Absolutely adore everything about Cakes by Lilly!…read more Lilly has taken my special occasions and expressed them in cake. What's not to love? Cake art can be ridiculously expensive but Lilly manages to keep her prices low without compromising detail. Every cake she has made for me has been a conversation piece. We still talk about the mini microscope she made for my graduation cake or the detail on the kernels of popcorn on my friends Mets themed birthday cake (see pictures). What about the taste? De-li-cious! My favorite was the peach brandy cake with raspberry mousse Best of all, Lilly is an absolute sweetheart. She's always taken the time to listen to my theme, come up with creative suggests, and call me back if she needs clarification or to consult artistic direction. I only wish I had more events to order cake for.

If any business deserves five stars on here, Cakes By Lilly is definitely one of them. I had Lilly…read moremake a cake for my wife's birthday. After sending her a couple pictures of what I liked, she far exceeded my expectations. The cake came amazing, and tasted even better. The raspberry swirl cake was light and moist, and the raspberry buttercream frosting was terrific. If you are looking for a custom cake for any occasion I strongly recommend contacting Lilly.

I've had the pleasure of ordering from Sienna and Danyahl! First, I randomly just looked up…read morebakeries near my house, sort of last minute, which I don't recommend, but Danyahl responded right away, and was so very kind and accommodating to help me select the strawberry celebration cake you see picture below. I wasn't sure which cake to pick because they all looked delicious. and her creative artistry seemed impeccable, but I know we didn't have time for that, but I'm keeping that in mind for other occasions in the future Note that this is a small business owner getting her feet firmly planted on the ground, has an interesting story and one that we should all be supporting. She is local in West Hartford, and while has an incorporated business still bakes out of her home, which is great, because this cake was full of love. Now back to the cake. This was amazing. it was layered with a confetti cake and layers of cheesecake. Yes, cheesecake! There's also a thin layer of fresh strawberry jam. I picked it up on Saturday didn't get to eat it until Sunday night and it was tremendous..highly recommend leaving it out for a while so that it gets room temperature and all the flavors meld together. It is now a few days later, and it is still quite moist and soft after storing it in some Tupperware All in all so very happy to have ordered from Sienna and I am hoping for nothing but success for this business, Danyahl and her family.

Hyper realistic cakes are not plentiful in Connecticut (nor does Hope from A Little Imagination…read moreCakes brand herself as such), but take a look at the shoe in the cake she made for my wife's birthday and tell me that doesn't look real!

She initially requested a phone call to follow up, but we just replied back and forth and we got this thing finalized. Not only was this cake beautiful, but it was delicious - I picked a simple red velvet with vanilla buttercream, and it was done to perfection. A special cake my my special girl on her special day. Thank you, Hope!

We picked up birthday boys' cake today, and immediately after seeing it, I had an…read moreohmygodjusttakemymoney moment. I kept my cool though, because I'm the adult (even though I also watch the show this cake was based on) and got to see my son's magical reaction to seeing the most amazing birthday cake he's ever seen in his life. Cake weathered the ride home like a seasoned passenger while dad and I fielded questions about why we can't eat his birthday cake before his party tomorrow. The process of requesting a cake and specifying certain parts and asking for input on others was painless and smooth. Will update with how the magnificence tastes tomorrow. Edit: Bomb cake. Very eatable and worth the calories.

Do NOT order from this company. I repeat, do NOT!!…read more Look at the two pictures on my review. Absolutely unacceptable. It would have been somewhat acceptable if the cake was actually tasty, but it wasn't. Everything seemed like it was going to go okay when I first contacted her because she was professional in language and response time. After my birthday, I sent the company a personal text stating the following (and I never received a response): "So the commotion of my birthday is over now but I did want to get back to you guys. (Didn't want to do it then because there was already enough going wrong) I'm contemplating writing a poor review on Yelp, but I at least wanted to let you know personally. I'd advise removing the pictures posted that aren't actually work done by Dream Cakes and Events. I chose your company due to the picture I saw posted of previous work (the "18" cake) but I see now that was false advertising. The product you provided me honestly looks nothing like the picture and you certainly cannot read the "feeling twenty fine" part. Previous reviews suggested the cake was tasty but this was not the case for me. It was extremely brittle and the icing was definitely not the whipped topping I asked for "

It was lovely, I can best describe the taste as a cake on top with a buttery crust on the bottom. The shortbread is really good too, a buttery crumbly bite which is her mother's recipe.
