The cake we got was beautiful and the cupcakes went FAST. I always see leftovers of dessert at wedding and the cupcakes were gone in an hour!
Alex with Cake Anatomy was wonderful to work with! Alex was quick to respond to any of our questions and so friendly throughout the entire process. We were able to stop in the shop...
for a tasting and everything was delicious! We went with a small cutting cake and after sharing photos of how we'd like it to look, we were thrilled with the cake on the day of our wedding. We loved our sweet little treat!
The cakes were great! Everyone loved them, super tasty and moist. We got the exact right amount as we only had a couple slices left! I wish we had gotten a smaller cutting cake, we...
had lots of that left over. It took a few days to get back to emails, but they were busy this year so I can understand that. Raspberry swirl is THE flavor to go with.
We chose Cake Anatomy because their cakes were the best we had tasted. The frosting was what made the difference and we were not disappointed on our wedding day! We did have some c...
ommunication issues before the wedding (which isn’t good when you’re a worrier like myself), but everything worked out in the end. Our cake looked amazing and tasted even better! We received several compliments on how good our cake was.
Dawn was amazing and easy to work with at cake anatomy! I am not a cake fan but after trying her cake at a bridal show I knew we had to have it at our wedding. We went with 5 varie...
ties of mini cupcakes (cherry, vanilla, chocolate, raspberry, and carrot) and a small 6inch Cherry cake for us to cut. We sent a picture to her of how we wanted things set up at the reception (we had numerous different pieces). She set it all up exactly as we requested. Everything looked perfect and tasted amazing. We had numerous compliments on the mini cupcakes and not a single one was left. Her prices were very affordable and worth every penny.
Dawn at Cake Anatomy is the only way to go! First, very very reasonably priced and affordable. Second, Dawn is amazing to work with and adjusted to our needs. I can't have gluten s...
o she made us a GF cake top layer to freeze for our one year! We got so many compliments on our cake on how beautiful and delicious it was! Dawn is very talented and adjusts with curve-balls thrown at her. Our flowers were misplaced for the cake and she had brought extras with her and made it look beautiful. She is a cake-artist and I'd trust her any day!
Owner was extremely rude and didn't even follow up or email us back after we met with her. Clearly didn't want our business
Not only was our cake delicious, but it was beautiful! Thank you Dawn for a wonderful experience! We will definitely recommend you :)
Tasted delicious and looked just how I wanted it too!
We could not have loved our cake more! Working with Dawn was great, and everyone raved about how tasty (and beautiful) our cake was. We went with an assortment of white cake, tri...
ple berry, and double chocolate. They were all wonderful!
Dawn makes the best cakes!! Each layer we had was a different flavor and they were all delicious! If I had to pick one, I couldn't. My husband kept telling me he didn't like ca...
ke, but after trying many of the flavors, he's turned into a cake lover! We planned on saving our top tier for our 1 year anniversary, but only made it to the 1 month mark and just had to eat it 11 months early!
Dawn is great to work with and very helpful and personable. She took care of everything which is very helpful when there is so much going on with the planning process.
I highly recommend Cake Anatomy! You will not be disappointed!
I highly recommend Cake Anatomy to anyone!! Dawn the owner was great to work with, and had amazing design ideas. I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted going into our finalization mee...
ting, but leaving I left very confident and super excited! She was very helpful, and answered all my questions. The cake tasted amazing and was super moist! Everyone raved about the home made butter cream! We had no cake left! We also had a desert bar that our guests LOVED!! Dawn at Cake Anatomy defiantly went above and beyond for my husband and I and we couldn’t be happier with her services!
Dawn at Cake Anatomy was extremely helpful with our cake selection and even wedding planning suggestions. When it came to our cake delivery, set up, etc.. we had nothing to worry ...
about, allowing for less stress on our special day. The cake was delicious, and we received many compliments on the appearance and taste of the cake.
Dawn has the best cakes around! You schedule your consult with Dawn and she is the one who makes your cakes. Very professional and the cake was amazing! Our wedding cake was BEAUT...
IFUL! I would recommend her to everyone!
We were married last weekend and we are still getting compliments on the cake. So many different flavors to choose from, but you cant go wrong with any. Dawn was super easy to work...
with and listened to what we wanted. The cake was beautiful and frosting is to die for. Will continue going to Cake Anatomy for special event cakes, or just for fun!
Our cake was absolutely beautiful and was exactly what I wanted! It was even better than the pinterest picture I brought in! It looked amazing and tasted even better :) The cake w...
as more amazing than I ever could of imagined! We planned on putting some out with pizza at 10, but all the flavors tasted so great that we ended up going through all our cake at dinner because people took more than one slice! It was simply perfect.
Our wedding cake was so beautiful and delicious and working with Dawn was a breeze. We showed her a few photos of what we were thinking, and she delivered exactly what we were look...
ing for.
Dawn makes real buttercream--and her cakes are super moist. You can definitely taste the difference. We ordered a 6 tier cake--enough for over 350 guests, when we only had 280. We were supposed to serve the leftover cake at our gift opening the next morning, but the entire cake was gone.
We don't think we can wait until our anniversary to have this cake again, so we'll be looking for an excuse soon to order some cupcakes from Cake Anatomy :)
Best place to get a wedding or special-event cake in the Fox Valley. Dawn was easy to work with and gave her expertise to help choose the best flavors and icing choices.
I had my heart set on cupcake bouquet centerpieces, but every bakery I visited tried to talk me out of it...Until I met Dawn! She was very excited to try something new, and the res...
ults were EXACTLY as I had envisioned. She did an amazing job making my ideas come to life. Not to mention the cupcakes were delicious, of course! We received so many compliments on them throughout the night.
Cakes are all very beautiful and the most delicious we tasted. Dawn is so great to work with! All of my guests complimented the cake! Would highly recommend!
Excellent!
My husband and I were really excited to find Cake Anatomy as the other places we had tried paled in comparison to flavor and artistry. We explained we what had wanted and it didn'...
t seem to be an issue. We advised Dawn that we wouldn't be having a cake topper and that she could have our design come up overtop the cake. This didn't happen and made the cake look somewhat empty. There truly is no one that can beat her flavors and taste of the cake; however we were disappointed in the overall design. Furthermore, we initially signed the contract for a certain size cake due to the guests we were inviting. When we started to realize around 1 month before the wedding that our guest list would be significantly smaller than thought we were not able to change the size of our cake at that time. We were told any changes had to be made no later than the 3 month mark. At that point we hadn't even sent out our invitations. That was disappointing to know that their policies were not customer centric.
Dawn at Cake Anatomy was great! She met with my fiancé and I allowed us to try many of her most popular cake flavors for free. (Another cake vendor we saw charged us $5 per flavor ...
we tasted). I communicated with Dawn through email since I lived a few hours away from Kaukauna. She always responded quickly and clearly and was very helpful and professional. On our wedding day I was very happy with the appearance of our cake! It was beautiful and looked exactly as I had envisioned! All the flavors in our cake tasted delicious and we got many compliments. Dawn made our frosting look like fondant which was awesome because it tasted great and was affordable! You couldn't even tell it was not fondant by its appearance. I would recommend Cake Anatomy to all of my friends getting married. So glad I choose Cake Anatomy.
I gave Dawn very little direction and a lot of creative control of our cake and it really paid off! I love Dawn's work and she knew what to do with the direction I gave her. The ...
taste of her cake is second to none and we made sure we had enough cake to enjoy for days after our wedding. No saving that stuff for a year in our freezer- we're getting another one made! YUM. You won't get a fresher, tastier cake anywhere. She makes her own buttercream fondant. I'm drooling typing this.
Cake Anatomy was amazing on every level. I requested a special rose design on each cupcake, and they turned out exactly like the picture I showed them. The raspberry swirl flavor w...
e picked out was to die for- one of our guests was apparently telling everyone they HAD to try one because they were so good! They even drove from Kaukauna to Green Bay the day after a snowstorm to deliver the cupcakes and did it on time. My mom and I went to a wedding show in the Green Bay area about a year before the wedding and sampled every single wedding cake we could- Cake Anatomy was definitely the best! I definitely recommend them!
Working with Cake Anatomy was wonderful. The service was great and the cake tasted amazing. We got a lot of compliments from our guests!
Dawn was extremely easy to work with and gave me exactly what I wanted for my wedding cake. I wasn't planning to get a grooms cake but I saw a picture of one of her many creative d...

ty. Dawn was great to work with and delivered on everything we talked about.
We had a custom designed 6-tier cupcake "cake" with two tiers of traditional cake on top. The design turned out beautifully and the desserts were delicious. They also made a birthd...
ay cake for us as we married on my sister's 14th birthday. That too was amazing! Their butter-cream frosting is to die for and their cake flavors are delicious! We opted for lemon, raspberry swirl, chocolate chip and chocolate chocolate chip for our cupcakes. As well as lemon poppy-seed and strawberry swirl for our top cake tiers. All of our guests enjoyed various flavors and we received many compliments
The cake was wonderful. Everyone loved the flavor, we had the strawberry swirl. It was also so pretty. I couldn't have asked for a better cake.
I lived in Little Chute at the time of our engagment. I drove past Cake anatomy a TON of times and dreamed of having them do our wedding cake. Just the name of the company intreigu...
ed me. I went to the wedding show at the PAC and didnt see her there. I knew deep down if I didn't go talk to her at least, I would regret it. Well, I was at the shop for 45 minutes talking. I had go to other places and was in and out in 15 minutes. The fact she sat there with me for that long was more than enough reason for me to use her services! Dawn is SO talented!!! Her cakes are SO delicious! She doesnt use fondant but makes her buttercream smooth like it. And the CAKE!!! We will be going back to her in the future for birthday cakes, anniversary cakes, and so forth. She makes you feel so comfortable! She also did a grooms cake for us and it was AMAZING! My husband was shocked!!! and loved it! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
My dream cake, easy to work with and delivered a beautiful cake that tasted great.
The cake was beautiful. done to our special instructions. It was moist and delicious.
Dawn did a beautiful job on our wedding cake! She really took the time to get to know us!! Her cakes are delicious and the buttercream frosting is to die for! I'm not a big cake-ea...
ter, but this was worth the exception! :)
MMM MMM the cake tasted amazing and looked stunning! however some misunderstanding about different flavors on different tiers.
I don't usually like cake and this cake was amazing! The buttercream frosting was so delicious and it looked exactly like the picture I bright in!!
Dawn at Cake Anatomy was wonderful to work with I can’t image using anyone else. She always made me feel like I was her only client, her fast response to emails, phone calls etc. ...
Dawn was able to create my dream wedding cake. We’ve heard nothing but great feedback from our guest about how wonderful our wedding cake looked and tasted. Anyone looking for a baker for their wedding must call Cake Anatomy Dawn is well worth every penny.
I didn't have any big issues with Cake Anatomy, although I am not one to let the small details bother me. However, as I think back, there were a few things that I would not have e...
xpected considering the price of the cake.
We did go in and have a cake tasting, which we did have to pay for. They have TONS of flavors and their buttercream frosting is awesome! I did really like the taste and variety of flavors! If you're going for taste alone, you should consider Cake Anatomy!
However, when I met them the 2nd time to go over details, I showed them what I was looking for...the look of ribbon going around the bottom of each layer with a bow and rhinestone accents. They ask that I go get the ribbon, which was not a big deal. Our colors were navy and orange. She told me to get a royal blue ribbon because the cake would make it appear darker once it got moisture from the frosting. Looking at the cake once delivered, however, it was royal blue. I am not sure anyone noticed, but it was not what I had asked for.
In addition, they had said that they would provide tulle and white lights for the cake table. It did have tulle, however, there were no white lights on the cake table. This would have added some sparkle to the dark reception hall.
Finally, they apparently brought a list of items that had to be returned to them, however, they did not give this to me. I am not sure who they dropped it off with, however, we did not see it until we were unpacking back home...2 hours away. They did allow me to mail the items back to them, but this was at my cost. The list also asked that we return tulle and white lights. Since I had white lights on other tables, I sent them a set back. After looking at pictures, I realized they never included them on the table. Therefore, I had sent them a set of my lights that I had paid for.
Again, none of these are big issues, however, considering the cost of the simple cake (no embellishments other than the ribbon and a sparkly broach), I would not have expected it.
Dawn did a great job, her cake is by far the best that we have EVER tasted!! I thought that I didn't care what we had for cake until I tasted these! All of our guests commented on...
them and raved about how good they were. We have been married for 3 weeks and people are still talking about them!!
Very easy to work with extremely creative designed the cake just the way I had pictured. The cake turned out to be quite unique and beautiful. We received numerous compliments ...
on the design and taste of the cake.;There was quite a difference between quoted cost and actual cost. The designer originally said specific things/services were included in the cost and then they were not when it came time for the wedding.
