We hired Christina for our wedding after I spent months trying to find someone that not only makes…read moregreat cakes, but also offers more than just macaroons and cookies for a dessert bar. Our wedding was last week and Christina absolutely delivered! We ordered basically everything on her menu including 2 types of cake (classic vanilla, chocolate with peanut butter and banana), brownies, lemon tarts, 2 types of galettes, cheesecake, and panna cotta with rainier cherry compote. Everything was a major hit! We are lucky our planners saved us a box with some of each or we probably wouldn't have gotten to try anything (and we thought we overordered). The favorite was definitely the panna cotta (although I also loved the lemon tarts and my husband the brownies). Christina was so helpful in planning how much we needed and was extremely flexible as we changed our minds. We couldn't have asked for a better baker for our special day.

My husband and I got married this past September. We were directed to Christina based upon the…read moresize and location of our event - due to her minimum pricing Blue Box is not an option for small weddings but was perfect for our medium size guest count (just over 100). When meeting for our tasting, we went with the more extravagant 8 flavor option as my husband is a chocolate fan but I am not...this was well worth the price as we got 8 mini cakes to try which meant plenty to take home and enjoy over the weekend! Christina won us over with her flavors and enthusiasm, she provided some off the menu suggestions for mixing and matching sponge and fillings which was awesome. Ultimately, we settled on a mix of a traditional wedding cake (we were so pleased to get more than one flavor choice), along with a smaller gluten free cake and a number of sweet treats to appeal to a wide range of dietary restrictions and palates. When it came to design, Christina was very attentive to our inspiration photos/vision but also mindful of our budget as sugar past dahlias are not easy or inexpensive! When we discussed incorporating our dogs, she had a vendor lined up to make figurines and took care of the ordering process once we provided her some photos. Ultimately, she knocked it out of the park both with appearance and taste! I am hopeful that she waives her fee minimum in the event we want a one tier anniversary cake (-:

We wanted something unusual for a wedding that would leave an impression. Valeria delivered on that goal and then some. Most of my guests had never even heard of a mousse cake before, and now I think for many it's their new favorite dessert. The little cakes I asked for were colorful and beautifully decorated in exactly the colors and shapes I requested, they added a wonderful touch to the presentation and vibe of the wedding. They were of course also delicious, both the regular ones and the gluten free ones. Speaking of gluten free. We had multiple gluten free guests including the maid of honor, Valeriya took care to make sure that the gluten free cakes were kept properly separated to avoid cross contamination, she also managed to make them a different shape and color than the others to make them easy to spot, while somehow managing to keep them beautifully on theme. Our gluten free guests were floored by how tasty they were. Valeriya manages to make a wonderful gluten free dessert that avoids the common shortcomings of a lot of gluten free baked goods, and that really brought an extra spark of joy to our guests. I could go on but long story short, I recommend From V with Love Cakes 100 times over. We went with the strawberry vanilla bean and for gluten free the raspberry pistachio flavors and loved both, but she has many others to choose from to match your tastes and occasion. I will hopefully never get married again, but I'm sure to have other big events in my future, and I'll plan to reach out to V for all of them.

Very disappointing experience for a birthday cake order for my little one. She completely messed up…read morethe custom cake toppers I ordered. Even though I shared the exact placement she cut up the name and stuck them to the cake board by removing the backing which she wasn't even supposed to remove. She even missed one letter from the name during pickup and didn't even notice until my husband pointed out. I would have appreciated if they reached out to me if the toppers were confusing. The cake was also disappointing since the jelly part didn't thaw even though it was picked up at 12 PM and was in the fridge(not freezer) until 5:15 PM and then it was completely outside until 7 PM. The jelly part was very hard to cut and such a waste of money, since I paid for a premium mousse cake. I have two stars because she agreed for the partial refund for the messed up topper. The refund was only after I reached out to her about the cake after our party. I have added the inspiration and the output(name changed for privacy).

I'm not the kind of person to leave bad reviews, but after telling family and friends what happened…read morethey told me to leave one so I can save others shopping for a wedding cake. I was disappointed with my experience. During the initial inquiry process, the $8-per-slice pricing was not disclosed until after I had already expressed that I wanted to place an order. They said 3 tier 6, 8, 10, cake starts at $518 and an extra $70 for vintage style in the inquiry. After i went cake tasting and trying to place an order the owner told me my cake would cost $1015 for a 8,10,12 and she mentioned because of the $8 per slice for 120 guests. How does that make sense. I would have appreciated having all pricing information upfront. I also scheduled a cake tasting, but the owner did not attend because I did not send a "see you there" email beforehand. I was under the impression that the appointment was already scheduled and confirmed. If additional confirmation was required, I believe the owner should have reached out to verify the appointment rather than assuming it was canceled. I ultimately decided to go with another bakery due to ongoing communication issues throughout the ordering process. After discussing my wedding cake and expressing that I wanted to move forward, I was told I would receive a call to collect payment and formally place the order. The owner then went on vacation, and I waited for that call, but it never came. A week passed without any follow-up from her. Then I received an email that she needs to call me, and asked for my number again. So this whole time she didn't even have my number saved when I already emailed it to her and I even texted it to her through her employee's phone in the cake shop when I was at the tasting. I told her I moved on with another bakery and her response came off bitchy. How she waited for me and I delayed the payment.. girl that was you, you don't even have my number saved. She even said she cancelled my order.. an order was never placed because she never called me.. The owner seems to be on vacation a lot, I was nice and patient and giving her the benefit of the doubt but if you have a bad feeling don't move forward because it's not worth the stress. To sum it up don't go to this baker for customs, weddings, etc. I should've looked at her reviews and looks like a lot of people had bad experiences with her.

If we need cupcakes in a pinch we could come here, but there are a lot more delicious cupcakes between this restaurant and where we live.

It's insane, but you know how you always feel guilty about eating Crumbl Cookies?

But their cookies are like, 70% satisfaction with 20% guilt lol! I might have found my new favorite cookie place since I'd rather feel much less guilty about what I eat with a little lower satisfaction.
