Cecilia's Cake Shop

eet cake for the kitchen to cut and serve immediately after the cake cutting. Everyone complimented us on how wonderful the cake tasted and we recommend them to everyone!

hat we wanted the cakes that were sold at Last Resort (our favorite restaurant) to be part of our wedding. Our initial consultation with Rick Villaveces went really well. He was helpful and knowledgable – and the cakes were less expensive than we anticipated. After the initial consultation, however, it was harder to get in touch with him or have him respond via email (which, if you're planning a wedding while also working an 8-5 job, you realize that email becomes your preferred method of communication – plus, it's always nice to have things in writing). When it came time to let them know our cake flavors I never received a response back to my email, so I had to call to get it recorded. On the day of the wedding, we received a groom's cake that vaguely resembled to the one we ordered, but not quite what we asked for. The wedding/bride's cake looked pretty similar to what we asked for, but the presentation wasn't as nice as I had hoped for. That being said, the TASTE is amazing. You really can't ask for a better tasting cake, and at the end of the day the cake is supposed to be eaten not oogled, so we would 100% use Cecilia's again. I'd just suggest making sure you really go over exactly how you want your cake to look, and go for a more simple design so that you're not disappointed when you receive it.

e specifically the white velvet raspberry! Heaven!!!

l dinner, which were beautiful and tasty too! will gladly order from them again!

different. They want you to get the best for your money. Everyone that had the cake raved about how amazing it was.

our least responsive vendor.

ught it might be too expensive to have a cake from Athens GA delivered to John's Creek but ended up being very affordable and cheaper than the local bakeries. People are still talking about my cake. I am still hording left overs in my freezer. It is so dense but moist, perfect combo.

as well as fondant pearls - none of which I asked for- we wanted a simple elegant cake.

t cake they have ever tasted. My husband and I chose Spanish Lemon because the flavor is so light and delicious! She sells her cakes at Last Resort (another Athens establishment), try a slice for yourself!

best I have ever had. They are moist and flavorful with light and fluffy icing that isn't overly sweet. Our guests are still raving about how good the cake was!

e, so it was only rough-iced, no decorations. We put peonies and antique roses down the side of it. Absolutely beautiful and delicious!

ncluded a groom's cake as well). If you want a really fancy decorated cake with really fine details, this may not be the place for you. They did a great job with ours, little cute blobby birds and flowers, but if you want something realistic or high-end artistic you might want to shop elsewhere. Our cake was adorable, and sooooo delicious, so if you go simple and value taste, Cecilia's is perfect for you.

cannot begin to rave enough on how good Cecilia's cakes are. She makes all of her cakes from scratch, and they are so rich in flavor. They are more like a pound cake, so dense and moist. My cake was a white velvet with a raspberry filling, and my husband's was a chocolate cake with chocolate filling/icing. Everyone LOVED them! And they looked nice too. Both cakes turned out exactly as described, and we were both pretty happy with them. The only drawback I have is that you don't deal with Cecilia herself. The wedding coordinator for The Foundry is your go between. This was not a problem in my case, because she was very good about getting us any details/information that we needed. It can just be a hassle sometimes to manage things third-person. Also, my husband's cake was not very large but required some fondant work. Despite this fact, I still thought the price was a little high, having previously worked in a bakery myself. Overall, though, the cakes were fabulous, and I can't wait for my anniversary so I can enjoy them again!

ck over to the cake table.

answers to the puzzle all the guests received. Unfortunately, you couldn't even read the words and it was smaller than we requested. I would go with a different vendor for more original cakes.

we had layers of raspberry filled and Italian wedding with buttercream icing. The groom's cake was Kahlua flavor with fondant icing. They made it to look like my husband's skis based on pictures we e-mailed. We did order too much cake, but my mom was really worried that we wouldn't have enough. I would just say to listen to them and order what they say based on the number of guests you plan to have. The service was great, everything was on time and fantastic!
