No Cake Leftovers at this wedding!
We loved LakesCakes. Their location is out of their home which is personable and conveniently located. We loved almost every kind of cake & mouse filling that we tried. Their cake was very affordable. We compared their pricing to Costco, and as Costco price was cheaper, LakesCakes provided more layers of cake per slice, than Costco. We were able to rent the cake stand which made our cake pictures beautiful. Everyone loved the 5 different kinds of cake that we chose and we did not have any left over.We loved LakesCakes.

Very professional and know what they are doing. We loved our consultation that she gave us, it was very quick and she gave us lots of samples to choose from. I showed her a picture of exactly what we wanted and she did an amazing job recreating the picture that I showed her. All of our guests at our wedding said that our cake was the best wedding cake they had ever had at a wedding!

We had a three tier cake for our wedding. The bottom tier was chocolate strawberry swirl. The middle was chocolate and the top was carrot. The frosting was butter cream. The cake looked beautiful. It was also delicious! The carrot cake was a huge hit and I wish I had made one of the bigger tiers carrot. I would definitely recommend Lakes Cakes!We had a three tier cake for our wedding.

Our wedding cake was absolutely delicious! We were looking forward to having a slice of each flavor- we had 5 different kinds. The outside of the cake was decorated beautifully! We had white icing with fondant appliqué on the outside. Heidi and her husband really did a great job! They even created a side cake of a baseball glove holding a baseball with the Detroit "D". Thanks so much! We are looking forward to our anniversary cake! Only 11 months to go!Our wedding cake was absolutely delicious!

Lakes Cakes is a very reasonably priced bakery. While other bakeries were $3.50 and up per slice - Lakes Cakes starts at $2.60 a slice. Other places also charge you additional for design work, Lakes Cakes doesn't. That definitely makes a huge difference in price. The cakes are also delicious...tasted so much better than the designer cakes places that were $3.50-$4 a slice. Heidi was great to work with and when you go to do a cake tasting she has you taste all the cakes and different frostings and fillings -all the other bakeries make you choose 2-3 flavors and don't let you taste them all. She also made the sugar cookie favors that I had at each table setting for all my guests - they were soooo good and nice - big, thick cookies like Cookies By Design, but actually tasted like sugar cookies instead of dry nothingness. Heidi was also really flexible and willing to change designs on the cookies and cake up to a week or two before the wedding and doesn't charge anything. They also came on time as promised which is very important. I would definitely recommend Lakes Cakes to anyone for their wedding or other special event - Birthday, Graduation, Anniversary etc.Lakes Cakes is a very reasonably priced bakery.

Lakes Cakes is absolutely awesome!!! You will not find better cakes or better service for your money! Heidi was very patient while we waited to decide on our design (we're talking months here!) and could not have imagined anything more beautiful. She matched the color perfectly to our bridesmaids dresses too! B ut hte most important part was that it was DELICIOUS! We ordered about 80 extra servings for our cake and not a crumb was left behind. Everyone is still talking about the wonderful flavors and texture and they all want to have a piece of our free anniversary cake we get from them next May!

Great find….Tasted as good as it looked!
This was very last minute (the day before actually). Showed them a picture of what I was looking for with a few modifications and it was done the very next day! Tasted as good as it looked. Guests all asked where I had the cake made. Made my daughter’s 21st birthday “sweeter”.This was very last minute (the day before actually).

Perfect Wedding Cake
Lakes Cakes did an amazing job on our wedding cake. I sent Heidi a picture of what I wanted it to look like with a few modifications, and she nailed it. It looked exactly how I wanted it to look. It was beautiful. It's not just the look of the cake though. The taste of the cake is delicious. She offers a pickup tasting option which is super convenient. Lakes Cakes is more affordable than a lot of other companies that produce similar products. I definitely recommend them without hesitation.Lakes Cakes did an amazing job on our wedding cake.

Wonderful experience!
I am extremely pleased with the quality of service I received from Lakes Cakes. I sent them a photo of my desired design and number of servings needed, and they provided me with an "out the door" quote. Sampling the cakes was very convenient. I simply scheduled a sample box pickup. My fiancée and I were impressed with the samples. Other places gave us a couple tiny pieces of cake, while Lakes Cakes gave us 8 cupcake sized pieces of cake and then some mousses and things.

We had two wedding cakes at our wedding. One regular one and one gluten and dairy free cake, which was quite a challenge. Lakes Cakes did an amazing job. The taste was great and they looked amazing. We loved their butter cream.
I can highly recommend Lakes Cakes.

Lakes Cakes was everything we could have hoped for in a cake provider. They provided a tasting box customized with the flavors which had already been decided, that remained excellent across three flights and the several days between my wife's initial tasting and my own. They were helpful trying to work within our budget, followed our particular requests for a naked style cake with minimal frosting perfectly, and were flexible in their delivery to ensure neither of us had to worry about the cake after the initial order. I could not recommend them highly enough.Lakes Cakes was everything we could have hoped for in a cake provider.

This company was fantastic to work with. I called Lakes Cake less than thirty days prior to the wedding with a plea for help. Gregory and Heidi were so accommodating to make sure that they were able to create and deliver a cake that was absolutely stunning. So many guests commented how beautiful the cake looked. I can honestly say that there was more than enough cake with very little left because everyone wanted to take it home. I would without a doubt use Lakes Cakes again and would highly recommend anyone else to do the same.This company was fantastic to work with.

Heidi was a joy to work with from start to finish! The private tasting takes place in her beautiful home, and she has so many wonderful flavors, it was hard to pick! She was always available and responded quickly when we had any questions, and was very communicative leading up in the last few weeks before the wedding. We received so many compliments on the cake all evening. We couldn't of been happier! IHeidi was a joy to work with from start to finish!
