We had a wonderful experience ordering our daughter's wedding cake from Cafe Ficelle for her August 2025 wedding. Madison, the pastry chef, was an absolute pleasure to work with fr...
om our first inquiry all the way to the big day. She provided a beautiful sample box at a reasonable price so that we could try five different cake flavors before selecting. She cheerfully and promptly answered all our questions and helped us find the best option for our vision and budget. She provided excellent communication and was very reliable and accommodating throughout the process, even delivering our cake later in the day so it wouldn't be out in the heat as long. The cake we ordered was beautiful and absolutely delicious! We would highly recommend Madison and Cafe Ficelle to anyone looking to order a wedding cake. And although we only ordered cake, their other wedding dessert options look amazing too!
