    Amazing cake!!!

    Kakes by Katie did a fantastic job with our wedding cake!!! I got a three layer cake with red velvet, almond, and pink champange. Katie was flexible with the guest counts changing due to COVID. We sent her a picture of how we wanted the cake to look and she replicated it exactly the way we wanted it. My guests raved about our cake! We were originally going to the save the top layer for our one year anniversary but we loved the cake so much we ended up eating it already and plan on ordering another cake for our one year. Thank you Katie for your great work!

    Great experience!

    Katie was amazing! She is such a skilled baker, creating unique and delicious flavors. We wanted a fairly simple 3 tier cake, with each tier a different flavor, and she definitely delivered! Her decorating was simple, tasteful, and just what we envisioned. She delivered and set up the cake for us, and even placed flowers from our florist here and there on the cake and placed our cake topper for us! She truly went above and beyond and created a cake that was both aesthetically pleasing and delicious. The entire process was easy and stress free! Highly recommend!

    Beautiful and delicious cake

    Katie's two tier cake was beautiful and all our guests raved about how delicious it was. It was so good, we're going to order another smaller version of our cake to have more of it.

    Katie was recommended to me from a friend who is also a wedding planner. I went and had my tasting and it was some of the best cake I had ever tasted... my sister had a massive wedding and a very expensive cake and it was nowhere as good as the one Katie made for my wedding. She was able to create exactly what I was envisioning, and what I found on Pinterest haha... The cake was moist, the filling was delicious and she is just the sweetest thing! I loved it sooooo much that I reordered the top tier of the cake for our 1 year anniversary!

    If you like taste over frills - YES YES YES!!!

    My husband and I were so shocked when we tasted Katie's cakes. They are INCREDIBLY TASTY! Cake was soft and the flavors came through. We got a very simple white cake with five tiers and it turned out PERFECT! I have no complaints! The white amaretto cake and the key lime cake were my favorites. We had four different flavors and she was super flexible with what we wanted! Best tasting cake and the most reasonably priced!

    White Chocolate Cake with Raspberry filling is awesome

    A themed wedding can be hard to execute and pinterest can make you feel inadequate when you can't have what you're looking for (that isn't over budget). Katie was able to provide exactly what my daughter in law asked for, delivered within our budget AND WAS FABULOUS!! The cake was delicious, moist and beautifully decorated. Every guest commented on the taste and texture, and really enjoyed it. I highly recommend Katie. She'll even make you sample cupcakes so you can taste test!!

    Best cake I have ever had

    Katie was so kind and easy to work with. She gave me exactly what I wanted. She even went above and beyond to give me my own personal tasting of cakes! My cake was so amazing I couldn’t ask for anything better. It was very simple looking but it’s exactly what I wanted. She even drove all the way out to Gainesville to deliver my cake. Would absolutely recommend!

    Katie provided a beautiful and delicious cake for my daughters wedding. All the way from the cake tasting appointment through the wedding, Katie provided great customer service and an amazingly delicious cake!! I called Katie about a week before the wedding because I was nervous about the size of the cake. She was so accommodating and agreed to add another layer to the cake to ease this nervous Mother's mind! (And I have to say, there was not any cake left!!) I highly recommend Kakes by Katie for any special occasion cake you may need.

    We met Katie at our venue's catering/tasting event, where we sampled some delicious mini white chocolate cupcakes. We planned on ordering our wedding cake through Publix, but when we tasted those little cupcakes, we decided to do a little research and schedule a tasting with for the following month. The tasting was so fun and laid back, and the tasting portions were absolutely huge! We got to try nine different flavor combos, all of which were delicious, to the point that we had a hard time settling on just two combinations for our small cake. In the end we went with one tier of almond cake with amaretto cream filling, and a second tier of lemon cake with blackberry mousse. Both were delicious, and the cake itself was beautiful, a perfect reflection of our original cake inspo picture. We ordered the minimum required fifty servings of cake, though our guest count wound up being lower, and were glad to have so much extra cake on hand when everyone started requesting second helpings! By the end of the night, it was all gone, and my husband and I were happy to have some generous pieces packed away to eat on our honeymoon the following day! Thanks Katie for a gorgeous and delicious wedding cake!

    Our wedding cake looked and tasted amazing. We received so much feedback from guests about how wonderful the cake was and nothing went to waste . It was a beautiful triple level cake with three different flavor and filling combinations. Katie was also very receptive to all our requests .

    After the wedding, we called Katie "an angel in the night" because she literally swooped in, made the cake with perfection, and left without a sound. She was great, communication was great, and execution was great! She made the before process easy and all her cake flavors were delicious it made it hard to choose. We asked for a plain white cake with rainbow inside and that's exactly what we got. Loved it!!

    Kakes by Katie made our wedding cake for our “Notebook Themed” wedding at the Winterbourne Inn. Our cake was so perfect and absolutely delicious. It was a huge hit! Katie was so professional and easy to work with. We met with her for a tasting which was fantastic. Funny story, neither my husband nor I are big cake eaters so we weren’t really excited about this part of our wedding, but we went to the tasting, trying to keep a positive attitude. When Katie brought out many different samples, we took the first bite, we looked at each other and were blow away. This was cake? It was absolutely delicious. Better than any cake we had ever had. We tried to contain ourselves during the tasting but I know we looked like vultures going through all the samples. We booked her immediately. We did a three tier cake with Traditional Vanilla, Champagne Strawberry filling, and Key Lime. She also provide incredible cupcakes as part of our desserts. Everyone loved all she made. She was prompt to respond during the process and delivered on time. We would HIGHLY recommend Kakes by Katie for your wedding or any event.

    Katie is very accommodating and a very busy Baker! I was going to use Publix for my Wedding Cake but they wouldn't do anything but Chocolate or Vanilla on the cake itself and I wanted Champagne for my cake. I called Kakes by Katie and told her I wanted a Champagne cake with Strawberry Glaze filling and Vanilla Buttercream icing and that I had my own "Topper" and that I also wanted fresh strawberries cut like Roses and placed around the cake as garnishment and she said "No Problem"!

    Katie's cakes are delicious! Lemon with blackberry filling was to die for, as was the strawberry cream cheese and chocolate. The cake was beautiful, delicious and Katie was very accommodating and easy to work with!

    Katie is amazing and I am so pleased we decided on her cake services for our wedding. Our guests are still talking about great our wedding cake was. She offered so many options during our tasting and it was so hard to narrow the flavors down! She's very professional and her pricing is unbeatable! Thank you again Katie!

    The cake was gorgeous and tasted amazing! Most cakes dry out after a couple of days, but a week later and it was still very moist. Her flavors are also different than basic cake shops so you can personalize it!
