    Kelly of Inticing Creations baked a delightful cake for our wedding reception. It was a banana cake with layers of chocolate ganache and cream cheese frosting with a homestyle cream cheese frosting on the outside and a gold fondant band around one layer. We met Kelly for a tasting and it was so relaxing and fun. She took notes while we spoke about the wedding details, which I really appreciated.

    Kelly made us a beautiful and delicious cake for our wedding in Sonoma a few weeks ago. I sent her a picture of what I wanted it to look like and it literally looked exactly how I wanted it. We got a little funky with the flavors (both dessert lovers) and had salted caramel and cookies n' cream cake layers which were divine. I wish I would have been able to meet her in person but I can easily recommend her cake making services to those in need of a delicious celebratory treat. Thanks Kelly!

    Kelly makes the most delicious cakes I've ever tasted! She recently made our wedding cake, grooms cake, and a special "mini" cake for someone attending our wedding that was celebrating their 30th birthday. We chose her Strawberry Dream flavor for our wedding cake with white, folded fondant and the Chocolate Raspberry flavor for the grooms cake. Both were moist and delicious! I sent her pictures of all 3 cake designs and they turned out just as pictured (even more beautiful actually). We will be ordering a special cake from her on our 1st anniversary , cannot wait ! I will be dreaming about her vanilla butter cake with strawberry filling until then! =) Thanks Kelly!

    Kelly Zubal did an amazing job on our wedding cake. We wanted something unique and instead of going with a traditional cake we decided to go with a grooms cake instead. My husband and I are both fans of Dr. Who and wanted to have the T.A.R.D.I.S as our main cake.

    She did an amazing job, not only was it the T.A.R.D.I.S, but she made it look as if my dress was coming out of it. We were so happy that it turned out so well.

    The wedding cake, was to me, one of the most important parts of our reception. It had to taste good, in addition to looking pretty. Our cake was simply, but beautiful. We went with her Chocolate Caramel Crunch cake, though the Lemon Blueberry Bliss was also an incredible option. Sadly I didn't get any wedding cake at our wedding, so I can't wait until our first anniversary to have some of our top layer.

    We came across Kelly while planning our wedding at Sebastiani in Sonoma in September and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She created delicious cupcakes for us, including red velvet, cookies and creme (with real oreos.....that's a must with me), and chocolate salted caramel. They were sooooo good, and looked adorable at our wedding. Working with Kelly was easy, stress-free and not at all time consuming, which any brides know is a total blessing during the planning process! I would definitely recommend her and hope to have the opportunity to taste her cakes again!!

    We were referred to Kelly of Inticing Creations by Stanford Court Hotel. When we looked at the list of cakes she has to offer, our mouths were watering. It took some effort to narrow down the tasting list. We finally decided to taste the salted caramel chocolate, mint chocolate chip, chocolate raspberry truffle, the elvis and the caramelized pear pecan.

    Kelly was very warm and welcoming as we arrived at the kitchen/office. She was obviously passionate about her craft and we had a fun time coming up with the final look of our wedding cake!! I showed her different pictures of what I like and, in the end, she suggested to combine two of my favorite looks into one cake. I was thrilled!! The cakes themselves were MARVELOUS!!! We could have eaten bigger pieces if she had them.

    On the day of the wedding, I could not believe my eyes when I saw the cake. She made it happen and built the combination cake we talked about! It was way more beautiful than I had expected!! All of our guests were raving about how good the cake tasted at the wedding. I even know of a few who ate more than one piece, or were able to try all 3 flavors in the cake! They couldn't get enough of it!

    I would really recommend Kelly because of her delicious cakes, her passion for making the best cakes, and her fun, friendly personality!

    Kelly is amazing to work with. She's personable and creative. Her menu choices are simply amazing. We chose blueberry cake with lemon buttercream and the Elvis - banana cake with chocolate ganache and chunky peanut butter buttercream. After the tasting, I was in shock. It was the first time I ever tasted wedding cake that wasn't dry.

    Her prices are reasonable given the fact that the cake not only looks good but tastes great.

    The leftover cake is sitting in my fridge and after almost a week, it's still moist and amazing.

    Kelly was great - we presented our ideas and she was so enthusiastic and creative - it made us even more excited about our cake! Her chocolate/raspberry cake is YUMMY. She's very professional and responsive - responds to emails timely, touches base with any questions. No problems with cake delivery. Cost of the cake was great.

    Not having a traditional wedding cake for our wedding day, I asked Kelly to replicate a rugby ball groom's cake as a surprise for my soon to be husband, and she did not disappoint. The cake was amazing and he was floored by how accurate it was, even down to the little details like our wedding date on the bar code. It was a hit with all of our wedding guests as well as his rugby team!

    Kelly is amazing. She makes the most beautiful and delicious cakes out there. I have a soy allergy and she managed to work with me to make the most incredible chocolate, banana and caramel cake. It was extremely elegant yet modern in design and our tasting with her was so much fun. She has tons of images of all of her designs and they are beautiful! Highly recommend Kelly and Inticing Creations. We hope to make an anniversary cake with her!

    Kelly was professional when we meet her. My fiancé added a surprise guest to join us for our tasting and Kelly was very accommodating. She has a cute shop in SoMA! It was clean and well organized. She had 4 bite size cakes for each of us, which were perfect for tasting. We showed her a picture of what I wanted, a 3 tier cake with a gold bottom and wisteria middle (soft lavender color). Although, the middle part of the cake was a dark purple instead of wisteria that I prefer, the cake turned out to be beautiful! I received many compliments on it! I ended up getting 2 different flavors white chocolate chai and chocolate raspberry. We requested extra raspberry and both flavors turned out very tasty! My guest loved it!

    My venue had an all-inclusive contract, so I had no choice but to use this vendor.

    I think our timing was off from the start. When I signed my venue's contract, I wanted to schedule my cake tasting right away (my engagement was only 6 months) and ask a few questions, but I caught Kelly right as she was out on an epic vacation in Italy. She didn't respond until she came back, but she was accommodating in scheduling a tasting on the same day as my engagement shoot.

    When we got there, we were asked to wait outside since someone else was finishing their tasting. It was hot that day (which is odd for San Francisco), so it would've been nice if we were offered chairs or if we could've waited inside.

    I brought picture samples and explained what we wanted. She said it would be no problem. This was a small 2 tier cake for 35 people, so I didn't doubt her. The tasting went great, even though we were rushed. The cake at the tasting was moist and I was looking forward to the cake more than the actual wedding.

    On my actual wedding day, the cake did not look like what we discussed. Nor did it look like it was even made by her. I've seen her other cakes and they are gorgeous. Our cake had some lumps in the fondant and the design on the bottom tier of the cake was majorly disappointing. The fondant was chewy and the cake itself was dry. The flavor was good, but the texture of the fondant and the dryness masked the unique flavors (salted caramel chocolate and white chocolate chai).

    If I redid my wedding, I'd bring a cake from an outside vendor.
