    Perfect! Very pleased

    We had a four tier cake made and it came out perfect! Cheryl did an excellent job and blew our minds with her work. Definitely worth the price and gave out cake as our parting gift on the way out. Definitely reccommend!

    The Cake Destination's reply:

    Thank you Suzie & Devon, thank you as well for making it happen! You were just the most wonderful couple to work with!
    I too was so happy w/ the cake, gosh it matched the dresses perfectly! Quite a major accomplishment considering we only met at the tasting!
    We wish you a lifetime of happiness together & always!
    Love & hugs,
    Cheryl & Leo

    Beautiful and delicious cakes!

    Cheryl is the best. We live in Georgia and she sent several cakes overnight for us to taste. They were all so delicious that it was difficult to make a decision. She is very detailed with her designs. Both cakes were so beautiful and moist! Thank you Cheryl for an awesome experience!

    The Cake Destination's reply:

    Oh Lisa, thank you for such a glowing review! You were a wonderful bride, so easy to please, so precise, knew exactly what you wanted from me & sweet lady that is such a huge help.
    I always will remember just how wonderful you were too! Just wish we would have been able to meet one another, day of is just so difficult as there is so much on everyone's plate!
    Again, we wish you a lifetime of happiness,
    Lots of love & virtual hugs,
    Cheryl & Leo

    Amazing Experience & Wedding Cake

    Cheryl is a complete dream to work with, you can tell right off the bat from talking with her that she genuinely cares about you and what you are looking for in your wedding cake! She made our whole experience from cake and dessert tastings to finalizing decisions SO much fun and wish I could do it all over again with her. Our wedding cake and desserts were incredible our guests loved our assortment, they are just too good! Her chocolate shortbread cookies and cupcakes are DIVINE. She added a little personal touch with succulents from her garden which just added to our wonderful experience. Do not hesitate to book her, she truly cares about you and every detail! The sweetest woman you will ever meet!

    Amazing and delicious!

    We booked Cheryl to provide a massive dessert table for our 250 guests at our wedding. From the very start, Cheryl was amazing! We are based in Colorado and Cheryl mailed us samples of her cakes and desserts so we could plan from afar. Not only were her desserts amazing, but she goes above and beyond for her clients which made planning with her super fun. She has great ideas and we put together a fantastic plan for our dessert table. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our November 2020 wedding due to COVID, but Cheryl was fantastic and we plan to order desserts from her each time we visit the panhandle!

    Wedding Cake

    Cheryl is one of the sweetest individuals that i have every met! She made picking out a wedding cake so much fun. Since we were a destination wedding, she happily shipped us samples to try. Picking the flavors was harder than I thought! Could not have picked a better person to bake this cake for my wedding.

    The Cake Destination's reply:

    Oh Danielle, this is just the nicest review ever, we so thank you!
    Hugs & congrats again to both you & Nick!

    Such a wonderful experience

    Wow, the desserts from The Cake Destination are some of the best I’ve had. Seriously! Cheryl is a sweetheart to work with and has so many good options to choose from. We went went an assortment of desserts and a small cake for our wedding, and they flew off the displays! We received many compliments on how delicious all of the sweets were. You won’t regret working with Cheryl :)

    Amazing, Flexible, Fun,

    Cheryl with Cake destination was a pleasure to work with. She was around for me to text with ideas and often shared some of her work prior to me deciding on our wedding cakes. The cake tasted amazing at the trial and can’t wait for the wedding day to see her wonderful creations.

    The perfect cake!

    Don’t look anywhere else! Cheryl is your cake lady! She has a vast variety of flavors to choose from and all of them are amazing. We never thought we were going to choose piña colada cake for our wedding but omg it is amazing. I shared with her all my ideas of what I wanted and it turned out perfect! Amazing cake, amazing flavors!!!! Delivery on time and will definitely will hire her again for my cake needs. Everyone couldn’t stop raving about how good the cake was and even went back for seconds!!! Thank you, Cheryl! You’re the best!

    Delicious and Beautiful Wedding Cake!

    We loved our wedding cake and the process was so easy! She sends samples in the mail for you to try if you're from out of town. She's super sweet, and does a beautiful job.

    The Cake Destination's reply:

    Ah thank you Laci, hope you are doing well. so hard to believe that you & Ben will be having your 1st anniversary in a few weeks it is almost here! Hope you enjoy your cake!!!
    Love & hugs,

    Delicious and Beautiful

    Cheryl did an amazing job the cake looked and tasted amazing! I found her and coordinated with her through Sunquest cruises, about a year before the wedding and I was halfway across the country but Cheryl still did an outstanding job. She overnight-ed samples of cake for my then Fiance (now husband) to try so we could properly choose the right flavors. I don't know how but the cake was amazing every sample and I wish I had more, but we ended up choosing key lime and decadent chocolate because its a Florida wedding! The cake tasted amazing and looked gorgeous. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic cake to make their big day!!

    The Cake Destination's reply:

    Dear Chloe
    Thank you for such a beautiful review. The most wonderful part of your wedding day for us was actually getting to meet you on board the Solaris. I had so hopped we would be setting up during the time you were coming on just to get to meet my sweet bride! You looked so beautiful day of! And the cake turned out amazing w/ the tropical flowers, I just love Birds of Paradise & the Orchids, it was so awesome!
    We wish you and Gabriel a lifetime of happiness & blessings.
    Love & hugs and the Happiest of the New Year!
    Cheryl

    Hire the cake destination now

    CHERYL IS AMAZING. She goes above and beyond for her customers!! Our minds were blown when we went to do the tasting and we got to choose from 15 DIFFERENT CAKE FLAVORS!! We ended up with Toasted Coconut, Key Lime, and Godiva White Chocolate. SO SO GOOD. For our desserts we had an awesome spread of magic cookie bars, assorted macaroons, Rice Krispie treats, Italian wedding cookies, cream puffs, and white chocolate covered strawberries. All of our favorite things! Believe it or not it was all devoured by our group of 110 people!!! I've never heard wedding guests rave so much about cake! She worked with me and our florist to get the perfect cake design and to also decorate the dessert table as well. I cannot thank her enough for all of her work in making this day perfect for us! Hire her IMMEDIATELY.

    Extraordinary!!

    We met Cheryl in March of 2018 while visiting with vendors in the area in preparation for our destination wedding on October 9, 2018. She was a breath of fresh air after meeting with another, rather stuffy, vendor! Cheryl was kind and open and so excited to make all our dreams come true! She listened to our ideas and got to work creating the wedding cake of our dreams. The day of our rehearsal finally arrived and we were told that we would not be able to have our ceremony the next day as planned, as Hurricane Michael would make landfall in 36 hours. Unbeknownst to us, Cheryl had already completed our cake, but our planner did not notify her that we already had our ceremony 24 hours early due to the mandatory evacuation, so we never got to see or taste our cake :( Fast forward to February of 2019, my wife and I were planning a trip down to Santa Rosa Beach in April to have some photos taken by our original photographer. I reached out to Cheryl on the off chance she would be able to make a small cake for us. She was so excited to hear from me and couldn't believe all that had happened. She not only made the most beautiful and delicious cake we have ever had (Key Lime!), she also made yummy cupcakes in our second flavor (Godiva white chocolate) so we could taste that as well! (And can you believe the detail in her gum paste lily?! She's seriously incredible!) We didn't have a florist this time around, so Cheryl reached out to her vendors and found the only florist in the area that had orchids from Hawaii! I cried tears of absolute joy and gave Cheryl a huge hug when I saw her because she truly made a traumatic experience so much better. She did not have to do any of this, but she did it out of the kindness of her heart. Thank you, Cheryl, for making our day (the first AND second time!)!! We would recommend Cheryl and The Cake Destination to EVERYONE!!

    You MUST hire Cheryl to be your cake lady! She is so easy to work with and thorough and detailed. I was pleasantly surprised that she mailed about 2 dozen delicious samples to Ohio as I was planning a destination wedding. Our cake looked like something from Cake Wars! It was beautiful and tasty and exactly what I had envisioned. I had to attach a picture of our cake so you can see how awesome it was...I didn't want to cut it when the time came. Thanks again, Cheryl!

    I don't even know where to start! Cheryl is the cool aunt we all wish we had! She is amazing at every aspect!!! I am from Buffalo New York so just like everyone else planning a destination wedding it is very hard to pick vendors from so far away. I will say with full honesty that I was beyond pleased in my choice with The Cake Destination that I want everyone getting married in Destin to book with her! I assure you you will not be disappointed! My cupcakes and cakes came out just like the pictures and tasted even better! (you really can taste the love in the cake!)

    Thank you Cheryl from the bottom of our hearts!!!

    I just wanted to thank Cheryl so so much for the absolutely PERFECT cake! It was everything I could have wanted in a wedding cake. The absolute most beautiful cake I've ever seen! Not to mention absolutely delicious. My husband and I were so proud to serve it at our wedding and I can't tell you how amazing it looked with the adorable little flamingos on top! Thank you so so much for going above and beyond for our special day.

    I loved working with The Cake Destination and Cheryl. She was super sweet from the beginning, the whole process was super easy and I absolutely loved my cake!! I got nervous a few weeks before the wedding and second guess my choice and Cheryl was patient with me and she promised my cake was going to be beautiful and I couldn't be any happier with the results! I highly recommend The Cake Destination! you wont regret it! Thank you Cheryl :D

    Cheryl at the Cake Destination was a joy to work with. From our first phone call when she helped us completely design our perfect cake, to the moment we enjoyed it at the wedding, our experience with Cheryl was wonderful. She is so incredibly sweet and she even sent us samples of all of her flavors in the mail so we could find our favorites! Both the wedding cake and the groom’s cake turned out beautifully and tasted amazing. All of our guests were extremely pleased and couldn’t stop talking about the cakes. We would definitely choose her if we were to do it all again and would highly recommend the Cake Destination to anyone who is getting married in the Destin area.

    If you are getting married in the Destin area, you need to get your cake from Cheryl and The Cake Destination! Cheryl met with my family and me early on in the process so we could taste many different flavors of cake and they were all so flavorful and delicious! We narrowed it down to three flavors and they were just as delicious on my wedding day as they were at the tasting! Cheryl worked to make the design I wanted come to life even though she hadn’t ever done one exactly as I wanted before. She also made gorgeous sugar hibiscus flowers that cascaded down the cake and she worked tirelessly to get the flowers the color I wanted even though it wasn’t easy! I can’t stress enough how amazing she was to work with and how delicious her cakes are! She even made fillings to put on the side so that guests could add a little more flavor only if they wanted to! We tasted with three different bakers and she was by far the best!
