They are as good as they are pretty. I'm a buttercream and TRUE cake fan and these both were spot in. This buttercream and rich and the cake is moist with just the right amount of density. Listen, there is a clear cupcake war in the DMV and forgive me for coming to the party late on Sweet Elevations but you guys can't talk #cupcakewars without mentioning Sweet Elevation. Do yourself a favor and let her do the cakes for your next event! She threw in a free sweet potato cupcake which obviously didn't make it home Alicia's customer service is great. There are 3 criteria which I use to evaluate a cupcake experience and those are 1) buttercream quality, 2) cake quality and 3) price. Sweet Elevation checks off on all three. I'll be back again this summer.

It's safe to say all of my guests felt the same. We all LOVED it. Sussy is the best! My faith in online ordering has been restored, and it's all thanks to Sussy! Most people would fantasize about a fancy wedding with hundreds of guests, but I was really happy with my small COVID-19 wedding with only 4 guests, which took place in our apartment. We did everything ourselves, from the decorations to the bridal hair and makeup, and the last thing I want to do is make a cake myself. Sussy saved my day and made my dream cake come true and even better than I could imagine. I'm never a fan of chocolate cake but hers was just magical. I LOVED LOVED LOVED the raspberry buttercream and also the delicious dulce de leche filling. I originally sent Sussy a cake design that I found online and loved, and I was expecting an exact replica of it. But NOPE! She did not copy a single thing from it, which I highly respected her for. She used her own designs and listened to my ideas to come up with the most beautiful cake ever! I also really appreciate that she picked a Baileys strawberry and cream bottle as the centerpiece as my wedding color scheme is rose gold-peachy pink. The bottle really tied everything on the cake together. I LOVED EVERYTHING about the cake. Thank you so so much for making me a beautiful cake, and I definitely will order more from you in the future when there's a special occasion.
