When I initially contact Irene regarding our wedding cake, I was hesitant that she would take us on as a client. As one of the best cake designers in the area I couldn't imagine that she would make a cake for our wedding with 20 guests. But she did; and without a doubt I can honestly say that it was THE BEST CAKE I have ever eaten in my life. The entire process of working with Irene was a pleasure. Considering that we were having a destination wedding, Irene was very flexible in meeting with us and scheduling our tasting. She also made cookies that were distributed as favors to our guests and we are still getting compliments about how delicious they were. Irene is a true professional and I highly recommend her!

While many venders in Asheville are just out to make money Irene really cares about her couples experience and happiness! She gave us an amazing cake tasting at her gorgeous home and offers the most amazing flavors of which we choose several for our wedding cake. Check out her website or photos on Wedding Wire or The Knot. Her world class cake designs speak for themselves! She made my wedding cake to look like my wedding dress and it was gluten free which i need and tasted incredible! Not only that but when our caterers Sage and Spice cut up the our top tier of our wedding cake that we were supposed to take home for our anniversary she made us a new one free of charge and brought it to our house after our anniversary out of the kindness of her heart! When i asked if there was anything i could do to repay her she said and i quote, "Be happy Together. Live, Love and Laugh." Now that is the kind of vendor you want when you are getting married especially here in Asheville because i learned the hard way that a lot of these venders in Asheville are unexperienced and overcharging just to make a lot of money and not caring about you or the quality of the service they are providing or about your wedding day since you are not a repeat customer so someone like Irene is gold. So forget Karen Donatelli! Irene is here now from Vermont!

My husband and I used Irene for both our wedding cake and his grooms cake. She was responsive and one of the easiest vendors we worked with. We had a wonderful experience during our tasting and the final cakes were exactly what we envisioned. They were delicious!!!!!!!!
