Katie is awesome! Great prices, extremely easy to work with, and the food tasted great! Can not recommend her enough!
I couldn't be happier with the cake decorator I chose for my wedding! From the very first consultation, she listened carefully to my ideas and brought them to life with incredible ...
creativity and attention to detail. The cake was not only stunningly beautiful, featuring edible pearls and elegant floral details, but it also tasted absolutely delicious — moist and flavorful. The decorator was professional, punctual, and made the whole process seamless. I received so many compliments from guests, and I will cherish the beautiful cake as one of the highlights of my wedding day. Highly recommend to anyone looking for talented and passionate cake art. With just one picture i sent her, she perfected a duplicate.
We cannot say enough positive things about Katie! She was incredibly easy to work with and helpful with all details regarding our wedding desserts (cake sizing, amount of desserts...
, flavor combinations, etc). Any questions we asked she responded to timely and detailed. Our guests raved over the cupcakes and mini cheesecakes we ordered- we did not have many leftover that night (highly recommend chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter buttercream- YUM!). Our personalized cutting cake was exactly what we envisioned it would be and the taste was utterly incredible! We are 100% going to be ordering more desserts from her going forward!!
Katie did an amazing job making my wedding cake dreams come true! She went above and beyond to create the flavor/filling combo I wanted. The cake itself was dense in the best way, ...
almost like a pound cake. None of that disappointing, overly sweet, crumbly nonsense I’ve had at other weddings. I just asked for a simple design (we wanted to arrange the flowers ourselves) and Katie delivered exactly what I wanted! All communication was fast and easy, and she coordinated delivery with my venue so I didn’t have to think about anything on wedding day. Katie even generously offered to make a complimentary cake for our one-year anniversary… who else does that?! Truly can’t beat supporting a small business, especially when the finished product is such high quality.
Katie was amazing right from the beginning, the tasting!! I am gluten free (unfortunate for my husband), and she made our tasting gluten free and it was still a good texture and of...
course delicious!! She was so open with customizing our cake and working with her was so easy. Our cake was beautiful, delicious, and delivered on time! I will be calling her for all of my cake needs for sure!
Working with Katie was such a breeze! Everything we tasted from her was delicious and at such a great value for our money. My guests raved about her donuts and cookies and our cake...
was so delicious, coming from someone who doesn't even particularly like cake! It was beautiful as well, she took my inspiration photos and made something gorgeous with them. We would work with her again in a heartbeat.
Katie was so helpful and communicative from start to finish when doing our wedding cake. I have a lot of dietary restrictions (dairy free & gluten free) and Katie was able to work ...
with me to still make us a beautiful two-tier wedding cake without upcharging for the more "complicated" aspects of the ingredients. She is easy to get in touch with, reasonable with pricing, and great at what she does. Whether or not you have specific dietary needs, I would highly recommend her services to anyone. :)
We also get a complimentary mini anniversary wedding cake so we don't have to freeze our topper?! Such a bonus!
Thanks for everything, Katie!!!
Katie made my wedding cake and cookie dreams come to LIFE! My husband and I have an 11month old Rottweiler that we really wanted incorporated into our cake, and she went beyond my ...
expectations with it! We did a simple 3 tiered cake with some detailed cookies on the side. The designs on the cookies were exactly what we wanted!! Not only did everything look magnificent, but the taste was OUTSTANDING as well!! Very affordable, great personality, overall you don't want to miss out on working with her!
Our cake was exactly what we asked for! Katie is amazing to work with and even created a new to her flavor for us! Everything tasted delicious and our guests raved about how great ...
the cakes looked and tasted. Thank you, Katie!
Katie was awesome! Very fast to respond, punctual, and her cakes taste great. She had plenty of options to choose from and the decor on the cake was beautiful. Would book again
Katie did a wonderful job!! From our initial tasting, to finding us a cake stand rental, communication leading up to the wedding, and the day-of set up, she was on point and we had...
no worries about our dessert—which was delicious!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was able to make a small wedding cake for my bride and I on extremely short notice. Even thought it was short notice, she still d...
edicated the time to figure out exactly what we wanted and for a price that fit our budget. Our cake looked amazing and tasted amazing as well. Katie is very good a communicating and I would highly recommend her services to anyone.
I called around and must have talked to 20 local bakeries with a request for a specialty cake - Katie was the first to say no problem! It was exactly what we asked for. There wasn...
’t a slice left at the end of the night. Everyone loved it. She was easy to work with, friendly and went the extra mile. Thank you Katie!

We wanted a huge cake with applications and flowers with a combo of real cake and extra layers to make it taller. SHE MADE THE CAKE EXACTLY LIKE WE DESCRIBED.
