I happened upon Melissa through her husband Paul, who works at Ruth's Chris, when I was working with Paul to create the world's second-smallest wedding (just 3 guests).
I spoke and texted with Melissa a couple of times after checking out her website. I described what I wanted and she knew exactly what I was talking about.
She arranged a way for me to get my family-heirloom 80-year-old wedding toppers (used by my grandparents, my parents, my aunt and uncle, and now by me) to her in a way that was convenient for me. She wanted to put them on the cake so I didn't have to worry about it on my wedding day.
She made sure my cake was delivered to the restaurant (and I confirmed it was there when I dropped wine off that afternoon). My cake was both beautiful and OMG - delicious!
She took great care of my vintage cake toppers, including making sure all my original packing material for them were delivered with my cake.
I would not hesitate to use Melissa again for any special occasion baking I need! read more
