    Dream Cake

    Paula made us the most amazing wedding cake. She is a dream to work with we highly recommend her! Our cake was absolutely beautiful and was SO delicious and fresh - our guests couldn't stop talking about it. We are so grateful!

    We highly recommend Windflower cakes if you’re getting married in the Hood River area.

    Paula knocked our cake out of the park. Our tasting was easy – her cakes were delicious and really blew us away. She was able to execute our exact vision and worked with different ideas we tossed around early on about what we wanted our wedding cake to look like as well as flavor combinations.

    When it came to the actual cake, she nailed it! It was truly the perfect amount and very little was left which is a true testament to her cakes. Her chocolate was top notch and the marionberry almond cake was perfection – tasted even better on our wedding day than at our tasting. We highly recommend Windflower cakes if you’re getting married in the Hood River area.

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    OMG, you are too kind! I am so happy you were delighted with the cake as well as your guests. I had so much fun working with you and helping make your wedding dessert dreams come true. xoxo

    Delicious Cake

    So happy with how our cake from Windflower turned out. We wanted a Naked Cake that would be decorated with flowers and Paula delivered exactly that! We went with blueberry/lemon and had so many comments from guests about how good it was!

    Best Tasting Wedding Cake Ever!

    Windflower Cakes made our incredibly delicious wedding cake! Several of our guests said it was the best tasting wedding cake they have ever had. Coordination of the tasting as well as delivery on the day of was handled through our caterer (Celilo) seamlessly. All of the flavors at the tasting were delicious but the lemon blueberry was to die for and we could not be happier with our final product!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Fabulous! Your kind review is so appreciated. I am delighted to hear that you and your guests enjoyed the cake so much. Best wishes for lots of love, laughter and adventures in the years ahead together.

    Best Wedding Cake EVER!

    I wish I could just feed you my wedding cake instead of writing a review, that is how amazing the cake was! The day after my wedding, my entire family stood hunched over the kitchen island eating leftover cake like complete animals. I can't wait for our one-year anniversary to eat the topper! Paula was so sweet, easy to work with, and has clearly perfected her trade.

    Delightful

    The cake you made for our intimate wedding was fantastic and the flavors make my mouth water just thinking about them! My husband and everyone at our wedding thought the cake was delicious and beautifully decorated. Thank you for making our wedding incredibly beautiful with your cake design. My husband and I were more than happy! Plus, you are delightful to work with.

    Highly recommend!

    I highly recommend Windflower Cakes! We just had our wedding and not only did our cake turn out beautiful but it tasted amazing. My husband is not a big sweets or cake person, and he enjoyed it! I also loved how flexible Paula was with some last minute changes. She was such a pleasure to work with - you won't be disappointed if you go with Windflower Cakes!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Hi Kelsey,
    It was such a pleasure to work with you! I am delighted to hear that your husband enjoyed it as well - it's one of my goals to win over 'cake cynics'! It was wonderful to be a part of helping your celebration...congratulations and best wishes for a fun and adventurous life together.

    Delicious and beautiful cake

    Our entire experience with Paula was great! She met with us at the shop that housed our florist, so it was convenient to set up back-to-back consultations since we live out of town. All of the cake options were delicious, so it was a hard choice! We went with the classic vanilla strawberry because we felt it complimented our summer BBQ wedding. We had rave reviews from our guests about the cake! Not only did it taste delicious, it was beautiful as well. Simple and lovely, exactly what we wanted!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Hi Allison,
    Thank you so much for your glowing compliments! It gives me such pleasure to know that I helped you and C celebrate your big day deliciously. It was wonderful to meet and get to know you...best wishes for your new adventures in life together!

    Beautiful and delicious

    Paula's cakes are soooo good. We got to taste a few of them and each one was delicious. The cake she made for the day of the wedding was exactly what we asked for - simple, beautiful, and delicious. My one regret is not eating more of it!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Thank you Alexis for your kind words! It was a joy making your cake to your liking and wishes. I hope your wedding day was positively dreamy! Definitely get in touch if you're back in town for an anniversary cake ;)

    World class quality in with hometown charm

    Paula was great to work with- bad winter weather kept us from making our tasting appointments multiple times, but she was always glad to reschedule. Her choices were all fantastic and very hard to choose from. The cake was delivered and set up as promised, and it was even better than the pictures. The cake was amazing and the left overs didn't last long.

    Amazing and unique experience

    All the cakes we tired were so delicious! Leading up to the wedding, Paula was extremely flexible and helpful in figuring out guest attendance and cake size. Everyone raved about the cakes saying they were the best wedding cakes they had ever tried!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Thank you so much for your review Marisa! It means so much to me to know that I helped make your day memorable and delicious. Even better knowing that it made your guests swoon too! :)

    Delicious!

    We cannot express how much we love Paula and her cakes! We love that she also uses great organic ingredients. We could not choose just one flavor, so we had 3! We especially love the lemon blueberry and vanilla berry. She is such a joy to work with, we recommend her to everyone! She is so sweet and we ended up having the perfect amount of cake! It could not have came out any better. We love using her now for all our birthday occasions- she is a family favorite! We highly recommend and look forward to working with her more!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Thanks again for your appreciation and kind words Chelsea! It's always an honor to help you celebrate. :)

    Paula was great!! She was easy to work with and has some great cake stands to pick from. The cake itself tastes amazing, so delicious and full of fresh flavor. We went with the chocolate blackberry and vanilla with lemon and blueberry. They were both so good. A lot of our guests tried both flavors and loved both of them. We even made sure to order extra to have leftover cake to freeze!! I can now attest that the frozen cake is so good!! Thanks Paula for the amazing cake!!!!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Thank you Taylor for your kind compliments! I loved working with you and P, and it was so much fun to put it all together with your custom toppers! Congratulations, again and best wishes for newlywed life!

    Beautiful, Tasty Wedding Cake and Accommodating Baker

    Paula was wonderful and convenient. It was great to work with someone local. He place was easy to get to and felt comfortable because her bakery was in her home. She offered us tea, showed us previous cakes she had made, and let us try samples. We chose vanilla with strawberry creme fraiche. There was no cake to take home, everyone loved it. It was also beautiful and simply designed as expected. Last, I enjoyed her easy going attitude. We didn't speak often, but I always felt confident she had everything handled. On the day of the wedding I was so busy I didn't get to see the cake prior. She and the florist coordinated without me to make sure Paula had nice cuts of the wedding flowers as decorations and the finished product was lovely. Thank you so much Paula for contributing to our magical day.

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Hi Whitney, I'm so glad that you were happy with my service and that I could help you celebrate deliciously!

    Best cake ever!

    I am so thankful that my husband and I chose Windflower Cakes for our wedding cake vendor. When we first met Paula she was so sweet and welcoming! I knew right off the bat I would love working with her. She was quick to respond to phone calls or emails and easy to communicate with. My husband isn’t typically a big cake fan, but we were both impressed with how delicious all of it was; it was the best cake we’ve ever tasted. Paula was great in allowing us to have two tiers in one flavor and the third tier another flavor (we both had a favorite and couldn’t choose!) When I saw our cake on our wedding day I couldn’t get over how gorgeous it looked, and everyone who ate it commented on how amazing it was. I highly recommend Windflower Cakes!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Thanks again Alicia, for your glowing review! It really was such joy working with you and your husband making your wedding day special with delicious cake! So glad you appreciate it.

    Windflower Cakes

    My husband and I absolutely loved our wedding cake! We talk about it being one of the most successful things from our wedding day. It was delicious, classy, and exactly what we wanted. Windflower Cakes was so professional and open to our ideas. I would recommend windflower to anyone!

    Paula is wonderful and her cakes are delicious! She has a nice work space out of her home that we met at for cake tasting. She's such a lovely person and we really enjoyed our time tasting and chatting with her. All of her flavors are tasty and picking what we wanted was the hardest part! Working with her was easy; she was communicative and I appreciated how intuitive her payment and scheduling systems where. She did a beautiful design in the buttercream for us and we got so many compliments on how delicious the cake was!

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    Paula was absolutely wonderful to work with -- professional, kind, accommodating and responsive. Honestly, the most difficult part of the entire process was choosing which flavors we wanted from her delicious menu. You can tell that she takes such pride in her work (rightly so, as her cakes are beautiful AND delicious) and always works to incorporate the highest-quality, freshest ingredients into her cakes. When we went for our cake tasting, I mentioned that my dad was sad he would be missing the tasting, and Paula went to the freezer and gave us a sample to take with us to give to my dad! Moreover, she is creative and flexible and willing to help in any way possible. We spent a full thirty minutes just talking about the different tier options for the cake, and she was so patient. Plus, at the end of the day, her cakes are absolutely delicious -- we still have guests tell us about how much they enjoyed it! I would absolutely recommend Paula to anyone.

    Windflower Cakes's reply:

    It was fabulous making your cake and it was truly memorable getting to see you briefly while setting up! You two were gorgeous and looked so happy! Thanks for including me to help you celebrate your marriage.

    The most delicious cake! We absolutely love Paula's almond cake! Paula made our cake tasting fun and inviting so we knew she was the right fit for us. She is also extremely organizing and makes payments easy and effortless. The day of the wedding the cake looked beautiful and exactly what we requested. We received so many compliments on the look and taste of the cake. Thank you Paula!!

    Melisa, it was such an honor to make your wedding cake! The setting was stunning and I loved the way the buttercream texture and florals came together to make your cake look sophisticated yet sweet and organic. I hope that your wedding day was fabulous!

    Paula at Windflower Cakes is awesome. I dreamed of multiple tiered cakes that were perfect, lightly sugar dusted, naked almond cake with Marionberry creme fraiche (I really dislike normal frosting) and it turns out this kind of thing is her specialty. People came up to me at the reception JUST to comment on the cake. She assembled our cake on site and it was amazingly moist and the filling was light and remnisciemt of the northwest. Everything we could have dreamed of.

    Paula is the absolute best!! We LOVED our beautiful, tasty wedding cakes that she created for our special day. We were married on a farm in Hood River and really wanted a cake that had a "low key" vibe, but was still the special wedding cake we always dreamed of... Paula made us three cakes, with the 'naked frosting look' (which we loved, it was perfect for a summer wedding) and then picked peonie flowers to top them! Was absolutely perfect - plus delicious. We had 3 different flavors, all of which were devoured by our guests. On top of the amazing product, Paula makes the whole process super special... she invited us a few months before our wedding to 'cake test' in our little kitchen in Hood River, and it just contributed to all of our special wedding planning. I will always remember laughing with my now-husband in her kitchen, testing bite after bite of yummy cake and laughing about how we could never possibly make a decision on one flavor (Paula then said to us - why pick one flavor? :) She's amazing. Can't recommend highly enough!!!

    It was such an honor making your cake, and it was truly memorable how happy you two were when we met. Lots of laughs and joy - good sign of things to come!

    Paula was wonderful to work with for our July 2017 wedding! She was flexible with our requests and let us customize our cupcake and cake order to fit our needs. Everything tasted fresh and we loved that she was local and supportive of all sorts of weddings.

    Holy smokes were we blown away by Paula's work! She was incredibly accommodating during our tasting. We weren't local and only had a few days we could travel down to meet with vendors. She left cake samples with another local vendor to help work around our timing. We really wanted a naked cake and she delivered something even more beautiful than we could have imagined. The flavors were wonderful, the cake was moist and delicious, and the look fit perfectly with our day. Would highly, highly recommend using Paula for any occasion!
