Kara not only created gorgeous cookies for two separate events; she made delicious cookies. I was…read morelucky to have any to take home. Remember to quickly set aside and hide your cookies you want to take home. The cookies are so good and beautiful that they will disappear. The first event was my son's graduation from SFSU. The graduation hats and gowns were a nice black color with gold tassels standing out, and the gator cookie was smooth with bright colors of bright gold and purple. We had two different graduating years as one graduation was in 2023 and the other was this year. Kara created a cookie for each year with a bit of sparkle in the frosting behind the year. We did vanilla and they were a hit. The second event was a large bridal shower. Between the three hostesses with very specific requests, we found four different designs and used some of Kara's. Let's start with ORDER THE LEMON COOKIES. Oh my goodness!!!! Delicious!!! Not that awful pledge flavor, but a light fresh meyer lemon taste. Because there is fresh meyer lemon in the dough and frosting. If you are a vanilla fan, then you will love the vanilla. It was also tasty. Lemon was the bride's choice, and a good choice it was! I cannot even describe how beautiful these cookies came out. We gave Kara photos and a color palate. As hostesses, we wanted these cookies perfect. They were. My only complaint is that when I got home, there weren't any left. We way over ordered, but the guests were so taken with the taste and how pretty the cookies were, they took three or four home for later with their coffee. Honestly, we over ordered because we wanted guests to take treats home to their families. I was so excited when I found a few in a bag for my son. My apologies for my crudy photography skills. The cookies were a take away gift, so they are in their little keep them fresh bags. Obviously the theme was Bride to Bee. The golds were pure and the intricacy of her decorating was meticulous. We couldn't have asked for more amazing cookies. Guests are still talking about them. Thank you, Kara, for putting so much heart and artistry into making our two major celebrations even more special.

It was the day before my best friend's wedding. I was the maid of honor and as we arrived at the…read morevenue, the bride opened her cake box and all I heard were gasps. The cake has somehow disassembled itself on the couple's ride up to Hollister. I frantically started calling local bakeries until luckily, I stumbled upon Silvia. She kindly and patiently stayed on the phone with me while I described exactly how the cake was supposed to look like and taste. She was eager to get this done for the lovely couple, even if it meant staying up late or getting up early. She communicated with us the entire time, updating us as the cake (very quickly) came together. Within just a few hours the cake was ready and it looked EXACTLY as I had described- not a detail was off. The next morning the cake was in our fridge and a couple of hours later it was displayed and cut by the bride and groom on their big day. Silvia absolutely saved my best friend's wedding. We can't thank her enough. And as for the taste of the cake, I've attached a video of the bride's reaction that says it all. Thank you!

I sent her a picture of an inspo cake, she accepted my order for the second cake and it was amazing! She sent me finished pics but in person even more gorgeous. It was packaged well and it transported smoothly. The taste was also amazing, everything was made from scratch, it was so delicious. I received so many compliments on the visual and taste. The cookies and cream cake was popular at the party, everyone loved the cookies and cream.

Wendy is incredibly talented and we have always received rave reviews from our friends and family when it comes to her goodies! They do cakes, sweets, flan and so much more at Gelimex.

We met in a coffee shop in Capitola and she brought an assortment of samples including but not limited to; red velvet, limoncello, chocolate with caramel cream, passion fruit, something with raspberry and there may have been one more. They were awesome! Before meeting veronica I had been on at least 3 cake tastings but none of them even compared to hers! The Lemoncello was wonderful. Soaked lemon cake with a lemon filling, yum. The red velvet was moist and rich and perfect. The chocolate wasn't overly sweet, and was full of flavor and it was the perfect texture. A few bites in and my mind was made up. During the tasting she was friendly and easy to work with. I knew Veronica was a perfect fit. She could make my cake x10 with the pictures she showed us she could make far more intricate cakes than I was requesting.The cake fed just over 100 people. I paid around $700 for the cake, the cake stand rental, flower placement and delivery ($100 since my venue was about an hour away). Day of I didn't get a chance to see Veronica but she worked with my Mom and my Mom said she was prompt, easy to work with and very friendly. Overall easy to work with, delicious and beautiful wedding cake at a reasonable price. =) Thanks Veronica for making my wedding day taste and look great!
