    Delicious Desserts!

    Allison did an incredible job bringing our small cake and dessert bar to life! We wanted a fairly minimalist cake, and what she brought to life was exactly like the inspiration photo we shared. We received nothing but positive compliments on the desserts, especially the tiramisu jars! Everything was absolutely delicious, and we highly recommend Lake Tahoe Cakes for your big day.

    D e l i c i o u s

    We cannot recommend this *sweet* bakery in South Lake Tahoe enough. My husband and I planned a destination wedding and relied heavily on online reviews and social media accounts to make our decision. Lake Tahoe Cakes not only produces absolutely gorgeous desserts, they are incredibly tasty, too. We decided to do a small cake for cutting and focus on a spread of dessert treats for our wedding sweets. EVERYTHING was devoured. After sharing the first bite of our cake cutting, my husband stood there and continued to feed each other the slice of cake (it was too good to put down). We also ordered the bakery's adorable Lake Tahoe cookie with a red heart stamped on it, honoring our wedding location for our welcome bags. Again, they were delighted by all our guests. This bakery is easy to work with (I changed my cake design at least three times :)) and beyond delicious. You can't go wrong!

    Lake Tahoe Cakes Rocks!

    My husband and I got married in a fairly small ceremony in Lake Tahoe this June. For our reception we knew we didn't want a traditional huge cake, but still wanted something special to mark the occasion. Lake Tahoe Cakes helped us to create a beautiful cupcake display that was such a hit with our guests. The cake flavors they offered are classic, but really tasty and trust me there was not a single cupcake left over. I will be buying our one year anniversary cake from them for sure!

    Professional and Delicious!

    We hired Lake Tahoe Cakes to serve our wedding in the North Lake Tahoe area and she was the right choice. We visited a few months before the event to do a tasting and we were impressed with every flavor she offered. And she made it easy for us to pick the cake that worked for us. She also provided customized desserts, even ones that other vendors said they wouldn’t do for us. We highly recommend!

    Magical cakes

    Lake Tahoe cakes was an excellent choice! Everything was so beautiful and delicious! We opted for 3 flavor combinations a lemon cake and blueberries filling, a chocolate cake and brown sugar buttercream and raspberry jam, and a apricot jam almond cake with almond frosting. All three were amazing.... I'll admit it... I opted to eat all three!

    They also made beautiful French macarons for our wedding favors. So delicious as well!

    We would highly recommend selecting Lake Tahoe Cakes for you wedding goodies and cake!

    Stunning and Delicious!

    Allison with Lake Tahoe cakes made our vision come true! Not only was our cake stunning but it was equally delicious. She was easy to work with and very timely with all our questions and concerns. We deeply appreciate everything they did to make our day so special. We cant wait to eat the top tier on our first anniversary. I would recommend Lake Tahoe Cakes to anyone looking for stunning cakes and desserts in the Lake Tahoe area!!

    Delicious and beautiful!

    Wow could not be more happy with our cake and desserts. Allison was helpful with her recommendations on flavors and amount for our guest count. We planned without a tasting since we did a destination wedding. Our desserts were devoured and we got such great feedback on the flavor of our cake. Highly recommend Lake Tahoe cakes for your events or wedding. :)

    Sweet people and sweet desserts

    I don’t know how many times I changed our order, but Allison and Mrs. Lisa were so easy to work with. The cake and cupcakes were delicious. Everyone loved the cookies. We had to postpone because of the Caldor fire and they made that process so easy. I also threw southern cake pulls at a California girl and she executed beautifully.

    Look No Further!

    The one thing my husband wanted more than anything on our wedding day was his grooms cake. A big, red, semi truck cake. Boy did Allison and Lisa deliver! From the tasting to the delivery and all the details in-between, it was more than we could have asked for. Our cake(s) were the talk of our wedding and we are so grateful for their "sweet" talent!

    beautiful and delicious!

    We used Lake Tahoe Cakes for our wedding back in October. We had a tasting where we fell in love with all the different flavors and combinations. They had such a cute tasting room and really made the experience special. We had Lake Tahoe Cakes create a raspberry and champagne cake as well as a dessert bar and cookies as our wedding gift. Everything were delicious and absolutely beautiful. They were extremely communicative and thorough. I sent them pictures and ideas and they executed my dreams perfectly. Highly recommend using Lake Tahoe Cakes for your event. - Amanda & Luke Zupan

    Beautiful, delicious desserts!

    Our wedding desserts were not only beautiful, but delicious and the team was very easy to work with. Lisa was happy to accommodate all changes and design requests that we asked for. Planning our wedding from across the country, it was really nice having vendors that were responsive, trustworthy and happy to answer questions. Our lemon swirl cake, cupcakes and lemon bars were SO DELICIOUS. We would highly recommend Lake Tahoe Cakes!

    Amazing cake!

    My husband didn't know what I ordered, and he was blown away. The cake turned out amazing, and the cupcakes were delicious! The setup and display was also beautiful. I was totally surprised and amazed when I saw the display table! Thank you for being a part of our special day!

    Amazing Wedding Cakes

    We ordered a beautiful 3 tier wedding cake plus a grooms cake for the rehearsal dinner. They were both SO delicious and Allison and her team were very helpful throughout the whole process. Thank you so much!! We’ll definitely have to come back for some anniversary cakes or cakes just for fun.

    Fantastic Cake and Tasing

    Lake Tahoe Cakes made the one of the best looking and definitely the best tasting wedding cake I have ever had. The tasting was a ton of fun and we ended up with a unique flavor profile. They were incredibly flexible through covid with changing the date and size of the cake. Many thanks and I can't wait to come back on an anniversary for more.

    Beyond Amazing!!

    Alison aid the most talented Cake Designer in all of Lake Tahoe. If you’re considering her I wouldn’t look elsewhere. My cake was perfection and tasty too! I had her make me some cookies for my guest, some mini pies, a birthday cake and a wedding cake. Price was super reasonable. Couldn’t recommend Lake Tahoe Cakes more!

    Mouthwatering Cake and Dessert

    Had the easiest time working with Allison. As we were changing our entire wedding plans due to the pandemic, we were unable to taste the cake in advance.. and truly we did not have too. My husband and I live in NJ and working with Allison from across the country was so easy. She was very responsive and took my inspiration pictures into account when creating our moon themed wedding cake. Our guests devoured the desserts and cake in minutes. highly recommend!

    Beyond Amazing

    Allison and her talent are so more than we could have asked for.

    I don't eat sugar so have little preference on flavors, my other half however is a foodie. We were on our 5th different tasting when we drove to Allison's shop where she had the most organized and adorable layout ready for his tasting.

    Our goal was a one tier cutting cake and one flavor of cupcakes. The flavors, the textures were allnso amazing that we got 3 tiers with all different flavors and 4 cupcake flavors. It was beyond amazing!!

    The day I had asked that Allison incorporate our topper and a few other details by way of our coordinator. I had no specific outcome because we trusted her so much to do her work. She was able to incorporate our topper, 3 individual pieces to represent our dogs that could not be in attendance and the florals. It was beautiful, delicious and absolute perfection

    Delicious and beautiful dessert!

    Allison is so sweet! We are so happy she did the dessert for our wedding. Everything from the tasting to the wedding went smoothly. She goes above and beyond! We were looking for someone to make custom donuts and do a small cake to cut. Allison bakes the freshest fried and cake donuts. Her flavors are incredible and speak to her creativity and talent. We ended up getting a cake for the bridal suite in a pink champagne flavor. It tasted amazing and was so beautifully decorated! Zephyr Lodge can be a challenge for vendors and Allison made it seem like a breeze. She even caught some great photos of us on the chairlift! The donuts were a big hit! The dessert was a decor focal point of our wedding and she made us and our guests very happy! We highly recommend Allison for all your bakery needs!

    Everything was great!

    Allison and crew are amazing! We opted for a small cake for cutting and a larger dessert selection and the table turned out so cute! Everyone raved about the hand pies and the cake was delicious. They are priced very reasonably, very professional and I am so glad I used them for my wedding.

    Fantastic work on short notice

    Lake Tahoe Cakes made my wedding cake and they did an amazing job! On rather short notice, about 2 months before my wedding, I reached out to Lake Tahoe Cakes and they were able to accommodate my request.

    I do not live in the South Lake Tahoe area and all our communication was done over email. Allison was very easy to work with and captured exactly what I was looking for in a cake.

    I was unable to get up to South Lake for a tasting before my wedding. The first taste of my cake was at my reception and I was extremely happy. The almond cake was light and delicate and the lavender filling was slightly sweet. The cake showed up and it looked exactly as I wanted. I highly recommend Lake Tahoe Cakes for your wedding cake needs!

    Wow! I have never had a better wedding cake in my life and not just because it was mine! Allison did an incredible job! The cake was BEAUTIFUL! Our guests went back for multiple slices because it was so amazing. Allison was a delight to work with and truly a professional. She made us feel like she genuinely cared about our day and making it perfect. Every cake flavor we had was a hit. She has a lot to choose from so we ended up with 4 - champagne cake with strawberry cream and strawberry filling, coconut cake with rum cream and pineapple filling, chocolate cake with chocolate cream and raspberry filling, and a red velvet sheet cake with cream cheese filling – and all of them were beyond fantastic! I would absolutely recommend Allison for ANY event where cake is involved!

    Allison is a true professional! She made the wedding cake of my dreams, and even personally delivered it to my mother in laws private home in Lake Tahoe where we had our wedding. The detail was stunning, but the taste was fabulous. My family and friends were full of compliments, and we can't wait to use her to make more treats for our next event! Thanks Allison
