Crushcakes & Cafe

We were blown away by how beautiful our cake turned out, and how reasonable the pricing was! We chose a strawberry cake, and it tasted like one of those dessert that you great grandmother spent hours making in the kitchen from scratch. It wasn't too rich in the slightest, and so... Read More far it looks like it's holding up well in our freezer for our one year anniversary (well, what's left of the cake anyway). Emily, thank you for the delicious cake at our wedding. We are so happy went with you!

We are so pleased with our experience with Crushcakes. They offered a wide range of options to fit our budget & guest size, and our cake came out beautifully. Emily made the process so easy, from general inquiries about pricing and process, to setting up the tasting, to updating... Read More our order and to communicating design details back and forth to get the look just right. Our guests also loved the cake flavors. In a time when many couples are choosing dessert alternatives to a show-stopping cake, I am so happy that Crushcakes was able to make this lovely tradition part of our special day without us breaking the bank. Thank you, Crushcakes!

Emily at Crushcakes was amazing from start to finish! She made planning a breeze, the tasting was so much fun, and everything was perfect on the day of the wedding! Delicious cupcakes, beautiful setup, and stress-free communication.

We ordered our wedding cake from Crushcakes and were very pleased! The cake tasting was a blast – we ultimately chose the tiramisu flavor, which is delicious. The cake itself was gorgeous and delivered flawlessly to our wedding venue. At the venue, it was decorated with flowers.... Read More It looked beautiful and it tasted delicious! Thank you, Crushcakes!!

Crushcakes’ cupcakes have long been a favorite local indulgence of mine, so they were an obvious first choice for me when it was time to select a wedding cake vendor. While I knew from past experience that the product would be delicious, I was less certain about the level of... Read More customer service we could expect. Taking care to explore all the options (and eat all the cake!), I scheduled tastings for several other bakeries in the area. Crushcakes not only proved to be the best tasting cake, as I expected, but they were very responsive to our inquiries and were able to deliver to our reception site when others were unavailable. My concerns about customer service turned out to be entirely unfounded. Of course, because my husband loves pie as much as I love cake, we quickly became excited about the idea of offering guests a choice of cupcakes or pielets (or both). Hallie at Simply Pies offered us a great tasting experience and was happy to develop our idea of an off-menu s’mores pie (which turned out great!). We finally settled on 3 flavors of pielets from Simply Pies and 3 flavors of cupcakes from Crushcakes, plus a full, single-layer cake for me and a regular-sized pie for him. It was a lucky coincidence that just as we were ready to finalize our choices, the two businesses joined forces. Understandably, Simply Pies was nearly impossible to reach during the transition, but we had a wonderful experience working with Emily at Crushcakes. From ensuring that each pielet was topped with a heart-shaped crust (previously discussed with Simply Pies) to helping me narrow down my cake-themed Pinterest board to the decorating option that seemed to best encompass my vision, she took care of every detail of our order. Our resulting array of miniature cakes and pies was both beautiful and delicious.

Unexpected Winner!!!!

I don't have the biggest sweet tooth, so when it came time to get a cake for our wedding, I felt like I could just close my eyes & pick a flavor. We tried another bakery, which shall remain nameless, and it was very dry. We decided to do a tasting at Crushcakes because the... Read More pricing was in our budget, they had simple wedding cake designs & good reviews. The cake was AMAZING! Blew my mind, wow, cake can be this good! On our wedding day, the cake was my favorite thing that I ate all day. We got sooooo many compliments about how good it was. I am giving them 4 stars for service because when we arrived at our scheduled tasting, the person we made the appointment with was out sick so we had to wait about 15-20 minutes before we could talk to someone. It wasn't the end of the world, nor their fault. With that said, their pricing is a great value for the quality of the cake, so it all worked out in the end. We had a 2 tier cake & fresh flowers. On choosing a style, they asked us to email them a photo & they did a pretty good job copying it. They also have pedestals that you can buy or rent for the wedding, so if you are doing a small cake for cutting an another dessert, you can put on a pedestal to make it look more grand. Highly recommend!
