One word: delicious

Confectionate Cakes did our wedding cake and the cake slices flew off the table! We had so many guests asking if there were more! Thank you Confectionate Cakes!

Laura is the best!

Laura is an incredible baker and made selecting our cake one of the easiest experiences of planning our wedding. She was able to quickly guide us from unspecific desires to a concrete plan. We also didn’t require any convincing that the cake was delicious. One taste had us both agreeing this was the best cake we had ever had. Her services were also beyond reasonably priced, making this selection a slam dunk and an incredibly easy recommendation.

Amazing!! Laura is the best!

My family has known Laura for as long as I can remember. We have had her cakes at every important function and she always nails it! Her cakes are seriously delicious and always beautiful. We loved our wedding cake and continue to get compliments on it! Thank you Laura!

Recommend to me!

Being that I am a pastry chef and was forbidden to my own wedding cake i had to find someone who do my wedding cake with perfection. I firmly believe that we have. She kind, and accommodating. Within the first appointment we knew what we wanted our cake to look like. We also knew by the end of that appointment that she was the perfect one for the job!

Delicious, fun, awesome cake!

Planning my beach wedding remotely was a handful, but Laura at Confectionate Cakes made the wedding cake planning completely stress free! She happily accommodated all of our flavor requests, took care of the custom cake topper that I had shipped directly to her, and decorated the cake in a fun yet elegant beachfront theme. It was perfect! And the taste! Everyone raved about the cake. It was completely gone by the end of the night. Laura's buttercream icing is hands down the best! Pick Laura for your cake needs, and you won't be disappointed!!

Piece of Cake!

Laura was helpful, flexible, and super fair with her pricing. She took the time to meet with me for an initial consultation and then was so kind as to bring the cake samples to my work so I could easily take them home for me and my fiance to try. This cake is truly the best I have ever tasted, my husband and I ate a little bit every night of one of the leftover layers. Seriously so rich and decadent. We can't wait to dive into our anniversary layer. Great experience, would recommend Laura to any brides I know!

Beautiful... TASTY cakes!!

My husband and I chose Laura to make our cake early on in our wedding planning. She really did take the description in my head and create my dream wedding cake! When I saw it for the first time in my reception, I was in awe! My guests couldn't stop complimenting the beauty... and the TASTE!!!

My wife and I came to Laura in a time of desperation! After searching for months and going to what seemed like a million cake tastings we had settled on someone who was booked and paid for. Without warning, our CONTRACTED cake person closed her cake business and we were back to square one. When we met Laura she assured us she could get our cake and cupcakes done in time, with the design we wanted and the almond flavor we had already had our hearts set on. She even offered to set up our cake table with the tulle and lights I had already purchased at NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE!!!! Her demeanor was pleasant her cake and cupcakes were delicious, and she was such a joy to work with! We loved our cake so much that we removed our top layer from the freezer just a week later and ate it (so much for waiting until our 1 year anniversary).

Confectionate Cakes are the best!! Laura made my wedding cake with the fresh strawberries. All I can say is “It was Awesome”. My guests absolutely loved it!! She was on time to set up my cake and the table looked beautiful. If you need a specialty cake and want it to taste and look good, get a cake from Confectional Cakes and you won’t go wrong! Thanks Laura!!

We had the pleasure of having Laura make our cake for our wedding. We told her exactly what we wanted, and she customized everything to our liking. We had three different flavors. Every layer tasted terrific and moist! We would recommend Confectionate Cakes to anyone in a heartbeat! Thanks again for everything, Laura!

Our wedding cake was absolutely delicious. Every person at the wedding raved about how good the cake was- people said it was the best they have ever had at a wedding. It was so moist and Laura is able to make you any flavors and combinations you can possibly imagine. Laura was also so helpful during the planning process - giving us anything we needed to help us during our tastings or when we changed our minds multiple times. The prices were also VERY reasonable.

Laura's cakes are beyond delicious! Her cakes have that homemade taste we were looking for with the professional designs you'd expect from a place that has a whole team of people working on it. Our venue got warmer than it should have, but our cupcake tower and top cake withstood the heat and still tasted amazing!! Working with her was fun and easy and we would absolutely call her again for future cake needs!

OMG! Not one thing would I change about our wedding cake! Laura was exactly what I was looking for - a professional with ideas and suggestions. We taste-tested and consulted with 4 other different vendors - they all had good tasting cake, liked my ideas and said "sure, we can do anything you want" or "sure, we can make it that way". Laura was the 5th vendor (best for last unbeknownst to me!) - she took my ideas, turned them on their head and came up with the vision I had really wanted but couldn't put into words! And, she was the only one that actually took out colored pencils and paper and drew the cake of my dreams!!! I knew right then, she was the one. Now, on top of that, she had THE MOST DELICIOUS CAKE of any we tried. I mean moist and full of flavor and fresh ingredients. We had a 3 tier cake - each one different & personal to our likes - bottom was a dark chocolate cake with a mocha buttercream filling, middle was a strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream (both with fresh strawberries throughout), and top was a vanilla bean cake with lemon curd and lemon buttercream. I'll say it again - OMG!

Laura was super easy to work with and makes a delicious cake! All we had to do was describe what we were looking for in a design and she had a color drawing completed in minutes! We had to add on 25 extra people about 2 weeks before the wedding and that was not a problem either! Thanks Laura!

Absolutely the BEST cake in the triangle! From our first meeting, we knew we just had to have Confectionate Cakes! Extremely easy to work with, amazing flavors, and they know what they are doing! No tasting fee, and we were able to try different combinations of flavors to get the exact flavors we wanted for our cake! We had an idea of what we wanted our cake to look like, and Laura brought it to life! The cake looked amazing and even tasted amazing! There were no slices left! People still tell us that it was the best cake they've ever had at a wedding. We can't wait to get more cakes from her for anniversaries and birthdays! Book Confectionate Cakes. You won't be disappointed!

Book Confectionate cakes!! First, the cake tasting was so fun and delicious. It really was so easy to pair our favorite flavors together! Next, designing the cake was so easy and it was everything I wanted!! They were so flexible with every part of the process and we are so happy with our decision! A lot of cake vendors made you pay for the cake tasting and they gave you either too many options or not enough that it was very difficult to make a decision. With Confectionate Cakes, this was not the case. They also were very accommodating to my budget and made sure to give me options with the design to best suit my dream plus what my budget would allow. I really wanted a small cake even though I would need a big one to feed all the guests. Most bakeries quoted just a bigger cake and would not accommodate the design I wanted. Confectionate Cakes had sheet cake made in the back for the majority of the guests so that I could have the cake I wanted. There are so many more examples of how wonderful they were - but hopefully you get the point! Lastly, all of the guests ranted about how good the cake was: white velvet cake, fresh strawberries, and white chocolate buttercream, and said they never actually enjoy wedding cake and they LOVED ours!

After contacting numerous bakeries in the Chapel Hill / Raleigh area, our phone conversation with Laura (owner of Confectionare Cakes) instantly made us feel she was the one we wanted to work with. Her cakes are amazing! Very moist, and the layer filling options we selected drew rave reviews from our guests. Her 'Biscoff Cookie Cream' filling in particular was a favorite of ours'. Laura was very easy to work with. At the last minute we realized our guest count was going to be around 50 more than we had expected. Laura handled this change with ease. Laura also made an incredible grooms' cake - very detailed 3 dimensional cake which included a replica of the "Old Well" on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus, along with a depiction of a particular fraternity house and the UNC logo. We very highly recommend Laura with Confectionare Cakes. Working with her was an exceptional experience.

Laura makes wonderful cakes! Not only are the delicious, they're beautiful as well. Her prices are reasonable, and her cakes are really top notch. She's willing to work with you and make sure that your cake is exactly how you imagined! She's also very good at giving ideas for cakes, especially if you're a bride like me who has no idea what you want. People are still talking about how great the cake was- we were so pleased with how everything turned out!

Laura makes the best cakes. She is really easy to get a hold of. I do think word is starting to get out on the street though because people are booking her over a year in advance. If you want an awesome cake both in taste and looks get the cake from Confectionate Cakes.

Laura's cupcakes were delicious! We wanted a simple cake with a little bling and cupcakes for our wedding. Laura nailed it. From the tasting where she presented us with several delicious flavors to choose from to the final product, everything was great.

Finding Laura was such a blessing! We had tried so many cakes and felt that many of them were dry or just not good enough for our wedding day. We set up a tasting with Laura and were blown away! Everything we tried, we loved and we ended up having one cake flavor throughout our 3 tier cake, but two different kinds of fillings because we could not decide on just one! We brought picture of what we liked and Laura sketched a cake and tweeked it until it was exactly what we wanted! On the day of our wedding, it was beautiful and tasty! We could not have asked for more!

Laura made us the best cake I've ever tasted at a very reasonable price--in fact, the best price AND the best cake we found during our various cake tastings. We did 3 flavors: fresh strawberry, praline and cream cheese, and vanilla/nutella. She also made a saree out of frosting to go vertically around the cake, since we had an Indian wedding. It was beautiful and matched my own outfit's colors. You cannot be disappointed with this cake--all of our guests said the same! Thank you Laura!

OMG. One of the best wedding cakes I have ever tasted. We used Confectionate Cakes for my daughter's recent wedding in Raleigh. Laura did an amazing job. The florist left fresh flowers at the venue for her to place on the cake. It looked beautiful. And her recommendation of a cake stand was a perfect match to the decor.
Cake flavors: choc kahlua, butter vanilla, and carrot
Frosting: vanilla buttercream and cream cheese

Laura was so great! She took our small-wedding needs into account and gave us a great deal. Our cake was beautiful and tasted amazing! I chose her in the first place because her cakes were the best tasting at the entire wedding show.

We just returned from our cake tasting and selection. Laura made this process a "piece of cake for us". We gave her a picture of what we wanted and she kept it right on our price point and added the baby's breath cake topper for us. Laura seems to be down to earth and is a like-able person. We are very much looking forward to our end product and believe from our experience that it will be what we have envisioned. Thank you Laura!

So happy with my wedding and groom's cake. They not only looked beautiful but also tasted great! Laura was so easy to work with and nailed my vision for both cakes. I found her at the Forever Bridal Wedding Show, and her cake was by far the best I tasted that day. I can't wait to get our 1 year anniversary cake!

After going to several weddings and eating bad cake, I knew I wanted to find someone who could bake delicious taste at an affordable price. Also, my fiance and I wanted a small cake for ourselves to cut, and cupcakes for everyone else. We wanted everyone to enjoy a piece of cake, and to have the same size . After visiting other bakers and tasting other cakes, selecting Confectionate Cakes was an easy choice.

Laura always quickly responded to my emails, and was accommodating to my availability since I live out of state. When tasting the cakes, the buttercream frosting with vanilla, chocolate, and carrot flavors were what we decided on having for the wedding. The cupcakes at the wedding were a big hit-- everyone loved them! By far the most moist and flavorful cakes we've had in a very long time.

We recently used Confectionate Cakes for our wedding and it was delicious! We had a small cake with different flavored cup cakes. We went in and were able to try the different flavors we were thinking and they were all great. We went with carrot cake, vanilla and chocolate. When we went to our tasting I forgot to let Laura know that my mom and dad would be with us, but she quickly grabbed more cupcakes and plates for them upon arrival. Everything was great and our cake and cupcakes were beautiful and very, very reasonably priced. We loved everything!

We are so thrilled we decided to go with Confectionate Cakes to bake our wedding cake. Laura was a delight to work with and very responsive to all my emails. During our tasting she even surprised us with a few new flavors she had come up with, one of them being lemon blueberry (which we ended up going with for two of our cake layers). We went into our tasting with a few ideas of what we wanted our cake to look like and Laura worked with us to bring our vision to life. Our cake looked absolutely stunning and it tasted amazing as well! My husband and I even went back for seconds after the reception was over!

There is definitely a reason Laura and Confectionate Cakes are so highly rated! Now, we know first hand. We met with Laura and immediately knew that she was the one. She took our cake ideas and vision, and she really delivered! Their flavors are delicious, and our cake came out absolutely perfect. We highly recommend!

Everything from the cake tasting, to the delivery was perfect. Oh and let's not forget the cake was the best I've ever had. No dried out cake, and gruesome frostings here. I would highly reccomend Confectionate Cakes, if you want you wedding guests to walk away feeling like they were served something special!! And I'm picky.

Laura's cakes are amazing! She is a fantastic baker as well as a talented artist. She made an awesome lego grooms cake for our rehearsal dinner and a gorgeous wedding cake the next day. The details were perfect and I couldn't have been happier. The cakes were fresh and delicious! Our venue packed up some of the cake for us when we left and my husband and I ate it two days later on the plane on our way to our honeymoon. It was so good even after 2 days and it made for a fun memory to start off the honeymoon. If I ever need a cake for an event in the future, she will be the first person I call!

We fell in love with her cupcakes at a Bridal Expo prior to the wedding and just knew she was the one to make our Wedding Cake. She did not disappoint. Laura was an absolute dream to work with! Easy to get in touch with, always available if we had any questions, and she was extremely flexible with us. Our Wedding cake turned out beautiful, everything that we wanted plus it was amazingly delicious!! We've received so many compliments. I would definitely recommend Laura to anyone!

Laura's cakes are wonderful! Dave wants to add that it was yummy! It was also very beautiful with fresh flowers and our monogram. I loved what Laura did with it. We had a spice cake layer on the bottom, a almond and raspberry mouse in the middle and orange on the top. We wanted something a little different. It was fabulous!

We went to 4 different cake tastings and Confectionate Cakes was by far the best! We loved how Laura ran her tasting. We chose a few different cake, filling, and frosting favors and got to combine them ourselves. The setup allowed us to be creative and pick just the right combination. Not only was Laura professional, her prices were much better than all of the other bakery's we considered. We loved the look and the taste of our rehearsal dinner cake as well as our wedding cake. We defiantly plan on using Confectionate Cakes for any and all future cake needs!

I can not say enough about Confectionate Cakes! I got married in 2010 and my entire wedding cake was gone in 10 minutes flat. I still have people mention how wonderful the cake was. My cake was the most beautiful cake I’d ever seen. It was exactly what I had envisioned. With such a gorgeous cake I thought there was no way it could take so delicious. I was wrong. Now 4 years later, I order a cake for all my special occasions. My entire family orders cakes from Confectionate Cakes for everything. We love the flavors!

When I went to the bridal show Confectionate Cakes was the only one I actually liked out of all tw samples. I love to bake and am a picky dessert person. Not only are the cakes beautiful, but they taste AMAZING! Confectionate cakes provided my rehearsal dinner and wedding cakes. I Thought I would have a ton of leftovers, but I came back from the honeymoon to just a few slices left....it was such a hit! It was a pleasure working with Laura and I would use her again for any event in the future. Highly recommended!

I am still floating on cloud nine over Laura's wonderful job for both the groom's and wedding cake. She iced a very detailed comic strip on the groom's cake and, just as I had anticipated, my husband LOVED it and cried. It was so perfect! The wedding cake tasted amazing and we received many, many compliments on the unique and seasonally appropriate flavor of toffee with apple filling, which tasted like a homemade cake. I cannot be happier with my experience with Laura, not to mention she is the most reasonably priced and flexible baker I found in the Triangle!

When we takes Confectionate Cakes at the bridal show we were amazed at the taste of her cakes. They exceeded all of the other vendors we had tasted that day. We decided to not go with the traditional wedding cake design and went with a cake bar of 8 regular 9 inch cakes of different flavors and one small traditional shaped caked. It came out beautiful and our guests couldn't stop talking about the cakes. I had some guests say they were the best cakes they had ever tasted. I was so pleased with them and they were a beautiful addition to our day.

I don't even know where to start on how absolutely delicious the wedding cake and cupcakes were....

We had two small layers and 200 cupcakes...people are still talking about how wonderful they tasted.

We tasted ALL the cakes at the bridal fair in January 2013 and no one even was close to the good taste of their cupcakes. This was the only vendor we considered for a wedding cake and cupcakes. Laura was wonderful to work with, easy to contact, flexible and most importantly the cake and cupcakes tasted FABULOUS!!!

Laura, Confectionate Cakes, made our daughter's wedding cake and it was simply gorgeous and so delicious! She took lots of time and really listened to what my daughter had in mind and offered great suggestions. Laura has a knack for arranging flowers on the cake, as well. After meeting with her, we wrote a check on the spot and never worried about a thing: we knew she would provide a tasty, attractive cake, delivered on time. Would definitely use her again!

I have worked with Laura for 15 years, and can say that she makes the best cake in town. Always delivers on time, always ready to try new ideas. I have tried every cake in town and hers is the best! Her desserts are awesome too! Can't say enough about service and quality of product... oh... and at a great price point! Value all the way around!

Of all of the wedding details, my guests and family raved most about the cakes!

We used Confectionate Cakes for both the grooms cake (at the rehearsal dinner) and wedding cake and I couldn't have been more delighted with the look and taste of both.

When we originally consulted with Laura, she patiently guided us through the tasting and design process; she took the photos and descriptions I had given her to describe my dream cake, and for the wedding she created it just like I had hoped and envisioned!

The groomscake was arranged over email with links and more pictures... and it too, well, took the cake.

My one slight peave is sometimes there was a slow response time with emails for setting up the tasting and later arranging the delivery details of the cake, which had had me a little worried, BUT both cakes were delivered on time, stress-free with no drama on the day of, which is no small thing in the midst of a million other stressful details that day! And they were both beautiful and delicious!

Beautiful Wedding Cake

Laura is a wonderful baker! Our wedding cake was stunning and she even made us a specialized groom's cake. Everyone complimented both and we were so happy with our flavor choices! Laura was easy to work with and brought our vision to life. I will definitely be going back to Confectionate Cakes for future cakes!

Delicious and Beautiful!

Laura was so easy to work with!! We scheduled our tasting, and had such a great time trying out all the flavors we wanted. I booked her instantly! She answered all my questions with confidence and reassurance, that made me so happy to choose her as our cake vendor. I needed trust from all my vendors, and that is what we got with Laura! She was easy going, cake was delicious, and we got what we wanted!!

My husband and I are so glad we went with Confectionate Cakes for our wedding! Our two tiers were completely different flavors and both were a hit! Our bottom tier was a golden rum cake and the top was a lemon blueberry cake with strawberry filling. Absolutely scrumptious! Laura met with us a couple of times as we went back and forth on some of the flavors and even worked with our budget as we were having a very small wedding, but wanted everyone to be able to take some home with them. The only complaint I have is that we were under the understanding that she would cut and serve the cake for us after she delivered it, but maybe that was a misunderstanding in our part. Either way, that in no way ruined our experience and we would gladly work with her again!

My cake was probably the most delicious dessert I've ever had in my life! I had so many of my friends and family come up to me and tell me how good the cake was that I lost track of the number.

We had vanilla butter cream icing and chose two cake flavors: Chocolate Kahlua & White Velvet. PERFECT together. The chocolate was the favorite of our guests by a lot, but the vanilla was not spurned,either. The entire cake was rich and moist and flavorful, and the icing literally melted in your mouth. Not only that, but it keeps well -- my husband and I decided not to freeze it (since he will be deployed overseas during our one-year anniversary) so we just kept the top layer in our fridge after the wedding, and it was STILL amazing 3 weeks later.

The design part of it was perfect, too. I worked with Laura McMillan, and she was able to make the cake of my dreams. She incorporated everything I asked her to, getting the right colors and designs just as I had imagined in my mind. It all came together beautifully. I couldn't have imagined hiring a better cake baker.

As for the logistical details, the prices offered are very reasonable. I found some other cake bakers who offered lower prices, but their cakes and designs were just not as great as Confectionate Cakes'. Laura was so accommodating; she even came to my wedding after it was over to pick up the cake stand I had rented from them because none of my friends or family live in Raleigh or would have been able to return it in time.

I knew exactly what I wanted for a wedding cake and went to Confectionate Cakes with that picture in mind. Laura saw our picture and said that she would be able to do that within our budget and I was so excited. We got two cake flavors: Amaretto with a chambord berry filling and German Chocolate with Bavarian Cream. The amaretto cake was the absolute best cake that I have ever had in my entire life. I could eat only this cake for the rest of my life and be so content. She was also able to do our cake entirely in buttercream which was a relief because I don't really like the taste of fondant. The picture of the cake that we wanted had a gum paste flower that went down the entire side of the cake. Our wedding cake was absolutely gorgeous and I loved it but the flower was about half the size of the flower in the picture.

Our cake was lovely to look at, exactly what we wanted. Professional in helping us decide just want we wanted. I found the cake to not serve as many as we anticipated and paid for, it must be that she anticipates much smaller slices than our venue cut, we paid for 100 servings, maybe had 65. I found the chocolate layer tasty, the other layers were very dry, not very tasty. I was a bit disappointed, but it was beautiful to look at.

DISASTER!!!!!!!!! Was so disappointed & upset on my wedding day. There was no cake! Tried calling Laura on my wedding day it took several calls before she answered the phone. When my husband finally reached her & asked about where's the cake,her response was that's today? I don't understand how you can forget a contracted date when I spoke to Laura two weeks before my wedding to confirm everything. Bottom line I recieved a BUSTED UP CAKE and a check for my money back on my wedding day!
