    Stellar Wedding Cake Flavor!

    We had a small wedding and a small two tier cake-- German chocolate with traditional filling in the center and mocha in the other two layers and Carrot cake with salted caramel filling. This cake was fantastic and as hard as it is to pick a favorite, we LOVED the salted caramel with the carrot cake. I can't express how delicious Jenica's creation was and how much we appreciated her communication and scrumptious work.

    We were a destination wedding so all of our communication with Jenica was virtual and we were always pleased with her response time and level of communication. We knew we were in good hands and everything went off seamlessly.

    We would highly recommend her business and are only sad we can't eat more of her cake anytime soon!

    Fancy Pants Cakes's reply:

    Thank you, Liz! I am so pleased you chose two flavor combinations and enjoyed them both. I know it's a little nerve-wracking to plan a wedding from a distance, and I'm glad it all worked out for you.

    Talented baker and kind!

    I highly recommend Jenica’s work. She is professional, responsive, thoughtful, and kind! It helps that her cakes are also delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed the process of trying her samples (she made mini cupcakes of the different cake flavors with different frosting options). We chose a combination that was not overly sweet with complexity (brown sugar vanilla with vanilla bean buttercream). We had a couple formal consultations before we were happy with our design. Jenica is really knowledgeable and walks you through everything including shape and size. Jenica also worked with us when we requested using one of our favorite jams in the cake. On delivery, she decorated the cake with fresh flowers. The final product not only delicious but stunning! We had multiple guests approach us to say ours was one of the best wedding cakes they had tasted.

    Delicious Cakes & Amazing Service

    Jenica was amazing to work with throughout our wedding cake selection process! She put together the most delicious tasting package and overnighted it to us in Boston so that we could taste all the flavors we were considering for our wedding cake. We had a difficult time narrowing it down to just one flavor combination because they were all so delicious so Jenica recommended we select two different flavor combinations for our guests to choose from, and we’re so glad we did! Our guests absolutely loved the brown sugar vanilla cake with raspberry puree and chocolate ganache and the pumpkin cake with maple buttercream filling – many opted for a slice of each! The cake itself was beautiful, and Jenica was able to place a few loose flowers from our florist on the cake to tie everything together. We highly recommend Fancy Pants Cakes for all your cake needs!

    Great, Customized experience

    Fancy Pants was great! Our wedding cake was exactly what we wanted AND she even made a hat-shaped surprise cake (it's an inside joke) per the request of our parents that was a total surprise but also delicious! Definitely recommend her services :)

    Wedding cake

    The cake was beautiful. Even prettier than expected. She was very responsive and creative. We had lemon with strawberry buttercream and vanilla bean frosting. It was delicious and all guests were impressed. Thank you

    Beautiful and delicious cake that we will never forget! Jenica was extremely helpful and professional! Highly recommend!

    Our cake was delicious and beautiful all thanks to Jenica at Fancy Pants Cakes. She was a delight to work with from initial design of the cake, to tastings (which she was kind enough to overnight ship to Louisiana because we were not in town to do an in-person tasting), to the finalized cake. There were plenty of cake flavor/ buttercream options to choose from and we were able to have a cake with three distinct flavor tiers, which we and our guests loved. We could not have asked for a better cake. We cannot recommend Fancy Pants Cakes enough!

    Highly recommend Jenica and Fancy Pants Cakes!

    We had a great experience working with Jenica. Jenica was reliable, easy to work with, and created a beautiful cake exactly what we were looking for. The cake was delicious and we can't wait to eat the extra mini cake we ordered for our anniversary. Would highly recommend Jenica for those in the Vermont area.

    Just what I wanted!

    Jenica was an absolute dream to work with. She understood my vision completely and totally delivered. Not only was everything gorgeous, everyone raved about how good it all tasted. The cake was such a hit that there was none left! She was always my only choice and I would recommend her to anyone.

    Mini Cupcakes!

    We ordered mini cupcakes for our wedding and they were amazing! With mini cupcakes, we were able to get different flavors and frostings. They were a great hit! Coffee nutella was the best!!

    Stunning and delicious cake!!

    We feel so lucky that Jenica kindly agreed to make our wedding cake for us as we were late to the game and she had already filled her schedule by the time we reached out. She made room for us, honored all of our notes and requests, and delivered the most perfectly beautiful and super delicious cake to us for the wedding! We got a three-tiered cake and 400 mini cupcakes and all of it was gone by the following morning! Our guests continue to talk about how good they were. Could not recommend Fancy Pants Cakes more highly. Thank you Jenica and Fancy Pants!!

    Absolutely Incredible

    I can't say enough great things about Fancy Pants Cakes. Our cake was absolutely stunning — the naked layers, ruffle layers, dried citrus, and caramel drip were spectacular. And the flavors were to DIE for!!! Our guests were raving and raving about how amazing our cake was and we just kept smiling and telling them about Fancy Pants!!! It was just so special and meant so much to us to have that gorgeous display and those incredibly special flavors. It was heavenly. I don't even like cake, but the Fancy Pants Cakes aren't too sweet, not too thick, super savory, packed with flavor, and that soft/moist crumb-style cake. Our three different flavors were all amazing. Thank you so much Jenica for your incredible work and expertise. We were so lucky to work with you for our special day!

    Delicious and beautiful cake!

    I’m not really a cake person, but Jenica’s cakes are DELICIOUS. They’re also beautiful. Jenica herself is incredibly organized and professional, and really goes out of her way to make sure she understands what you want your cake to taste like and look like. She was very communicative and extremely easy to work with. She’ll even ship cake tastings to you if you’re having a destination wedding and can’t come to Vermont.

    We loved working with Fancy Pants Cakes!

    We loved working with Jenica for our wedding cake and desserts. She is very professional and responsive. I really appreciated how she reminded me when certain due dates/items were due because I planned our entire wedding and got a bit overwhelmed at times. And she helped recommend flavors which was really helpful. We got married at West Mountain Inn in Arlington VT and she was on the list of recommended vendors for us - were so happy to work with her!

    Amazing Cake!

    Jenica was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was extremely professional and responsive. We had somewhat of an idea of what we wanted for a cake and Jenica helped us brainstorm and tweak the idea to perfection. The tasting box she provided was extremely helpful. Basically all of the cake and frosting flavors tasted amazing, and we settled on the vanilla bean cake with strawberry champagne frosting which was an awesome combo! We knew the cake was going to come out great, but when we finally saw the finished product it was even better than we hoped! Working with Jenica was an overall great experience and we would recommend her to anyone.

    Accommodating, painless, and delicious!

    Jenica from Fancy Pants cake was extremely accommodating and responsive. She accommodated our request for a small elopement cake even though she already had another wedding that weekend, listened to our ideas, and made suggestions in order to get us exactly what we wanted (or even better!). She made the process super easy and the cake was beautiful and delicious. We definitely recommend using Fancy Pants Cakes!

    Absolutely Fantastic!

    We found Jenica by recommendation of our venue. She responded very quickly and answered all out of questions. We were able to meet virtually which was great since we lived a few hours away. We gave her a pretty abstract concept for the cake design and within a day she gave us sketches that were spot on! She even incorporated our two kitties into the cake which we loved. The cake itself, absolutely delicious. All of our guests RAVED about the cake and at least 5 people asked us to share our leftovers after the wedding, which we did not as it's so delicious. Highly, highly recommend Fancy Pants Cakes. We'll definitely get another cake from her in the future when we're in the area.

    Exemplary!

    Working with Jenica was so easy, every step of the way. We had a FaceTime call early on, where she asked questions to get to know us a bit more and to hear more about the elements that were important to us in our cake. It was so clear during that call, that Jenica is truly passionate about her work. We’re based in RI currently so for our tasting, Jenica sent us cupcakes of different flavors of our choosing with various fillings and frostings. We were able to mix and match them in order to come up with the perfect combinations. Our cake looked absolutely beautiful and was delicious! I can’t recommend Jenica and Fancy Pants Cakes enough!

    Everything was amazing

    If you need a special occasion cake in the Vermont area, I would highly recommend Fancy Pants. After a couple brief conversations, I was confident they shared my vision for our wedding cake. Travel restrictions prevented us from doing a tasting, but I was sure it would turn out and taste great. Fancy Pants also did some mini cupcakes for a smaller event a few days before so we ended up having 4 flavor combinations between the two events and they were all so tasty! The wedding cake was perfect and looked so beautiful, it was hard to cut into it!

    Perfect cake for our elopement!

    Jenica baked a tiny, perfect wedding cake for our true elopement (no guests). At first we didn’t want a cake since it was just the two of us but we’re so glad we got one - it was incredibly beautiful and Jenica is a true professional. She coordinated with our florist, decorated the cake with the same flowers from my bouquet, and delivered both the cake AND the flowers, despite being from separate businesses. We were so impressed with her prompt communication and even more impressed with the cake itself, which is delicious - and, in fact, not as tiny as it looked: we have lots of delicious leftovers :) Highly recommended!

    Fancy Pants Cakes's reply:

    Thank you, Emma! It was a pleasure helping to make your day super special, and I'm so glad that you enjoyed the cake.

    Wedding cake

    She was lovely to work with, took the time to get to know us and delivered a cake that fit us perfectly and was delicious.

    Fancy Pants Cakes's reply:

    Thank you Gina! Your cake was a lot of fun to work on, and I loved how it ended up showcasing a joint interest, by way of the "surprise" scene in the back.

    Loved our cake!

    It’s challenging to hire vendors in a pandemic. But thanks to WeddingWire we found Fancy Pants Cakes! Jenica is great to work with. She responded to our inquiry and even though we never met in person, through video chat and emails we came up with the perfect cake! Not only was the design creative and it was the best cake we have ever had! Not a crumb was left over! I would definitely hire her again!

    Fancy Pants Cakes's reply:

    Thank you, Denise! I was so excited to incorporate your invitation florals and your shared love of riding motorcycles. It was a fun one to design!

    delicious and beautiful cake!

    We love Jenica! Not only was she sweet and very easy to work with, she took a few photos and transformed them into the most beautiful cake imaginable! She is extremely talented and thoughtful about her work. For example, we really wanted a "semi-naked" cake, but we also wanted funfetti. Jenica gave us options to make sure we would like the way it looked (ie, did we want the funfetti to show through, or did we want a more natural look). Not only did the cake look beautiful, everyone thought it was absolutely delicious. Thanks Jenica - we can't wait to get another cake from you in the future!

    Beyond our wildest dreams

    Jenica really brought our vision to life. It was beyond anything we could have ever imagined. She went above and beyond making sure each tier was perfectly done and we could never thank her enough. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a cake of any kind. Thank you!!!!
