Absolutely loved this stunning cake by Nilekha for our 25th anniversary & 50th birthday celebration…read more The elegant gold-and-white design with delicate roses was pure class.

The cake made for our Grandson's birthday was the worst crafted cake I have ever seen! The fondant…read morewas cracked and uneven. The seams were clearly visible, and to make matters worse, it crumbled apart as soon as it was cut making a huge mess. This cake was so bad that even 11 year old boys wouldn't eat it...now that's one awful cake! Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere especially for what she charges ($325)! And don't expect her to stand behind her work! We were told it wasn't a problem because most of the imperfections were in the back, which is not true. Like I said, if little boys won't even eat your cake, perhaps you shouldn't be baking.

Not only did she deliver on time, but the cake was an absolute masterpiece.

Everything was beautifully presented and tasted even better than it looked. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the flavors--every bite was delicious, and it really added a special touch to the party. You can tell there's a lot of care and talent behind every item. Thank you so much, Merav, for helping make the celebration so memorable. Highly recommend!

POST WEDDING UPDATE: After the cake tasting and deciding on using Ma Petite Maison, we asked Negar…read morefor a contract (she calls it order form). After a few weeks, we finally got it. It did take some effort (several emails and voice mails). A couple of weeks before the wedding, I wanted to know where/when the flowers from the florist should get delivered so that she can put them on the cake. When I didn't hear back from Negar, I contacted my florist and she responded immediately that I don't need to worry. Negar delivers the cake to the venue, and the flowers are added there. Phew! So my only negative comment is that communications is not great, but persevere because the cake will be worth it! On the day of the wedding, seeing that beautiful cake on the table, it was just what we had imagined. We got great advice from Negar that we should order only enough cake for about 75% of your guests, and sure enough, that was plenty. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it tasted just as good. It was so moist, and you can really tastes the strawberry flavor in the filling. It was just as we remembered from the tasting. We had so many compliments on the cake. So don't give up if you can't reach Negar. She does everything herself, and is a totally sweet person to work with. The cake will be worth it.

She's made beautifully detailed themed royal icing cookies for me on several occasions, and they always come out absolutely perfect -- not just visually, but they taste great too. She's also made cupcakes for me, including more unique and different flavor combinations, and they were delicious. On top of that, she created a custom birthday cake for me based on inspiration photos I sent, and once again, she nailed it. Everything I've ever ordered has turned out exactly as I envisioned (if not better). Katelyn is incredibly friendly, professional, and easy to work with. She's gone above and beyond to accommodate requests, including helping me out with last-minute orders, and she's even delivered to me, which I truly appreciate. You can tell she genuinely cares about her work and her clients. If you're looking for someone who is talented, reliable, creative, and a joy to work with, I highly recommend Katelyn. She's amazing, and I will absolutely continue ordering from her in the future.

Very disappointing experience at Cakes and Bakes. We ordered…read morea Black Forest cake, but the cake we received looked nothing like the one on display. The display cake was nicely decorated, but the one given to us was completely plain white with no chocolate chips around it at all. There were four cakes kept for display, and when we asked for one of them, the attender said they were only for display and refused to sell them, which felt misleading. There was plain space on top of the cake to write a message, yet the attender refused to write the wish, which is very basic service for a cake shop. Worse, the Black Forest cake did not taste fresh at all. It was hard, dry, and completely tasteless. To make things worse, it was extremely expensive $50 for an 8‑inch cake with no taste and poor quality. Overall, very bad service and not worth the money. I strongly do not recommend Cakes and Bakes.
