Gail is amazing and her cakes are too!!
Gail baked our wedding cake and it looked just like the pictures and tasted amazing couldn’t of asked for more. She also baked and delivered a grooms cake to our rehearsal dinner the night before. It was a Jamaican rum cake. She made it just like grandma would have even soaking the fruit in the special Jamaican rum my husband requested. Thank you so much GailGail baked our wedding cake and it looked just like the pictures and tasted amazing couldn’t of asked for more.

Best cake around!
First off Gail is sweetest and easiest person to work with and her cakes are absolutely amazing! Hands down best baker in Sarasota and so extremely personable. Not only did I hire her for my wedding cake but also my daughters birthday cake and will continue to use her for any future occasion where a cake is needed.First off Gail is sweetest and easiest person to work with and her cakes are absolutely amazing!

Wonderful Experience
What a fun experience we had working with Gail Thompson of Thompson's Cakes. Gail baked and decorated two lovely and equally delicious cakes for our little beach wedding on 12-20-2020. Our guests were happy and so were we.
My wife's family has enjoyed Siesta Key Beach at Christmas for the last 35 years, so we will be ordering an Anniversary cake from Thompson's Cakes each year. She was an absolute pleasure to work with.What a fun experience we had working with Gail Thompson of Thompson's Cakes.

Gail is the BEST. Seriously, she is the kindest, sweetest woman who worked with us for our wedding cake. Her cakes, pies, cupcakes, and basically anything she makes are absolutely delicious. It was so much fun working with her, too. She even picked up the flowers for our wedding cake and decorated it. If you are looking for a great tasting, beautiful wedding cake with an affordable price tag, talk to Gail because she is a one-of-a-kind!Gail is the BEST.

We live in Illinois but my daughter wanted to get married at Siesta Key, Florida. Everyone we found was online, and we went by reviews. Gail was awesome to work with! I spoke with her by phone and through email. My daughter had a picture of a cake which we emailed, and Gail did it precisely. The cake was beautifully decorated, and deliciously moist and tasty! She delivered it to the venue, and all for a very reasonable price. I did wedding cakes for years in Houston, and feel I'm pretty much an expert, and I would recommend her to anyone that asks!We live in Illinois but my daughter wanted to get married at Siesta Key, Florida.

Gail was so wonderful to work with and she produced such a marvelous cake for our wedding reception. Since it was a destination wedding I wasn't able to taste anything prior and I just had to trust things would turn out great. The restaurant where we had our reception was in awe as well and took many pictures of it before we even got there. It was absolutely marvelous and I even managed to take the top tier back with me to Chicago.Gail was so wonderful to work with and she produced such a marvelous cake for our wedding reception.

We love Gail Thompson and Thompson cakes! We used Gail for our daughter's shower cake, groom's cake, wedding cake and cookie table. Her caring attitude and genuine interest in our family was so appreciated, not to mention her cakes and cookies are delicious. Not only do her cookies and cakes taste great, they look amazing too. She designed a cake for my son in law's Alma mater that was perfect. The wedding cake was stunning, as she designed it from a picture my daughter provided. We are so pleased with everything Gail did and highly recommend her for weddings or any other occasions.We love Gail Thompson and Thompson cakes!

Gail was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very thorough during our consultation to ensure our needs/wants were met. She was accessible and flexible when our request needed to be modified due to a change in guest count. Her creativity is phenomenal, and the cupcakes/cake she made tied into our wedding theme perfectly. I would highly suggest Gail to any future brides, as she exceeded my expectations regarding our wedding cake/cupcakes!

Gail is an absolute delight to work with and her cakes are incredibly delicious. She does her cake tastings in a slightly unconventional way, (she sends it home with you!) so that you and your whole family can try the flavors and so you can stuff your face with a little less guilt :) My fiancé (now husband) and I chose the salted caramel cake with a fudge filling for our December wedding. We also decided to do a dummy-cake to decorate and served sheet cake to our guests to speed up service and to save some money. Everyone absolutely loved the cake and the dummy-cake allowed us to put our themed non-food safe decorations directly on the cake to achieve the look we really wanted.Gail is an absolute delight to work with and her cakes are incredibly delicious.

I really enjoyed working with Gail @ Thompson Cakes. She was unbelievably kind and helpful. I had no clue where to even start with my wedding cake, but she was more than willing to help with every step of the way. We enjoyed her tastings so much that we decided to use her services for our rehearsal dinner and wedding. She is so easy to work with and a pure joy to do business with.

Well my husband says she's awesome, fun and a foody! Gail transformed someone who wasn't much interested in the cake into someone who anxiously awaited seeing (and tasting) the wedding cake. We were treated like family as we sat at the kitchen table where her children grew up and discussed cakes. She truly loves what she does and desires to make the perfect cake for you.
