Admittedly, at first I wasn't fully wowed, but as soon as I heated the babka up a little bit, it was AMAZING. So moist and full of flavor. I met Sara herself, and she also does custom requests and is trying to get into some of the farmer's markets this summer. I highly encourage you checking her out! I'll definitely be requesting a chocolate almond-paste babka sometime soon. From her photos, she also does gorgeous custom cakes, cupcakes, brownies, etc... (Also, I would take a picture of the babka, but I ate it too quickly )

I sent her an email with a sort of vague and quirky request (a moose-themed baby girl cake) and some general guidance, and she pulled together an AMAZING cake. It was absolutely beautiful and tasted delicious as well. It was truly a work of art--we could hardly bear to cut into it--but we were glad we did because it was so yummy--great flavor and texture, delicious and not too sweet. It was definitely the hit of the shower. Her prices were also incredibly reasonable and she offered delivery, and showed up right when she said she would. I'm so glad I found her--and now I have a go-to person for any future cake requests.

I called Cakes by Karen on a Thursday, needing a Saturday pickup, and not only were they able to meet my timing needs without an additional fee, but the cake was perfect looking and even better tasting.

I only leave reviews for places that deserve to be reviewed and let me just tell you - THIS PLACE DESERVES ALL FIVE STARS. I ordered the Thanksgiving cookie kit. A family of cooks and bakers were FAWNING over these cookies. Jodie figured out how to make Christmas cookies taste better than Danish butter cookies. Slightly soft in the middle, bursting with flavor, and guess what? The adults ate them just as much as the kids! And, no, I did not store the leftovers in a secret hiding spot in my kitchen so no one could find them. I totally didn't do that. I totally didn't eat them all myself in the subsequent days. Noooo, not me. ;) Trust me - buy the cookies. Your mouth (and family) will thank you! P.S. We didn't take photos of the cookies, because people ate them so fast! So, here's a photo of our family from that day, for good measure.
