    Best desserts in the Triangle!

    My husband and I are big foodies, so we did a TON of research and taste testings for the perfect dessert vendor for our wedding. After tasting probably 10 different local bakeries, Edible Art was the very clear winner. Edible Art has really fun, customizable flavors, and unlike many of the bakeries we tried, their cakes/cupcakes were moist, and they weren’t overbearingly sweet. We chose the vanilla, triple chocolate, apple pie, and tiramisu cupcakes for our wedding as well as several mini apple pies, and even though we way over-ordered on desserts, we left our wedding with only 4 cupcakes left. Everyone loved the desserts and had great things to say. We definitely recommend Edible Art!

    So yummy and delicious!

    Mindy was fantastic to work with! She was very responsive and helped us select a range of desserts for our dessert bar. We also served a sheet cake to guests-the portions were generous and several guests said it was the best wedding cake they ever tasted. Guests were thrilled about the diverse selection of desserts, and they happily took home treats in the bakery boxes we made available.

    We used Edible Art for our wedding and we were thrilled with the result. We had a specific design in mind that involved custom molds, and they took it and knocked it out of the park. Also, it tasted great!

    Delicious cake and macaroons

    My only regret is not getting more macaroons! They were such a hit. I was able to get them made in our wedding colors to match everything. The cake was delicious. The bakery and my florist were able to work together to create a stunning cake. Did i mention how delicious it all was??

    What-A-Great Cake!

    Edible Art designed a groom's cake for my son's rehearsal dinner in Raleigh. Being a native Texan and frequent patron of the Whataburger restaurant chain, a cake of the iconic restaurant was a must. Edible Art absolutely nailed the cake given only a couple of pictures of the restaurant he frequented while attending Texas A&M University. They even made gluten free cupcakes for those with food allergies and topped them with replicas of the Whataburger "tents". The strawberry pound cake was mouthwatering. You can't go wrong using Edible Art to create your vision.

    Wedding Cake Dreams

    My new husband and I recently worked with Mindy and the Edible Art team to create our dream wedding cake. From the beginning, their team was so helpful in bringing our unique design to life. We chose Edible Art in part due to their convenient location to our reception venue and also due to their longstanding reputation in the area for wedding cakes. We chose a chocolate and vanilla marble cake with buttercream filling and fondant icing (due to the structure and design). While originally nervous about the fondant for a wedding cake, we were happily surprised at the freshness and flavor. All of our guests raved over how much they loved our cake!

    While we were given the option to save the top tier of our cake for our first anniversary, the bakery provides a fresh one for free to their wedding couples. We also love that we can stop into their storefront when we are in town to have a piece and reminisce on our big day whenever we'd like! We couldn't be happier with the service we received and cannot wait to order our next cake from Edible Art!

    Thomas Wedding

    Edible Art was wonderful for our wedding cake and cupcakes! They offer a free tasting. I loved that they let us do a small cake and a hundred of the smaller cupcakes. We did their fall flavors which were the pumpkin cheesecake, lemon blueberry, cookie monster, birthday cake, oatmeal cream pie, triple chocolate, and mexican hot chocolate. Everyone loved them and I would recommend them to anyone having a wedding.

    A Beautiful, Delicious Cake!

    What more could you want? They truly did make the vision come to life, and they steered us along and we were 100% happy customers! It was delicious and we had leftovers to enjoy later. Thank you to Erin, she took very good care of us!!

    Beautiful & Delicious Gluten-Free Wedding Cake!

    Edible Art just made a beautiful and delicious gluten-free cake for my daughter's wedding! It was an elegant round tiered cake on a beautiful silver riser! It was decorated with fresh flowers provided by our florist. Simply stunning! Thank you!

    Hands Down the Best Gluten Free Cupcakes for Our Wedding!

    This charming family owned and managed cupcakery is anything but modest in their skills, variety of flavors, level of customer service, value for the money, and of course TASTE! First, they don't charge you extra for gluten-free ingredients and since a lot of my family including myself are Celiac, I was so surprised by this! Second, they were so willing to try out new flavors I suggested just for our wedding and even in smaller quantities for the tasting--Mexican Vanilla Bean (packed a little spice), Strawberry Lime Margarita (complete with tequila) and my favorite Churro! Our guests tired them all and could even tell that were gluten free--that's the real test! Another cupcake place near me (SmallCakes) said that I would have pay 3x for gluten-free and pay for the testing--ridiculous! As a Celiac, I don't have many safe or tasty options when it comes to baked goods, but I can't express enough how grateful and surprised I was with Edible Art! Thanks Edible Art--PS. I highly recommend that you make Churro a staple on your menu!!!! YYUUUUMMM!!!

    Edible Art Bakery & Dessert Cafe's reply:

    Abigail,

    I'm so glad that everything came out perfect for your special day. We love being able to satisfy our customers when it comes to new ideas and helping with any food allergies. We greatly appreciate the review and we hope to work with you again soon. I definitely will be putting Churro and the other flavors on the menu soon since they turned out amazing.

    beautiful, delicious cake!!

    Edible Art was fantastic!! The staff were so wonderful to work with; they were quick to respond to emails and were very accommodating during a generous tasting meeting. When we were finalizing our flavors several months later, they even offered to prepare a personalized box of samples for us to pick up to help with our final decisions. We went with the lemon and almond pound cakes--highly recommend! Our wedding cake looked beautiful and tasted delicious. We're already looking forward to our anniversary cake!

    Sweet and Simple

    We only wanted a simple, single round cake that fit our theme. Edible Art worked really well with us to design the cake and pick the flavors. OMG, it was absolutely delicious, perfect texture, and everybody loved it.

    My Dream Cake

    Edible Art made the most amazing cake for my wedding. I am gluten free and my husband loves cookies and cream. They crafted a tasty gluten free cookies and cream cake that was so delicious! I already look forward to eating the top layer!! Additionally, they provided us with their red velvet cupcakes. A crowd favorite for sure. I would highly recommend this bakery to anyone. The cake tasting experience was also incredibly personal. Can’t thank them enough for creating my dream cake because I didn’t know if it could happen!

    Edible Art was great to work with! They made the whole process seamless, we ended up purchasing cupcakes and a 3-tier cake for our wedding. Both the cupcakes and cake were perfect! The guests raved about the cake flavor, we went with almond. I'd absolutely recommend Edible Art for wedding cakes and cupcakes!!

    We got married 25 years ago this May. Every single chef, venue, purveyor, that we asked for advice told us to get our cake from Edible Art. They were not mistaken! Although we had tastings at 5 other places, Edible Art was hands down the BEST. This was waaay back when they were still downtown, in a small store front across from Meredith College. We enjoyed our Wedding Cakes - we had several layers, one was almond with almond filling and white butter cream, and the 2 others were chocolate with raspberry filling and white buttercream. DELICIOUS! We went ahead and froze the top layer so that we could eat it on our first wedding anniversary. We didn't really expect much, given that it had been inside of a freezer for a year. What a surprise, it was every bit as delicious! That is why I just ordered a cake from them to celebrate our 25 years of marriage. SO glad that they are still in business and going strong! You can't go wrong with a quality product from a quality purveyor. Thank you, Edible Art!!

    Edible Art was so great! They came as a recommendation from our venue, and after checking several places out, we completely agree. Todd was so responsive to our emails, which was particularly important, as we live on separate coasts, so a lot of coordinating was done online. Luckily the bride was able to join me for our tasting here, and it allowed us to see many of their options. They predominantly do a denser pound-cake style, but also have a fluffier cupcake style available, which is what we ultimately opted for. In addition to our tasting menu, they had several of the cupcakes in the other flavors we were interested in that helped us make our decision.
    We ended up with a three tiered cake, with the top being blemonberry cake with lemon curd filling, the middle almond cake with amaretto filling, and the bottom chocolate with chocolate ganache filling with buttercream icing - we wanted it to be delicious and didn't care so much about the aesthetics that fondant could offer, and we could not be happier with our decision. They created a beautiful textured buttercream, and although I am still sad that the only bites of cake I managed were for the photo, guests have raved about how great it was, with one saying the almond amaretto was so good it will haunt her dreams!

    Planning a wedding in Raleigh while living in Houston is NOT an easy task but once we landed on Edible Art Bakery Desserts & Cafe website our journey instantly became smooth sailing. They worked so closely with us, answering countless questions.

    They were so attentive and responsive via email and were willing to do whatever we needed. The drop-off of the cake topper the day before the wedding was seamless. The delivery went off without a hitch and the cake was gorgeous. Oh, and did we mention, EVERYONE loved the look, design, flawlessness, and especially, the taste of this wonderful creation.

    There couldn't be a company out there more accommodating than Edible Art Bakery Desserts & Cafe. If you have any upcoming dessert needs then you don't need to look any further. Thank you so much to the staff at Edible Art Bakery Desserts & Cafe. Y'all received so many compliments from our wedding guests and I wanted to pass the kind words along. It was such a pleasure working with your company!!! Many thanks for helping make our wedding day so special.

    I can’t say enough about how helpful the staff at Edible Art was when I went in to order a groom cake. They were so patient, cheerful and determined to help me get the cake I had envisioned, within budget. They were so great helping to find ways to cut the cost of what was a pretty expensive cake, without sacrificing the artistic and sentimental elements that would make it unique! I would not hesitate to recommend Edible Art for any special cake needs; in fact, we also got my daughter’s wedding cake here a year ago and it was not only beautiful but incredibly delicious!

    We used Edible Art for all four of our wedding-related cakes - our engagement cake (red velvet), my bridal shower cake (strawberry), our groom's cake (chocolate), and our wedding cake (almond amaretto). All of the cakes were delicious and we received a lot of compliments on all four of the cakes. Todd (the owner) is great and ended up referring a lot of the vendors we decided to go with - we joked that he could've planned our whole wedding! Edible Art created a gorgeous surprise groom's cake for my fiance to my exact specifications and Todd and the whole Edible Art team were super responsive to emails and questions/requests throughout the year and a half of our engagement. We will always look to order Edible Art cakes for special celebrations in our future! Thank you so much Todd & Edible Art team!

    Edible Art provided the cake for our daughter's wedding this past weekend and it was absolutely wonderful. The cake was beautiful and so delicious. Several wedding guests made a point of commenting on the flavor and moistness of the cake and asked where we had gotten it. The Almond Amaretto is just one of the best cakes I've ever had.

    Edible Art was amazing! They listened to what I was thinking about as far as design goes and then they came up with something fabulous and funky! And the taste!!!! We got the vanilla pound cake with some layers of raspberry and some layers of lemon curd, with buttercream frosting. So good!! The guests were raving about it! Perfect service, perfect final product! Thank you!

    We loved the wedding cake we got from Edible Art! We wanted a simple and elegant cake that tasted amazing and that is exactly what we got. They were so fast to get back to us about design, flavor changes, and delivery logistics which was such a relief when we had so many other things going on during the planning process.

    Edible Art made us an absolutely gorgeous and delicious cake. My new sister in law even said it was the best wedding cake she'd ever tasted, including her own. The cake was one of my favorite parts of the wedding day!

    I also appreciate that Edible Art does not nickel and dime their customers. They do not charge for a tasting and they do not upcharge for every little addition to the cake. Their prices are very fair for the incredible products they produce.
