    Debbie is simply marvelous!!!! She is so talented and sweet, and made the most amazing sculpture cake for my hubby's surprise birthday party. She masterfully executed my vision and included so many perfect and adorable details! The cake tasted delicious too, and her customer service was above and beyond! I wish I could give six stars! Thank you Debbie for making my dreams come true!

    Boba drink & heirloom tomato cakes

    FANTASTIC! Yes - the cakes look even better in person than they do in photos. The expert craftmanship and details are beyond amazing. The best part is that the cake itself is EXCELLENT. Moist, not too sweet, light dreamy buttercream - just perfection. I really enjoyed working with Debbie on the cake. It was a boba drink and an heirloom tomato. Guests at the party thought it was a real tomato!!! Prompt responses to email, and she gave clear instructions for cake pick up. Debbie - thank you for your passion & expertise. You made my event one to remember!! If you're looking for a custom sculpture cake, look no further than Debbie Does Cake. Absolutely worth it, and you won't be disappointed.

    Homer Simpson cake. Groom's cake at our wedding reception. Amazing

    Amazing amazing amazing cake. Working with Debbie was so easy and she responded quickly with every email. I gave her a rough idea of what I was looking for with my groom's cake and she offered really good ideas. Very easy shared decision making and she made it happen. I wanted a Simpson theme cake for our wedding reception. I told her I wanted this to be a complete surprise and she arranged for discreet delivery to keep it a surprise. My groom and wedding guests were so impressed. It was the talk of the party.

    I am a little late in posting this review, but felt compelled to do so. Debbie delivered yet AGAIN and exceeded my expectations one more time. The cake was so real it inspired all of us to order ribs for the meal. And yes, the cake itself was delicious! Thank you, Debbie, for squeezing me in and for doing amazing work once again. You are magical and I'm so glad I got to meet you in-person. I'm looking forward to the next work of art!

    Many delicious layers!

    Debbie designed and made a cake for my friend's book launch, and it was spectacular! As you can tell from the pictures, it very closely resembled the real thing, from both the book jacket to the dimensions to the texture. And it was delicious, too. Debbie was very easy to work with, both listening to my needs and making suggestions to ultimately lead to a great outcome. I highly recommend asking Debbie to make your next special event cake.

    Look at that detail! There a 'paper tube' inside!

    AMAZING!!! She worked with my dear sister in creating a TOILET PAPER QUARANTINE BIRTHDAY CAKE!!! The design was like way too perfect and the cake inside was sooo good. I expected design to win over flavor but this was not the case. Both came out on top. This will be my go to for custom cakes!!!

    Southwest Airlines airplane. Moist chocolate cake with raspberry filling. Aircraft registration number was my retirement date 9/30

    Every detail of this cake was simply perfect! It was so "real" and the cake was delicious! We couldn't take enough pictures and felt bad cutting it! Chocolate cake with raspberry filling, including the clouds! The wings were made of Rice Krispies Wow ! Amazing !!

    Debbie did the Beatle Juice newspaper cake for my daughters 30th Birthday Day party. The cake was amazing to look at. The taste was just as good, we had to auction off the edible candles. I will be contacting Debbie for my mother's 70th Birthday Day party in April. We loved the look and the taste, and I have shared her info with everyone at the party!

    Debbie is a genius - her cakes are so tasty, the service is so good, and her artistry is without comparison. The two times I have used her services, the cakes have been the biggest hits of the party. My social media blows up because people can't believe these are real cakes. I will be using her again and again. Thank you, Debbie!

    My 40th birthday cake!  AMAZING
    Catherine C.

    If I could give 10 stars I would! Debbie makes the most amazing cakes! She just made a cake for my 40th birthday - a pink Chanel purse with Snoopy and Woodstock coming out of the top! Absolutely amazing....and was delicious too! My sister worked with Debbie on the design, etc and said she was so easy and so much fun to work with! I will be ordering from Debbie again in the future.

    Think you need to have a huge party to use Debbie's talents? No you don't! We had a birthday party with six people for my husband and I wanted to do something special for him. He's a breakfast man. See photos. Debbie was so easy to work with via email, which was actually easier for me. Debbie is amazing! A treasure right here in Oakland with world renowned awards. The party was today and she made special arrangements to deliver it at a certain time, had her food network coat on, and even though the party was outside still wore a mask. We discovered a kind soul and although I gave her a side hug, I really wanted to embrace her with a hearty bear hug of gratitude. She brought the cake in, hugely surprised my husband and family, and told us about how she made it. All the details. It was the highlight of the parry and my husband was so surprised, as was his stomach. Debbie is a true, true artist and baker. I asked if she could do a chocolate and vanilla interior marble with chocolate buttercream. Of course, she did it. It was absolutely delicious and the best cake I've ever had! The whole experience was amazing and I can't wait to have more celebration cakes made by her! Thank you, thank you Debbie!

    I couldn't be happier with the finished product!

    Debbie personally delivered my birthday cake and I was blown away! It was beautiful and one of the most talked about parts of my party. And the cake had the nerve to taste good too! Thanks so much, Debbie! You exceeded all of my expectations!

    Debbie made an amazing vintage reel to reel player for my husband's 60th birthday. I sent her a black and white photo from 1979 and she was able to not only identify the exact model of reel to reel player, but she noticed every small detail in the photo, including the missing volume knob. The most frequent comment from people who saw it was "I am blown away." The cake itself was super moist and delicious. Thank you for helping make this an extremely special birthday!

She was very accommodating and assured me that the cake is free of the ingredients that my son is allergic to. I'm definitely a happy customer and will come back for future inquiries.
