Darcy and her team were incredible - such a well run, honest, caring business that works hard to bring every bride/groom's cake vision come to life to help create the perfect day! We had a very pleasant experience communicating with Darcy via phone and email, and also when we met in person for the tasting. She is so thorough and caring, and I was impressed with the time she put into working with me, when she has a full book of business!
She also went totally above and beyond - creating two additional (large) cupcakes, and a 6 inch birthday cake for FREE - on top of the three tier wedding cake/2 sheet cakes. Our wedding day fell on the birthday of 3 special people, and when she heard she was so excited she adding these treats complimentary. We were so touched and thankful for her doing this - not to mention the cakes were delicious! So glad we chose to work with her and her team.

I called to order a cake for my husband's birthday dinner celebration in Roswell. She was very helpful in helping me decide the size and style of the cake. They delivered it to the restaurant on the day of the party. The cake was absolutely delicious and beautiful! I would definitely order again!
