Christy is a very warm and energetic who is passionate about baking and loves baking for weddings!! I'm allergic to dairy and I was having trouble finding a bake who would do dairy free baking beyond cupcakes. When we met her for our tasting she and my now husband encouraged me to get a whole dairy free cake for our wedding, so that I could enjoy the cake without worrying. And it was delicious!! The folks we talked to said they loved the cake.
The negative thing I could find was that a couple of the frosted flowers had fallen off the cake. But you could hardly tell when you looked at the cake in its entirety!
11/10 recommend Cakes Rock!!! for all your wedding cake needs! We first did a tasting a were able to try several different flavors of cake, buttercreams and filling. It was a hard decision because they were ALL delicious but we went with a hummingbird cake with strawberry filling. Our guest could not stop raving about how much they loved the cake. The design was beautiful and exactly what we wanted!
Our cake turned out perfect! We just wanted a small cake for the two of us to cut and Cakes Rock had the most competitive pricing and was SO easy to work with. Our cake was absolutely beautiful and of course, delicious. So happy we used Cakes Rock!
Loved the cake! Everyone at the wedding was impressed with how detailed the artwork turned out! And it tasted great too! Y'all were great to work with!
Cakes Rock was amazing to work with from start to finish! We had a 4 tier wedding cake and a grooms cake and both were stunning and tasted amazing. We received a ton of compliments from our guests. They were able to incorporate our two kitties onto our cake which we were so happy with. Would highly recommend Christy and her team to anyone looking for a gorgeous and tasty cake!
Cakes Rock made our wedding cake, and we couldn’t be happier with our entire experience. Tasting, organization, communication, and of course, the CAKE, we’re all exceptional!! This team is versatile, responsive, and accommodating. Our guests couldn’t stop praising our delicious cake! Thank you!!
Cakes ROCK!!! is an amazing bakery and my wife and I could not be happier with the results of our beautiful wedding and groom's cakes. Christy and her crew absolutely exceeded our expectations for our cakes, she was even able to make a batch of gluten free nut free cupcakes for our guests. They worked with us every step of the way and helped us design our own personalized flavors and cake combinations. The crew did an amazing job and I cannot recommend them enough to anyone looking for a great bakery for a special occasion. The cakes tasted divine and looked incredible, we will definitely continue to hire this bakery for events going forward. We cannot thank them enough for their professionalism and hard work, looking forward to tasting many more creations from Cakes ROCK!!!
My cakes came out perfect! Exactly what I wanted. The Groom's cake was German chocolate with ganache chocolate frosting and was truly amazing!! The Bride's cake was almond amoretto with buttercream frosting and raspberry filling. It was very good as well. Very happy with my wedding cakes!
Cakes Rock created our wedding cake and wow, our cake truly did rock! The entire process was seamless, from tasting cake flavors to day-of delivery and everything in between. Our cake was designed exactly how we envisioned and tasted incredible! Cakes Rock offers so many amazing flavors to choose from and was even able to make a delicious small GF/vegan cake on the side for us to accommodate our wedding guests with dietary restrictions. We highly recommend Cakes Rock for any of your dessert needs!!
Cakes Rock rocks!! They prepared a 4 tier cake for my daughters wedding and it was delicious! Funfetti was her special request and they delivered! All cake and filling flavors are yummy! They were very easy to work with! Highly recommend!!
I have always wanted a funfetti cake for my wedding. This was one of the few places who offered it and I not be happier with our choice. Not only was the cake the best tasting we've ever had (all flavors included), but it was beautiful! Christy and her team took my idea and brought it to life in the most perfect way. I make jokes about how I love that cake almost as much as I love my husband. We have even started coming up with events just as an excuse to use them again. You have customers for life! Thank you again for your time and effort in making our wedding day so special.
WOW!!!! Can’t recommend Cakes Rock enough!!! They truly were incredible to work with. I’m gluten free and they made a fabulous 5 tier cake in 3 different flavors that was so delicious no one even guessed it was gluten free!! People loved it and it was gone so fast! If you are reading this review stop right now and contact them :)
The cake looked amazing and tasted even better! We did a rainbow- layered, lemon flavored cake with blueberry buttercream. In addition, we have an assortment of mini-deserts which gave plenty of options for our guests. Overall, we were really impressed with the quality and flavors from Cakes Rock!
Absolutely the BEST! We hired Cakes ROCK!!! for our wedding and grooms cake as well as cupcakes. Our cakes were sculpted cakes and they delivered more beauty than what we imagined. The cakes were breath taking and not to mention delicious! Everyone at our wedding gobbled up the cake so fast and had nothing but wonderful things to say. The staff is amazing and have great communication skills. Wonderful people!
The team at Cakes ROCK is amazing and, if it's possible, the cakes are even better. They were so easy to work with and pulled off my vision perfectly. We got so many compliments on our cake. Not only was it beautiful but tasted fantastic! Thanks you so so much for everything - will for sure find a reason to use yall again!!
Guests RAVED about the cake - Funfetti was the crowd pleaser.
I cannot begin to say how much we loved working with Cakes ROCK in Austin! They are spot on with communication and promptness. Since we were out of the area it was important for me to have them quickly answering all my questions. THE CAKE was too fun and looked perfect. The flavors were so delectable and it served more than I ever imagined! FIVE stars for sure!
The cake for my wedding was so beautiful!! I could not have asked for anything more wonderful. They delivered to our venue and decorated my cake on the spot!!! The cake was absolutely delicious!!!
I could not have been happier with the cake this team made for our wedding. Not only was it visually STUNNING, it tasted amazing.
The next time we are in Austin and need a cake, Cakes Rock is our first stop.
Austin was a destination wedding for us so we did not have any references for our cake. After speaking to a few bakeries we know Cakes Rock would definitely be the most attentive and the certainly were. The cake was perfect exactly like the picture we sent and it was absolutely delicious. We had requested gluten free and everyone raved that it was the best cake they had ever had. Thank you so much Cake's Rock!!!
We loved Cakes ROCK! They did a wedding cake for our daughters wedding and it looked amazing and was delicious. We did a plain ribbon icing detail with fresh flowers and they worked with flowers from our florist and designed a beautiful cake that fit with the rest of the flowers and decor. They were so easy to work with and did a fantastic job.
We had a positive experience from start to end with Cakes Rock. They helped us get in touch with another vendor that did another part of our wedding cake and it was phenomenal. The cake we chose was delicious and we wish we had eaten more of it while we had the chance.
The name says it all, your cake will certainly ROCK! Both of our cakes were the rock star of our wedding and tasted great! Mine was everything I wanted and more, with a cascading blue ombre design to look like the lake background of our wedding venue, and his Jet's Pizza cake in a box nearly stole the show! He's from Detroit, where Jet's originated, so he's the expert on what this type of pizza should look like, and he gave it double thumbs up and nearly cried when he saw it. I walked up thinking they just put a real pizza box at the bottom and not a cake-box style like we talked about, and I was about to get mad at my wedding planner for not checking this properly, until I got closer and realized it IS cake!! The box looked THAT real!! Christy and her team are at a different level of artistry, professionalism, and flavor profile than any other out there. I can contest to this as a former bakery business owner in a competing and larger city, my expectations are extremely high when it comes to everything that encompasses desserts, especially cakes....and WOW WOW WOW this place blew me away! It is one thing to make a beautiful cake, it's another thing to make it taste good, on top of my cake being vegan, which nobody knew by the way! It got demolished and I heard ran reviews from everyone. Cakes ROCK has so many vegan flavors, all that are wonderful. We got to try several in our tasting, vegan and regular flavors, and we knew immediately that this was the place for us. And we visited 4 different Austin bakeries, some highly ranked on this page, but nobody compares to Cakes ROCK! Christy and her team will go the extra mile in helping your vision turn to reality. They will reply promptly to emails and texts and accommodate you and provide stellar custom service from start to finish. There's not enough room here for me to elaborate more! If we lived in Austin area, they would be making our birthday cakes and party treats EVERY time! Love y'all and many thanks again!!
Christy is as fun and energetic as her cakes! We knew right away that we wanted to work with her and she and her team delivered on a very special request. We were unable to have our two dogs at the wedding so we asked her to fashion a golden retriever groom's cake modeled after our puppy Zeke wearing a Cowboys bandana. It turned out marvelous and was a huge hit at our wedding. Not only were the designs fabulous, but the cake flavors and frostings were absolutely delicious. We chose to go a bit non-traditional and couldn't have been happier. Her bourbon chocolate pecan cake and cinnamon churro are both to die for! We'd recommend Christy and her team at Cakes Rock!! to anyone.
Delivered exactly what I wanted and it
was delicious! I live out of town so I couldn’t meet with them but communication was made easy through emails and phone calls.
We absolutely loved the wedding cake & groom's cake that Cakes ROCK created for us! They were as beautiful on the outside as they were delicious on the inside! We had requested an all-vegan cake and Christy and her team were kind enough to take the extra time to make sure we got the flavor profile we were looking for. They experimented and came up with a new recipe for vegan swiss meringue style buttercream for us that was absolutely amazing- so light and the perfect sweetness! And it paired so well with the cake and fruit compotes.
We appreciate the hard work and kindness that they put into creating our dream wedding cakes and would highly recommend their services! :)
Dear JT & Christy!
The Wedding cake for Julia and Evan’s wedding far exceeded our expectations! This Gluten Free cake was equally beautiful as it was amazing. I cannot tell you how many guests thought this was the best wedding cake and had no idea it was GF. Your delivery staff was so professional. Upon arrival they politely informed us our silver pedestal stand would be too unstable and kindly waited as we located another cake stand from our venue that he felt would hold the cake securely. JT was incredible and patient during my decisions on cake tasting flavors, to the cake size etc. Professional courteous and fabulous! My daughters instagram has a short video of the Groom tasting the cake and his reaction was Priceless!!! He throws his head back and was like OMG this is amazing :) view the raw reaction @julialyssy 12.4,21 story
Well done!
Thank you so much!

The wedding cake was beautiful and delicious! Christy absolutely nailed my vision for the cake. There was a slight discrepancy with the flavors and it appears that we had gotten an extra flavor (that we had not ordered). I didn’t realize this until my husband told me after we returned from our honeymoon. I contacted Christy and she immediately rectified the situation. My husband and I plan on ordering our anniversary cake from Cakes ROCK!!! It was that good. My guests loved the cake too! Christy was even on the Food Network’s Halloween Wars! Do yourself a favor and book Cakes ROCK!!! The raspberry cake is literally what dreams are made of.
We are in Houston and needed a cake for our daughter’s wedding in Dripping Springs. We had some photos of what she wanted and we sent them over. The cake was exactly as she dreamed. Each of the three tiers was excellent and it is hard to say what flavor was better. They were moist, not overly sweet and the flavors were balanced perfectly in each layer. We chose tiers of hummingbird, almond and cinnamon churro. The delivery was as promised, the floral was added along with the topper and it looked magnificent. We were really pleased with the entire process and they were so easy to work with. We can’t say enough good things and highly recommend Cakes ROCK!!!
We absolutely loved our wedding cakes from Cakes ROCK!!! When we had our consultation with them, we weren't really sure what we were looking for but they were very helpful and patient, and we were pleasantly surprised that we landed on an idea that very same day. The bridal cake was beautiful and unique - we asked for fresh flowers as part of the design and the team worked seamlessly with our florist to ensure that the cake was perfect. We also weren't originally planning on a groom's cake but we were so inspired by the pictures of their previous groom's cakes that we decided to add one to the order and it was a highlight of the night! Thank you again to the team at Cakes ROCK!!!
We met with several bakers trying to find a delicious cake that we both loved and CAKES ROCK! was the ONLY option that exceeded both of our expectations. Not only we’re all of the flavors delicious and different, the cake was beautiful, they incorporated special details that made it genuinely ours, and they were a delight to work with! I highly recommend them for your next special occasion and wouldn’t consider anyone else!
We didn't just receive a beautiful and memorable wedding cake from Cakes ROCK!!!, we had a piece of edible art on display. We were very satisfied with the owners customer service and their ability to see a dreamy pinterest photo and make it real. Hands down the best cake provider in town. But it wasn't just gorgeous to look at, it was an amazing cake to eat! Everyone at our wedding loved it! A little on the pricey side, but well worth it.
Thank you so so much for the best and most beautiful cake I've ever had. <3
Where do I even begin?!! I had previously booked a different baker to do our cakes for our wedding. Let’s just say they were so rude and hateful to me. Then canceled my order telling me that I needed to find a new baker ONE month before the wedding. I’m pretty much the easiest person to work with but not them. But thank goodness for the team at Cakes Rock! They did an amazing job and blew it out of the water! They were so easy to work with and accommodating. My husband’s grooms cake was a surprise when they opened the fridge to show it to me I cried. Not tears of sadness but excitement. Both cakes were everything I asked for and more! I am so grateful for the Cakes Rock team! I will definitely use them in the future.
Had a wonder experience with getting my cake from Cakes Rock! The cakes were delicious and I am looking forward to our anniversary so we can eat our top tier!!
BEST. CAKE. EVER. Seriously. Not only does Cakes ROCK!!! make gorgeous cakes, but they also taste incredible! We got the churro and brown butter / almond and amaretto and it was HEAVEN. The team was also super sweet and professional. We will definitely be going back for birthday and anniversary cakes. So delicious! Thank you Cakes ROCK!!!
We did a simple black 1-tier cake with hummingbird cake and browned butter filling. Working with this company was a breeze. I was able to take my tasting home from Austin (where I work) back home to Houston so my fiancé and I could both try the flavors. This was the perfect set up during the pandemic when normal tastings may not be as safe. The flavors we chose were incredible and the black cake was elegant. I was cautious when choosing a cake vendor because I worried about the black staining teeth, but through consultation I was informed black fondant would not stain, and they were right. Highly recommend!
OMG!!!
Our coordinator Ashley Moody recommended Cakes ROCK!!! to us. From when we did our tasting, we were OBSESSED! We ordered a two tier cake. Chocolate Stout with Browned butter filling, and Red Velvet with Almond Amaretto filling. OMG! The cake was INCREDIBLE! We also ordered these awesome snickerdoodle cookie cupcakes and cheesecake shooters. Our dessert table looked soooo good! Cakes ROCK really does ROCK!!! We would and will absolutely order from here again!
Our cake turned out beautifully! Tasted great too! I recommend raspberry filling with white cake! I wish we had more leftover!
Delicious cake, fantastic service, and good prices. What more can you want?
Awesome experience! Beautiful cake that was exactly what we wanted, prompt delivery and set up, great people!
Cakes ROCK did an amazing job!! We got a two tier cake for cutting and four different flavored mini cupcakes for our guests and it all looked/tasted AMAZING! They were very helpful and quick when responding to emails. We also rented some cake stands from them and returning it was a super easy/quick process. Highly recommend!!
They made the most amazing cake for my wedding. It wasn't a typical wedding cake as we were married on Friday the 13th. We had a themed horror cake and it turned out way better then I could have imagined. Everyone loved the cake and it tasted so delicious we didn't have a single piece leftover! Also the price was so reasonable that it allowed me to have the dream wedding cake I always wanted!
They made an AMAZING cake for my husband’s surprise 50th birthday party! It was exactly what I wanted and delicious to boot!!
We used Cakes Rock for our wedding in November 2019. Delicious cake, fun cake tasting with Christy, and reasonably priced. At the cake tasting, we told Christy what we wanted for the bride and groom’s cake and sent pictures. When we showed up at the wedding, the groom’s cake wasn’t quite what we had envisioned – we talked about a mountain landscape and she delivered what looked like a mossy sheet cake. The bride’s cake was supposed to have fresh berries and figs on top of the semi-naked frosting, but they used dried figs instead. Not to be dramatic, but the dried figs really changed the look of the cake and we didn’t get any heads-up that the decorations would be changing, so I was a little disappointed. The cake was still tasty and I’m sure that nobody else but me noticed the dried figs, but I was pretty excited about all of the fresh fruit.
The caterers misplaced the rented cake stand at the end of the night and our coordinator could not find it. Cakes Rock ended up driving back to the venue to pick it up, which was not in their contract. That was great of them to do that and waive the late rental fee.
Our cakes were delicious, both bride and groom! And Cakes ROCK was helpful and flexible in delivery time. Thanks so much for your sweet addition to our wedding day!
Cakes Rock really does rock. It was a total pleasure to work with them! The entire process was remarkable. My daughter could not be there for the cake tasting, so I went in her place. There were plenty of flavors to taste. They use only fresh ingredients (nothing from a mix) and the butter cream icing is divine. And I don’t normally like butter cream. They took the photos and paint chips that we brought in and delivered a beautiful cake. The sugar flowers were so intricate, many people did not realize that they were not real. Delivery was right on time and went smoothly. Since it was a small wedding without a planner, we were given instructions about cutting the cake and boxes for the top layer and extra cake. I wish I had more reasons to order cake.
Amazing cakes for our wedding delivered! Any details we wanted they made sure to listen. The cake tasted amazing too!!! Great value for our money paid. I highly suggest you use CAKESROCK!!! for your wedding. So many compliments received!
Chocolate Chip Cookie layered wedding cake tasted and looked amazing. However the edges were rock solid so we weren’t able to “cut our cake”. It was very beautiful but they had us pay $40 to add berries to our cake which was a little outrageous.
They were able to recreate a rustic wedding cake for my daughter's wedding. Beautiful and tasted great. Very easy to work with.
I have know Cakes Rock since they opened in Austin. They were THE nicest people ever, plus their cakes looked and tasted amazing. They are the number one wedding cake vendor in ATX for sure!
