Impressive customer service, not my favorite cake. I contacted Elite custom cakes for them to make…read morea gender reveal cake for me and my husband. I wanted something small since it was just for the two of us. They made us a "smash cake" for a great price. I paid the first half of the deposit when I placed the order, and the second half once I had the gender results. They were able to make my cake that same day! They told me 3pm and when I arrived the cake wasn't finished. I had to wait 15minutes and the piping did look a little rushed. I would have preferred they said a later time and were able to make the piping look as neat as possible. This being said I'm still impressed and grateful they made the cake on such short notice. I also requested pastel colored filling and it was very dark. Unfortunately I did not love the taste of the cake and couldn't not eat more than a few bites. The vanilla icing was overly sweet. I would be interested in going back and trying some cupcakes though! Overall the cake served its purpose at a very great price!

The strawberry crunch tasted just like fresh strawberries. The cupcakes were soft and moist. Every flavor was delicious. The frosting was nice and fluffy. I love that the icing wasn't too sweet, but still sweet enough for you to enjoy. The cupcakes are very affordable and worth every penny. I could sit and eat all of them in one setting. I don't know how anyone else is going to top this. I could not get enough of these cupcakes.

Cindy was totally on point with communication, and very clear with the order details: seasonally available flavors, pricing, delivery time.

We'd intentionally ordered plenty of extra cupcakes, and not one was left (including the gluten-free dozen!). It's now 2 weeks later, and our guests are still talking about how delicious that cake was. Thanks for everything, Cindy!

I never heard from them. I called, left a voicemail. I never heard back. In a panick I started looking up new bakeries in the area. I called about 10 places, including Charlene, and she was the only one to reach back out. She met with us the day of the wedding to give us the cupcakes and they were perfect. Exactly what we were looking for. My boyfriend requested to have some Halloween ones included and she was more than happy to make them. The wedding guests kept complimenting how delicious the cupcakes were. They were perfect. I wish I would've gotten a picture. Hopefully once the wedding pictures come back I'll be able to upload one. Charlene went above and beyond for us. I can't thank her enough.

I had been here once before and ordered my friend a birthday mini fruit tart and myself a cake. I remember wishing the cake was a bit more moist and curious to try other desserts. I'm so happy I returned. This time I ordered the turtle cheesecake slice and a passionfruit tart for myself. I devoured these sweets. They were so yummy. They have more of a takeout situation here, so I ordered my sweets to go and ate them at home. It's pretty tiny shop. I loved the cheesecake the most. The passionfruit tart was fun, although with passionfruit as the base flavor I wish there were more tropical topping and then maybe a plain custard one with the berries. It was still tasty. I'd recommend stopping by if you're in the area looking for some dessert.

The cake I had was a red velvet cake beautifully decorated, but a little heavy and sugary for me al thought I usually eat cake from asian bakeries. The toffee cookie was also amazing!
