What some of their previous couples had to say….
“Alejandra is such a pleasure to work with. From the moment we met up until our wedding day, she was accommodating, professional, and such a sweetheart. The cake tasting was awesome. She had over a dozen fillings and cakes to pair each one according to what we were looking for. Her knowledge of how to pair fillings, cakes, icing, etc. made it super simple to make a decision. All her flavors were delicious and we went with the vanilla lemon raspberry swirled. OMG! How delicious it was! Our guests complimented so much on the cake. And let’s not forget how beautiful our cake was as well. We wanted a simple semi-naked cake with greenery for our rustic themed wedding and she executed it perfectly! Thank you so much for making our day that much more memorable!!” – Zulay Urena, Ever After Farms Peach Barn
“Since our first interaction with Alejandra at a wedding expo at Mission Inn she was so sweet and professional, we just had to go with her and we are beyond happy that we did. The cake was everything we wanted and more. Our guests raved about how amazing the cake looked and it tasted amazing as well. We will definitely be using her services again and again. Her lemon raspberry is to die for!” – Ida Ramirez-Cooke, Mission Inn Marina
“From the first e-mail until my actual wedding day, Alejandra was nothing but warm, professional, and just an amazing person to do business with! She is not only a phenomenal baker but a true artist. She sketched out my dream cake in minutes after carefully listening to everything we wanted. Her cake was so delicious and she offers many different flavors and combinations. We had our tasting at her house and you just feel so cozy and it’s definitely a memorable experience. Amazing! amazing!!” – Morgan, Luxmore Grande Estate
