Above & Beyond
Working with Courtney was a dream. She understood our vision and executed it perfectly. All of our guests were raving about the flavors. She was willing to make a custom flavor for the tasting and even presented it with two filling options. She is as sweet as her desserts!Working with Courtney was a dream.

Simply the Best
In my exhaustive search to find the best wedding cupcakes across Chicagoland up the I94 corridor to Kalamazoo, Michigan- I was about ready to give up and stumbled across C'est La Vie Cakes. After my first bite during the tasting - I knew that my search had come to an end! Courtney does an AMAZING job. We ordered 4 different flavors of cupcakes and a small round cake for cutting purposes and everything was delicious. Courtney goes above and beyond to make sure this process is delicious and easy. C'est La Vie will be my go to for any dessert needs moving forward. Thank you, Courtney for being a part of making my wedding so special.In my exhaustive search to find the best wedding cupcakes across Chicagoland up the I94 corridor to Kalamazoo, Michigan- I was about ready to give up and stumbled across C'est La Vie Cakes.

The best wedding cake!
Couldn't reccomend C'est La Vie Cakes enough for wedding cakes! Our whole experience with Courtney was great. We got to try many flavors at the tasting and Courtney took notes on which were our favorites. Then we made our final decision a month or two before our weddiing. The cake was not only stunning, but it was sooo delicious! I'm not usually a huge cake person and I ate three pieces that night LOL.

Thank you, C’est La Vie!
Courtney was amazing! My original cake baker told me they wouldn’t be able to bake our wedding cake due to illness less than a month before our wedding. I was frantic trying to find a new cake baker. Courtney put me at ease when I called her. She was so sweet and easy to work with. Our wedding was in Kalamazoo, Michigan and she offered to drive from South Bend to deliver it to us. Our cake was gorgeous and tasted great! My husband and I were so busy at our wedding we didn’t have a chance to have a piece, so we decided to break into the top tier when we got back from our honeymoon. We plan on getting a fresh small cake to celebrate our first anniversary.Courtney was amazing!

Amazing cake, so many people asked where it was from!
I got married at Hidden Vineyard, as I didn't live in the area I looked at many different vendors and C'est La Vie Cakes was the best rated cakes by far!!! Courtney also provides a free tasting, so when we came out in the area we reached out to her and she booked us an appointment. Her cakes/cupcakes were AMAZING! She did a great job at communicating with us and we decided to have it delivered to our venue as its one less stress. I would recommend her to anyone getting married in the area!! We also had people texting us after the wedding wondering where we got the cake from.

Beautiful AND Delicious!
We first tasted C'est La Vie cakes at a wedding vendor expo, and I remember thinking at the time this would be the cake to beat because it was SO good. Well, we never found one that could so we gladly picked them for our wedding!
One of the things i loved was their unique flavor choices. My favorite is the champagne raspberry with buttercream frosting, but pink velvet strawberry was a close second. Both the husband and wife we worked with were very friendly and personable. They even decorated our cake with eucalyptus upon delivery which was a great surprise, as we didn't request this in the purchase.
I can't wait to go back for cupcake versions of our wedding cake to celebrate our anniversary!We first tasted C'est La Vie cakes at a wedding vendor expo, and I remember thinking at the time this would be the cake to beat because it was SO good.

So happy we chose C'est La Vie
Courtney at C'est La Vie was amazing! Cake tasting was one of our favorite parts of wedding planning. We got to try so many fun and different flavors. Courtney was incredibly kind, easy to work with, and made us a beautiful cake for our big day. The cake was so delicious we adjusted the tradition of eating the top tier on our 1 year anniversary and decided to dig in when we returned from our honeymoon! We could not recommend more.Courtney at C'est La Vie was amazing! Cake tasting was one of our favorite parts of wedding planning. We got to try so many fun and different flavors.

Courtney was truly wonderful from start to finish! Our cake and cupcakes looked and tasted amazing! She also did an awesome job when tasked with a special cake decoration (some superhero decorations on the back)! Nothing but the best!Courtney was truly wonderful from start to finish!

I am so happy that we chose Courtney for our cake. The process was so easy and simple. We just told her want we wanted and she delivered! The cake combined with the fresh flowers was absolutely incredible. We selected the tuxedo cake for all of the layers and the guests said it was hands down the best wedding cake they have ever had! And it was!!! Thank you for making our wedding cake, seeing it for the first time at the receptions will always be one of my favorite memories!I am so happy that we chose Courtney for our cake.

Courtney is fun and extremely professional. Her cakes are delicious and beautiful. I was blown away by how personal she was able to make our cake for us. The cupcakes that she made as well were everything I had hoped for and the decorations were stunning. My husband and I are not big cake people, but we thought it was the best cake ever! Even when I asked to make some changes it was never an issue, she was courteous and accomodating. Courtney provides lots of flavor options and the tasting was personal and professional as well. I will definitely be purchasing more cakes in the future from her... Courtney does other events like birthdays, showers, and graduations as well. I can say without a doubt the cake was perfect!Courtney is fun and extremely professional. Her cakes are delicious and beautiful.

Courtney is the sweetest person! She is so easy to work with, and she caters everything to your needs. Oh and did I mention that her cake is DELICIOUS!!!!!! I went with the new trend of cupcakes, and a small cake for my husband and I, but regardless the cake was amazing! She is so reasonably priced, especially if you want cupcakes! She also has a variety of flavors, so don't hesitate to ask for whatever flavors and combinations you want! She also is a fantastic decorator! I saw many of her designs for cake when my husband and I went to her house to do cake testing. I 100% recommend her! Everyone should use her, as her cake is fantastic, she is super sweet, and she is affordable!Courtney is the sweetest person! She is so easy to work with, and she caters everything to your needs.

Courtney was fantastic to work with! Her cakes are so delicious that it was difficult choosing a flavor for our wedding cake (The groom's cake was a no brainer since he demanded chocolate and chocolate). My groom and I wanted a non-traditional cake, and Courtney really worked with us to understand our vision. She executed it to perfection.
