    I had a big vision for my birthday cake, since I have been looking forward to this birthday theme…read morefor years. And all I can say is - THEY DID IT. (Detailed review below. TL;DR: Absolutely will be back. Quick, easy, and transparent communication about vision, price, and all in between.) Cake Details: 9-inch, heart-shaped, marble cake with fresh strawberries, $94 INITIAL COMMUNICATION It was literally 2 minutes before closing time when I called them for the first time (my planning mishap). However, someone picked up and offered immediate, friendly assistance. I figured ordering a custom cake takes more than just 2 minutes, so I offered to call back in the morning, but she was extremely eager and motivated to help me right then and there. We discussed the general details (size, theme, flavors, shape, etc.) over the phone, and I was then provided with a phone number to text additional information and reference pictures. CUSTOMIZATION I sent 3 cake pictures as references to the phone number, and explained which elements I want from each cake. Also, I wanted a heart-shaped cake instead of a round one. I was very picky, I admit, but the team was incredibly accommodating and happy to fulfill ALL my wishes - big and small. I also sent 3 more pictures of characters I wanted to add, and yet again, they accommodated. TRANSPARENCY The communication was so easy and clear. I inquired about the price at our first meeting, and was told that all added decorations are included. (The price would have only changed if I had added another tier, changed the size, or made any other dramatic changes.) This was amazing. I was able to tell them all my detailed wishes, and I never once feared about the final price, since their communication was so clear. OVERALL This is a great business to support and order from. I was very picky in what I wanted for my cake, and they were able to match it perfectly. All my guests loved the cake - looks and taste. And it tasted as good the following days. Added Note: One of our guests is gluten-free, and I was prepared to provide a gluten-free dessert for them; however, the bakery being gluten-free is just another great bonus, and my gluten-free friends will travel to this bakery in the future. Amazing!

    OREO Cookies & Cream Bundt Cake: Nothing Bundt Cakes (NBC) has become one of my favorite guilty…read morepleasures. I especially enjoy their individual sized "bundtlets". With this fan favorite flavor, NBC takes their traditional white cake and stuffs it with OREO cookie pieces (along with their amazing cream cheese frosting). The cake itself is a white cake that I would actually argue is a light yellow. To be honest, I was a little surprised they didn't go with a chocolate base flavor with it being an OREO cake. I'm not complaining as I prefer yellow cake. I was initially skeptical that OREO pieces were in it as it kind of looked simply like chocolate cake combined with white cake. I could not have been further from the truth though as the cookie pieces offer a distinct, crisp texture. Further evidence was provided when I found a piece of OREO cookie that had some of the distinct cream filling still with it. One of the best aspects of NBC's cakes is the exceptional moistness of the cakes and that holds true with this one. There's the same great ratio of sweet cream cheese frosting to cake, with the pièce de résistance being a giant dollop on its summit. This is slightly deceitful and the first time I saw the bundt cakes I thought they would need more of their signature cream cheese frosting, but trust me, there's plenty (and I'm a frosting nut). This bundltet is phenomenal, and my favorite permanent flavor. Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews My top bundt cakes: 1. OREO 2. Confetti tied 3. Churro Dulce de Leche 4. S'mores made with Hershey's

Their team was so kind, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process, which made wedding planning feel so much less stressful. One of our favorite parts was the tasting experience they set up for us before selecting our cake flavors and frosting. They prepared an incredible assortment of cupcakes, fillings, and icings for us to sample so we could truly customize the perfect combination for our wedding day. Everything tasted AMAZING, and it made the whole process feel so fun and special. The final cake was absolutely beautiful, delicious, and such a hit with our guests. You could truly taste the quality and care that went into it. They also handled delivery directly to our event space, which made everything so easy and stress-free on the big day. We are so grateful to the Sweet Mandy B's team for helping make our wedding day feel extra special. Highly, highly recommend!
