    Zelle’s Cottage showed up and showed out!

    Zelle’s Cottage showed up and showed out by creating some phenomenally delicious desserts for my wife and I’s special day! I have to be honest, desserts for our wedding was the last thing that we booked as we had a bit of decision paralysis, but our cake tasting meeting with Jennifer quickly set us at ease. She was so easy to work as she provided her knowledge and guidance while also ensuring our voice and our needs were heard and met. We were blown away by both the flavor and design of our custom cake, as it was far more perfect than anything we had imagined! Additionally, our guests devoured all of the cupcakes that Jennifer and her team brought over, and they were so excited to be able to share which of the three flavors they enjoyed the most! Spoiler Alert: It was incredibly hard for the majority of our guest to decide on just one because they were all wonderfully decadent and bursting with flavor! We will definitely be reaching out to her for any future needs our family and I may have, and recommend anyone and everyone to use the services of Zelle’s Cottage as well!

    All the options

    We wanted variety when it came to desserts. We had a small cake for us to cut, and opted for Red Velvet for that one. We had three additional dessert options that were pre-portioned for quick bites so guests could try a few different ones. The bourbon banana pudding was definitely a favorite of the night. Thank you for amazing desserts and such professionalism. The team was very communicative in regards to setting up the tasting and providing so many options. The follow through on the day of the event was flawless. We highly recommend this bakery.

    Delicious cake that's also art

    I love Jennifer and Zell's Cottage Bakery. Her cakes are stunning and a work of art. I knew way before I was ever engaged that I wanted her to make my wedding cake and she did not disappoint. Our wedding cake was stunning and delicious, exactly what we hoped for. It was, to say the least, perfect. In addition to making the perfect cake for us, she is also a blast to be around. Our cake tasting was extremely fun and enjoyable, she has an amazing personality. Despite our venue being at least an hour and a half away from her location and unexpected Atlanta traffic that delayed a lot of guests, she had the cake delivered and set up on time and before the ceremony. ❤️

    Cake was beautiful and decorative cookies looked amazing!

    Jennifer was so great to work with. Her cake tasting was fun and unique. She listens to what we wanted and created the most beautiful cake. We also asked for big foot cookies which came out so cute and tasty!

    Wedding desserts

    We used Zelle’s Cottage for our wedding desserts and they were absolutely fantastic. They offered a large assortment of different items. We had a small cake and 3 other types of individual desserts and everything turned out delicious. We couldn’t be happier with the quality and service we received.

    Incredible and beautiful desserts!

    The dessert bar we got from Zell’s was one of the main highlights from our wedding. Everything was absolutely incredible! If you’re looking for beautiful, delicious, moist (sorry had to say it), flavorful and memorable desserts - look no further.

    Jennifer made the most amazing desserts for our big day, and went beyond to execute our vision! Everything from gorgeous artistic cupcakes (people didn’t even know they were edible!) to decadent brownies, to a local treat we asked her to make for us (she completely nailed it) was fantastic. We had so many guests compliment us during and after the reception.

    Highly recommend Zell’s for any occasion. We just wish we lived closer so we could order from Jennifer more often. And to top it all off, Jennifer is also the sweetest baker - you truly won’t go wrong with anything from Zell’s!

    Absolutely terrific

    Working with Jennifer was a fantastic experience, fun and easy, it made getting everything we wanted in a perfect cake. The tasting presentation was amazing with so many choices and helpful ideas. The cake was delivered and set up with no problems. It looked fantastic and tasted even better. We had many compliments from our guests. I highly recommend working with Jennifer to create just what you want for your special event. She is very good at communicating with you, has a terrific product and makes it fun!

    Great service and fantastic cake

    Jennifer was incredible! She was super friendly, informative, and responsive. The cake tasting was a fun experience, with lots of variety of options. And the cakes she made were delicious and beautiful! I love that she used family recipes for some of her flavors too. Overall would definitely recommend!

    Perfect cake to accompany a perfect wedding day!

    My daughter, Ashley, got married yesterday at our church and had the reception at The Chair Factory. We used Zell's Cottage Bakery for the cake and it was absolutely amazing!!! Not only was it beautiful on the outside, but it tasted wonderful on the inside. We received many compliments on the cake. We loved the the cake texture and flavors and pureness of the icing. No dyes, just pure simple flavor. We went with the vanilla cake and chose different buttercream flavors (the coffee buttercream is unique and AH-MAZING!!) for each layer, plus had a sheet cake same flavor as one of the layers, and all were delicious! Jennifer also placed my mother's cake topper on the cake and added some flowers which made it extra special. In our correspondences with Jennifer, she worked to provide us with cake size options to stay close to our budget, as well as multiple choices for the decorative icing. Everything was perfect! Thank you so much. Cindy Laarhoven

    Hope to use Zell's Cottage 100 times again!! Flavorful perfection

    LOVED having Zell provide the cake at our wedding. Everything from our tasting to our happy guests was PERFECT. The cake is so moist and she does such a fabulous job of coming up with any cake flavor combinations from classic to more obscure flavors. We had champagne cake with champagne buttercream for 2 layers and lemon cake with lemon buttercream and blueberry comport for our other 2 layers. Would absolutely recommend Zell!!!

    Your Dessert Bar Dreams

    I can't speak in regards to her full on wedding cakes, although I have no doubt that they are just as delicious, but if your wedding vision includes a dessert bar of any kind, just go ahead and book Jennifer NOW. Not only are her packages affordable for the number of desserts you're getting, but she has such a large variety of options to choose from and they are ALL so good. Jennifer was even so kind as to work with me on a few vegan options for my family and they were a huge hit! I cannot recommend her services enough. You won't regret it!

    She is amazing!

    A++++++++++

    From consultation to booking to wedding day everything was fantastic. Jennifer was able to sketch our cakes right there in front of us! Her sampling method is the perfect way to figure out exactly what you want.

    The wedding planning process is stressful but we never once had to worry about the cakes!

    Dreams made a reality!

    Jennifer made the most beautiful cake for our wedding. She worked with our florist and created a true masterpiece. To top it all off, it tasted amazing. She also was able to make the most precious cookies fo my bridal luncheon in the 11th hour when our other favors fell through. Over all I can not recommend her enough. It was such a blessing to have her be a part of our day! Thank you Jennifer!

    Simply Amazing & Honest

    OMG!
    First off, she did great working with my vision for an amazing custom cake. Jenn is a true artist! That just the outside!
    The inside was a whole party on its own! Absolutely delicious with custom fillings in each layer.
    I went in just wanting plain vanilla and chocolate, but Zell's cottage has opened my eyes to a whole new world of delectable mouth watering variety of cakes.
    I absolutely will be hiring her again for any event I can!
    Someone's birthday is around the corner, right? Lol

    Beauty with Taste

    Jennifer did an amazing job creating my daughter’s vision of a “Van-choc-straw” cake because of her love of “Van-choc-straw” ice cream. She wanted it with berries and flowers. She created it perfectly, and it tasted amazing!

    Beautiful Wedding Cakes!

    Jennifer made our vision of our wedding cake come to life! We told her exactly what we wanted and she delivered and fresh and beautiful cake. The samples were delicious and it was a hard decision to narrow down the flavors. We can't wait to eat the top tier for our 1st anniversary!

    Wedding cake you will actually look forward to eating on your Anniversary

    Jennifer is a dream to work with! She was so creative and helped make our vision a reality. You can tell she cares greatly about her work and the couples she gets to work with.
    Not into a traditional cake? Jennifer turned my husband's love for chocolate chip cookies and M&Ms into an awesome tiered M&M cookie cake that looked as great on display as it tasted!
    I had yet to go to a wedding where the cake wasn't as hard as a rock, dried out, or so covered in fondant that it turned your mouth blue. Thus began my quest to find a wedding cake worth eating...
    We found Jennifer at a vendor fair and after tasting her strawberry champagne cake (which is to DIE for), she warmly told us about how much care and work goes into her craft, and I was struck by how a cake that looked so elegant could taste so much like......cake. A real cake, like the "I just used my finger to scrape the last bit of icing off the plate and now I really want seconds but I am in public" kind of cake. Now that was what I was looking for!
    Whether you have an eye for the edgy, or just want a white buttercream frosting cake that just tastes darn good, Zells is the way to go!

    Wedding Cakes

    Zell's Cottage Bakery did an amazing job with our cakes. Jennifer was able to bring our vision to life... plus they were absolutely delicious!!!! As the bride and groom, we were lucky that a member of our bridal party thought ahead of time to save us a slice of each to enjoy later that night agree the wedding. Our guests were going back for seconds (and thirds...lol)... because they were that yummy!!! I would highly recommend Zell's Cottage Bakery to anyone looking for a specialty cake!!

    Delicious wedding cake

    Wow, Jennifer made the wedding cake for my daughter‘s wedding. To begin, my daughter really did not care to have a wedding cake because she said she has never had one that taste good. I overruled her. After she ate a piece, she said that was the best piece of cake she has ever had. It was amazing! It was also so beautiful. Jennifer is very talented.🥰

    Delicious, unique, and beautiful!

    We started our experience with Zell’s in a super fun brewery for our tasting! It was such an awesome experience and Jennifer is so friendly and clearly very good at her job. We had Zell’s make our groom cake and our wedding cake, both very different in aesthetics and flavor. They both turned out AMAZING. We paid the travel fee for them to deliver to our venue 3 hours from their bakery — that’s how much I wanted their cakes at my wedding. We did tastings with several other cake bakers and Zell’s blew our expectations out of the water. You absolutely will not regret choosing them!

    Excellent whimsical cake you would see on TV!

    Cake and cupcakes were delicious and our Alice in Wonderland theme was caught perfectly with a topsy turvy design. It couldn’t have been better. We were blown away!! Jennifer also went the extra mile and assembled a special element for the cupcakes I wanted.

    Hire her! She's amazing!

    I told her my vision and she made it more beautiful! Everyone loved the taste of the cake and how beautiful it was. The amount of people after the wedding who told me how much they love the cake was insane. Don't walk, run! The photos don't do the cake justice. Also she was one of the best vendors when it came to replying and communication!

    Seriously Amazing!

    I am so glad we went with Zell’s! Jennifer was amazing from the beginning with ideas and thinking outside of the box! She was very flexible when we needed to postpone due to covid last year. I loved that we were able to pick up a cake tasting box (though everything was SO good it made it hard to pick a flavor!). She took our vision and made it a reality! I had no worries the day of our wedding about our cake and I was amazed when I finally saw it! I had a lot of personal items for our cake display (cake topper, cake charms, cake stands etc) and everything was displayed perfectly. Bonus: the cake was so, so good! I think I had cake for dinner for a week after the wedding and I’m still dreaming of it.

    Best Experience Ever

    Jennifer made the entire process easy and fun! We got to try different combinations of cake flavors and fillings. Our wedding cake looked beautiful and was delicious, along with the cupcakes and grooms cake there were no left overs!

    Best of the best

    Zell’s did such a great job making my cake dreams possible. I wanted sparkly, bohemian and with a touch of macaroons. She made that look cohesive which could not have been easy and the flavor was so, so good! I received complements the entire night about how great it tasted!

    The cake and cupcakes were perfect! Simple and elegant. The lemon cupcakes were the biggest hit. I received numerous compliments from my guests. I will be recommending Zell's Cottage Bakery to anyone needing a cake or cupcakes for their events.

    Wedding Desserts with Jennifer

    Since our initial meeting, Jennifer has been wonderful to work with. Her cupcakes our out of this world tasty and her decorations are very artistic. She was even able to put a picture of our dog on our wedding cookies which brought a tear to my eye when I finally saw them on our big day. I will be using Jennifer for all of my event needs from now on!!

    An artist with sugar!

    WOW!! Jennifer is truly an artist with sugar!! Not only are her cakes unique and beautiful, but they taste DELICIOUS!!! We really appreciated the ability to totally customize the flavors of the cake and the fillings/icings....she has so many choices!! We were referred to Zell's by another cake baker because we were looking for someone who could build a sculpted speciality cake for the groom's cake. People were absolutely amazed when they saw a groom's cake shaped like a US Navy Submarine!!! And they are still talking about it. So unique and the chocolate cake with raspberry, chocolate ganache filling was over the top delicious! For the wedding cake she worked in conjunction with our florist to make a fabulous classic (but OH so delicious) bride's cake !! In addition to the two cakes, Jennifer also made us some wonderful small desserts. She is so versatile and really listens to what you want....she will create your visions in sugar!!! I highly recommend Zell's!! Great value, ability to work with other vendors, but most of all delicious, artistic cakes and desserts that everyone LOVES!!

    Best wedding cake ever

    Jennifer at Zell’s Cottage Bakery went above and beyond my expectations on my daughter’s wedding cake and the grooms cake this past Saturday. We gave her a basic idea of what designs we wanted and she nailed both cakes. It was also the best tasting cake ever!!! She is simply amazing!

    Wedding cake

    All of our guests raved about the cake that Jennifer made for us. Most of them even took an extra slice to go. It was beautifully decorated and tasted even better. We would definitely ask her to make us an event cake in the future.

    Most amazing team to work with!

    Jennifer is AMAZING, beyond words the most genuine woman we had the pleasure of meeting and hanging with for the short time of the tasting. Her creativity is more than I could have asked for. There were absolutely no limits, whatever ideas I had, she would take them and make them even better! Our cakes were outstandingly beautiful (She made us a kettlebell cake - we're fitness buffs - that was SO realistic, so much so that someone tried to pick it up) Best Cake Lady Ever :)

    Best Cake ever!

    Jennifer was absolutely wonderful to work with. It started with our cake tasting, the way she constructs her tasting is perfect. You literally get to build your own cake from scratch. The cake flavor, fillings, frosting, you literally get to pick it all. She was always quick to respond to our emails and messages and is the sweetest soul to talk and work with. The cakes were absolutely delicious and a big hit at the wedding, everyone talked about all the delicious flavors and how even though they don’t usually like cake, they loved our wedding cakes!

    Although I never met Jennifer, she was so wonderful to work with! She is so talented and professional! She made me a groomscake and wedding cake, both of which were so detailed and tasteful. She definitely went beyond when it came to adding floral to the cake, staying within my budget and responding to emails on the day of.

    Absolute perfection!

    I have ordered many cakes from Jennifer, and she knocked it out of the park with the cakes for our wedding this past weekend! She made my vision of a rustic Southern cake come to life. The fondant magnolia and blush roses looked so real most people couldn't believe they were edible. In addition, Jennifer made a second cake for our new family that was based on a design by my 6-year-old daughter - truly one of a kind and something we will never forget. The absolute BEST part, however, is how delicious Jennifer's cakes are!! Every one of our guests commented on how delicious the cake was - some said it was the best cake they had ever eaten! Thank you Zell's Cottage and Jennifer!

    Amazing to work with!

    Jennifer was an absolute dream to work with! We postponed and then reduced our wedding from 100 people to 20 and Jennifer worked with us every step of the way. She always responded to our emails quickly, even when my fiancé and I were both emailing her about different events. She even created white chocolate teacups for my bridal shower cake that people couldn't believe weren't real cups! We gave her full creative freedom for the 3 one-tier cakes we did for our wedding and they were more perfect than anything I could've imagine. Our guests loved the cupcakes too and we had to make sure we put some aside for ourselves or we wouldn't have had any because they were so popular. We will absolutely continue to use Zell's for cake, cupcakes, and cookies in the future.

    The most beautiful and delicious cakes ever!

    Jennifer did the cakes for our rehearsal dinner + wedding and we were BLOWN AWAY!

    First of all - The cake she did for rehearsal dinner was ABSOLUTELY amazing - We had to tell people it was a cake because it looked so real! (HA) We did a bottle of prosecco + a miller lite bottle in an ice bucket - The creativity, detail, and absolute deliciousness she puts into her cake are AMAZING.

    Our wedding cake was equally as beautiful and delicious and we could not be happier!

    Beautiful cake, exactly as described

    Gorgeous cake that looked exactly as we had imagined it. We went with a chocolate cake, semi-naked vanilla buttercream frosting, and Zell's helped dress it up with some fresh eucalyptus and cream colored roses.

    The Cake was Delicious!

    Jennifer was so much fun and easy to work with! I honestly didn't have a vision for my cake at first, and through talking it out with her and tasting some of the flavors she brought to our meetup, I absolutely love our end result we came up with! She worked really well with my florist, as they have worked together in the past, and I love the combination we three came up wth for my beautiful cake!

    Easiest part of the wedding planning.

    Thankful that she was so flexible and organized. Cake testing was great, and there were zero hiccups. Most dependable vendor we had. We gave her some liberty with the groom's cake and she made the best chocolate explosion cake I've ever had.

    Perfect! My coordinator said she'd never seen a cake disappear that fast!

    WOW. That's how I felt about every aspect of Jennifer's work! She made the cake tasting experience so fun and personalized, and she was SO flexible about designing the cake! I got four layers and every one was a different combination of cake/filling flavors! AMAZING. Plus the way she decorated it was absolutely perfect. Exactly what I wanted. Everybody raved over our cake at the wedding. We expected there might be some leftovers, but it was totally GONE by the end of the night. My coordinator said she had never seen a cake disappear like that! I definitely know what I want for my first anniversary cake. A+++++!

    Delicious cupcakes!!

    We found Zell’s Cottage through a google search and used them for our wedding. Jennifer asked what some of our favorite flavors and flavor combinations were and for our tasting she provided numerous cake, frosting, and filling flavors that we could mix and match many different ways to find exactly what we wanted. They were all incredibly delicious! We had her make us a small cutting cake as well. Jennifer was great to work with and easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend Zell’s Cottage!

    If you're looking for a cake vendor for your wedding, look no further! Jennifer at Zell's Cottage Bakery is incredible. She's a pleasure to work with and our cake looked beautiful! Not to mention, the cake tasting was so fun and her flavors are amazing (which says a lot because my husband and I are not huge cake people in general) -- we couldn't decide on one flavor so we chose three different flavors for each tier of our cake. We are looking forward to our 1 year anniversary so we can have more of this cake!

    Wedding Cake was awesome

    Jenn gave us exactly what we asked for, down to the small details. The cake was perfect in taste and texture! I would definitely recommend her and use her again!

    You’re missing out...

    If you don’t select Jennifer for your baking needs, you are seriously missing out. I’m definitely a type-A bride and Jennifer exceeded my expectations and made cake-tasting SUCH a fun experience. It was so enjoyable to be able to create custom flavors for our wedding cake and my husband’s groomsmen cake—flavors included chocolate infused Guinness with Bailey’s frosting, chocolate covered strawberry cake, and apple cinnamon cake—every single one was AMAZING. We have received so many compliments, and I can’t even wait until our one year anniversary...we’re ordering cupcakes for my husband’s birthday this month! Jennifer, also, as a person is kind, attentive, and knows her stuff so I trusted her with everything in regard to delivery and set up wholeheartedly. Definitely a must-add to your wedding vendor list or if you’re in need of a true treat!

    She worked with me and my craziness when I couldn't decide exactly what to do, and her design turned out flawless!

    November 16, 2019 Wedding

    Jennifer did an absolutely AMAZING job with my wedding cake! I couldn’t have asked for anything better! It was beyond gorgeous and tasted so incredible! So (funny story!!) when I was hidden away in the venue before the wedding started, the caterers who were setting up inside found me and said, “Have you SEEN your wedding cake? It is absolutely gorgeous!” They were taking their own personal pictures of the cake!! They made it a point to just come and tell me how beautiful the cake was! I hadn’t seen it before that moment, so right before I was supposed to exit the venue I made it point to look at it in person before the craziness began! That was the one thing people raved about my wedding, and it turned out better than my Pinterest board dreams!

    Delicious cupcakes!

    We found Zell’s Cottage through a google search and used them for our wedding. Jennifer asked what some of our favorite flavors and flavor combinations were and for our tasting she provided numerous cake, frosting, and filling flavors that we could mix and match many different ways to find exactly what we wanted. They were all incredibly delicious! We had her make us a small cutting cake as well. Jennifer was great to work with and easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend Zell’s Cottage!

    The best of the best!

    My husband and I got our Groom's Cake from Zell's, and we couldn't have been happier with our experience! From tasting to delivery, everything was perfect. The cake tasted spectacular and looked incredible - we got oodles of compliments! I have and will continue to recommend Zell's to every friend I know who needs baked items.

    LiBasci Wedding

    Zells Cottage bakery did an AMAZING DELICIOUS 4 tier wedding cake for my wedding. I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect cake. Everyone at my wedding raves on and on for weeks about how delicious it was and how they wish they could eat more! She is so sweet and captured exactly what I wanted and more! I will forever use Zells for all my cake needs!

    Makes dreams come true

    Jennifer created a masterpiece three-tiered cake for our wedding. The tasting was fun, and she is open to do anything! She specializes in custom designs and flavors, so bring your creativity and get to Zell's! I've used her for birthday parties and a baby shower, plus I've had other treats from her. She's the best!

    Exactly What We Wanted!

    We wanted a naked wedding cake decorated with real flowers and Jennifer at Zell's Cottage Bakery definitely made it happen! And not only did the cake look gorgeous but it tasted amazing too. We had a lemon flavored cake with fresh strawberries and buttercream frosting layered in between. Jennifer, also, made the tasting process a breeze, even coming to our home with samples to try. Would highly recommend!

    My experience

    My now husband and I sought out Jennifer due to a recommendation from our wedding venue. Her portfolio is absolutely stunning, and the taste testing was amazing, so we were more than happy to sign with her. She was great at communication, and added cookies, pralines, and cookies for the rehearsal dinner. I also had mini cakes made for the wedding reception. I also felt she was well priced for the work I was expecting to receive from her. Additionally, my husband and I fell in love with a picture from her own portfolio that we wanted to be recreated, and that picture is on her page here. The time came, and I picked the cookies for the rehearsal from her place of business. To say they were beautiful and delicious was an understatement. HOWEVER, the day of the wedding was a different story. It rained, and she said she had a lot of trouble with the fondant, I let that go despite the fact I wasn’t expecting some rain to give that much trouble. It never rained really hard although it did have a short time where it was steady. Secondly, decoration to the cake was missing and left the entire thing looking sloppy. The mini cakes for the guests were not labeled, so no one knew what they were getting. Later on, I’ve had several reports that there was not enough filling and you couldn’t taste the second flavor until you had consumed about half of the cake. Thirdly, she accidentally burned the pralines, but did replace them with some sugar cookies. She did apologize and give a refund for that, as well for the lack of decoration. I do have to say she is honest, and seemed sincere, but overall, I really feel like she didn’t care about our wedding and couldn’t perform to the standards she set with her portfolio. Another major thing that contributed to this review was that my husband is wondering why she never called anyone to explain the issue with the fondant and ask for any instructions. She had the number for me and my wedding planner if any issues were to arise and never utilized it. I would much have preferred to receive a call than to walk into my cake looking like it didn’t matter. Unfortunately I cannot give her 5 stars as I originally intended based on reports I received after the day of the wedding.
