Cake tasting was great. Had such a large selection of flavors that it was quite difficult to pick what we wanted. In the end, we made the perfect pairing and the vision was perfect. Even at the last minute we forgot to bring the berries the day before the wedding - she definitely delivered. We brought the berries early in the morning at the venue and it came together so well. Loved it.
Our wedding cake was perfect and exactly what we envisioned. It was tasty and looked immaculate. As an out of town bride this service was exactly what we needed it to be! Thank you!!
Using Cakes and More was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding! The cake was absolutely delicious, and Cynthia was so attentive to her customers. She truly cares about making each couples' day special! Soooo many people complimented our cakes, one of my bridesmaids said she had seven pieces! Cynthia was super flexible and easy to work with. We had leftover cake after the wedding, and it stayed moist for a long time! 10/10 would recommend!!
Initial meeting with her was not the best. She did not want to give us any ideas or recommendations based on our vision. She only wanted to see pictures and said yes it is possible or no. We were open to different ideas and did not want to just copy something off of pinterest. She was also very rude to another prospective customer that came in during our tasting.
After a few other consultations with other bakeries, we changed our whole vision and found a cake design we wanted instead. Out of the other bakeries we had tastings with, Cakes and More had a superior flavor. We ended up going with Cakes and More mainly due to the discounted rate we got with our venue if we selected them.
Ten days before the wedding, we had to provide Cynthia with our updated guest count. She said she would make the changes to our paperwork. I then asked if the size of the tiers would change and she said no. She was super dodgy with how we would have the increased number of servings with the same 3 tiered cake from our original quote. Cynthia then decided she would change the size of one of the tiers but that it would go over our 120 guests and I would be required to pay extra. She was not willing to work with us. Unless I had asked how the cake would change, she would have pocketed the additional money and left the number of servings the same (which was a lower guest count).
Overall, she needs to work on customer service skills. Her cake is delicious but her attitude is poor.
Cynthia was super helpful during our meeting to design our wedding cake. She was extremely knowledgeable and we could tell she had been baking wedding cakes for many years. She gave great advice and we were so happy with how our cake turned out. It tasted delicious and we got so many compliments from our guests!
Our cake was delicious and beautiful! It was the perfect amount and we are so glad we chose Cakes and More!
We loved working with Cynthia for our wedding cake! The cake tasting experience was incredibly personalized, and she made a sketch while we met to ensure she knew exactly how we wanted our cake to look from a design standpoint. She decorated the cake with flowers beautifully, and the cake was delicious! We will probably try to get a small wedding cake from her again to celebrate our first anniversary.
Going to Cynthia's cake shop to design our cake and have a tasting was so much fun! Our cake was absolutely beautiful AND delicious. I don't normally like cake but I loved this one and our guests couldn't stop talking about our Almond and Amaretto cake. Cynthia is truly an artist and was able to help us design a beautiful cake.
We absolutely loved our cake from Cakes & More and enjoyed working with Cynthia! She was helpful and easy to work with. Our cake was DELICIOUS and exactly what we asked for. We gave Cynthia an inspiration photo and told her we were going for a "fall theme," and she gave us just that. We also had SO many compliments from our guests. We highly recommend Cakes & More!
Cakes and More was recommended to us by our coordinator and it was absolutely the best choice we could've made! Cynthia was so sweet, engaging, and helpful in deciding what would work best for what we were looking for. The cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious, and we received so many compliments from our guests!
Cynthia is so kind, warm, and inviting! We booked our wedding cake pretty late, about 2 months before our wedding, and she was able to accommodate us. We went to a few cake tastings, but as soon as we had her cake, we booked immediately! We tasted different cakes with different fillings. She described each flavor in detail and gave us recommendations on how to pair them. She even drew out the design of the cake as we were talking about it! Another thing I loved was that Cynthia took pictures of us on my phone during our tasting, just so we could take a moment to have fun and document memories! How sweet is that?! Our cake came out beautifully and was DELICIOUS. I cannot wait to break into our top tier on our first anniversary!
In terms of cakes, I'm not super big into buttercreme frosting and prefer whip icing. Cynthia is definitely the go-to person for this. From our email interactions setting up a cake testing to the actual cake, we felt the warmth from her and knew it was an easy decision for our wedding cake and groom's cake. The cake tasting was PHENOMENAL. She was thorough in what each flavor was and how it could be paired. She also took pictures of everyone to remember the occasion. Also, the actual wedding cake was gorgeous and delicious. We enjoyed her cake so much, we even tried to hire her for another event. 10/10 would definitely recommend her and her services.
I’m telling you, I searched for a while for a good wedding cake vendor. I found it overwhelming tasting all these crazy wedding cakes from expensive places.
Cynthia does classic flavors done perfectly at a fair price. She is truly a professional.
We had a cake tasting with her a year before since we live in a different country, but she was able to squeeze us in during the holidays when we were visiting.
Our cake was four different flavored tiers, absolutely beautiful and tasty. We froze the leftovers and still enjoy it!
Cynthia was fabulous to work with. Like the best vendors, she has a transparent, non-aggressive approach to sales.
She was honest about availability being limited for our day, but did not pressure us to sign the contract immediately. We were able to think it over for about a week, while we tested other options.
She let us sample each cake flavor and helped us talk through total needs and general design. The citrus cake and strawberry filling was positively addictive.
We had 75 servings of cake in 3 different flavors including grooms cake. Our total cost was under $550 despite the delivery cost to Hill Country area.
Our shaped cake had buttercream outside. This was great as we were able to avoid the artificial sickly sweet flavor of fondant common to other vendors. The buttercream is important to plan around as you may need to store the cake carefully in case melting is a risk.
Only caveats are minor, cake tasting is only on two days of the week. I hope she gets her website running again soon. She is excellent but the website issues did scare me into contacting to double check that I did not need to book a substitute.
Cynthia was great from day one - she made our cake tasting session so fun and special. Not to mention, her flavors were so phenomenal that we ended up having 3 different cake/filling combos for the different tiers of our cake. We got so many compliments from our guests! Would definitely book again.
Cynthia was lovely! Made us a delicious and stunning cake for our wedding. She also treats you like family! 10/10 Would recommend.
Cynthia made our wedding cake last weekend and it was amazing!! All of our family is Polish so their expectations when it comes to baked goods are very high. They were all very pleased and said it was the best cake in America they've ever tried! We went to 4 different bakeries before we found Cynthia and we almost gave up having a wedding cake. Everything else was way too sweet, tasted artificial, and the prices were way too high. Cynthia's cakes were not only the best tasting, she was also the most affordable. Hiring her was a no brainer and we can't recommend her enough!
Our cake was delicious and Cynthia made our delivery seamless. The icing was coconut based dairy free which was great for a DF allergy and tasted amazing! Thank you!
Cynthia was awesome she was very helpful during the cake tasting and during our wedding day, the cake looked spectacular! Not only did it look great but it was delicious. I will definitely consider for future events!
Sylvia was amazing from start to finish!! We loved that she guided us through the whole process. The payment process was super flexible with any budget! Sylvia was extremely honest and told us what to tell our venue to make sure we got back all of our cake! We totally recommend her for any event!!
Cynthia is so sweet and very talented. The cake was so pretty, but most importantly so tasty. All of our guests were complimenting the cake. She did an exceptional job on the groom's cake as well.
Our wedding cake was exactly what I wanted and so beautiful! The groom's cake was just as good, too. We got so many compliments about the cake after the wedding! Everyone loved it.
Cynthia did an AMAZING job on our cake and it was so delicious! She translated exactly what we wanted and worked with Elvia at Belle Fleur, the florist next to her shop, to help make our vision reality. We planned on saving our top layer for one year anniversary and it accidentally got served at wedding, she said she’d make us a fresh one next year on the house. She goes above and beyond and we just really appreciate her!
Cake couldn't have been more perfect. I had been to many weddings with dry cake and I was worried about this for ours. Not only was it delicious, it has lasted us well into two weeks since! Just as good as the first day.
A most beautiful cake and delicious too.
Cynthia’s cakes are amazing! She gives great customer service and is always wanting to exceed your expectations! Everyone kept raving about our wedding and groom’s cake and for sure I’ll be seeking her services for future events.
Everything we wanted and more!!! Cynthia is truly amazing at what she does! We designed a one of a kind look for our cake and seeing it day of was like a dream!! Not only did it look good but dangggg did it taste delicious!! Cynthia is such a good person and friend, it was such an honor to have her be apart of our big day!! Thank you so much to Cynthia and her team! It was absolutely perfect!!!
Cynthia with cakes and more was fantastic! The cake options were endless, and all so good. Picking our cake was probably the hardest part of our whole wedding because everything was just delicious. We went with a naked cake look and we received so many compliments over the look and the taste. Definitely coming back for more of their baked goodies in the future.
The most amazing taste. They took my idea and made it into a reality. The perfect everything. It was my dream cake
Blown away by Cynthia’s cakes! They were not only beautiful but also so good! We had a naked marble cake for our wedding cake and then an Italian Creme cake for the grooms cake that was decorated as a golf course. She was so easy to work with, which was especially important since I was planning from out of town and my mom had to do most of it. 10/10 highly recommend!
Amazing! The grooms cake was the star! Everything was perfect and delicious!
Holy crap! Cynthia is AMAZING!! She was able to fulfill my dream of a beautiful and tasteful wedding cake. From the initial taste cake to seeing our final product at the wedding was absolutely perfect! We got each layer of our cake a different flavor and filling- it was awesome! So flavorful and ADDICTIVE!! I cannot wait to eat our top tier on the one year anniversary! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
My husband is not a big cake fan, but Cynthia did such an amazing job with the decor and most of all the taste that he couldn’t resist. The guests still talk about how much attention to detail Cynthia and her team had for the cake. It was impeccable and the taste was unforgettable. Cynthia, you went above and beyond! Thank you so much.
My husband and I are not crazy about cake, so we decided to change our wedding cake to be more our style for that day. Cynthia made us an incredible cheesecake for us and cheesecake cupcakes for our guests. It is hands down the best cheese cake I have ever had and we cannot wait for our one year anniversary cake. My sister and brother-in-law initially did our cake tasting for us since we were living 2,000+ miles away and they could not stop saying great things about it after they tried it and neither could our guests after the wedding.
The lady that runs this bakery is the sweetest. I went to two other cake places before settling on this one. It wasn't the cheapest, but her attention to detail was impeccable. She drew out the cake of my dreams. And it was the most beautiful. And OMG yummy too! Purple ribbons and cascading snowflakes down it. And the groom's cake was a Nintendo controller and she nailed it! Also, since we weren't keeping the top tier, she is baking us a free 1st year anniversary cake! Awesome since we didn't get to eat too much of it at our wedding, just the piece that got smashed in my face. ;)
Cynthia was amazing. She made our cake tasting so much fun. I’m not much of a cake person, but everything she had us sample was so good it made it hard to choose! When we finally did choose, everything was amazing. My cake design was just as I pictured it, and we got so many compliments on our cake. It was beautiful.
Our cakes came out better than we imagined! My husband wanted a sports cake and it came out so detailed and looked amazing. We also chose a different flavor for each layer of our cakes which our guests loved! Everyone said it tasted delicious!! Highly recommend!
We chose a wedding that was on display in her shop and what was delivered did not look like it. The five tier cake ended up looking one tall stick.
Cakes and More did our cakes wonderfully not only did they look truly amazing they tasted absolutely wonderful! We are so happy with how they turned out and will definitely be using them for any cake needs in the future.
Our cake was absolutely amazing! It looked so beautiful and tasted just as good! Our guests were thrilled with the result!
Our cake was the best cake I've ever had. Our consultation was great and she offered us a full palate of cake flavors, fillings, and cream fillings to choose from and suggested different combinations to try. The cake was moist and made from scratch. The best part is you get to design the cake with the baker and it came out exactly like we drew on the page. The pricing was wonderful and if we could get another cake from there, I totally would.
The cake was DELICIOUS, ya'll! As soon as my husband and I did the cake cutting and gave each other a bite of the cake for pictures, I knew I had to get a slice for myself. I received many compliments days after the wedding as well.
My daughter’s wedding cake and the grooms cake were out of this world delicious and beautiful! We loved working with Cynthia. Being from out of town, she made all of us feel at home. She created the perfect cakes for our daughter’s day!
Delicious cake!
We were so excited about how our wedding and grooms cake turned out. They did an amazing job! Our guests complimented about how beautiful and unique they were. It was definitely worth what we paid for it. We were impressed from the first time we met with Cynthia. We would recommend Cakes and More to anyone looking for a cake for their special occasion.
Our cakes were absolutely beautiful! We received so many compliments on how well done they were. Everyone loved the taste. I was thrilled to be able to have a gluten free option so I could take part in the cake cutting with my husband! We have already recommended cakes and more to our friends!
Another delicious and beautiful cake by Cynthia! We used her before for another daughter's wedding and hired her again!
We received so many compliments on both cakes for our wedding. Both tasted and looked incredible. Cynthia was a pleasure to work with as well. We highly recommend them for any event!
Cynthia was extremely professional since the first day I contacted her. She was extremely flexible and considerate of my work schedule in regards to our tasting. She is very professional and passionate. Cake tasting was such an amazing experience, she took photos of us, and explained everything in detail. She made the process and experience very smooth. The tasting went so well, we had such a difficult time choosing 1 flavor, we ended up with 3 flavors. Our wedding cake was beautiful and received so many compliments. Guest are still asking me; where we got our cake from. Cakes & More is definitely our new favorite bakery and I will be ordering from them for all our events moving forward. Our experience was lovely and the cake was delicious. You will have no regrets!
Our cupcake tower was beautiful and I was so happy with how they turned what I imagined into reality. Everything tasted amazing!!
Beautiful and delicious cakes!! Cynthia was a pleasure to work with. She was very professional, helpful in helping us making decisions, and easy to contact. Cakes and More was recommended to me by my best friends, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone else!
The cakes were delicious! We had a bridal cake and a groom's cake. All of our wedding attendees enjoyed them and gave a lot of compliments on them. Cynthia and her team are great to work with.
Cynthia was amazing to work with! She is so sweet, when we left we felt like family! Our cakes were AMAZING! Cynthia did the most amazing Yeti Cooler cake for my husbands Grooms Cake, with Mahi next to and sticking out of it. It received SO many compliments! My cake was just as beautiful. I wanted succulents and flowers, but did not want live ones in the cake. She made the most beautiful succulents and flowers out of sugar paste, so I got the look I wanted. AND OMG! The citrus cake with Strawberry frosting was To Die For! So many guest had seconds because it was just that good! Thank You for the amazing cakes!
Cynthia was amazing! I didn't know what I wanted and Cynthia took the time to sit with me and draw out my ideas. The end result was a beautiful, delicious one of a kind masterpiece! Each layer was a different flavor and design. She also did an awesome job on the grooms cake.
Cynthia is amazing to work with and her cakes are outstanding. We didn’t have a clear image of what we wanted for our wedding cake and Cynthia took the time to ask questions and help us design our cake with our colors and theme in mind. She has many fantastic flavors and we couldn’t choose just one! We had a three tier cake and chose a different flavor for each tier. We can’t wait for our one year anniversary to have our top tier!
Amazing cheesecake! For our wedding, my groom wanted cheesecake for his groom's cake. That was probably the best cheesecake I have ever tasted and our guests thought so too. Everyone continues to rave about how good it was! Cynthia was great to work with. She is professional and willing to help. You will not be disappointed!
Cynthia did a great job for our daughter's wedding. She's very creative and flexible. Travis loved his groom's cake, a 3-D football helmet. He did not think it was possible. And the cakes were DELICIOUS. Not ALL wedding cakes taste good! Many are dry! Hers were amazing. And she gave us a very good tutorial on sizes, and tiers and how to order just the right amount. They were beautiful. Thanks, Cynthia!
We scheduled a tasting with Cynthia about 10 months prior to our wedding date- and after that appointment, we didn't schedule another one. We booked her that day. The cake tasting was so easy and laid back. She was patient and answered all our questions. With all of the stress of planning, she made our tasting fun (and very yummy). Our cake came out gorgeous, and even better tasting. People were asking if there was any to take home at the end of the night. I cannot wait until out anniversary to eat our top tier!
When multiple people write in your guestbook, "Best wedding cake I've ever had"...you know it's good. I seriously cannot wait to eat the top tier of our cake on our one year anniversary. It was THAT good. Thank you, Cynthia!!!
Cynthia did an excellent job!! She worked with me and made sure that my cake was everything that I wanted it to be and more. The decorations were beautiful, and most importantly it tasted amazing! I would definitely recommend this bakery to anyone looking for beautiful and delicious cake.
