    Great cake and even better to work with

    We are so glad we chose Once in a Blue Moon Bakery for our wedding cake! They were super easy and flexible to work with, and made sure we got exactly what we wanted for our wedding day! We had three different flavors and they were all delicious and super fresh. Loved it!

    Beautiful and yummy

    We enjoyed that the tasting box was a take-home, so we could decide in the comfort of our own home. Got a chance to speak directly with the owner to discuss vision. Cake was beautiful and exactly as we discussed.

    Hire them!

    Oh my goodness, Once in a Blue Moon provided us the best wedding cake ever!! The cake turned out so beautifully, my husband and I couldn't stop talking about the cake the day after our wedding! They got all the details we wanted perfectly, even modeling our two cats as our cake toppers! Not only was it beautiful, but it was DELICIOUS! I'm so excited to have our one-year anniversary cake with them!!

    Tasty Cake!

    Once in a Blue Moon was such an easy bakery to work with and the cake was SO TASTY on wedding night and looked beautiful. We also decided to freeze the top layer and it froze so well - I dug into it yesterday as we just got back from our honeymoon and it is still delicious. I will continue to buy cakes from the bakery and would definitely recommend it to anyone for their wedding.

    Excellence at every step!

    Once In A Blue Moon did an excellent job with our wedding cake! They were so nice and accommodating throughout the entire process, from vision to execution to delivery at our wedding venue. We showed them photos of what we were thinking and they pulled it off wonderfully. I wish I still had the original inspiration photo we showed. We would definitely recommend their wedding cake services and truly can't thank them enough!

    Excellent result with difficult order!

    At our 12 person wedding we had a gluten allergy, tree nut allergy and a vegan.

    We worked with Blue Moon to ensure everyone would be happy - which we all were! The cake, two layers - chocolate raspberry mousse on top then lemon mousse on the bottom layer really, really hit the spot!

    A couple vegan cupcakes and everyone got their sugar fix during the reception.

    The bakery was easy to work with, made several helpful suggestions and everything was ready right on time.

    Loved our cake!

    The cake was delicious and beautiful, everyone was extremely easy to work with, and you get a free cake on your anniversary! We went with yellow cake, tiramisu filling, and vanilla buttercream for one layer and chocolate cake, raspberry mousse, and almond buttercream for the other. Still drooling thinking about it!

    The best wedding cake

    Absolutely delicious, hands down the best wedding cake I've ever had! Once in A Blue Moon was extremely easy to work with - the tasting was fantastic, they made it hard to narrow down to just a few flavors. For the design, we loved one of the cakes they had done in the past and just had a small tweak, and they nailed it. They also decorated the cake with fresh flowers from our florist which was a beautiful touch. All in all, we had a wonderful experience with them and would highly recommend!

    Delicious!

    We got our wedding cake from Once in A Blue Moon Bakery and it was SO GOOD. I loved their take-home cake testing! You can do it on your own time and all the flavors were amazing. We went with chocolate cake and raspberry filling. The meeting to set up the cake was super easy. They had pictures of different styles they do. Very accommodating and professional. Highly recommend!

    Amazing Cupcakes and Wedding Cake

    Once In a Blue Moon made the wedding cake and cupcakes for our wedding this past weekend and it was incredible. We got so many compliments on the cake and desserts. Delivery was very flexible and they were happy to work with our coordinator on times. The cake itself was gorgeous. We really could not have asked for anything better. We would highly recommend the bakery for any special events or just to get yourself a treat. Best cakes in Cary.

    Best Wedding Cake

    We had a great experience getting our wedding cake here! My mom and I went in for a complimentary consultation which was very informative, and got to custom design the cake. It tasted delicious and as expected and was decorated exactly how we wanted it, even though we requested a custom flavor. It was a great experience from start to finish and I would recommend them to anyone needing a wedding cake!

    Delicious and Beautiful Cakes!

    Planning a wedding from a distance is a little bit nerve-wracking, but after speaking with Once in a Blue Moon we knew we had found the bakery for us. Although we couldn’t do a tasting, we spoke with the owner who helped us decide on flavors, size, and style. The pricing was also very transparent and exactly what they said it would be, which I appreciated. I communicated to them what I imagined for the cake and sent a few pictures and they did the rest! The cake arrived on our wedding day on time and was even more beautiful than I imagined! They did an incredible job and it was delicious too! We had plenty of cake and so a lot of people got seconds and said how much they liked it. It was a wonderful part of our wedding day!

    The cake was absolutely gorgeous and tasted delicious!

    Once in a Blue Moon has been my favorite bakery for over 20 years and I knew I wanted them to create our wedding cake. They created a sample box for us to try all the cake, icing, and filling options at home (due to COVID) and set up a video call for us to go over our thoughts and plan the cake! We requested a Carolina blue three tier cake with white piping with no other requests. They were so excited for artistic freedom and they 1000% executed. The cake was absolutely gorgeous and tasted delicious! We can’t wait for our one year anniversary!!

    Delicious and beautiful wedding cake!

    Once in a blue moon bakery was great!! We had a three tier wedding cake, and each layer was delicious. The sampler we got from them was great and let us try each kind of cake, filling, and icing. We did one layer of carrot cake, one layer of vanilla with raspberry filling, and another layer of chocolate with chocolate raspberry filling. The cake was beautiful and delicious! We are big dessert people, so finding a cake that tasted great was our main priority. Highly recommend once in a blue moon for your wedding cake!
