    Our wedding cake was so elegant, beautiful and DELICIOUS. I had a picture of a cake that I wanted and Amanda was able to make it our own by suggesting a few details and adding flowers that coordinated with the rest of the wedding. I live abroad and Amanda was so accommodating with arranging appointments for when I was in the States. She quickly responded to any questions asked via email. We also ordered chocolate covered strawberries for the wedding from Bake Works. Amanda was very honest and told us she would only do them if she could find a decent quality of strawberries (our wedding was Sept. 30th). Luckily, we were able to have the strawberries and our guests loved them! We cannot wait to eat the top layer of our cake for our first anniversary!!! Thank you, Bake Works!!!

    Not much of a review to post other than saying everyone at our wedding LOVED our cake!!! Even the vegan cupcakes were a huge hit for our vegan guest too! Well done and delicious!

    Beautiful Cake, Equally Delicious

    Amanda and the team at The Bake Works gave us a truly magnificent wedding cake. Guests and staff came up to us numerous times to tell us how beautiful the cake was, and we received even more compliments after our guests tasted it! We were able to select two different flavors for the cake--black and white (with vanilla buttercream) and almond cake (with vanilla pastry cream) and it was fun to hear which option are guests were selecting... though I think my husband's choice (the almond cake) won in the end! The wedding cake was perhaps even more important to me than the dress, and I could not have been happier with the final result. The Bake Works even crafted a lovely birthday cake for my aunt (as it was also her birthday!), covered in buttercream rosettes. Both cakes exceeded our expectations, and the cake cutting/birthday surprise was easily one of the highlights of the night!

    Our wedding cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious. They had no problems with completely customizing our design and we had two totally different flavors as well! They also made a groom's cake for my husband which was absolutely perfect. Definitely recommend!

    Sweet, Perfectly portioned Wedding Cake!

    I was so happy to have BakeWorks make our wedding cake! They worked with us for smaller than their typical wedding cake order and had delivery included as well so it would arrive to our Cape May venue safe and sound! They nailed our "heavy skim" naked cake style with cascading flowers. It was so delicious!! Definitely recommend!

    We recently used The Bake Works for our wedding day, and our cake was absolutely perfect! Not only was it DELICIOUS, it looked beautiful and exactly how we pictured. We had done a tasting about 6-7 months in advance of our big day, and had a great time tasting all the cakes and learning about our options decoration-wise.

    The Bake Works was great to work with - probably the easiest vendor in terms of not needing to do too much on our end -- just made sure they knew what we wanted and they delivered an amazing product! Highly recommend. We worked with Amanda, and she was great. Can’t say enough about their great work and delicious cake! Thanks again for everything -- our guests loved it!

    I'm going to keep this short and sweet...this was literally the best wedding cake I've ever had! And yes it is my wedding, so I AM biased, but this was the sentiment of every guest we spoke to about the cake.

    So if you are looking for a GREAT tasting cake, PLUS, gorgeous display quality...Amanda and her staff at The Bake Works is where you should run to! And after the generous tasting, you'll need to run home as well.

    Seriously, I cannot say enough about Amanda and The Bake Works. The cake literally was delicious, stylishly fitting for our theme and taste, and Amanda and her team were incredibly fun and professional to deal with. Definitely the highlight of any vendor visit that my now husband and in-laws went on.

    The Bake Works worked with our venue (Bonnet Island Estate), so a basic cake was included. Due to planning from afar, we were unable to have a tasting, but Amanada was great to work with and had advised us of the most popular flavors when we were trying to decide. We bounced back e-mails of pictures of cakes they had previously made, and images from pinterest that I liked. We had decided on a simple buttercream cake with lines around the edges and dots on each layer. I didn't see the cake till the day of in our reception room, but it was EXACTLY what we were looking for. Simple, classic and beautiful. The first time we tasted it was when we cut the cake but it was delicious (all of our guests raved about it as well!) We are looking forward to thawing out the top layer on our one year and enjoying the cake again!

    You can have your cake and eat it too!

    The Bake Works was part of our package at The Ashford Estate, but Amanda and the amazing sweets she's able to create ended up being so much more than that. We ended up going with chocolate and vanilla flavors, but that's only because it was the most flavorful vanilla and chocolate we've ever tasted. The buttercream was so delicious, not too sweet, and not too heavy. Our cake and cupcakes were a hit! Thank you for making our vision possible.

    This vendor already worked with our venue, The Smithville Inn. We wanted to go a little above and beyond the basic cake to have a cake themed to be a birch bark tree to compliment our fall theming. The cake tasting was an easy process and they took care of everything from there on out. The cake was more beautiful than we ever could have imagined and every one of our guests were raving about how it was the prettiest and best TASTING wedding cake they'd ever had! I also had them make a cake for my husband as a surprise groom's cake for the rehearsal dinner and it was perfect.

    The Bake Works did our wedding cake and a grooms cake. We had a fantastic experience with Amanda from The Bake Works! She is professional, friendly, and very accommodating! We met and discussed various cake and icing flavor options, and she was able to take my visions for the wedding cake and bring them to life! She will email back and forth with you as many times as it takes to get he details right. The cake looked stunning, but most importantly it tasted fantastic! Even our guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was! I also had a grooms cake made for the rehearsal dinner which was a BIG hit! Amanda made us a square Jeep cake for my groom complete with a grill, Jeep logo, and wedding date license plate, it was fantastic! I HIGHLY recommend this vendor, you will not be disappointed!

    Amazing cake and cupcakes!

    The Bake Works was included with my catering package so I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect. I was quickly assured at our tasting. Their cakes were to die for! We had a small cutting cake and cupcakes for our wedding and there was not a single flavor that didn’t wow the guests. They are still raving over them! The cakes were beautiful, tasty and perfectly completely my vision for my cake table. I highly recommend the Bake Works!

    Wow! What an absolutely delicious and beautiful cake The Bake Works made for my wedding! Not only was the cake so delicious and so beautiful, but the staff at The Bake Works was great and helpful and made my vision come to life. I ordered two tiers in carrot cake and two tiers in almond cake with chocolate ganache and raspberry filling - and my guests STILL cannot stop raving about how delicious it was! And my wedding was one month ago! Really, it was the best "wedding cake" that I have ever eaten, and many of my guests have said that, as well. I HIGHLY recommend The Bake Works!

    Our wedding cake was absolutely beautiful. It was vanilla, with butter cream icing and chocolate/raspberry ganache in the center. It was definitely one of the best cakes I have ever tasted.

    Beginning in 2009, Bake Works provided our daughter's engagement cake, wedding cake(s) and just recently, first baby shower cakes and all three occasions proved that The Bake Works is the finest bakery in all south Jersey. I would not go anywhere else for cake & baked goods. I'm a 45+ years baker (just for family) and theirs is the first cake I actually rave about - it's delicious, moist, full of flavor & simply the best! You can't go wrong with The Bake Works & you'll never find anything to compare to these baked goods! I highly recommend to any and all who are looking for a top-of-the-line product! very consistent too.

    It was "just a cake" until I tasted it

    My husband and I never planned to get a wedding cake (we felt it was totally unnecessary, to be honest), but we found out that our venue had a relationship with The Bake Works and that a cake would be included. BOY ARE WE GLAD IT WAS! They absolutely exceeded all of our expectations of what a wedding cake could be. We opted for the "spice cake" flavor — an upgrade that was well worth it. We had a number of dessert options for our guests, but all anyone could rave about was the cake. As for the design, they followed our instructions to a T. It was elegant and absolutely delicious. I'll never underestimate wedding cake again, now that I know how fantastic it can be.
