When my husband and I went to Creative Cakes for the taste testing, we were treated with respect and were given suggestions. We've tried their cakes in the past at family parties. We decided to get flavors we've never had at those parties though. We had 3 flavors: chocolate cake with chocolate fudge and fresh strawberries; carrot cake (our favorite!), and chocolate with espresso cream. I really liked the simple design we chose but I wish I had some flowers placed on the cake as the design seemed to look too plain in pictures. However, I highly recommend them for any event near that area.
Creative Cakes is AMAZING!! they make the absolute amazing cakes ever! We did a Disney themed wedding but wanted it to be elegant and fairytale like; not childish! We went to Creative Cakes shared a picture of a cake we liked and Cheryl added her thoughts and made it her own creation! We were so impressed with our wedding cake the day of! The flavors were delicious and the decoration was exactly what we wanted! Thank you for making our cake amazing!
We used Creative Cakes many years ago for a Bar Mitzvah. There is a reason this company has been around forever--quality & service. We were glad to use them again for my daughter's wedding. Had tastings at 4 or 5 other bakeries but this was by far the best, so fresh & flavorful. We chose 3 different cake/filling combinations and every one of them was delicious! Many of our guests commented how it was the best cake they've ever had. Cheryl was amazing and helpful and less expensive than the others. Highly recommend.
We were referred to them by our venue (cake was included in venue price) the cake was exactly what I wanted and was delicious!
My cake was PERFECT! Beautiful and delicious. Thank you for such a beautiful addition to our wedding!
Our wedding venue recommended Creative Cakes as a preferred vendor, and my husband and I are extremely pleased with the beautiful and delicious cake that was created for our wedding day. Cheryll was great in setting up our cake tasting, where we were able to select the frosting, flavors, color, and design. What a pleasant cake tasting experience! In communications leading up to, and after, the cake tasting, Cheryll was extremely responsive via phone and email. Our vision was to have a simple and elegant 3-tiered cream colored cake with a frosted pearl border. Final wedding cake flavors were: 1) bottom tier: marble cake with chocolate mousse; 2) middle tier: carrot cake with cream cheese frosting; 3) top tier: red velvet cake with raspberry mousse. Creative Cakes took our vision for our wedding cake and made it into reality, including incorporating silk flower decorations that we brought into the cake shop before the wedding. We are beyond thrilled with how gorgeous the cake turned out, and we highly recommend Creative Cakes!
After finding out a month before the wedding that our original vendor was going out of business our venue suggested we try Creative Cakes. We were a little nervous with some of the reviews we read. Our tasting went great and the cakes were moist and had tons of flavor. Not only would they do the cake flavor and filling we wanted they had several additional options the previous vendor did not have. The vendor going out of business was really a blessing. We got the cake we wanted along with additional upgrades for well under our budget and way less than our previous vendor wanted. Creative Cakes did a fantastic job and our guest loved the cake. Very thankful we get an anniversary cake since somehow we missed getting an actual piece minus what we did for the cake cutting. So happy with our experience.
Our original cake baker fell through, due to a terrible medical issue, last minute and we had to find something fast. Our venue spoke with Creative Cakes and they agreed to work with us last minute. We were obviously heart broken to have to be doing this three weeks before the wedding and we hoped for the best. When we arrived the woman seemed completely uninterested in assisting us. In fact we had an appointment and she basically threw the samples down in front of us and ignored us. She spoke with a random walk in about cupcakes and answered the phone and chatted with someone in the back but couldn't be bothered to work with us. This might have been acceptable if the cake was good but it was generic at best. They tasted like grocery store cakes, and they only offered six basic flavors. We felt completely defeated and disappointed. Luckily after speaking to our vendor they found us another bakery who was wonderful. Their cakes may be pretty but as for taste... Might as well save some cash and get a grocery store cake.
Creative Cakes was recommended to us by our reception location, Celebrations by Turnip Rose. When we went fpr our tasting,were very professional. They let us take our time in selecting our flavors. I liked how their cakes and frostings were served separately because it allowed you to try other combinations of flavor, other than the ones they had made that day. The quality of the cake was very good, not dry at all. Cheryll recommended a gorgeous cake with sugar "ice" crystals all over it which complemented our bride and groom penguin cake topper perfectly.
A cake from Creative Cakes was included in our wedding package, and we were delighted with the cake. The tasting experience was fun and intimate at their location and the cake that we chose looked beautiful on our wedding day. And the best part was the taste of the cake! Since we had 3 tiers we got to choose 3 different cake flavors and 3 different fillings and all of the combinations were so delicious. The filling and the frosting was sweet, but not too sweet and the cake was just right - not too light and not too dense. We look forward to returning for our one-year anniversary to get our fresh cake top and are also happy that we don't have to have it taking up room in our freezer for a whole year!
We just got a small 10" cutting cake. I don't like sweets so I'm not the best judge, but the people to tried it said it was delicious! We also asked for it to be dyed light purple inside and it turned out beautifully.
Gorgeous, delicious, exactly what we wanted!
Loved our cake so much!
They did a lovely job on our design, but it's almost like they went off the first email I ever sent them and then didn't look at the notes THEY had personally written down when we went in for our tasting. The design had branches and birds, and we said "no birds".
The person we were speaking to wrote it down.
Our cake rep then suggested that they could put silver dots along the branches to add to our silver, black, & white theme. We loved the idea!
She wrote it down.
We went over all the flavors & fillings we liked, and as we told them to her... you guessed it.
She wrote it down.
The big day came and we had... birds... no silver dots... and the filling inside the cake was "kind of?" what we asked for. The cake itself was fine, but the layers of filling inside were whipped cream (which I HATE, and I told them that at the tasting) and a VERY THIN line of the flavors we'd actually chosen for the filling (none of which were white, so I knew something was off immediately when I saw that). It was almost like they forgot about the filling flavors and then realized their mistake after putting in the cream, and just put a thin layer of the filling we'd originally wanted in on top of the cream to try and cover their tracks.
For taste, you can't beat this place. The cake is moist, very tasty, and considering it's included with the AWH package if you have your wedding there, you can't beat the price. But honestly, if you're not even going to go back and look at your notes, skip the pretense of writing them down in the first place. At least then I know that when I get my cake, it won't be what I'm expecting.
Thank you Creative Cakes for nailing our dream cake in taste and in aesthetics! Love, Felipe & Lissa Maldonado
We went for the cake tasting, not expecting anything spectacular because of all the other weddings we had attended, wedding cake was never anything extraordinary. However, once there, we were amazed at how delicious their cakes were. They had so many flavors of not only cake but also of the filling that we were torn between several choices. Wendy, our representative at Creative Cakes, was very patient with us and gave us plenty of time to make our choices. She was also really great to work with and helped us design the cake of our dreams! On our wedding day, we were so happy with how everything turned out and tasted. As an added bonus, Creative Cakes bakes you a new "top tier" of your wedding cake on your 1 year anniversary! I would highly recommend working with Creative Cakes.
Beautiful and perfect cake for our wedding.
Creative Cakes was amazing! My husband and I wanted a Naked Cake for our wedding (no frosting)and were having a difficult time finding a bakery who would do that. Creative Cakes went out of their way to make sure that they could do our naked cake and to make sure that it wouldn't dry out! Not to mention the fact that the cake flavors and frostings were absolutely delicious! Our cake turned out both beautiful and yummy! I would definitely recommend Creative Cakes for a friend's wedding!
The cake was so good! I changed my mind a million times and they were always so patient with me! I could not have asked for a better group of people to trust with my wedding cake/cupcakes!
I had used Creative Cakes for birhtday cakes and other events but this was my first time obviously using them for a wedding. The tasting was so fun. There must have been about 15 frosting and about 10 cake flavors to choose from. All were delicious and we were able to tailor our cake and make it special and ours. We had 3 flavors on 3 tiers and their even let us do whatever design we wanted. We had a baseball themed wedding and that meant we wanted a baseball themed cake and that is what they made us. It was amazing and I still can't believe how amazing it was. Great staff, great prices, but more importantly the cake is delicious ..
Creative Cakes was awesome and very accomodating. They have a super easy process- just call and make an appointment for tasting, they let you try as many combinations as you want, and help you pick the perfect cake. Our cake turn out beautiful and exactly how I wanted it! The cake was included as a part of our wedding caterer package- so the coordination was very easier.
they did a great job on the cake. and the custom design. it turned out just the way we wanted
This vendor worked with my venue, so the price of my cake was included with my overall food costs. Because they worked with Dove Canyon, I didn't have to worry about deliver or serving. Everything was handled. We did a cake tasting, which went just fine except they didn't really spend a lot of time with us and one of their employees tried to sell me his side DJ service, too. They had a basic showroom, primarily with pictures and a few display cakes. I actually chose a cake right when I walked in the door. When it showed up, it was exactly as it was supposed to be. I didn't contact them a lot, but after we'd done the tasting, there wasn't a lot they needed from me as they worked with the venue.
One neat thing is that they do an anniversary cake so you don't have to worry about freezing the top layer.
As soon as we walked into Rockwells I saw the cake that i wanted. The tasting was amazing and everything was beautiful. The cake arrived looking exactly as i had imagined and tasted amazing.
We brought in a picture and the cake turned out exactly how we wanted. It really was a work of art. I would definitely recommend Creative Cakes!
Not the friendliest at first, but definitely do great work! Just how I asked for the design and taste to be! Great selection of flavors and beautiful work. Would definitely have them do another for me!
My experience with creative cakes was nothing but positive. It started with the cake tasting, they had multiple flavors of cake and filling for you to come taste which were delicious (and I don't even like cake!) They did such a wonderful job customizing each tier of the cake exactly to how you want it and make sure you leave satisfied. The day of the wedding the cake looked amazing and was everything we could have ever wanted, and they even send you a replica of the top tier on your 1 year anniversary!
Rockwell's was one of two options given to me by my venue. I was going to go with the other option simply because they had a good name in my area. Everyone else loved the other vendor and that was fine with me. One less choice to worry about (I thought). However, my mom suggested that I tried Rockwell's just so I utilize my options so I set up an appointment. I am so happy I did! Their cakes were 10Xs better than the alternative and I couldn't get enough. My now husband, who doesn't like cake very much, ate ALL of the cakes we received during our taste test. He loved the cake and wanted more. We had a four tier cake with each tier having a different flavor and filling. We also get a free cake on our year anniversary so we didn't have to freeze our top layer!
The cake was gorgeous and just as I had imagined with one exception: they didn't use the ribbon we had saved when I ordered the cake. My wedding was aqua (tiffany blue) and they used a turquoise ribbon. My husband & I were probably the only ones who noticed but instead of being absolutely perfect there was the question of "why didn't they use the ribbon that was specially saved for our cake?" It's more the principal of saying you're going to do something and following through than having an off colored ribbon on your wedding cake. It tasted wonderful and looked spectacular otherwise, even surprised me with edible glitter on the cake and edible flowers which was done to perfection. Why the ribbon mix-up?
The Yummiest Cake you will ever eat!!! We even bought a grooms cake we had three different flavors it was so hard to choose our guest favorite was lemon cake with raspberry filling our guests are still asking about it they wanted to take our 1 year anniversay topper but this great company makes you a fresh one on your anniversay date how great!
Our wedding cake turned out beautiful!! Rockwell's was able to take pictures that I gave them of my vision of our cake and turn it into a masterpiece!! Our cake was amazing!! Both the look and taste of it were spectacular!! I would definitely recommend Rockwell's to anyone getting married!!
The cake looked amazing, the colors and the design were perfect matched my entire wedding! Each layer had its own flavors and was loved by everyone!
Cake Tasting was awesome also!
we loved our rockwell's cake! the purple on white colors came out lovely, and they took care of the transport to our venue. it was so tasty that it left my groom wishing for more after we polished it off after returning from our honeymoon. the cake layers we had were marbled and the frosting was buttercream. the fillings were a different one for each layer- the raspberry was especially our favorite. the tasting was fun too!
We ordered a specific cake and decoration and were so excited for the day to come. I had designed the perfect cake, but when I saw it I was disappointed to see that all that work was for nothing. It looked very plane, they didn't put any of the rhinestones that we had planned at all. It was a basic ribbon around the cake with the brooch I had purchased. However, it did taste great. I didn't get to eat much because I was full, but the bite I had was VERY good.
I had so many compliments on my cake. They loved my cake. Everyone just had to know where we bought our cake. I was super pleased.
Creative Cakes is a great company to work with. They are personable, they listen to your ideas and don't try to sell you on anything. The cake flavors were amazing. I even had them make a groom's cake for my fiance as a surprise and it turned out great!
Loved this place! Our cake was DELICIOUS and beautiful!
At the tasting its so hard to choose bc everything is so good! They give you space to taste it all and decide instead of hovering and making you feel rushed. They created exactly what we wanted and it was so yummy!!
We chose to go with Creative Cakes for a couple of reasons. They honored our appointment. We didn’t have to wait for a table, unlike at Cinderella Cakes (another place we were considering), where we had to wait awhile until a table was available for us. It felt more like a first come first serve kind of deal, rather than an appointment with Cinderella Cakes.
We also felt like Creative Cakes was a classier place. For their cake tasting, they had us sample 5-6 (each) of cakes, fillings and icings, and all of these were nicely placed on a rectangular glass plate. Unlike Cinderella Cakes where they gave us one paper plate with just a few samples on it. They really didn’t make much of an effort to get us to go with them.
For our wedding cake, we decided to just go with a simple 4 tier ivory cake. We didn’t want fondant icing all over the entire 4 tiers, but we did have them add some fondant draping on each tier. Since all of the icing wasn’t fondant, we thought the icing wouldn’t be very smooth, however on the day of our wedding, we were so impressed with how the cake came out. The icing was so smooth it looked like fondant! With the glass cylinder stands and fresh flowers our florist provided, our cake looked so beautiful! Many guests said our cake looked amazing, and they also said the cake was as delicious as it looked. Now we can’t wait for the anniversary cake they’ll be sending us…some of our friends already asked if they can have a piece!
Loved loved love my cake. Not only did it look pretty it tasted delicious. We had two tier cake. One tier was marble cake with chocolate frosting and the other tier was chocolate with white chocolate frosting. Just wished I could have tried both tiers.
We contracted with Rockwell's as a suggested vendor for our venue. They were much cheaper as part of the package so we were a little skeptical - but felt better after the tastings. I have to tell you that I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED my cake. I could not be happier. It looked EXACTLY as I had envisioned in my mind - modern, with limited but exact detail. And they NAILED it. It could not have been more perfect. And perhaps even more importantly, it tasted FABULOUS! I'm not a fan of wedding cake but this was superb. Guests were happy, photos look great, and the service was fantastic. Can't recommend them enough.
Rockwells Creative Cakes are awesome. They came with our venue, and they are so helpful when you go to the cake tasting. You can bring in pictures, ideas, anything you want. They can pretty much do anything! the taste, color, design, decorating, everything about the cake was perfect! :)
My cake came with the price of my wedding. We had a choice between 3 bakeries and I knew from the start I wanted Rockwells. I used to work for a catering company and have had my fair share of wedding cakes. Rockwells was always my favorite. I gave them a picture of what the look I wanted for my cake and they did such a great job pulling it off! It was beautiful!! And more importantly, absolutely delicious!!! Can't wait for our one year anniversary so we could have another slice!! Yum!
We went with a 5 different kinds of cake, 5 tiers, with their signature white chocolate curl design! The cake itself was a center piece! The guest actually stopped at took pictures of it when they walked into the ballroom!
And not only did it look amazing, every layer was Delicious!
Creative Cakes was wonderful to work with! They cake tasting is worth the trip! We are even going to be receiving a free first anniversary cake from them! No frozen cake top!
Thrilled with their service and quality! Will definitely go back for any type of occasion!
their cakes are amazing! they are so pretty and taste so good! everyone was raving....they are expensive though.
Our cake was included in our package from the hotel and they sent us to two different locations. The first place was horrible. Their cake options were just ok and their service was even worse so when we went over here we did not have high expectations but they blew us out of the water. They had more options for both the flavors and frosting and their service was great! They made us feel like they wanted to help us have our perfect cake for our day! I'm still very impressed with them.
Our cake was included in the package from our venue so we were a little worried that it was going to be some 'hole-in-the wall' bakery that they used. Boy, were we wrong. Rockwells, now Creative Cakes, was absolutely wonderful. They were very flexible about the flavors and designs we wanted. I came in with a couple pictures of what I liked and they hit the nail on the head. Thank you Creative Cakes for a beautiful and delicious wedding cake!
The cake was beautiful and SO delicious! We got compliments on each tier and the overall design of the cake. They were very easy to work with and very creative with their ideas.
The service was great and the cake was moist and tasty! Cheryl was terrific and helped us create the perfect cake for our wedding. The tasting was fun and easy and we love the fact that we get a one year anniversary fresh cake. Everyone loved the cake and it was absolutely beautiful.
Its a cute little shop but they do great work. The tastings were fun and they were very patient with us. The cake looked so pretty when i saw it. And so we dont have to freeze our cake, they said they can bake us a small cake of our wedding cake for our 1 yr anniversary =)
The cake came out beautiful and it was absolutely delicious. On your one year anniversary they give you a complimentary cake as well.
The cake was amazing and so so delicious. Highly recommend them! Got the cake through my wedding package.
So delicious! So beautiful! The cake was so good. Wish there were leftovers!
Our cake was delicious and beautiful!
Rockwell's really surprised me with the cake. We didn't want anything fancy, just a ceremonial cake. We served sheet cake for the guests, and they loved it. It was tasty and moist, even a week later! When the cake was delivered on the day of our wedding, I was so pleasantly surprised at the end product. I took so many pictures of it, and even saved the top tier for later (I wasn't planning on this, but I wanted to save it b/c it was so cute). I would highly recommend using Rockwell's. Good value, and great quality.
This cake was included in our package with The Turnip Rose.
The morning we had gone for our cake tasting I had thought I lost my engagement ring so we were a little distracted. We were able to pick 2 flavors for our 5 tier cake (red velvet and lemon with raspberry gel and bavarian cream) and send in our monogram.
Everything looked and tasted wonderful.
Loved the cake - ate the entire plate of cake samples and frosting when we went in for our tasting. Yikes! We ended up ordering cupcakes and a six inch round cake so we would have something to cut into. We used jewel shaped edible stones to add a little detail on to the ivory colored buttercream frosting. It turned out beautiful and we got a lot of compliments not just on the presentation, but on how they tasted as well.
If you do go with cupcakes, I recommend finding a cake stand on your own. They charge $150 just to rent the stand. I was able to find a cardboard stand on http://cupcaketree.com. My mother-in-law spray painted it ivory and put ribbon along all the edges - you couldn't even tell it was cardboard! It easily held 130 cupcakes.
My only disappointment with Rockwell's is that we ordered three flavors of cupcakes - red velvet, white and carrot - and we only received two of the three flavors. A little bit of a bummer especially when I'd been telling people that we would have three different flavors to choose from! Other than this, I'm glad we selected them to do our wedding.
They made the most beautiful and yummmy cake ever!!!! i had an idea what i wanted and they deliver exactly how i imagine it to be. the cake was really good too...not too sugary or bland.
the shop is so amazing too...it exploded with wedding cakes!
Wonderful cake!! When my (now) husband and I went in for our tasting, we got to sample about 8 different cakes and 8 different fillings - all of which were amazing! We had such a hard time deciding on what kind of cake we wanted. We decided to go with red velvet with cream cheese mousse for 2 layers and white cake with strawberry mousse for the other 2 layers - so good! The cake didn't look exactly how I pictured it to be, but it was still beautiful. I would highly recommend Rockwell's!
Our cake from Rockwells was soo beautiful and tasty too! We went for our tasting, they were super nice, picked our cake, and walah! it arrived at the reception on time and perfect. Great job Rockwells!
Great Cake and great design
We went to a tasting at Rockwell's but did not end up choosing them for our wedding. The tasting experience was great - they let you taste a bunch of different cake flavors and frosting flavors, so you could mix and match to see what worked for you. The displays in the shop were very helpful for seeing examples of styles and sizes. The staff was very helpful in walking us through all the decisions to be made, and very upfront with their opinions and experiences. It also seemed like a reasonable price. Unfortunately we did not end up going with them because the cake itself did not amaze us - it was good, but not "the best cake ever". However, it may have just been the small servings they have set aside for tastings. I would still recommend Rockwell's because overall I had a very nice experience there.
Rockwell's doesnt have a a huge selection of cake flavors, but the ones they have are good!
Unfortunately they did not do the wedding cake i' asked for. It was 4 layers, top and bottom round with the two middle layers square and off set...well when i arrived at the reception the cake was all square and no offsetting! The biggest disappointment was the decorating of the cake...the scrolling was not very good and looked nothing like the picture i sent.
If you have a cake you want immulated, i would not suggest using Rockwell's to create it!
The service here was wonderful when we went in to taste. All of the display cakes were amazing and tasted good too! My cake turned out beautifully - the only bad part was that we had chose certain different cakes for each layer and it ended up that they didn't follow our order. Either way I would highly recommend!
The lady that took our order was very friendly and assured us they could created whatever we envisioned. Unfortunately they did not make one of the layers of the cake blue, instead they made it white, thus not producing the full affect of the cake in representing our wedding colors. The cake tasted great though!
THE STAFF WAS WONDERFUL. THE CAKE TURNED OUT BETTER THAN I EXPECTED. THEY EVEN ADDED AN EXTRA LAYER TO ACCOUNT FOR THE UNEXPECTED INCREASE IN GUESTS. VERY ORGANIZED.
So So So yummy! I have used them for birthdays babyshowers and my bridesmaides used them for my wedding shower. Can be a little expensive depending on what you get.
Just as we wanted. The cake was beautiful, lovely and the price was a good value. :)
Cake looked fabulous and was a unique design. Had dark and white chocolate curls on it.
