    The jordan wedding

    I wanted to say i enjoyed the taste and the creativity of our cake , she was able to get us the flavors we wanted and it wasn't a hard cake . It did not melt or fall apart. The gold drip was my favorite because we love gold and it was perfected. The icing was tasty and the cake was moist. She had came through and we was last minute but she executed the cake. Definitely recommend her and when my mother in law happy we all happy 🤣. Thank you so much

    We live in FL currently, got married in OH - great communication!

    We had LaDawn from Sweets by Ladawn to do our wedding cake and cakes for our guests. It was so good we got enough cake for more than 150 people and had 100 people come to our wedding having no cake left over! Just a little cake from our own personal wedding cake - not for the guests. 10/10 recommend!!!! Be ready for another review by us for our baby shower in the future, cause Sweets by Ladawn will for sure be the one making our cakes/cupcakes and any sweets possible!!!

    Ladawn delivered a simple yet elegant cake for our very small wedding. It was exactly what we wanted.

    We asked for a small, but tiered cake for our very small wedding (under 20 people). LaDawn delivered one designed simply (as we requested) with room for us to add the flowers we wanted. The end result was a stunning cake that oh by the way tasted delicious (chocolate and yellow). The chocolate tasted like a Hostess Suzy Q which is a good thing in my book.

    Fantastic cakes and super responsive!

    We used Sweets by LaDawn for our wedding in May and we were extremely happy with the cake. It looked beautiful and tasted great as well. We also have to give her props for making a fantastic gluten free cake for our gluten sensitive guests. She was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. We have used her as well for our birthday cakes and we are always happy.

    Best cake and price!

    I booked Sweets by Ladawn for my wedding on 8/26/22. We opted for cupcakes and a small round cake to cut. My guests raved about the flavors options we had. Lemon cake with blueberry filling, white cake with strawberry filling, and chocolate cake with raspberry filling. All had a delicious white buttercream frosting. My cake to cut was the best- it’s the one they provide samples of at the Cincinnati wedding show. Almond cake with raspberry filling and their white buttercream frosting. The cake was decorated exactly like my vision. From the gold flecks to the flowers and cake topper, it was perfect. Additionally we were able to rent the cupcake stand, she delivered and set up for us.

    The Best Cake We Have Ever Had

    LaDawn was absolutely amazing to work with! We were sold by her product the minute we did a taste test. She is easy to work with and took our ideas and made it a reality. The cake was delicious and beautiful. We still get comments about how good it was from out guests months later! She made us forever customers! There is no better cake in the Greater Cincinnati area. My wife who is not a huge cake lover so we had LaDawn great a dessert bar filled with cookies, snickerdoodle bars, smores bars, and lemon bars! everything she makes is amazing. But regardless of the dessert bar, my wife loved her cake!

    Absolutely amazing

    It is honestly hard to put into words how incredible Sweets by LaDawn is! We utilized this bakery for our wedding cake and desserts and everything was phenomenal - Our guests were absolutely raving about how delicious every single item was. LaDawn and her team went out of their way to meet dietary restrictions and also incorporate culturally unique food for our wedding. My husband and I also love to stop by the bakery often and load up on treats to enjoy. I cannot recommend Sweets by LaDawn enough!

    Cake was the bomb!

    Sweets by LaDawn came highly recommended so we knew we had to try it out. It was important to us to support minority owned businesses for our wedding. Ms. LaDawn was a pleasure to work with in helping us design our wedding cake. She was professional, knowledgeable and her cakes were affordable. The tasting were all we needed to sign on the dotted lines. The tastings were huge and we had enough to share with family. All delicious. Our cake was simple and beautiful just as we asked. It was the talk of the night! We highly recommend Sweets by LaDawn bakery for any event.

    We wanted a small intimate wedding and Ms. LaDawn was very helpful in making sure we didn’t order too much cake for our small event. We were very nervous going into this process but she reassured us and helped us through the process with grace and good energy. We will be back!

    Great people and cupcakes!

    Thank you Ladawn for helping to make our wedding amazing! Your cupcakes were a total hit. From our first time going into the store to our tasting to the big day, you all were so caring, kind and courteous (and the options you provided us with were so tasty!) Y’all provided us with an amazing experience. We went with a “death by chocolate” (chocolate toffee cake, chocolate bavarian cream and chocolate buttercream) concept for one set of cupcakes and, that absolutely knocked the socks off of our guests. When I say that we have dreams about these cupcakes… LaDawn was absolutely excellent- especially for those looking to support a locally owned business. They were definitely the right choice for us!

    Kuhn Wedding

    LaDawn was super great and friendly to work with. She offers a wide variety of cakes that all taste amazing. We got our tasting cakes and they were so good it was hard to choose one for our wedding. When we did choose the flavor, we had to sit down meeting at her bakery in Cincinnati Ohio and she went over all details about everything we would possibly want for a cake. We brought pictures for references and she made our vision come to life in cake form. Prices are very reasonable and we absolutely loved working with her. Thank you for making our day very special.

    Great experience!

    We found Dawn at the bridal expo last year, and what a find! Aside from being a fantastic ambassador for her business, she was handing out samples of the most delicious cake we have ever tasted. We signed a contract right then! The cake was absolutely gorgeous, made exactly as we had designed it, delivered timely, set up beautifully, and tasted divine! People raved about it! I cannot recommend her artistic and delicious talent enough! Don't sleep on the white almond cake with raspberry filling. It is one of the best sweets you will EVER eat!

    Wonderful Wedding Cake and Cupcakes

    LaDawn did an amazing job with our wedding cake and cupcakes and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! She was so easy to communicate with and took the time to make sure she knew exactly what we wanted. She even came and set everything up the day of the wedding. Thank you for everything, LaDawn!!

    Excellent & "beyond delicious!"

    Met LaDawn at the bridal expo in winter of '22 and was 💯% confident that she was the one for us! She made us feel relaxed,stress-free in what she could provide for us and on our big day we were exuberant at the site of our cake! Well by the time we got to eat the cake all that was left was 2 thin slices due to our guests over-doing it? We definitely will recommend LaDawn to everyone who desires a beautiful, delicious cake and professionalism!

    Amazing taste and experience

    Got one cake for us to cut and cupcakes for guests. Everyone loved them and I think they were all gone by the end of the night. They looked amazing and tasted amazing. The process of working with them was simple and smooth making it something I knew I didn't have to stress about for the wedding. I highly recommend using them. The best cake I have ever had.!

    Cake and service is fabulous

    Ms. Ladawn did such a wonderful job on our wedding cake. The cake was absolutely delicious and our cake was eaten so quickly by guests. We had scheduled a cake tasting with her initially where she allowed us to taste quite a few flavors. And then she did a great job working with us to select our design. I gave her decorative freedom with the flowers and she did a gr at job. Highly recommend.

    Wonderful Wedding Cake

    We got our wedding cake from LaDawn for our August wedding last year. We met her at a bridal expo and it was the first cake my husband and I actually agreed on, it was so good we knew right away we found the cake we wanted and the right place to get it from! We met with her to plan it out (and ordered a few extra treats while there because all of her stuff is amazing) and the whole process was very easy, she had everything we needed and worked with us to stay within our budget. Overall it was a great experience and everyone loved the cake when it came to the wedding. Definitely recommend!

    Amazing Cake!

    Sweets by LaDawn make our delicious cupcakes and 3-tier cake for our wedding. Both were moist and decadent topped off with a delightful buttercream frosting. We loved it and our guests were well pleased with these treats! The quantity we were advised worked perfected for our guest count. Thank you!
