    Not just a baker, a true artist

    When my now husband and I first got engaged, I started envisioning our wedding cake. I knew it had to be delicious but also beautiful. Finding the perfect baker proved to be very difficult. After sampling at least a half dozen different bakeries I almost gave up. Nothing impressed me more than my coworkers baking (and she’s just a hobby baker). Finally, I found Kyrsten. THANK GOODNESS FOR HER.

    After chatting with her via email, she set us up with a tasting box of cake flavors of our choosing and then several frostings again of our choosing. We were able to mix and match different cake flavors with the frostings to find our perfect combo(s). I had not seen that idea executed from any other baker so I was extremely impressed. I was even more impressed with how delicious everything was. Her cake was everything I had been searching for. Even my husband was impressed and he doesn’t love sweet treats. Before finding Kyrsten he could care less what cake we had. He definitely cared after having our tasting box!

    For our wedding we went with a three-tiered cake that Kyrsten designed herself! I had a few ideas but let her ultimately have creative freedom. Right after we discussed our vision for the cake, she sent us a rough draft of a hand SKETCHED picture of our future cake. Not only is she an amazing baker but a true artist! It was everything we could have dreamed of. We also ordered hand decorated sugar cookies that were not only delicious but once again STUNNING. By the end of the night, there was not a single piece of cake left. I have since received so many complements on our cake.

    Kyrsten was hands down one of the easiest vendors to work with. She is extremely organized, has a very easy portal to submit payments, flavors, and any other ideas on, and she also responds to emails VERY quickly. Over the two years working with her, she always remembered everything we talked about and was such a joy to talk to.

    I HIGHLY recommend Kyrsten. I can’t wait to have an excuse to work with her again! Seriously though, you will not be disappointed!!

    Amazing Cake and Amazing Vendor!

    I am so thankful that we chose Kyrsten to design and bake our wedding cake. She was incredibly helpful, patient, and responsive, and and final product was absolutely beautiful and of course incredibly delicious! I had wedding guests coming up to me even before the end of the reception to tell me how much they enjoyed the cake. The presentation was beautiful as well! I would highly recommend Kyrsten's Sweet Designs to anybody searching for a wedding cake or other wedding goodies/sweets.

    Kyrsten is amazing

    Kyrsten was lovely to work with on creating my sweet/dessert table. She attentively listened to my vision and made it comes true. She was greatly to work with from the beginning to the end. Her sugared cookies were nicely decorated, cake was beautifully decorated with real flowers and the cupcakes were just amazing. Kyrsten has a strong work ethic and it shows in her works. My guests kept commented on how amazing her cookies/cupcakes were. We would highly recommend Kyrsten for her talented and delicious sweet treats!

    The cake BOSS :)

    I did a google search and found Kyrsten’s sweet designs, I am so glad I did that search. I will say we are so lucky to have found her because she is organized, extremely professional and her cakes are amazing. She was one of our favorite vendors to work with I had to fly out to do our cake tasting with her. We live in Arizona however we had our wedding in PA. She worked with my schedule to fly out and was a great host. Kyrsten is so kind, friendly and bakes great cakes. If you have the opportunity to work with her do not miss it, because if you do you are surely missing out. My favorite cake flavor from our wedding was the lemon flavor and filling super yummy.

    We Loved Her!!! A+++

    Omg, not only are her cake designs absolutely beautiful, they taste sooooo delicious. Kyrsten made the cake for our wedding and everyone at the wedding LOVED it and continued to compliment us on how delicious and beautiful the cake was. Our flavors were marble with cookies and cream filling. Not only was her cake design stunning and delicious, but Kyrsten was also such a joy and a sweetheart to work with. Her Customer service skills are gold and she was so great from the start - I recommend her services to everyone for any special or non-special occasions. We loved her and she made our day even more special with her attention to detail, and professionalism.

    Kyrsten is truly THE BEST.

    Kyrsten and her delicious creations are THE BEST! Kyrsten made us a tiered cake and personalized cookies for our Wedding and they were as delicious as they were beautiful! Not only is she very talented but she is absolutely lovely to work with as a vendor. Kyrsten was always so kind and helpful and promptly answered any questions. Whenever we told our other vendors who was making the cake, they were all so excited because they love Kyrsten and she has a respected reputation. We knew nothing about wedding cakes before planning our own wedding. Kyrsten helped us think through what we wanted and encouraged us to just have fun with the process! We were so proud of our cake and cookies and our guests loved them!

    Beautiful and Delicious!

    Kyrsten's cakes are what brought me in but her cookies are what sold me. When I first started looking for a baker cookies weren't even on my mind. But after searching for bakers in the York area and coming across Kyrsten's instagram page full of her beautiful designs, there was no way I wasn't going to have them at our wedding. Both the cake and cookies were absolutely beautiful and delicious! In fact we intentionally ordered extra cookies so that we could take some home with us. We put a bunch in the freezer to snack on every once in a while. We finally finished our last two and I have to say - even frozen they were delicious! Who knew a frozen cookie could taste so good?! We live over an hour away from Kyrsten but still plan on using her for special events in the future. Could not recommend enough!

    Wonderful Experience!

    Kyrsten was amazing!!! So kind, and easy to work with, especially with the pandemic changing things constantly. Her desserts were absolutely delicious, and the display was everything I imagined and more. Pricing was very reasonable as well. I highly suggest! We will use her desserts for future occasions!

    Krysten is amazing! Book her now!

    I highly recommend Kyrsten’s Sweet Designs for your wedding cake needs! She is a sweetheart and was so easy to work with! We loved the “trial” cupcakes to help decide on our flavors and really appreciated how easy it was to communicate with her in the months leading up to our big day. The cake was amazing! It was exactly what we wanted- simply, elegant, and delicious! She was very helpful with deciding how big of a cake we would need based on our numbers and even offers sheet cakes! She did a beautiful job of decorating the cake with the fresh flowers provided by my florist (my mom!) and the style fit the vibe of my greenery focus decor perfectly. She also provided a mini “anniversary” cake that we have in the freezer to enjoy next yr! Thank you for providing outstanding services and baking the wedding cake of our dreams!

    This Cake is a HIT!

    Kyrsten baked our wedding cake for our small backyard wedding this past weekend, and it was both beautiful AND delicious! She was so amazing to work with, even putting together a taste-testing box to help me and my now husband pick out the flavor of our cake in a safe manner. All of our guests remarked how good the cake was - one even said "I don't even like cake, and I can't stop eating this!". I highly recommend Kyrsten's services, and can't wait to book her again for a future celebration!

    Fantastic!

    Absolutely amazing experience with Kyrsten! From the initial planning call, to the tasting, to the delivery and setup I was 100% in good hands and at ease. I had Kyrsten made my beautiful wedding cake as well and special cookie favors. Both exceeded expectations! It was my vision to have everything on the cake be edible, and she was able to accommodate with the most exquisite sugar flowers. My guests couldn't believe they weren't real! I was so confident in her timeliness and capability to set up the cake stand, cake, and cake topper, as well as layout the cookie favors - I literally didn't have to even give it a thought on my big day. Krysten is so kind and seriously the best!!!

    June 12 Wedding

    Kyrsten was absolutely amazing to work with and such a talented baker! She was able to see my vision and make it become a reality for our dessert table, include 2 different cakes and a variety of cupcakes. Kyrsten helped me to surprise my golf loving husband with the most incredible golf bag grooms cake that truly blew myself, my husband, and our guest away. Not only were all the desserts beautiful to look like but they also tasted fantastic. We cannot recommend Kyrsten enough!

    Mother of the bride.

    The sweets for the wedding were delicious and presentation was as expected. Kyrsten made special cookies at the bride’s request with llamas dressed as brides and grooms that were so cute and unique. I would recommend this bakery to everyone.

Our guests are still raving about the cupcakes – especially the carrot cake 😊 She delivers and sets up the dessert table – I highly recommend adding this to your package as well, the cake platters and stands are gorgeous!

    The Greatest Baker!

    Kyrsten is an amazing baker who we loved working with when planning our wedding! First, she baked delicious sugar cookies for my bridal shower that I gave to guests as party favors. Multiple guests commented that they were so pretty and the perfect party favors! Second, she baked the most beautiful and delicious wedding cake. She perfectly captured our vision of elegance and simplicity. It was also beyond yummy! We had a lot of guests tell us that it was the best wedding cake they ever had! Overall, Kyrsten was great to work with and we’re so happy she was a part of our special day. We highly recommend her!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Kyrsten was absolutely amazing to work with! From the cake tasting experience all the way through the day of vision I had, she exceeded our expectations. The guests are still talking about the cake at our wedding!!

    Kyrsten also did our bridal shower cookies, and everyone asked us who we had so they can book her for their wedding!

    Stress free planning, so many options, and always focused on getting the dessert exactly right. I will be using Kyrsten for all my future dessert needs!

    Cake queen

    I met Kyrsten at a wedding show and was intially drawn in by the really unique display cake she had there, but once I tasted one of her mini cupcake samples and realized how incredibly sweet she was - I was sold! She has a bunch of amazingly delicious flavors to choose from and this was a difficult decision to make - but we went with the vanilla bean cake with vanilla bean buttercream, berry cake with berry buttercream, and marble cake with chocolate buttercream. Her cakes and cookies are also absolute works of art. I love following her on instagram and seeing the amazing designs she comes up with for various weddings and events! Our cake was a huge hit - everyone raved about the design and all the flavors, and the leftovers were gone pretty quickly the day after our wedding when friends and family stopped by. Luckily we still have our anniversary cake to look forward to! Kyrsten was a dream to work with from beginning to end and I could not possibly recommend her enough!!
