I've gotten many of my friends obsessed with Caked Up and it's well deserved. My favorite is either the cinnamon biscoff cookie butter cake tin or tonight dough cake.

All of her cakes and cupcakes are BEAUTIFUL and decorated so perfectly, check out her Instagram if you haven't already!

Absolutely fabulous to work with! Cake was so perfect for our style shoot and quite delicious.read more

Anita Gupta of Maliha Creations is known for her amazing Charlottesville wedding cakes and I was so…read morelucky to have her make my special deliveries for multiple events for my wedding. My guests were stunned by the beautiful designs (works of art really) and they tasted absolutely divine! The whole planning process with her was so fun and special, right from the taste testing to the time of party. The cakes were so beautiful that they really added to the decor of the events. It was magical! My only suggestion is to book her as soon as you book your venue, missing out on this opportunity with Maliha Creations would be a shame. She really is the best!

Hands down one of the easiest choices I've made regarding our wedding. Maliha Creations has so many…read moreunique choices, far more than any other cake vendor in the area. We put together an amazing selection of lavender cake with vanilla and salted caramel. It tastes just like my favorite BiRite ice cream from San Francisco! I did everything by e-mail with Anita before going in for a tasting. She has a beautiful front room with sample cakes made up. I was greeted with two beautiful china settings, coffee, water and several cake and filling options. It was so hard to narrow down the choices, but Anita is great to work with. She has wonderful recommendations. I can't wait to see our final product!

Paris made our wedding cake and it was all around incredible! Holy cow the cake was delicious --…read moremany of our guests liked it so much they had multiple slices and have continued to talk about how memorable it was. We appreciated that we were able to do multiple flavors in the cake (by tiers). We had a chocolate cake with cream cheese icing layer, a coconut cake with lime buttercream layer, and a pistachio cake with raspberry buttercream layer. I truly can't pick a favorite. The coconut cake definitely wins for most interesting and was a huge fan favorite. Beyond the flavor, the cake was beautiful!! Paris arranged flowers on the cake and made our vision come to life. Paris was wonderful to work with from start to finish. From day 1, we could tell Paris was an artist and a baker -- she sketched out cakes based on our description to help us better see what it might look like and sent us home with a big tasting box to help us pick flavors. Paris and Passionflower cakes really helped make our big day memorable and delicious!!

Paris is really awesome and helpful and I love the sound of her voice over the phone. She custom…read moredesigned and sketched over 8 versions of a "Mario-themed" Grooms-cake for our wedding. To stay within our budget, she worked very diligently to meet our goals. As the five stars states, "this is as good as it gets."

I saw a post last month about a Valentine's Day promotion from Sweet Joy's Cakes and Desserts that…read morecould be delivered to JMU. Being the mom of a freshman who is 3hrs away learning how to navigate special days where you can't be present is new and can be a challenge. Of course I sent a care package full of treats, but I wanted her to also have something fresh. I ordered a box that came with six cupcakes, two cookies and half a dozen chocolate covered strawberries. This was a large enough box for her to share with her friends (highly doubt this happened. My girl loves sweets lol) or to keep her satisfied all weekend lol. Ordering was easy and delivery was a breeze. They checked in with me the day before to confirm the delivery time and even snapped a really cute picture of her holding her surprise. I definitely plan on visiting them in person on my next visit to the Burg. If you're looking for a few sweet treats, I'd highly recommend Sweet Joy's.

2 giant thumbs up for Sweet Joy's Cakes and Desserts! I ordered a bday cake for my student at JMU…read more Not only is the cake gorgeous and just as I requested (actually better), but is delicious (according to my kid, cuz I won't get any lol). Their communication with me the customer, and my Duke, the recipient, via email and text, was exceptional.

Would I drive 7 hours just to pick up a order from this bakery? If you hesitate even a second with…read morehow to answer, we can't be friends. I love-love-love some pastries. Scones, cookies, tarts, doughnuts, just keep the carbs and sugar coming. And upon my last visit to the Burg, I walked up on this place. Upon discovering that you have to place orders ahead of time (for a Friday/Saturday pickup), I immediately added a reminder note to place a order before returning. Thus my first interaction with the team here. Due to other commitments on Friday, and leaving early on Saturday, I knew if a Thursday pickup wasn't a option then I would not be enjoying anything. I sent a email and within 24 hours Alicia responded and graciously said they could make it work. Then, I just started clicking. 2 of this, 1 of that, wait what flavors are those? I might of been a touch hungry while ordering, but honestly that wouldn't have made a difference. Knowing the two doing the baking (take a moment to read the "About Us" page) and what they offered (e.g. butterscotch bourbon oatmeal cream pie, cinnamon streusel coffee cake, gooey butter cookies, sugar cookies-with sprinkles, strawberry lemon scones...wait, this was my order I picked up!), I came with a high level of anticipation. I walked up to the window, rang the bell, and held my breath. What if they had forgotten me? What if my order had somehow disappeared between Augusta and the Burg? What if...almost immediately Alicia opened the service window. My order was boxed and ready to go. No disrespect to the photos they share on social media handles, but that is just not enough to fully prepare one for the sight awaiting in that clear top on the box. The multi colors of the sugar cookie, the thickness and weight of the oatmeal cream pies (yes, I ordered 2), and of course the heavenly aroma of it all as one deeply inhales. To save myself the embarrassment of shamelessly eating everything like Cookie Monster in the Nabisco factory, I waited till I was alone to open this treasure trove of goodness. The butterscotch and bourbon, they go together like the final couple of a dating series finale. I am soooo glad I didn't eat a meal before this. That alone almost took me out for the afternoon. Again, the heftiness of the pie is a baking wonder. But oh the moistness (no, I am not afraid to use that word) of the pie and the creme. You don't need milk or coffee to wash it down. But I do suggest a cup of something on hand as you might choke inhaling it with such a swiftness. Then the cookie samples began. My compliment? Everything; flavor, texture, airness. My complaint? Not purchasing more. There should be a nudge that pops up on anything you only order one of that reads, "Are you sure you only want one?" But I digress. And also take a nap. Can't wait for my next order in March. I will add that they do walk up items that do not require pre order. They also have a far more extensive list of pastries (sweet and savory), breads, and custom cakes that you can order. If you are anywhere near Harrisonburg (home or passing through), treat yourself!

We are so glad we chose Bittersweet Bakery to make our wedding cake! From the start, the experience…read morewas amazing. We loved the tasting beforehand and were so impressed by how many delicious flavors there were to choose from. It made it hard to pick just a few. The baker was so easy to work with and recreated exactly the idea we had in mind for our cake. It turned out beautifully and was perfect for our wedding day. Bittersweet Bakery is such a gem in Harrisonburg, and we're so thankful they were part of our celebration.

The decor was very off didn't match the name of the restaurant, its bohemian bakery but the decor screamed I want to be in NY lol and the staff was just rude and frankly a little ditsy. 2 hour drive for mediocre. Not a fan. Save your money go to first watch.

Enjoyed the…read moreFull Tea, which included unlimited tea, 3 savory sandwiches, 3 sweets, and a fresh generously sized scone (today's flavor was lemon and ginger). Seriously, these were some of the best scones I've ever had - crispy sweet outer texture, soft and fluffy on the inside, no crumbly mess like other scones. Wide selection of teas to choose from - I picked the lightly fruity Lady Grey, my husband the warm and toasty Genmaicha. And the savory sandwiches were a step up from the basic white bread standard - roast beef on a pretzel bun, tuna on a croissant, open faced cucumber, chicken with roasted red pepper spread. A lovely way to spend a late morning or early afternoon in downtown Harrisonburg.
