Reina Sent on 11/18/2024Beautiful and Delicious Deserts!
We worked with Kelly at Glass Slipper Gourmet for our wedding cake and desserts. At our tasting and design appointment she walked us through the entire process and her wide range of cake flavors had something for everyone, sweet, floral and/or rich. Her signature flavor “Honey Bee Mine” was so well balanced and original, our guests could not stop raving about it!
Kelly helped us come up with a unique design based off of a couple of pictures that complemented our overall event, and also made a sheet cake to supplement as well as a mini dessert bar with brownies, rice crispies and cupcakes for 80 people, and delivered them to our venue.

Daniel Sent on 02/14/2024Amazing cake designer!
We're beyond happy we chose Glass Slipper to cater our September wedding in Berkeley. Kelly worked with us to create a very personalized cake taste and design that was tailored to us, and she was super helpful coordinating everything from the design, to the taste, to the return of the items she loaned us (which we accidentally stole – she was incredibly understanding).
Many of our attendees were blown away by the design, which was non-traditionally beautiful (we had a mountainous landscape with a starry night). Additionally, the cake flavors we had, honey lavender and almond vanilla, were tasty and highly distinct. Highly recommend! -

Kathryn Sent on 11/23/2021Beautiful cupcakes and cutting cake!
After our May 2020 wedding was postponed, we agreed with our vendors to follow up the following year about our new date of October 16th, 2021. Unfortunately, our only vendor that fell through was our baker, who retired. We had our hearts set on the flavors we had initially chosen and the person who took her business over was unable to accommodate our dream cupcake and cutting cake menu. Although we were worried about finding a new vendor, it ended up being a silver lining, as we found Kelly with Glass Slipper Gourmet and were thrilled with her work! She was quick to respond, professional, completely accommodating of our hopes for our flavors, and when we met for our tasting we realized how lucky we were to work with her! We went in with our original menu set in our minds, but upon tasting her signature flavor (Honey Bee Mine) we were completely blown away and knew we had to add it to our cupcake menu immediately! Our guests raved about the cupcake flavors and the presentation (including our cake topper featuring the bride, groom, and our feline companion) and our cutting cake were just beautiful. We are looking forward to having our frozen leftover cake on our 1-year anniversary! -

Christine Sent on 05/11/2021Amazing desserts!
Kelly was our dessert vendor for our wedding and I can't recommend her more highly. Her creations are stunning and she has the most amazing flavors - I challenge you to pick only one! We had change our large wedding to a small backyard gathering due to COVID (with the hope of a reception later on), and Kelly was very flexible about letting us move our deposit for the bigger event and working with us for a smaller scale dessert set-up for the backyard gathering as well. We went with a simple cutting cake in the Mexican Hot Chocolate flavor - a marble cake spiced with cayenne and cinnamon that is to die for, which Kelly artfully arranged flowers from our florist on top of - and cupcakes modeled off her signature Honey Bee Mine flavor, lavender blossom cupcakes with blueberry filling and honey cream cheese. Our families absolutely loved the desserts and understood why we'd been hyping them up since we booked. I can't wait to work with Kelly again in the future and highly, highly recommend that you order one of her cakes! -

Jennifer Sent on 02/05/2021I Still Dream About This Cake
I was so happy with how this cake looked and even more impressed with the taste. Kelly was fantastic and was able to help me refine my vision. We were able to do an in-person tasting which was also amazing- it was hard to narrow down to two flavors for our two-tier cake. I loved how this cake turned out and everyone raved about the two flavors- Princess Cake and the Blueberry Lavender. -

Geneva Sent on 07/06/2015Kelly is a JEWEL!
My husband and I met Kelly O'Brian back in 2009 and hired her to design our wedding cake for our 2010 wedding, which we ended up forfeiting to elope! So when we made the decision to RENEW OUR VOWS (WEDDING STYLE) for our 5 year anniversary, it was NO DOUBT Kelly was our choice!
She allowed us to DESIGN OUR OWN cake and she brought it into fruition absolutely EFFORTLESSLY! Her custom flavors were a HIT at our event and our guests are still craving more of it post wedding! Lol.
Thank you SO MUCH Kelly for being such a "ROCKSTAR" -- We will definitely choose you over and over again for every major event we host! -

Winnie Sent on 06/26/2014Kelly from Glass slipper gourmet went above and beyond for our cake. I am so impressed! We had an Alice in Wonderland themed wedding and having a whimsical cake is a big part of the event. Not only was the cake delicious but it was beautiful. Kelly sculpted the most amazing cake decorations out of gum sugar from flowers, over size teacup & saucer to a golden pocket watch, the details was amazing! Glass slipper gourmet is professional, informative, taste great and all at a very fair price. You can't go wrong with them. -

Abigail Sent on 10/15/2013Kelly is fantastic!
We had e-mailed her inquiring about a cake for our wedding. She came to our house for a complimentary cake tasting with about 10 flavors, all were amazing! She told us that she already had an event that day but she could do our cake if she could deliver it at 2pm. We ended up picking two flavors and she decorated it beautifully! She didn't try talking us into decorations or designs that we didn't want. I can't wait until our 1st anniversary so I can dig into that cake again! -

Victoria Sent on 06/06/2011Kelly at Glass Slipper Gourmet is a real gem of a lady. She is energetic, creative, professional, and I could go on and on but mostly she is TALENTED! Her prices are reasonable and her work is impeccable. She REALLY LISTENS and keeps up with a bride's changing ideas. She can take your vision and really turn it into something that you absolutely love. I loved my wedding cake - both the design and the flavor (dark chocolate with both milk and dark chocolate mouse filling). If you have the opportunity I'd say HIRE KELLY!
(Insider note: she has an awesome cake flavor that's perfect for wedding or baby showers: "Honey Bee Mine"! Check it out on her blog: http://glassslippergourmet.wordpress.com/cake-flavors/) -

Kimberly Sent on 06/05/2011Absolutely AMAZING! The cake was beautiful AND delicious. Even the tasting process was great (she comes right to your house and doesn't charge for it!).
We could really tell that Kelly put a lot of time, thought and energy in to the design of our cake. She took the theme of our wedding and the detail on my dress as inspiration and it turned out beautiful.
My new husband and I as well as our 75 guests were extremely happy with the design, detail and flavor (Jamaican Rum) of our cake.
The prices are incredibly (and surprisingly) reasonable for everything we got. She definitely could charge a lot more for all that was done for us. You can tell that there is a lot of passion put in to the cakes that are produced and to me, it's the small details that make an incredible wedding. Kelly helped to make ours all the more special. -

If You Want a Fantastic Cake, You Can't Go Wrong with Glass Slipper Gourmet!
The cake we got for our wedding was spectacular, both visually and in terms of its deliciousness! We opted for a more modern style, marbled color on fondant, and the result was stunning, a great centerpiece for our wedding. In addition, both the cappuccino and blueberry cake flavors were phenomenal. The blueberry in particular was not just good but very interesting, truly unique and unlike anything we’d had before.
In terms of planning and preparation, Kelly was extremely professional. We had a pleasant experience tasting a variety of flavors, and she took plenty of time to work with us about our ideas for a wedding cake and come up with something we’d really like! She was also so helpful guiding us in the planning process, as we hadn’t gone to look at linens/colors yet, right away Kelly sprang into action, gave us a recommended vendor for rentals, called them up to see what availability they had and explained the process/order of planning to us. It was extremely helpful and definitely above and beyond!
Due to an emergency closure of our initial venue we had to make some minor schedule changes relatively late in the planning process, and Kelly took this in stride and took care of everything for us.
Big thumbs up for Glass Slipper Gourmet, they nailed it! -

Catherine Sent on 11/26/2017We were three or four months away from our wedding and our original cake maker wasn't able to help us.
From the moment I reached out to Kelly to help us with our wedding, she was immediately responsive, excited and ready to help us. My husband and I wanted something unique to us for our wedding cake and we asked her for a Napoleon cake. We sent concept ideas back and forth, she gave me ideas and explained the logistics for the day of. Oh and the the tasting was such a spectacular experience, and delicious.
On the day of, the cake could not have been more perfect. It was beyond beautiful. All of our guest were in awe of how beautiful it was as well as the taste ;)
Overall, Kelly provides the best quality, customer service and price. Highly recommend for any event! -

Jenny Sent on 10/16/2017Our beautiful cupcake tower wedding was absolutely perfect. The cake was absolutely delicious! We had Snickerdoodle, Mocha Cappuccino, and Pucker Up (Lemon) cupcakes. There was a variety of unique flavors that Kelly offered that we would have loved to include but we stuck to three! Kelly followed through with my vision completely. The cake was better than I could have possibly imagined. Kelly was very professional and paid attention to our wants and needs.
I would highly recommend Glass Slipper Gourmet for your wedding. Kelly was affordable and incredibly professional. I am so happy with our wedding cake. It was delicious and beautiful. -
