    Planning a destination wedding, I really didn't have much to go on besides a whim. I was looking at two places, which both had equally great reviews AND their prices weren't that far off. It was hard. But I went with Cakes by Karol solely based on a frosting option that she had over the other place. Having said that though, we were NOT disappointed! I didn't ask for anything too difficult so I felt pretty confident it would turn out ok, when in fact it turned out great! The cake was simple but pretty and it was delicious! We ordered the almond cake with the almond buttercream topped with toasted coconut - going for that whole 'Almond Joy' feel. Even with all that almond flavoring it was not overpowering and the cake was the perfect moistness. It was so good and the best choice that we could've made by chance. :)

    Karol and the Team really can through. I gave them only about a week to design and Finalize the cake and they knocked the Cake out of the Park it was Amazing. It was Delicious and overall a Giant Success. Karol really helped to make this 50th Birthday a Giant Success

    For our wedding, we ordered a dessert tower for our guests. Cakes by Karol whipped up some fantastic key lime, strawberry cheesecake and chocolate mousse shooters that everyone raved about! We were working long-distance and the entire process was easy, we we very pleased with the results. Very budget friendly as well. Highly recommend!

    We stopped in on our last night in Key West after trying several of the ice cream shops during our…read morestay. I think Rooster Treats is a fun change of pace from the more traditional storefronts lining Duval Street. Instead of a typical shop, it operates out of a permanent trailer. You order from a raised deck platform, then head down to enjoy your treat at one of the tables set up in a makeshift sandy beach area. The whole setup works surprisingly well. It gives you that relaxed, toes-in-the-sand feeling, almost like you're unwinding right by the water. It has a great vibe. We're not huge fans of soft serve, mainly because the flavors and textures can feel limited. Rooster Treats makes up for that with the generous amount of toppings you can add. I ordered the Chocolate Paradise, which came with chocolate drizzle, sprinkles, and Oreo crumbs. It was delicious, and the portion size was very good. Glad we checked it out before heading home.

    This is a super cute truck in the area of the Southernmost Point that offers soft serve ice cream…read moreor mini donuts with toppings! The service was quick and there was some seating outside with some sand so even though it is a few blocks inland there was still a relaxed, beach feel to the place. I got the coconut joy mini donuts and my boyfriend got the chocolate paradise ice cream. The mini donuts did get a little soggy from the toppings so I would maybe eat a little faster than I did (though I didn't take an unreasonable amount of time) or go for the ice cream. For Key West, they seemed reasonably priced and hit the spot for something sweet. If you're already in the area and looking for something sweet, I would stop here.

    The concept here is executed so well - it is one of best finds we have found in years…read more First, the decor and atmosphere is incredible. The decor is seductive in such a tasteful and classy way, everything is so romantic. It's beautiful. Cozy, intimate booths. Sparkling chandeliers flickering in candlelight. Ambient lighting. It is a perfect place to end your evening with your partner. We made reservations the morning of, on a Wednesday evening for our anniversary, and were seated promptly. Service was incredible from start to finish. I appreciate their ipad menus with questions to ask your partner, peruse the menu, and read about the origins. There are plenty of drinks and deserts with double entendre names, they're so fun. Huge positive that they have virgin drinks, and several to choose from. Both deserts we tried were out of the world delicious. The missionary crisp ice cream and flavor was 10/10, no notes to improve. Key lime from behind was the best key lime I've had in my life and quickly became the best we have tried on Key West. Incredible and what a lovely place!!

    Well, no it isn't…read more But our party of five enjoyed having drinks and dessert here. It's really more aimed at a young couple in love, but we had fun. Romantic lighting and private booths made for some good ambiance. The iPad menus were great and very useful in selecting desserts and drinks. Everything on order is accompanied by a double entendre title, which makes it fun to pick. Candy rimmed beer was good; and the berry crisp and ice cream offerings were tasty. Honestly too big, even for two. But they were trying to do something different. To know: they do not have a license for hard liquor. A fun spot to have a sweet treat. Maybe don't bring the kids.
