BoCakes Bakery

over decoration ideas. Kathy was very helpful and made the process easy. The cake turned out absolutely amazing and flavorful so glad we went with her.

t was classic and romantic but also featured mushrooms, which I have a PhD in. She totally nailed it. The cake was also super delicious and so were the desserts (we ordered red velvet cake balls, chocolate covered cheesecake bites, snickerdoodles, and chocolate chip cookies). All of our desserts were gone so fast. Everyone LOVED them. We also had so much fun at the cake tasting and that you can make each tier different and that you can choose up to 9 cakes and 6 fillings. We went crazy with our flavors - the bottom layer was chocolate covered in praline cream, then marble covered in cream cheese mousse with strawberries topped with funfetti. The second tier was vanilla topped with whipped cream and blueberries, then lemon cake topped with cream cheese mousse with strawberries, then vanilla. The third tier was chocolate covered with chocolate mousse with kit kats, then marble cake, then chocolate mousse with butterfingers, then chocolate cake. I only got to try tiers one and three but they were delicious. I was told that the second tier was really good too. All of the desserts were delicious, the display she made was gorgeous, the cake was stunning, and Kathy was super easy to work with. Her prices are reasonable and she includes a free cake to use for your 1 year anniversary so that you don't have to waste freezer space with cake/eat 1 year old frozen cake. I cannot wait to eat our cake again at our one year anniversary!

ke that BoCakes made for our wedding was world class! We were able to do many different flavors in each layer and all of our guests could not stop talking about how amazing it was. I wouls highly recommend!!!

ry cake.

thing was delicious and the cake stand they provided was perfect for the look of our wedding! All the guests loved it and we can’t wait for the slice they bake just for us on our 1 year anniversary.

ng event. Kathy was accommodating and made scheduling the tasting event so easy. The tasting was seamless and delicious. Added bonus, I was able to bring my parents. We ordered a three tier cake for our wedding. I wanted a simple elegant cake and she delivered exactly that and more! Our cake was beautiful and tasted amazing! Would highly recommend!

s in our 4 tier sumptuous chocolate, marble, red velvet, vanilla chiffon masterpiece complimented by a multitude of incredible fillings like cookies and cream, cream cheese mouse, lemon and strawberry and praline and strawberry. The chiffon was light and airy and the flavors were very distinct from one another yet worked liked a magical symphony.

so delicious and our dessert table was cleaned out before the night ended!

I was scheduling off the venues timeline. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she flipped about how that is a cake from Australia and it’s not what she does etc. We started shopping around and everyone we liked was booked and she was already contracted through the venue so we went to the consult. She still made a big deal about the cake I wanted, even though all I wanted was for it to be pink with white dots and lace. finally said she could do it but there would be a $295 upgrade fee on top of whatever she gets from the venue. We paid it I sat for 30 minutes picking the perfect shade of pink from swatches because I hate white cakes. The day of the wedding the cake was white. She said she was looking at the picture and forgot. Even if she went off the picture it would have been blue. I called for the refund she offered and she was only going to refund part of the upgrade fee because she still put lace. I told her that is ridiculous because what is the point of doing the other stuff when it did not even show on the cake. I told her I feel without color definition it was a white blob on the white marble pedestal we also rented to display exactly what I did not want! She then told me I’m rude and she doesn’t understand why I’m upset her cakes are beautiful. I told her you did exactly what I did not want, you can’t go back and unruin my wedding cake, and you are calling me rude? She said yes! Seriously you are so in the wrong and you are then expecting an apology from me and calling me rude?! I have let the venue know also they should not be using this vendor.

stake! We went in for our cake tasting and picked out our flavors etc. the pieces of cake she gave us were dry and not terribly flavorful. We excused it thinking that perhaps no frosting made it dry out faster? Or that the tasting pieces were not as fresh since this isn’t the real deal. Mistake #2. Overall our wedding was fabulous we loved every single detail.... except the cake ...... 1. We had ordered a 3 tier and received a 2 tier. 2. The cake was so dry and tasteless that people not only left it on their plates but commented ...... multiple times! We STILL had most of the top tier left after the wedding but it was trashed. My husband and I tried it again once home and decided even getting a cake at Ralph’s would have ended up being better.

t. Karen was also so easy to work with and accommodating. We really appreciated her professionalism. Overall a fantastic experience working with BoCakes - highly recommend.

cupcakes, cheese cake bites, eclairs, and cake were all delicious!

ore of. after, when we were talking about our vision for the wedding cake and cupcakes, she understood completely! when i saw my cake and cupcakes on the wedding day, they looked exactly like the picture i had showed her! also, her flavors are Amazing!! we wanted a good variety so we had 6 different flavors, blood orange, vanilla, chocolate, lemon, carrot cake and marble, all with different fillings to match. sadly i was only able to taste the marble, peanut butter, chocolate layer cake and the blood orange cupcake, but those were both sooo delicious!! and everyone else told me how great their flavors were too. like i said, kathy really knows her stuff! she’s the best!!

, and cake fillings! Our guests were equally impressed. Even something as simple as a chocolate chip cookie was legit the best I've ever had. Amazing and affordable!

dding cakes hehe)! You can build whatever kind of cake you want with different cake and filling options and a million different ways to combine them all. There were so many options it was almost too hard to make a decision! The cake tasting was so much fun and Kathy was really easy to work with. You will not be disappointed!

l her filling flavors displayed on a lazy susan and you get to mix and match all the different flavors. Each cake tier can be different flavors. Our cake was delightfully delicious and beautiful! She has many years of experience as well so she gives really good advice. She is also very responsive. Sometimes it’s hard to get her over the phone because she is very busy, but I always followed up with an email and she would get back to me within 24-48hours. I highly recommend BoCakes Bakery for your wedding cake.

ed beautifully! Highly recommend BoCakes Bakery!

ating. We loved getting to taste all of the different desserts and appreciated her help and suggestions in making our final decision. Our sweetheart cake turned out beautifully (and was delicious, by the way), and guests raved about the desserts that we chose--we did mini cupcakes, mini apple pies, and red velvet cake balls (the cake balls seemed to be the favorite). We are so happy we decided to go with BoCakes.

was hard to communicate with, and often throughout the process I was chasing her for replies/confirmations. After paying my final cost, she never sent me a final invoice in which I would have been able to see that the cutting cake was not on it. The desserts were on time and delicious, but the whole thing ended up in a fiasco with the cutting cake, and her saying she never received my cash deposit (which she claims she never told me to mail) but she did- again, no prior communication about whether she even received a deposit from me or not to avoid this situation down the line. Very frustrating and my poor parents had to deal with her being very rude to them and me the day after our wedding.

ng it was. Everything came out delicious and gorgeous. My guests loved it and wanted to come back for more!

as create 3 different cupcakes for our guests. We could not have asked for anything more!

astings I went to they only gave you a couple of the top sellers. I am honestly not that much of a cake person, but the BoCakes cakes are SO good! And the frosting is a buttercream that is not overly sugary which I really appreciated. I also loved that Kathy offered fresh strawberries and blueberries as filling options. We ended up going with a three tier cake and did vanilla with cream cheese mousse and strawberries on the bottom, chocolate with chocolate mousse and strawberries in the middle, and lemon with blueberries and whipped cream on the top. The cake looked beautiful, and it tasted so good as well! I did hear from my florist that the cake was delivered a little bit later than planned so she had to rush a bit putting the fresh flowers on it, but since it was a warm day it was probably best that the cake didn't sit out longer than it needed to. Overall, we had a great experience with BoCakes and would definitely recommend them to anyone planning a wedding in Temecula!

on online and Kathy recreated it perfectly. In addition, she had a wooden stump we borrowed to place the cake on for the rustic look. We were able to choose 9 layers and 6 fillings for our cake! It was moist and delicious- everyone raved it about it!

se I still wanted a cake cutting ceremony and pictures. We tasted from several area bakers and BoCakes was way above all the rest! I ordered 'to-go- boxes via email, picked them all up and went to a winery to sit and taste with my husband and bridesmaid. There was no competition, BoCakes was so fresh, moist and delicious! We went with the Blood Orange cake w/Cream Cheese mousse and fresh blueberries as our first and third tiers with a mixture of different chocolate cake layers and frostings in between. IT WAS TO DIE FOR!!! All our guests loved it too, even those that normally avoid sweets had to taste it! Thank you Kathy!!!!

beautiful spread of multiple cakes & flavors. Kathy let us enjoy our tasting with coffee and let us choose exactly what we wanted. With BoCakes, your cake is so unique as you get to choose many flavors & fillings based on how many tiers you are getting. Kathy also created my perfect Pinterest wedding cake and had a great rental cake stand inventory. We can't wait to go back in a year for our anniversary cake to have some delicious cake!

, mini carrot cupcakes, and mini chocolate cupcakes, and they were all fantastic! We knew from the start that a cake was not for us, and had expressed to Kathy that we wanted to offer four desserts, with two of them being cupcakes. At our tasting, she went above and beyond, and allowed us to try four cake flavors for our cupcakes, and she offered us just about every dessert she makes to better help us decide on the last two dessert options. Her Mexican wedding cookies are in my top 3 favorites, and I am very particular about that specific cookie. Overall, our guests loved being able to stop by the dessert table all night to grab a sweet treat, they loved the variety, and they were delighted with the quality of all of it. We had just shy of 400 pieces, and she made our dessert table look absolutely perfect. We are so happy with how it all turned out, and so glad that we opted for desserts, rather than a cake.

ery single layer of every single layer! Can’t decide between 9 flavors and you have 3 tiers? You can LITERALLY use every flavor! We didn’t get that fancy, but it was nice to have the option. We went with strawberry cake and white chocolate mousse filling on the top (bride’s choice), red velvet cake with cookies and cream filling in the middle (the bakery’s specialty), and vanilla cake with praline filling on the bottom (safe choice). We also opted for a groom’s cake. My husband (swoon) plays GO, so they made a cake and designed it to look exactly like a GO board complete with delicious frosting GO stones! This was my hubby’s concoction of lemon cake with whipped cream cheese spread and fresh strawberries as the filling. It was all so incredibly tasty and beautiful! We used this bakery through our venue as part of the Wedgewood Wedding at the Orchard package. The strawberry and white chocolate were not included, but we hardly even noticed the extra price! We would ABSOLUTELY recommend this bakery and while we didn’t save the top of our anniversary, we are absolutely going to go back to get a couple mini cakes for our anniversary!

t layer, filling, etc. for every single tier of your cake. This is awesome, if you have some people with nut allergies, but you also know that half your family love praline/pecan's, etc. For the cake tasting, you get to try every cake flavor, every filling available, and can mix and match however you please! We thought we would be somewhat limited to choosing from staple options (as most bakeries have), but not with BoCAkes, Our wedding cake was a completely custom cake, which we loved, and so did our guests! We chose to do our top and bottom tier the same (a mixture of red velvet, marble, etc.) and the middle tier included praline filling and some other cake layers for those who were not chocolate/red velvet fans, etc. The cake was amazing - and every single piece was eaten! The owner told us that for our 1 year anniversary, we can come back and get the "cake topper" made fresh, instead of saving ours and putting it in the freezer for one whole year (using space, getting freezer burn, etc.) How awesome is that? My family plans to use BoCakes for other events we have in the future because everyone was SO impressed! If you have the opportunity to use BoCakes for your wedding or any other event - I highly suggest it!

g....our guests and my new husband were sneaking them all night!! Everything was absolutely delicious and the presentation was lovely!

s. Tasting the cake and putting together 3 layers per layer was so much fun and unique. Highly recommend it!

cake topper and mini desserts for our guests. Our guests went wild over the peanut butter fudge brownies and the red velvet cake balls. Kathy, the owner, set up our dessert bar and it was everything we could have wanted. She provided all of the decorations that fit perfectly with the theme of our wedding, and it added such a perfect touch. The dessert bar was a definate highlight of our wedding and we have BoCakes to thank! I can't wait to return on our one-year anniversary to pick up a new cake topper for us to enjoy. This place does it right and I highly recommend!

! I was shocked at the number of cakes and fillings she made available to us, not only for the tasting but also the cake itself! She encouraged us to be creative, and offered basically every layer of the cake to be a different flavor with unique fillings in between each. I loved that because we ended up with such a unique selection of flavor pairings for each tier. She also did a great job of explaining the cake serving breakdown (i.e. how many guests = how many tiers, accounting for the fact that not everyone would likely eat cake). A good thing to note is that she only works with buttercream (no fondant, which was A-OK with me!) but still can create beautiful designs and pretty much create anything a couple requests. As we neared the wedding I was struggling to figure out favors for guests (I couldn't bear the idea of spending a fortune on a shot glass or other tchotchke that people would end up leaving or tossing) so I figured maybe food/cupcakes would be the way to go. Kathy gave us an excellent quote for boxes of mini-cupcakes (again offering a variety of flavor combos!) and provided the cutest little packages with personalized labels we created. All in all Kathy was professional, responsive, and wonderfully affordable! I can't wait for our 1-year anniversary to be able to indulge in her cake again (did I mention she offers a complimentary 1-year anniversary tier for her customers?!). You rock Kathy!! Thank you, THANK YOU!

the table had all of the available fillings so that we could mix and match to create our own unique flavor combination. Once the flavors were selected, Kathy had props to mock up a cake so we would know exactly what it would look like. I came in with a pretty vague description of what I wanted the cake to look like, but Kathy worked with me to come up with a beautiful cake! She even placed the flowers on the cake at the venue because the florist arrived before the cake. Our wedding cake was both beautiful and delicious!

ues we were directed to BoCakes. THANK GOD WE WERE! The cakes were amazingly moist and delicious, the frosting was perfectly matched and everything was absolutely perfect. The cake turned out gorgeous, tasted amazing, and the delivery was seamless.

because the cakes were by far the yummiest. We were working off a tight budget and I had thought I would probably only be able to afford a very small single tier cake and then would have to do sheet cake in the back for guests. Kathy's prices are so affordable that I was able to get a huge three tiered cake within my price range! I always dreamed of that but never knew that it would be possible. The cake was PHENOMENAL - all the guests loved it! I highly recommend you ask her to send a small to go box for you at the end of the night. My groom and I definitely ate a slice at the reception but had another slice back in our room later that night. It was the perfect ending to the perfect night!

g. And don't get me started on all the flavors available! She has so many delicious and creative combinations that your guests will love. It is definitely not the boring wedding cake you would get at any other event. Kathy and her team was fantastic about delivering our cake moments before our reception started so it would last in the heat and look amazing for photos during dinner. She was very communicative during the planning process and never pushy or overbearing during our tasting. I would highly recommend Bocakes for your wedding!

very good, no rush, no hassle, all the options I could possibly want. All in all a perfect experience.

nning meeting so Kathy met with my mom and I in what can only be described as a heaven on earth cake tasting session (one of the best perks about planning a wedding). Everything was delicious, her flavors are great and she has some super creative ideas that made for a memorable cake.

rdable price. Guests loved the variety of different cakes they were able to choose. Cake tasting was fun and Cathy explained everything so well , and you can tell she loves what she does In helping brides and grooms make their decision, and having so much fun doing it. I highly recommend BOCAKES.
