    She’s awesome! But she retired

    She was absolutely a gem! But she retired from her business. Wishing her lots of luck!

    The best and delicious

    Cakes by Kasarda was by far our favorite vendor for our wedding! We got our wedding cake, cannolis, chocolate covered strawberries cookies and she even added banana pudding bites that weren’t even on her menu. Everything was delicious and a huge hit.

    Outstanding Quality and Attention to Detail

    We were thrilled with our 'Chesapeake Bay Steamed Crab' themed groom's cake for our son's wedding. Tammy embraced our vision for a cake that would pay homage to the groom's hometown of Baltimore and our affinity for steamed crabs, Ravens football and good times with friends and family. The cake was a huge hit and I am so happy with how it all turned out. Tammy is amazing and a joy to work with. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone.

    Sweet Perfection!

    From our initial tasting, I knew Cakes by Kasarda would be a sweet addition to our special wedding day!!

    All of her cake and icing flavors were absolutely delicious! There is truly a flavor for everyone! We chose your classic vanilla and chocolate for the base tier and the sweet potato for the top tier. The sweet potato and honey cinnamon filling was AMAZING!

    Tammy is a pleasure to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable and talented. Her years of talent and cake skills are out of this world. You will not be disappointed.

    I highly recommend Cakes by Kasarda for your wedding and special event needs! Yum!!

    Both Tammy and the Cake Were Amazing!

    My daughter and her fiance were so impressed with Tammy and her cake! As a cake lover, I had been looking forward to 2 or 3 cake tastings, but Tammy was our first and last. She had a number of flavors for us to taste and it was very obvious that she had her stuff together.

    Before we got off her porch, Jess and Grant had decided they wanted Tammy to bake their cake. Jessica gave Tammy a picture of a cake she liked, and was as excited about the cake as she was her dress!

    On the wedding day, Tammy came through with a gorgeous and delicious wedding cake. We cannot say enough great things about her (and her cake, of course!)

    Wedding cake

    I ordered a small cutting cake for our wedding and the cake turned out beautifully! It was a simple design, but looked so elegant. My husband and family and I tasted the cake and absolutely loved the flavor! It was a hit! Thank you Cakes by Kasarda for the wonderful wedding cake!

    A Plate Full of Cake? Yes, Please!!

    My wife and I ordered two cakes from Cakes by Kasarda due for pickup at their bake shop within three days of each other. One of them was my birthday carrot cake and the other one was a Canada Day red and white velvet cake with an edible flag inside the cake. The presentation of both cakes were exquisite. Both of these cakes were the most scrumptious, creamy, and oh so appetizing desserts that we have had this year. Kudos to the pastry chef/owner, Tammy! You did an outstanding job! Last but most importantly not least during this COVID-19 Global Pandemic, Cakes by Kasarda follows CDC guidelines, i.e., wearing a face mask, practicing social distancing, and using hand sanitizer, regardless if it is a delivery or pickup.

    Delicious cakes

    Tammy was perfect! She did the groomsmen cake for our rehearsal and also our wedding cake. Everyone loved the cakes- fresh and delicious. Our vision was executed exactly to perfection and couldn’t have asked for anything more

    Cakes by Kasarda did an amazing job with my wedding cake! It was exactly what I asked for and was decorated beautifully. Tammy was professional, nice and did a beautiful job. Not only was my cake beautiful but it tasted great! I can't wait to eat my top layer on my one year anniversary. I highly recommend Cakes by Kasarda.

    My wedding cake wasn't a top priority to me. I was actually just going to get a cake from publix, but that would cost me a lot for poor quality. Therefore, the cake tasting began. I tried a lot of cakes in a 2 day period. Cakes by Kasarda was by far the best tasting cake and the best price. Another very reputable baker was twice as much with cakes that did not taste even close to as good as her's. Seriously, I didn't even think she was going to be as good as she was. She was amazing. Great design and great taste for an unbelievable great price

    My experience with Tammy was awesome! I was scheduled to put my deposit down with another bakery, but when my wedding planner who goes by the name of Tanis at Tanis J Events told me to hold off and get a tasting with Cakes by Kasarda I would find that I would get the same quality for a reasonable price. Thank goodness I did that! Tammy made cupcakes for my ten year vow renewal and boy all my guest were raving about them during and after our event. We served four different flavors at our wedding all of them were srumptious. My favorite though was her carrot cake. I never was a big fan about carrot cake but Tammy won me and my hubby over with her's. Cakes by Kasarda is the place to go.

    You SHOULD hire Tammy to handle all your baking needs. In fact, she is forever my go to person because her work is just that amazing and tastes delicious. Tammy made my wedding cake for 250 guests and she also made my groom's cake. We chose vanilla, strawberry and chocolate flavors with the Italian Butter cream icing. My guests are still talking about the cake. Not to mention, my pics of the cake are spectacular. Tammy's professionalism and flexibility is one to be applauded. She baked and delivered my cakes on-time and as planned. She works well under pressure and is more than worth the money.

    Beautiful cake AND it tastes amazing! My mom and I went cake testing because my fiance (now husband :) does not really like cake. We also had brownie cupcakes with nuts in honor of him because he loves those. Anyway, after we left the reception, we were talking about all the details. I found out that he had eaten TWO pieces of the cake. I was shocked. He said, "That cake tasted SO good, and I heard other people talking about it too." That was the true test of "GREATNESS" for a cake that passed him as well. She was also quite easy to work with and gave great suggestions. Here is what I ordered. White cake, chocolate chip cannoli filling with cream cheese icing... AMAZING. I also ordered cupcakes...chocolate with peanut butter icing, chocolate with European butter cream, carrot with cream cheese.

    I've read on many sites that when it comes to wedding cakes you have to choose whether or not you want your cake to taste good or to look good. I didn't have to make that choice. Our cake was both beautiful and delicious. From the initial consultation and tasting through our wedding night I have enjoyed working with Tammy. She was always courteous and professional. She took the task of cake decision-making and made it fun for us instead of a chore. Her enthusiasm was utterly contagious and inspired us to have a fun, unique, memorable cake that all of our guests raved about. They couldn't limit themselves to just one piece ... and I've heard from so many others that wedding cake doesn't taste good. Try telling that to my guests! I couldn't have asked for more. For the product and service we received, it was well worth every penny. Tammy made the entire process fun and stress-free. Having her expertise on hand as one of my vendors helped our wedding to go off without a hitch. It was perfect and Tammy is one of the big reasons why. I had an impeccable experience and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a cake for any occasion.

    Gifted hands…truly delicious.

    It’s been some time (2018)…Cakes by Kasarda (Owner: Tammy Pilch) did an amazing job for our wedding. A beautifully crafted and perfected red velvet, layered with her own blend of raspberry jam and topped with a decadent layer of REAL cream cheese. Our cake was draped in silk. Our wedding cakes was elegant, delicious, and moist. We’ve celebrated anniversaries with a smaller version and birthdays with cupcakes. Tammy was a delight to work with and chat with. I hate that the business is now closed/retired. She was truly the best to work with…friendly and professional with gifted hands and a wonderful craft. Love the Teachey’s!

    Most delicious cake EVER

    Wow! We had some cake connoisseurs at our wedding and they unanimously agreed that this was the BEST cake they have ever tasted. I usually despise red velvet cake, but somehow I ended up falling in love with the red velvet cake with a cookies and cream filling. Just typing this review is making my mouth water. If you want the most beautiful and tasty cake in the world, you've found the right baker!

    Wonderful Wonderful!!!

    Tammy’s cake and cupcakes were the “Icing on the top” of a most wonderful day! This was a destination wedding for our daughter who lives in Austin, so my husband and I were privileged to get to meet Tammy and do the tasting of cakes fillings and frostings. What a great way to spend a Saturday morning! We could not decide on three cupcake flavors, so we added a fourth. Since none of our family lives in. Charleston, we were pleased how responsive Tammy was by e-mail.
    The wedding was 2 days ago. Everything was more beautiful and every bit as delicious as we expected. My only regret was not being to hug Tammy and thank her in person!

    The best cake!!

    I would highly recommend Cakes by Kasarda. Tammy so easy to work with and she perfectly executed our dream wedding cake! Not to mention that the flavors were delicious and more robust/complex compared to some of the other bakeries we tried. If you’re in the market for a wedding or specialty cake, look no further!

    Beautiful 50th Anniversary Cake!

    I worked with Tammy to create a cake for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. It was exactly what I had envisioned - it was beautiful and delicious. The cake fed my entire extended family for an entire week and was very reasonably priced. Tammy was very responsive and delivered the cake to us on time. She is very professional. I would definitely use her again for future events.

    Our dream wedding cake

    Tammy was absolutely wonderful to work with and baked/designed a delicious and beautiful wedding cake for us. From our initial inquiry, to tasting, to the wedding everything went smoothly and Tammy made the process extremely easy, especially considering we were planning our destination wedding from Florida. Tammy was able to do 2 layers of strawberry cake and a layer of lemon (because both were so delicious we couldn't decide) and the design was exactly what we wanted based off one single photo we showed her. Bravo!

    Best wedding cake ever!

    Tammy did such an amazing job with our wedding cake. She was so easy to talk to and really brought my vision to life. I also had her help me with a surprise groom cake and it looked amazing! Everyone at the rehearsal dinner and wedding talked about how amazing the cakes tasted. I’m usually not fond of wedding cakes but this cake was so delicious! Tammy was also sweet enough to bring me cupcakes as a sweet addition to our wedding cake when she thought she had forgot to add in red velvet for the grooms cake layer. I would highly recommend her! Best cakes ever!
