We were so happy with our wedding cake and desserts table done by Ambrosia Cakes! Everything not only looked stunning but tasted amazing too. Annie was easy to work with, attentiv...
e to details, and brought our vision to life. She worked with us on creating flavors and style that worked perfectly for the day. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was. We highly recommend her.
Annie made the process of planning everything for our cake and dessert table a breeze and was incredibly easy to work with throughout! I had complete faith that everything would sh...
ow up perfect on the day and it did! Desserts and cake were delicious and guests all raved about everything. It's a shame I can't have those treats everyday!
Annie with Ambrosia Cakes was absolutely incredible. She created the most beautiful custom funfetti cake for us, it was exactly what we envisioned and even better in person.
Beyon...
d the design, the flavors were unreal. Hands down some of the best cake flavors we’ve ever had & our guests are still talking about it!
She was professional, kind, and an absolute joy to work with throughout the process. Her attention to detail, creativity, and baking talent truly shine through in her work. If you’re looking for a baker who delivers both stunning design and exceptional flavor, you cannot go wrong with her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Ambrosia Cakes provided the dessert bar for my daughter’s wedding, and it was a hit! We chose 6 different desserts for the 175 guests, and everyone absolutely loved them all. My fa...
vorites were the churros and apple pie. Guests loved the cupcakes, chocolate fruit cups, sugar cookies, and cake pops!
I was nervous about how many to ordered, and Annie helped me along the way. Great community action during the whole process.
Beautiful design and details; delicious flavor! So hard to find both in one but Annie does it! Annie is also a wonderful human who was super easy and fun to work with. She gave us ...
exactly what we were looking for and communicated well.
We picked up in tucson and drove the cakes and cupcakes to sedona. She made sure everything was packed well and made it to sedona as beautiful as when we picked it up.
Absolutely recommend!!
Annie is an incredible baker, artist, and an all around wonderful human being! She was a delight to work with from our initial consultation to delivery of our wedding cake and cupc...
akes. She was kind, timely, and professional all the way through.
We ordered an almond vanilla cake with raspberry filling, which was absolutely delicious! All the flavors we sampled were incredible, it was tough to choose! We got gluten free/vegan cupcakes for our guests with dietary restrictions, half rosette piping and half succulent. The succulents were absolutely gorgeous, with such wonderful attention to detail. I really appreciated that Annie chose accent colors for the succulents that complimented our wedding color palette. Based on her reviews and Instagram, it seems like no two succulent sets are the same, they are custom to the client. We got multiple compliments on the cupcakes throughout the night. She also did a beautiful job staging and displaying our desserts at the event.
We were so grateful to have Annie part of the team of vendors that made our wedding day so special. Do not hesitate to hire her for your wedding or event!
I saw the succulent cupcakes on Instagram and knew I had to have them at my wedding in Arizona. They were so perfect, the guests thought they were real plants. The flavours to choo...
se from are so unique as well, we chose banana and mexican hot chocolate. We also needed gluten free and they were absolutely the best gluten free cupcakes we've ever had!
Annie, owner of Ambrosia Cakes, is amazing and her desserts are equally as amazing! I've hired her to be our wedding baker and she did not disappoint. As a self-proclaimed foodie a...
nd baker, it's difficult to find many desserts in town that are up to my standard. However, Annie and her wonderful cakes are not only up to that standard, but exceeded it greatly! Her cakes taste amazing and I love all of the options she has on her menu, her designs are beautiful, and she was so easy to work with. She was very flexible and open to any changes you wanted, whether it was the design, or changing up a standard menu item, or helping you incorporate different flavors into her existing menu. She also makes one of the best chocolate chip cookies that I have ever tasted and I've tried MANY chocolate chip cookies. Many of my guests also commented on how good all of the desserts were.
One of my favorite things about working with Annie is her responsiveness and making sure she had everything on her side taken care of so you didn't have to worry about her as a vendor. Not only that, but she also provided a sample box for me and my husband to enjoy post-wedding as we didn't get to eat the ones that were at the wedding.
The wedding cake was absolutely stunning and exceeded all our expectations. Not only was it a masterpiece in terms of design, but the flavors were simply design. Our guests couldn'...
t stop raving about it and they kept going back for seconds and thirds. It truly made our special day even more memorable. She even took the next step in making a small box of desserts to make sure we tasted them since we were so busy during the wedding.
High recommended for anyone looking for a beautiful and delicious cake!
Annie is absolutely incredible and made all of our dessert dreams come true! I found Ambrosia from a blog post on “This is Tucson” a few years ago, and I knew if I ever got married...
, I had to have her succulent cupcakes. We received so many compliments from our guests, not only on the meticulous design, but on the incredible flavor as well. We even had a special request for an orange creamsicle groom’s cake. Annie went above and beyond and provided a tasting of this unique flavor to ensure she had it just right. We cannot thank Annie enough for her craft and providing a detail to our wedding that we will never forget.
Annie was great to work with! After doing our tasting, it was a done deal. Our original plan for dessert did change from beginning to end and Annie was extremely flexible. We decid...
ed to go with a one tier cake for cake cutting. Plus three different flavors of cupcakes, chocolate covered pretzels and chocolate covered strawberries. The cake design I had shown her came to life better than I could have expected. She also let us rent display items which were great so we did not have to worry about that. Highly recommend her work!!
Annie is wonderful to work with! Our cake was beautiful and the dessert table option was perfect of our wedding! Everyone raved about the churros and cupcakes!
Annie is by far the most amazing baker I could have found for our wedding cake. Not only was the cake incredibly beautiful, but it tasted phenomenal. We got lemon with strawberry f...
illing and rum cake. It was so moist and the texture was perfect. We had so many compliments.
Annie is phenomenal! I have a ton of allergies, but she did not hesitate to make a beautiful cake that my husband and I could both enjoy. She went above and beyond to give us a b...
eautiful cake with options that met our individual needs and wants. I will hire her and recommend her for anyone looking to purchase a cake. She is amazing!
We used Annie for our wedding and she was awesome! We had a small cutting cake made and 100 cupcakes. Half of our cupcakes had her beautiful frosting succulents on them and she car...
ried that theme into our cutting cake. They were so cute and delicious and the way she assembled them into a tier at our wedding was beautiful! All of our guests were talking about the cupcakes. Everything was delicious, it looked beautiful, and Annie was very easy to work with! I would absolutely recommend Annie for anyone needing beautiful baked goods.
Annie is the bomb.com. She’s so incredible we basically bought two wedding cakes from her (one for our rehearsal dinner and one for our wedding day) because we couldn’t decide whic...
h flavor was our favorite. Annie really listened to us and worked with us to create a beautiful dessert plate for every table with churros, macarons, and chocolate chip cookies. We gave her one inspo picture of the wedding cake we wanted and she took it and ran with it. The result was a stunning three tier cake with intricate piping and fresh flowers cascading down.
Could not recommend her more!!
You can't go wrong with Ambrosia Cakes! Annie is a tremendous baker and human! The entire staff was highly professional, and the desserts were some of the best we've ever had. We h...
ired Ambrosia to make our wedding cake and dessert table, and they made the entire process so easy by allowing us to pick and choose types, styles, and flavors. Additionally, the equipment they have to display their work is in-style and high quality, adding even another layer to the visual appeal of the desserts. Thank you so much Ambrosia!
Annie created the most beautiful wedding cake for us I've ever seen! I changed my mind several times on what I wanted, but she was so patient and she blew it totally out of the wat...
er. She got stuck in traffic on her way to our venue, but she was still extremely prompt getting there and setting it up. When I entered our reception, the first thing I saw was our cake and that was one of the times I cried the most during our entire day! Annie was communicative, easy to work with, and her cakes are *melt in your mouth* incredible. She made a dairy-free cake to accommodate my allergies, but our guests could not stop raving about the strawberry champagne flavor that we served them. If you're thinking about hiring Annie, I promise you won't regret it! Send her a message and order some of her cupcakes to see what you're missing (I personally love strawberry champagne and vanilla almond, but they're all to die for) . You'll love her and her sweet creations!
After the tasting, we knew we had to go with Ambrosia Cakes - they were some of the best tasting cakes we'd ever had in our lives, so we definitely wanted a cake to remember! We pi...
cked the Mexican Hot Chocolate cake with espresso filling and it was to die for.
The decor was exactly what we wanted for the cake as well, visually stunning as well as delicious. Annie collaborated with our florist to add some beautiful florals, without me having to worry about it at all.
I sampled Annie's cakes first and did not look any further before hiring her for my wedding. My husband and I both fell in love with the Mexican hot chocolate cake (and I'm not ev...
en a cake person). We chose to do fresh succulents for our cake and Annie coordinated well with our florist (Desert Blooms) and created a design that was unique and stunning. We also had a desert table with cactus topped cupcakes for our guests with dietary restrictions, macarons, and churros. Everything was beautiful and tasted great. Annie was extremely pleasant to work with and a sense of calm during the chaos that is wedding planning, I cannot recommend her enough.
Annie is such a kind person with the funniest sense of humor! She was very responsive and made sure to walk you through everything you needed to know for ordering your cake. We cho...
se a lemon cake with the blueberry compote filling and oh my goodness it was so good. The cake was super moist and full of flavor. I also let her know that we had many people with nut allergies attending the wedding and she reassured us that she was very careful with cross contamination. We requested that she decorate the cake with flowers from our florist and it turned out gorgeous! We had multiple compliments from our guest on how it was the best wedding cake they ever had and how beautifully decorated it was. Can’t wait to use Ambrosia Cakes in the future!
Annie is amazing! We had a strange request of a Rice Krispy treat cake for our wedding and she did it flawlessly! She even incorporated our fresh flowers. The whole table was laid ...
out perfectly! She as talked lots with us and made sure our vision came true!
Thank you Annie and Ambrosia Cakes!
She has ruined me for any desserts that I will ever have ever. Her cakes and the desserts we chose for our wedding were fantabulous!! As far as most desserts go, I am allergic to c...
hicken eggs and nuts. I get fresh duck eggs from a friend and Annie was the only person willing to work with my allergies. She could guarantee that no nuts or chicken eggs would be used. She told me she had never used duck eggs before. I brought her duck eggs and she practiced with them and used the session to make our samples. The cake melts in your mouth. Annie is so chill and easy to work with. She helped us make some last-minute decisions with ease and gave her advice. I told her that I will forever only go to her for celebratory desserts. I will only recommend her to friends and family.
Annie is a rockstar! We had the most amazing dessert table spread at our wedding! Our guests were blown away; they are still talking about the desserts to this day! We had guests q...
uestion what were in the cookies that made them so delicious and addicting! The cactus cupcakes are immaculate and so impressive! I had a guest send me 7 pictures of the cactus cupcakes off their phone. I think they took more pictures of the cupcakes than any other aspect of my wedding. My husband doesn't even like cake, but he willingly ate Annie's cupcakes and wedding cake. Especially the banana flavored caked. You don't want to miss out on it! Another bakery could not have topped the aesthetics and taste of our wedding dessert table! Thank you Annie!
Annie absolutely impressed us with our dessert table and wedding cake! I love that she provides a tasting box to help guide the cake flavors (plus it’s delicious). She is super fun...
to work with and professional. Everything we had ordered tasted amazing and looked beautiful. People went out of their way to mention how our dessert table was insanely good. I had come up with my own flavor combo for macaroons and asked if she could do dark chocolate sea salt cookies and without hesitation, she delivered!! We will definitely be booking her again if we ever need treats for an event.
Annie was amazing! She was very nice when we had our meeting and our tasting. She was super helpful with making sure we had exactly what we wanted and provided many different optio...
ns for us when we were trying to decide between just a cake or a dessert table and what kind of options for the dessert table. We ended up with a cake and dessert table and it was absolutely perfect, everything we wanted. Our cake was beautiful and exactly as requested, and the rest of the desserts (yummy cupcakes in assorted flavors, even a vegan/gluten free per request, churros, tasty chocolate chip cookies and delicious chai macarons) were so GOOD. And our cake was to die for!! I'm already waiting for our one year anniversary to have it again xD SO happy with our choice!!
We adored Annie! She created a beautiful two tiered cake and a ton of delicious cupcakes for our wedding! The cake was one of the most important wedding details to me and we were l...
ucky enough to work with Annie who happily made two new tea flavors for us! Her rum cake and red velvet are to die for and the texture of her cake and buttercream is so smooth.
Her cupcakes were a hit with all our guests, there were none left (she also set a box aside for us to enjoy later), and we still have some cake for our first anniversary!
Annie was amazing! Our cake was absolutely beautiful. The cupcakes and churros were also perfect! All my guest were so happy and pleased.
Nicholas and I are so happy with all the...
work and details that went into our special day! We can’t thank you enough. I high recommend Annie for any baking needs.
There is no other person in the world I would have even considered hiring to do our wedding cake & desserts! Annie is phenomenal to work with and our cake turned out absolutely per...
fect!!! Our guest loved it all between the cake, cupcakes, amd churros and there was nothing left over by the end of the night. Highly highly recommend hiring Annie for your wedding!
Annie is amazing! Not only were we planning our wedding during covid but we were also planning our Tucson wedding while living in San Diego and Annie was extremely helpful. She is ...
extremely professional, answered all our questions and gave us the set up of our dreams! She is a true artist, our cake was STUNNING and desert table was so tasty and gorgeous! She literally we t above and beyond our expectations and our guests were obsessed!!
Annie is more than a genius baker - she's a true artist! Everyone was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by this cake. It was exquisite, a dream. It was cake-as-garden. It tasted like heaven o...
n earth (we did two flavors - strawberry and mexican hot chocolate!). What more can I say?
We love you, Annie!!!
Annie did a beautiful job with our layered cake, many of our guests said it was the best tasting cake they had ever had at a wedding! She was able to accommodate different flavors ...
and a vegan tier easily. The cake was simple and gorgeous in presentation, just like we wanted. She even made the cake florals look amazing when we had an issue with the florist. I highly recommend Annie and Ambrosia Cakes for your wedding, party, event, etc.
I feel like there is a universally accepted truth that wedding cake is “just fine” and this cake was SO MUCH MORE. The best wedding cake I have ever had and one of the best cakes I...
have ever had. It’s rare for a cake to have a complex flavor profile and the Mexican hot chocolate cake has that. It goes from chocolate to cinnamon to a little kick of spice as you eat it. And the chocolate buttercream frosting? YUM!
We were a little nervous about having a non traditional cake and color, but we got so many compliments and it looked beautiful. Guests also loved the mini succulent cupcakes at the end of the night. Huge success!
From beginning to end absolutely amazing. Annie, is professional and knows what she is doing, hands down! I sent her my inspiration photos and the finish product exceeded our expec...
tations. I had many complements on the cupcakes and cake for our wedding. "Hands down" best cake/cupcakes I have ever tasted! She even helped me at the end by setting up my floral pieces for my cake and cupcake liners. Which took the extra stress off for sure! I had such a hard time putting my cake away because it was so beautiful... I let it sit on my counter so I could enjoy it a bit more before having to put it in containers. Not going to lie I was a bit emotional having to demolish her creation. Thank you so much for making our cake special for our wedding and awesome cupcakes. Absolutely beautiful.!
Annie with Ambrosia cakes was amazing!! We met with her on zoom and I gave her ideas on the look I was going for and let her be creative with the design. The cake was beautiful and...
delicious and the dessert bar was a big hit.
Annie, thank you so much for being a part of our day. Hands down BEST cake I’ve ever had. Our cakes were absolutely beautiful and delicious and I can’t say enough good things about...
you and your cakes, and cupcakes! We had a long process all throughout COVID and Annie worked graciously with us every step of the way. Annie, hoping we can get on your yearly schedule to order a small cake because I can’t imagine not having it again. Thank you, thank you, Thank you!
Annie was so amazing, we got both our wedding cakes from her! We did a micro wedding in June 2020 and she did a perfect little chocolate cake with white icing. Then when we did our...
big wedding in August 2021, she did an absolutely gorgeous cake again for us!
Everyone loved our cake and commented on how delicious it was. I was expecting cake to be leftover, and there was none left! It was very moist (like a cake should be) and the buttercream frosting was perfect.
I found the process easy. She was responsive when I had questions and super easy to work with. But even more incredible was the commitment to delivery- the road to our venue was flooded and her husband had to very carefully load the cake into a ranch truck. Luckily one of my friends who does Crossfit was there to help, so the cake arrived looking so beautiful and I didn't even realise it had such a dramatic crossing!
Annie is amazing, and I recommend her cakes! It makes me sad that she's booked so far ahead, I would love to order more cakes from her in the future!
Annie was absolutely the best baker we could have imagined working with. She was SO kind and helpful. She gave us ideas and helped us develop our vision. The cake was more beautifu...
l than I had ever pictured it being, and I really think it might have gotten the most compliments out of anything during the wedding :) And it was maybe the best cake I've ever had - not only gorgeous but delicious.
Not only did we end up with an amazing cake on the day of our wedding, but Annie is so wonderful to work with that she made the whole process so fun and easy! From meeting with her to talk about design possibilities, to picking up and trying her sample box, to her flexibility and helpfulness in working out all of the little details up until the last minute, especially during a pandemic and all of the changes that brings, I so recommend Annie to anyone looking for an amazing wedding cake :)
Thank you, Annie! We LOVED working with you, and seriously, half of the pictures from our wedding are of your cake.
Cakes from Ambrosia not only look beautiful, they taste incredible!! My fiancé is vegan, so it was important to have vegan and non-vegan options that were equally delicious. Findin...
g vegan wedding cakes seems like a daunting task, but Annie presented us with delicious options that were just as delicious as the non-vegan choices. We chose a non-vegan lemon/raspberry cake and vegan chocolate and vanilla cacti/succulent cupcakes... the final products were SHOW STOPPING. My jaw genuinely dropped seeing our cake and cupcakes for the first time. Our guests were floored! You would have thought I paid double the amount I did. And most of all, everything was delicious. If you want a baker who can accommodate your dietary needs, create masterful art, and make moist unforgettable cake hire Annie, you will not regret it.
Annie was incredible to work with. I had to come from out of town to meet all my vendors and tour the venue, and she was so flexible and helpful.
She created a gorgeous cake, whi...
ch was exactly what I had envisioned, delivered on time, and added the final touches with the flowers provided by the florist. She also created an incredible Hylian Shield Groom’s Cake for us and NAILED it!!! The detail was SO perfect.
Her cakes are delicious - the frosting is to die for.
I cannot recommend her enough!!
I’m not sure how to phrase this without sounding biased, but Annie is the best baker/dessert maker we have ever met! My husband and I are not really cake lovers, but after we tried...
her sample box, we were basically converted. The texture of the sponge is the best we’ve ever had, probably in our entire lives, and the buttercream frosting was flavorful but not too sweet. We highly recommend a fruity filling, because yum?! Our Zoom meeting with Annie was so much fun! We felt like we were friends with her almost instantly, and she seemed genuinely interested in our lives, even outside of the wedding. We had a dessert bar to appeal to all of the taste buds, and it was outstanding. Annie gave us a little sample box of all of the desserts for us to enjoy later, knowing we wouldn’t really get a chance to try everything during the reception. We really enjoyed working with her; she is a great communicator, always on top of the ball, flexible, understanding, and lots of fun! We hope to book her again for some reason, because the cake is just. that. good! Thank you, Annie!!
Our friends are still talking about how delicious our wedding cake was! Annie baked us a gorgeous cake, was flexible with our changing guest count (due to COVID), and was a joy to ...
work with. She books quickly, so don’t delay!!
Annie did such a beautiful job on our cake! It was simple and elegant and absolutely delicious! I would recommend her over and over again!
Absolutely amazing cakes and artistry!! Ambrosia Cakes makes unique, beautiful, and delicious cakes! When looking for a wedding cake baker, I came across Ambrosia Cakes and loved t...
he beautiful designs and styles of cake works they could do. After meeting with Annie for a tasting, I fell in love even more with the flavors and deliciousness of the cakes! I could not have asked for a more perfect cake baker for my wedding day! Annie made the flavors and design exactly how we wanted! Every one of our guests could not stop talking about how it was the best cake they ever had! Such an incredible addition to our wedding day! Thank you so much Annie! I highly recommend Ambrosia Cakes for any occasion!!!!
Hands down the best cake and cupcakes I’ve ever had! Our funfetti wedding cake was melt in your mouth amazing, and so beautiful. I describe the strawberry cupcakes as little strawb...
erry milkshakes in cupcake form, so delicious! Thank you Annie for helping make my elopement special, and I cannot wait to eat more of your cake at the next one!
It was a wonderful experience to work with Annie and we always felt like we were in good hands! She made the experience super easy and enjoyable! At our wedding we had a cake and a...
lso cupcakes. She let us sample flavors ahead of time and worked with us to come up with our dream cupcake menu! So many people told us how all of the flavors of the cupcakes were so yummy and we couldn't get over how delicious the cake was too! We have the top of the cake in the freezer ready to enjoy in the future. Annie blessed us with her amazing talent and creativity! We are so appreciative of Ambrosia cakes. She more than exceeded our expectations on our wedding day!
Annie was great to work with and has a true talent in the kitchen! We got sooo many great reviews about the dessert bar and I'm so bummed there were not ANY left overs! And I was n...
ervous I ordered way to much haha. Our cake tasted amazing and Annie/Amborsia will definitely be my go-to place for future desserts for any and all events!
Annie produced the most stunning and delicious 3 tier wedding cake for us. We met with her, tried the cakes, and instantly fell in love with the rum cake and buttercream frosting. ...
We loved the look of smooth fondant, and she was able to produce that same look with buttercream! Our guests LOVED the cake, and the other desserts she provided for our reception. The churros she makes are OUT OF THIS WORLD (coming from a true churro critic) and the little brownies with buttercream and gold flake were moist and the perfect amount of sweet. Annie also made a cheesecake for our grooms cake! What can't she do?
Being one of the few vendors I found that does a dessert bar, I knew that I had to meet with Annie. I originally heard about her from Z Mansion, but was still interested in her ser...
vices when we decided to get married at Saguaro Buttes. My husband and I met with her and her delicious cakes combined with her amazingly fun personality, the decision was an easy one. Her cakes are AMAZING to say the least - I will definitely be seeing if she will do another one for our anniversary (or maybe my birthday since that's sooner!). She is so great and can do pretty much anything you ask her to do. We had a personal size cake for my husband and I, and a dessert bar with churros, chocolate covered pretzels, mini cupcakes and cookies. The churros were a huge hit. You will not be disappointed hiring Annie. She is absolutely amazing and her baking skills are out of this world.
Once you try one of Annie's cakes, you'll know why Ambrosia Cakes is so popular! This was our easiest choice during wedding planning. Annie is so sweet and easy to talk to, which m...
ade our tasting fun and enjoyable. There are so many delicious flavors, it was hard to choose. We ended up getting a triple-layered cake with vanilla-almond and strawberry-champagne cakes with strawberry filling and vanilla buttercream frosting. Plus an assortment of cupcakes: red velvet, vanilla rum and Mexican hot chocolate. Chocolate-covered pretzels completed our beautiful and tasty dessert table.
Annie delivered our cake and cupcakes directly to the venue. She set up our dessert table so it was ready to go, and even provided ceramic display pieces that are free as long as you return them. Everything was beautiful and all the dessert was gone by the end of the night. We wish we saved some cake to enjoy after the wedding, so we'll definitely be reaching out for something on our anniversary. Thank you, Annie!
