get elsewhere!

    Better than my DREAM Wedding Cake

    My husband was really set on doing a buffet dinner and cupcakes while I wanted a plated meal and a tiered cake. He may have won on the buffet but when we decided on our cake with Ashley and Josh, we didn't even look anywhere else. I was so sold after meeting them and trying that cake, you couldn't have convinced me otherwise. I really wanted the cake to be a focal point and just something unique about the wedding. We had three flavors in a five tier cake. The best part was that it was a full navy blue cake, with gold around the edges and hand painted fall pallet colored flowers. Y'all, it was STUNNING. I wouldn't have changed a thing about it. People are still telling me how delicious it was. Ashley's Cakes IS the right choice for your wedding.

    Amazing cake! Beautifully done.

    Ashley created a *stunning* cake - that tasted just as good as it looked. She designed exactly what I envisioned in my head and was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. I was out-of-state during the planning, and she happily set up a tasting for both my parents and for me. Ashley also helped us land on the idea of a "tuxedo cake", so that each slice had two different flavors for guest to try. Overall, I would absolutely recommend Ashley.

    Beautiful and Delicious Cake!

    Ashley and Josh were easy and fun to work with! Our cake was not only beautiful but delicious also! We had two flavors: snickerdoodle with cinnamon cream, and dark chocolate with raspberry filling. The planning process involved cake tasting and sitting down with Ashley to go over the design. She sketched the design as we talked with her. (I still have my sketch as a fun souvenir of the process!) She will do any combination of cakes and fillings, and she makes an anniversary cake one year later, which we are super excited for! I can't recommend Ashley Cakes enough. The design came out as exactly what we wanted, and our guests raved about the tasty cake!

    Beautiful and Delicious!

    Ashley Cakes did a wonderful job! When looking for cake vendors, I knew that her cakes were by far the prettiest I had seen. Once I tasted them, it was a done deal. Every flavor was delicious and it was difficult to figure out which to choose. I found a cake design on Instagram that I loved and Ashley was kind enough to order a stencil to match the lace detailing used in the inspiration photo. She was responsive, easy to work with and I was thrilled with the outcome - both design and flavor. I would highly recommend working with Ashley Cakes for your wedding or any other event!

    Best cake you will ever have!

    Ashley's cakes are absolutely amazing. I don't even like cake, but I could not stop eating the (small amount) of leftovers from our wedding cake. Her designs are equally as amazing; she turned my ideas into a cake more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! And she includes a fresh anniversary cake as part of the package, so no need to attempt to save the top tier. Ashley and her husband are so sweet and great to work with, we highly recommend them!

    Ashley Cakes was great to work with!

    Loved working with Ashley and her husband on creating our dream wedding cake! Ashley is super sweet, and her husband is awesome. We had heard great things about Ashley Cakes prior to scheduling a cake tasting, and we loved how flexible the cake tasting was. We were able to pick up the cake tastings to-go, which worked perfectly with our busy schedule. At our cake tasting pick-up, Ashley and her husband introduced themselves, showed a few sample cakes, explained the process, described the tastings and recommended a cake size for our guest count. Their cake shop is so cute, and the cakes were gorgeous! As for the cake tasting, all of the flavors were delicious — it was so hard to pick which flavors we wanted!

    On the day of, Ashley delivered the cake as well as a sketch of the cake that we could frame. The cake was just what we wanted and tasted awesome (as expected), and delivery was timely. Thank you, Ashley Cakes! We really enjoyed working with you.

    Ashley Cakes is perfect. The booking & design process was super easy. She gave us 6 different samples to try. Then we did a cake design consult over facetime. Ashley is so friendly, prompt at returning emails, and had great suggestions for our design. My cake looked amazing, I got so many compliments. It also tasted amazing too, several guests ate multiple slices. I love that she had large variety of flavors to chose from. I found her pricing to be straight forward. The cake stand was included, She had many different cake stands to chose from. She also includes the sketch she does of your cake, and a cake for your 1 year anniversary.

    Working with Ashley Cakes was such a breeze. My mom and I met with Ashley at a consultation at her beautiful cake cottage! We took some pictures and ideas and she sketched a design of our cake during our meeting. She understood our vision immediately and we were sold! She was even willing to assemble fresh flowers on the cake provided by our florist. My fiance (now husband!) could not join our consultation so she packed a box with 4 different combinations of cake flavors and icing to share with him. We chose a classic almond cake with buttercream icing. This combination was simple but far from ordinary! We have received many compliments on not only the beautiful design but also the great flavor of the cake. Ashley Cakes is well-known in the Raleigh area and it is easy to see why. Ashley is highly experienced, professional and so sweet!

    Our wedding cake by Ashley Cakes was delicious and so beautiful! Ashley is so sweet and was such a pleasure to work with. She really listened to us and created a cake that was perfect and unique, including funfetti icing and a lace pattern on the buttercream! She has beautiful cake stands too. I would highly recommend Ashley Cakes!

    We absolutely loved all of our cakes from Ashley Cakes. They were so pretty and totally what I asked for and more, not only that they taste amazing as well. Ashley and her Husband were so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure my cakes were perfect for our big day. I will for sure use them again.

    I loved working with Ashley Cakes. She made us a beautiful 4 tier cake with red velvet, banana pudding, and coconut cake. Our guests were impressed by the design and taste of the cake. Truly the most delicious cake I've ever had. I highly recommend Ashley and her husband. Well worth the money!

    Ashley's cakes are always so delicious, and our cakes were no exception. I didn't have a clear idea of how I wanted our wedding cake and groom's cake to look, but Ashley and Josh had great ideas at our initial meeting that helped greatly! We had a music theme, and Ashley's idea to write the lyrics from our theme song on the cake was brilliant! It was a hit and we are still receiving compliments from how gorgeous and tasty the cakes were. Whether wedding, birthday, or any celebration that needs a great cake: we would not hesitate to refer people to Ashley Cakes!

    I can't recommend Ashley Cakes enough. Ashley and Josh were so friendly and helpful in guiding us through what we were looking for as we had no idea when we first met with them. The cake looked absolutely perfect and was delicious. Couldn't ask for more!

    Ashley was recommended to us by our awesome DJ (Kevin Majoros of KM DJ Company). He said "her cakes are like crack."

    I'd have to concur. Ashley makes (quite literally) one of the best tasting cakes I've ever had. My husband and I love cake, and I was worried that we'd be stuck with a pretty, but bad tasting fondant or oily frosted wedding cake. Not with Ashley - she uses the buttercream you remember from days growing up making cakes with your mom or grandmother. So. yummy. And also equally beautiful!

    Let's just say that I was most excited for the cake tasting part of wedding planning, and that was the one disappointment Ashley provided - we only got to taste hers and then we were set :)

    She also went out of her way to make special cupcakes for my mom's birthday during a busy wedding season because my mom has also become addicted to her cakes.

    Very friendly, personable and easy to work with. Her cakes are ... amazing!

    I can't say enough nice things about Ashley Cakes! Ashley created a cake that was exactly what my husband and I wanted, even though we made an alteration to our design a few weeks before the wedding. She also incorporated flowers from our florist into the cake on site with no fuss! We had a "hidden pillar" design where spaces were left between the layers of cake for the flowers, and Ashley did this for a fraction of the cost that another bakery we went to would have charged. All of the flavors that we tried at our tasting were delicious, and we had TONS of compliments from guests about how our cake was not only beautiful, but also tasty! My husband and I can't wait to get our anniversary cake from Ashley!
