I've had multiple of our quests echo that sentiment!
Renee made the most delicious and beautiful cakes for our wedding. Everyone raved about them. She was also very kind and helpful during the planning process!
We just loved our cake from Bella Manse! Renee took the time to listen to what we wanted and gave very great recommendations, worked with our florist to add the fresh flowers, and ...
the cake was YUMMY (and I'm not a sweets gal!) We were so happy with the entire process.
Renee absolutely nailed our Christmas vintage wedding cake. The design was exactly what we had envisioned, and the cake was SO delicious. We did a three tier cake with different fl...
avors- cinnamon coffee cake with a cream cheese filling and almond cake with raspberry filling.
Renee was so kind and truly had the expertise to what kind of cake we were wanting for our wedding. Having a barn fall themed wedding and having sample pictures to show what I was ...
looking for. Renee was able to take what we had in mind and turn it into something real. It was everything we were wanting and looked so amazing! The flavor was also delicious as well being a pumpkin spice cake with a cream cheese frosting!!! The cake was gone within minutes because of how good it was. Definitely would recommend and try and use again for any other special occasions like future anniversaries.
Renee was so easy and helpful to work with. We didn't really have a vision when we began searching, but the Bella Manse website has tons of inspiration photos, and Renee helped us ...
to design a cake that was beautiful and perfectly fit for the occassion. We went with pink champagne and red velvet cake with buttercream frosting....and it was delicious!
The entire process was done remote, as we live out of town, but Renee was there with us step by step, even helping to deliver the cake to the wedding venue and decorate it with our homemade flowers. Highly recommend Bella Manse!
Renee is the absolute best! Bella Manse exceeded everything that I was looking for in a wedding cake. The attention to detail, the smooth planning process, and the DELICIOUS cake ...
are something that my husband and I will never forget ❤️ We are so glad that Bella Manse was part of our wedding day - 10/10 recommend for your next event.
We hired Renee to do our wedding cake and are very glad we did! I don’t normally like cake or frosting very much, but loved the idea of having a beautiful wedding cake. I was so im...
pressed with how much I liked the cake, it was delicious! Renee was easy to work with and has a great attention to detail. She was also very flexible with us and willing to make a buttercream flavor she had never made before (lavender elderflower buttercream on a lemon cake with lemon curd and blueberry jam filling) at our request and it turned out wonderfully! She is also very knowledgeable of different cake techniques. We had a very specific vision and she was very willing to work with us to make our vision come to life. We highly recommend hiring Bella Manse for your wedding cake needs!
From the moment we walked through the door of Bella Manse for our cake tasting, we knew we were in the right place. Renee just exudes a relaxed, down-to-earth vibe. It was imperati...
ve for us that our wedding cake taste fabulous; and Renee's cakes spoke for themselves. We chose lemon with blueberry filling AND chocolate with salted caramel filling; because they were so good, we could not choose just one! Renee guided us in choosing the best layer count and size according to our vision AND did not oversell our needs. We chose the final frosting texture and provided fresh flowers with which she decorated the cake on wedding day. This cake was everything we hoped for! Thanks, Renee!
Renee is a master of wedding cakes- no seriously, not only was our wedding cake stunning and exactly what we envisioned/requested, but the flavor (we chose white with the vanilla/r...
aspberry mousse) was to die for; it was both sophisticated and delicious. And she offers so many other flavor options, it was hard to pick just one. Our guests loved it (and of course, so did we). Renee is so pleasant and easy to work with as well. Look no further than Renee/Bella Manse for your wedding cake, you will not regret it. Thank you so much Renee!
Renee at Bella Manse was fantastic!
When we first contacted her for a cake tasting, it was during Covid, but she was great in that she had an at home cake trial which we picked u...
p and then were able to try several varieties of her cake at home! They were all fantastic!
Once we booked with her, she worked with me to design the cake of my dreams, to fit our colors and theme! I was adamant that the entire cake be edible, and thus requested Renee to make sugar daffodils to decorate the cake. I think Renee was as excited as I was, as she said she actually took apart, dissected and measured real daffodils to model the sugar ones off of.
Renee also worked with me as I changed the amount of cake at least once, if not twice.
On wedding day, she delivered the cake and set it up...and it was stunning!! Better than I'd imagined. And, can we say delicious!?!? Everyone raved about how great the cake tasted!
I recommend Renee and Bella Manse for your wedding cake needs! She is talented and passionate about her work, as well as super professional and friendly!

Renee is so easy to work with. Cake is amazing and exactly what we wanted. She made the cake exactly like the photos I sent for reference. Def recommend.

re. Her attention to detail is terrific and we couldn't have been more happy with our selections. In fact, they were so good we're picking up more cakes from her for the incoming holidays!
Bella Manse is amazing!!! Renee baked my groom's cake and wedding cake for my wedding in April 2021. Both cakes were incredible and our guests are still raving about them!!! Renee ...
completely and perfectly captured my vision for the cakes. My wedding cake was so breathtaking and it turned out even better than I could have imagined. I still remember the first moment I saw it at the reception. It was completely perfect and it took my breath away. It was incredibly delicious as well! Renee is so talented and completely wonderful to work with. She was also so kind and compassionate during the challenging time of Covid. I will always remember my wedding cake and the joy it brought to us and all of our guests. I would recommend Bella Manse for ANY occasion!!!!

Renee is simply the absolute BEST! She is easy to work with, her cakes are delicious and stunning! Everyone is still raving about how delicious and beautiful our cake was. Even tho...
ugh I have seen examples of what Renee creates I was blown away when I saw our cake for the first time. Words cannot describe how perfect it looked and she indulged me when I requested a paw print on the cake to incorporate our pup into our day.
We had to postpone due to COVID and Renee made it easy for us to switch our order to a new day. She was also understanding when our guest list shrunk and we needed a smaller cake.
If you need a wedding cake (or cake for any occasion) look no further! Renee with Bella Manse is the best. Not only are her cakes soooooo delicious, but she is so easy to work with...
and makes sure that your cake meets all your expectations and more. Due to COVID, we had to reschedule our big wedding celebration, but we got married in a small backyard wedding on 6/6/2020, and Renee was so flexible and was able to make us a small cake to enjoy at that celebration. Our families are still raving about how good it was! We can’t wait to work with her again in November for our full wedding celebration and are so excited to eat more of her delicious cakes!
We are SO happy we chose Renne from Bella Manse for our special day! Not only are her cakes beautiful and delicious but she's also just the sweetest woman. Unlike a lot of the othe...
r wedding cake vendors we looked into, she was willing to really work with us and our budget to make sure we were happy on our big day and we were absolutely beyond. We are counting down the days to our 1 year anniversary so we can eat that top layer!!!!!

Renee is a cake goddess. I could never say enough good things about Bella Manse. I knew BM would be a top contender when I saw them on my recommended vendor list, but actually tast...
ing from this bakery... well it just blows every other bakery out of the water. The cake is so light and fluffy and moist and the frosting isn't too dense or sweet.. perfection all around. As soon as we had our tasting and booked her for our wedding cake, I put in an order for a birthday cake for my husband too (his bday was the day before our wedding, so we got to share with our family/bridal party at the rehearsal dinner). Everyone RAVED about the cake and wanted to take some home, but I had to tell them to just wait until tomorrow to eat more at the wedding. haha So yeah... knocked it out of the park, Renee. Thank you!!!
Let me start off by saying that our wedding cake was so amazing I was eating it for breakfast the next morning! Renee was so sweet and helpful during the whole planning process. We...
were able to try a few flavors early on and it was tough to decide because each one was so delicious. We finally decided on chocolate cake with salted caramel filling and almond cake with raspberry filling. We were so excited to see it on the big day because our wedding cake came out more beautiful and delicious than we could have imagined. We can’t thank Renee enough for her amazing work!
Renee at Bella Manse made my now husband's groom's cake for our rehearsal dinner and it turned out absolutely incredible! He loved it and the cake was absolutely delicious! If you'...
re looking for an amazing cake, I can't recommend Renee enough.
Renee did a wonderful job with our cake! We would definitely recommend her. She’s a pleasure to work with and her cakes are both artistic and delicious!

Luckily my wedding venue (the Drumore Estate) recommended Bella Manse as one of their frequent cake vendors, and I couldn't be happier that we took their advice. Renee's services w...
ere amazing over our wedding weekend and throughout the planning process! The cake was absolutely stunning, and I loved the way the flower decor worked out.
We had so many rave reviews about how delicious the cake was too! We went with two flavors - Red Velvet with Cream Cheese Icing and White Cake with Raspberry Filling - the latter being my favorite. I know some people got one slice of each, haha. It was just the perfect "sweet treat" to end the meal. My mom (who can sometimes be hard to please) was comparing the red velvet cake to the one we got for the bridal shower down in MD, and she kept saying, "That was just so much better! That was actually a well made cake!" Could not agree more :)
Renee did an incredible job with our 3 tier wedding cake at Stoltzfus Homestead, I received compliments from many of our guests. (One guest even said that he went around the tables...
at the end of the night eating all of the leftover cake slices because it was THAT GOOD. He said he wished he had tupperware to take some home!) It was honestly the best wedding cake I have ever tasted myself - light, fluffy, flavorful and delicious! Thank you so much Renee, we will be recommending you to all of our friends + family!
Renee did a phenomenal job with our wedding cake!! She made the entire process so easy for my husband and I. She was very responsive to every call and email, made the cake tasting ...
so much fun and best of all, her cakes are so incredibly delicious! I am a very indecisive person, so choosing a cake was not easy for me-- but she made the process so simple! I gave her a few ideas of what I was thinking of and she designed a perfect cake for us. A month before the wedding, I decided that I wanted a Groom's Cake and she accommodated me even on such short notice. The day of the wedding, the cake arrived promptly on time and was decorated exactly how we designed it. We got so many compliments on the cake, it was loved by everyone! Thank you Renee so much for all of your hard work, the cake was absolutely perfect!

could not stop looking at it. It was gorgeous, and tasted delicious. The oreo filling was amazing. We had a little leftover cake and I was excited to have some to take home. You cannot go wrong with Bella Manse.
You know, as I walked around all the bridal shows, all the cakes I saw were either boring, or not tasty. I was even thinking about not having a cake at my wedding, but after meetin...
g with Renee at Bella Manse, I am so thrilled we did. Renne was awesome to work with - super flexible, so creative & makes things real easy. I didn't have a great idea of what I wanted but Renee showed me a million different things we could do. We ended up with the most beautiful, delightful cake. Her prices were SO affordable and everything went seamlessly. Highly recommend Bella Manse!
I have never had a more delicious wedding cake in my life. Renee makes an absolutely gorgeous wedding cake that not only looks flawless but tastes amazing. She is a must!

Wow! The cake was the greatest and the service (planning, tasting, delivery, decoration...) were perfect - friendly, flexible, professional. Thanks!
Renee, (Bella Manse) THANK YOU for an absolutely superb job on the wedding cakes Renee prepared for us. To begin with, all the cakes were incredibly delicious, as evidenced by the ...
countless compliments we received from our guests. Several people have since told me that the cakes were the best they’ve ever had tasted/seen and we completely agree!
The cakes were just what we had wanted and exactly as Renee had designed for us during our entire wedding planning – they were beautiful in every single way possible! We were beyond pleased! Every single flavor was so delicious too! The chocolate cake with chocolate mouse, lemon cake with blueberry mouse, and pink champagne cake with the vanilla mouse. WOW!!!
It was evident that Renee spent substantial time and effort to ensure that our cakes turned out so perfectly. Renee's efforts were very much appreciated and will not soon be forgotten. I hope that our cakes, in particular, will help portray the excellent quality, dedication and service that Bella Manse offers its clients.
Thanks again for all that you did in helping to make our wedding day on October 21st, 2016 that much more special!
