Dana is simply the best! She made the most stunning three-tier wedding cake and an assortment of mini desserts for our special day, and everything was a showstopper. Each tier of the cake featured a different flavor combination, all wrapped in buttercream. The Italian Marble with espresso buttercream was the absolute standout—rich, indulgent, and unforgettable. Guests couldn’t stop raving about how good it tasted.
And the mini desserts? They were a total hit! From brownies to macarons, everything was polished off before the night ended. Dana truly earned major brownie points for making our wedding so sweet and memorable (pun intended).
If you’re looking for an baker for a special occasion that can create something everyone will love, Dana is the one!
What an amazing day and we couldn’t have done it without Dana and her team! Her dedication to details and telling our story through the tapestry of beautiful and tasteful cake sets her above the rest.
Dana’s professional manner and attentiveness to our desires and wishes made our day extra special, from the 3-dozen multi flavored cupcakes to the 3-tiered flavored cake drenched in silk and pearls, she simply is the best.
Our guests adored the cake dressing and many flavors for all to enjoy, and as bride and groom, we marveled at her ability to simply be flawless —— thank you beyond measure.
We are forever grateful for making the biggest day of our lives memorable for years to come.
Thanks,
Sy and Ethan
We had such an excellent experience working with Dana of Dana's Cake Shoppe for our wedding this past November! From our first meeting to our big day, she took the time to listen to our needs and interests from cake flavor, to design. Our wedding cake looked absolutely stunning and we have Dana to thank!
We were also given a complimentary cake on our 1 year anniversary! The thought of that is so generous and kind. The cake was also of large size and delicious! Hire Dana's Cake Shoppe for your wedding or event needs, you won't regret it!
Any questions?
We have been long time fans of Dana’s Cake Shoppe and love stopping to get a cupcake or a slice of cake, so when it came time to figure out cake for our wedding coming here was a no brainer. I am very picky on desserts, especially icing, and everything here is consistently SO GOOD - and our guests agreed! We ordered 14 dozen cupcakes, 7 different flavors, and a cutting cake for our wedding of about 100 people. We had cupcake boxes so guests could also take one home with them for later and we had just the right number. The ordering/coordination process was easy and for a tasting, we just went in and bought a bunch of things out of the case and ate them all! I highly recommend Dana’s for your next special event, or your random Tuesday afternoon!
Dana's cake shoppe did our wedding cake last September and they were wonderful to work with. They truly brought our vision for our simple white cake to life with the texture of the buttercream and added florals. From the tasting of all the cake flavors and fillings, to the set up of our beautiful cake, everything was wonderful! Our guests loved the cake and we're excited to order from them again for our 1 year anniversary!
We had a wonderful experience with Dana’s Cake Shop for my daughter’s wedding this August. The cake was both beautiful and delicious! I highly recommend them. We also ordered cupcakes, and they were just as tasty.
Despite coordinating with them from Asia while I was traveling, they were always responsive and accommodating. We enjoyed a fun cake tasting at their charming shop, where they presented us with a dozen flavors—all of which were so good, it was hard to choose!
Dana’s Cake Shop was also very reliable, delivering the cake exactly on time.
Thank you, Dana, for making our special day even sweeter! ❤️
We had such a wonderful experience at Dana’s Cake Shoppe! We ordered our wedding cake from Dana’s Cake Shoppe and it was absolutely delicious and created just the way we had asked. We had shopped around for the perfect place to order and we are so so glad we decided to move forward with Dana’s Cake Shoppe. We received many compliments from our guests “best cake we have ever had.” 100% recommend- 11/10
We could not be happier with the service from Dana and her team. We wanted the simple and elegant vibe from our cake and they delivered! Not only was it beautiful with the simple floral on the cake, but it tasted DELICIOUS! I’m excited to order our cake again to surprise my husband for our 1 year anniversary!
Dana was a pleasure to work with for our wedding this past year! We had a two tiered cake and a cupcake assortment to complement it and the flavor profiles we had were amazing. We took the snickerdoodle cupcake concept as a tier of the cake and it came out spectacularly. The other tier was composed of a marble cake with a delicious buttercream.
The tasting with Dana is absolutely worth it as well. You will definitely want to try the flavor options and she does the consultation herself.
Will definitely order a cake from here again for other occasions!
I can't express enough gratitude for Dana and her incredible team at Dana's Cake Shoppe. We found ourselves in a last-minute cake dilemma for our wedding, and Dana not only came to our rescue but exceeded all expectations with her exceptional service and mouthwatering creations.
Despite our tight timeline and the unexpected nature of our request, Dana went above and beyond to accommodate us. She not only managed to fit us into her schedule but also delivered a cake and cakepops that were nothing short of spectacular. We ordered five different flavors of cakepops for 90 people and a small cake, and Dana executed our vision flawlessly.
The variety of flavors offered by Dana's Cake Shoppe is a testament to her creativity and dedication to providing a personalized experience. Each cakepop was a delightful burst of flavor, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the incredible taste and presentation. Dana's attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in every bite.
What truly sets Dana apart is her willingness to go the extra mile to make her customers happy. Despite the time constraints and the last-minute nature of our order, she approached the challenge with enthusiasm and professionalism. The result was not just a cake but a work of art that added a sweet touch to our wedding celebration.
I am immensely grateful for Dana's help and impressed with the outstanding outcome. If you're looking for a talented, accommodating, and passionate cake artist, Dana's Cake Shoppe is the perfect choice. Thank you, Dana, for turning our last-minute cake needs into a masterpiece and contributing to the sweetness of our special day!
We used Dana’s for our wedding cake and it turned out fantastic! We went for the cake tasting and loved all the flavors, so Dana told us that we can use different flavor for each tier which was awesome. The cake design was exactly what we’re looking for and all of our guests commented on the cake and said it’s the best they’ve ever had. We cannot wait for our first anniversary so wean have another cak
We ordered our 2 layered wedding cake from Dana. We are happy with the taste, and believe it or not, we had no extra cake to take home after the wedding.
Our tasting experience was really fun. Dana is professional and did not make us feel rushed in making a decision on the spot. Highly recommend on stopping at her shop if you are in the neighborhood.
Most delicious and beautiful wedding cake we could have asked for! We had a 3-tiered, 2-flavored cake (marbled chocolate and lemon lavender), and we received many comments from guests that it was the most moist and scrumptious cake they’ve had at a wedding! Not too sweet, just right! Dana was very responsive throughout the process and even delivered and decorated the cake herself, which we didn’t expect! A+ service, would highly recommend!!
Used this adorable shop to do my wedding cake (Tier 2) and cake pops! We did red velvet and lemon lavender for the tiers. Dana was so nice to make us the lemon lavender flavoring after hearing how we wanted to incorporate our theme of lavender into the cake! Everything was so delicious and working with Dana was very smooth.
Dana's Cake Shoppe made our 3-tier wedding cake for our June 2023 wedding. It was both beautiful and absolutely delicious! All our friends and family are still raving about it. Behind the scenes Dana was great to work with and we had a really positive experience using this vendor for our special night!
We worked with Dana's for our June 2023 wedding and highly recommend! We got a two-tier cake that looked and tasted amazing, along with 72 cupcakes (4 flavors) that were a big hit.
Dana baked our wedding cake and cupcakes! It was such a pleasure working with her and her team. She answered all of my questions and provided great information when I was trying to figure out our wedding cake/desserts. The flavors were absolutely amazing; she even accommodated an egg allergy and baked/packaged separate cupcakes for my mom. My husband and I sometimes still go to her bakery for a treat, even my parents do now! I absolutely recommend Dana's Cake Shoppe to anyone needing baked goods for an event or even if you are just craving something for your sweet tooth.
We got a cake and cupcakes from Dana's Cake Shoppe for our wedding, and they were incredible! The flavors were amazing, the decoration was exactly what we asked for, and the cake & cupcakes were perfectly moist. Dana was wonderful to work with, too! We would definitely recommend working with Dana's Cake Shoppe.
Dana was a dream to work with. We hadn't bought a wedding cake before, and she had some ideas coming in to help us get the wheels turning. The tasting was very casual but very thorough, and she was very helpful as we finalized our vision. The end result was absolutely gorgeous, and it tasted delicious. We had no idea cake flavors could have such a rich variety. She had almond, which my husband absolutely adored. The vegan cupcakes were greatly appreciated so we could accommodate our guests and still give them a delicious cupcake.
Dana really got me out of a jam after my original cake baker ghosted me roughly 2 weeks before the event. Not only was she able to make a delicious and beautiful cake, but she made the whole process super easy for me. She's highly responsive and makes sure that you get exactly what you want. I very highly recommend Dana's Cake Shoppe. My friends and family are still talking about how good the cake was! My friend who is a wedding planner said it was the best cake she's ever tasted! You cannot go wrong with Dana!
Dana was great and easy to work with throughout the entire process! From the 1:1 time during the testing, and crafting a unique wedding cake, as well as to the easy phone and e-mail communication, Dana was amazing. The wedding cake and cupcakes were delicious, and loved by all of the guests! Would definitely recommend using Dana for your wedding needs!
Dana did a wonderful job on our 4 tier wedding cake! She was great to work with and she made our cake exactly how we envisioned it from our inspo pictures. The almond and lemon blueberry flavors were unique and our guests loved them. Thank you Dana for a beautiful wedding cake and flawless delivery process!
From the first taste test, we were sold. Dana’s cakes are unmatched, and the fact that we were able to mix and match various flavors to meet our flavor profiles. We did a combination of cake and cupcakes so everyone could have a flavor they would love. The cupcakes were a major hit, I even had people report back to me that they had multiple cupcakes because they were that good. John and I had decided very early on that we would re-visit Dana’s every year on our wedding anniversary to experience her cakes all over. If you are looking for a cake - Dana’s Cake Shoppe is the way to go. Hands down.
I found out about Dana’s shoppe through the facebook page six months prior to our wedding and reached out to her by text. She invited us over for a taste test. She put out several samples and recommended some combinations. It was amazing how flexible she and her staff were regarding our options. We knew we were in good hands immediately, and we left the shop with a bunch of freshly made cookies and treats in a box! We went back several times for treats in the 9 months leading up to our wedding day. There was always some new cookie or cake flavor that we wanted to try.
Our wedding cake consisted of 2 layers: a large pina colada base layer and a smaller chocolate layer on top. Combining those 2 flavours can be challenging, but they pulled it off flawlessly. Nearly every guest wanted a second round of cake.
Dana and her staff were very punctual, friendly and reassuring throughout the process. I would definitely recommend Dana’s Cake Shoppe as a first choice to all our friends and family.
My husband and I are SO pleased with our wedding “cake!” Dana allowed us to present a unique idea to her to and she didn’t even hesitate, agreeing to create this cookie cake in lieu of a traditional wedding cake. She was communicative and professional through the process and helped us decipher serving size options to help our venue determine how to cut the cake appropriately for our guests. Given the times, we (naturally) had to postpone due to COVID, and Dana swiftly accommodated our new wedding date. Not only is everything in her Shoppe delicious, she made our wedding day treat so special!! Our family and friends haven’t stopped talking about how much they loved the cookie cake! Thank you so much Dana, we will be forever grateful!
Our wedding cake was beautifully crafted and delicious. We chose two flavors (pina colada and banana salted caramel). We also chose red velvet cupcakes and French macarons for the dessert table. Everything was amazing. Dana was always response the process to choose a cake was made easier.
Ordered cake pops for a large birthday party—150 people. Cake pops were delicious! Order was delivered in a timely fashion and party attendees enjoyed both the chocolate and vanilla confections!! Highly recommend!
Very professional. Dana met with us. We were able to sample cupcakes that would suit the theme of our wedding. All of the flavors were delightful. We were pleased and the guests complimented the cupcakes as well. Thank you for the great service.
Best cake ever!! Personalized consultation and tasting with Dana was super helpful. Everything was delicious, and it was hard to choose! Ultimately we could not have been happier. Our cake was beautiful and delicious. Dana customized the cake to our colors and aesthetic. Could not recommend Dana’s Cake Shoppe more highly!!
More than one person told me that our wedding cake was the best wedding cake they’ve ever had! Our cake was beautiful and tasted great! The administrative aspect could be better (eg responding to emails & phone calls), but Dana was easy to work with and helped us figure out exactly what we were looking for. Our cake arrived on time and intact. And it was delicious! That’s what I was looking for in a wedding cake!
Best cake ever! Super delicious, moist and the aesthetics were perfection. The cake was exactly what we described for the vision we had at our wedding. I loved that we were able to do different flavors for each tier as well, and so did our guests!
Dana was a pleasure to work with and our wedding cake was gorgeous AND delicious! It was everything we imagined! Thank you!!
Excellent wedding cake shoppe; 5 Stars *****; Dana was great to accomodate our last minute request for an elopement in DC . The cake was delivered beautiful and delicious! Fantastic! She really helped make the event special.
Stop searching, choose Dana's Cake Shoppe if you are getting married anywhere near Leesburg. I contacted Dana with less than a month before we needed a wedding cake for a hastily re-scheduled pandemic wedding. I am not the bride but was helping get details in order. Dana was responsive and willing to work with us on short notice. With few details and modest guidance Dana created an amazing cake. It was delivered in perfect time, beautiful, and equally important - delicious! As an added bonus, we ordered individually wrapped macarons for our guests. The looked elegant and again - delicious. No hesitation to give full endorsement of Dana and her bakery for your event.
We picked Dana’s Bake Shoppe after our baker cancelled one month before our wedding. We explained the situation and she was more than happy to do the wedding. My daughter picked just a two tier cake for pictures and cutting. It was a pina colada cake which was ABSOLUTELY phenomenal.
The cake was so moist and it had a fresh pineapple filling with a buttercream frosting.
We decided to do a dessert bar for the guests which included fresh fruit tarts, chocolate eclairs, cannoli, napoleons, assorted cupcakes. We received so many compliments all night long. If you need a bakery for all your needs…please check her shop out and try all of her pastries. Thank you again Dana for answering all of questions within a few minutes of an email.
Also, thank you for doing such an amazing job and the beautiful display.
Beautiful cake for our wedding day and very tasty. Recommend for your wedding day
My wedding cake was a true dream come true! From the tasting to the final product Dana was amazing to work with. The bakery was wonderful. I have never tasted better flavors in my entire life! The tasting was so sweet and personal and we were so happy to mix & match and bring my ideas to life. Everyone raved over the cake and we barely had any to take home! Her communication and true skill showed through in a cake I truly cannot wait to order again.
Dana and all at Dana's Cake Shoppe are the best! Our wedding cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious. The cake was GORGEOUS- exactly what we envisioned. Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious it was! We received many, many texts and comments about how it was the best wedding cake they'd ever eaten at a reception. We enjoyed our leftovers for days! We're already looking forward to the next reason to celebrate so that we can order another delicious creation from Dana. Do not hesitate to book with Dana!
Dana was absolutely wonderful to work with. The cakes we sampled were all delicious and the final product was a real star of the night. We had numerous guests come up and tell us it was the best wedding cake they’ve ever had. I would also be remiss not to mention the sugar flowers that Dana made for the cake which were just beautiful!!
We just needed a simple cake and other assorted desserts for our wedding and Dana and her team delivered! Dana was very attentive to our needs and our guests loved the results!
Excellent wedding cake shop! 5 stars! We couldn’t have been happier with our wedding cake. First of all, we really enjoyed our tasting session with Dana. She explained all of our options and answered all of our questions. We also loved trying all the different cakes – so we were sure our guests were getting exactly what we envisioned. On our wedding night the cake arrived beautifully decorated and exactly as advertised. It was just what we wanted. And of course all guests loved it and kept eating more! If you want your guests to rave about your wedding cake for days after the wedding, order your cake from Dana's Cake Shoppe. Thank you Dana for the excellent product and service!
Cake was delicious and beautiful! Highly recommend!
Absolutely loved working with Dana to create the perfect selection of sweets for my engagement party. Dana is very creative and her work is amazing. From flavor to aesthetics she really wowed us. I ordered a 2 tier cake and it was very fresh and delicious. The top tier was a lemon cake with strawberry icing and the bottom tier was a coconut cake with fresh pineapple. I also ordered chocolate covered strawberries and a variety of macarons. Dana was extremely helpful every step of the way, and provided her expert opinion and advice on flavors and decor. Highly recommend this bakery and will definitely work with Dana again for my wedding!
Dana made a beautiful cake as well as 2 dozen macarons for our daughters engagement party. Highly recommend the lemon elderflower and raspberry combination! Delicious!
Dana made us a DELICIOUS cake for our parents’ 60th anniversary. We sent her a picture of their wedding cake from 1959, and she even decorated our cake like the original! It was beautiful. Our folks were so touched. Most importantly, it was the best tasting cake we have ever had.
I highly recommend Dana and her lovely cakes.
i was so excited when i finally found dana's cake shoppe!! she was super nice and so fun to work with and she really helped me and my fiance (now husband haha) find exactly what was right for our wedding. we tried her cakes at our tasting and they were PERFECT! we ended up picking the pina colada cake for our flavor. dana executed the simple design that we picked very elegantly. once again, i am very happy we decided to pick dana's cake shoppe! she was also nice enough to gift us a complimentary anniversary cake and we are really looking forward to that!
Awesome! Our guests raved about the cake even asking if it was real because it was just that perfect! Dana was great to work with and communication was always so fast! We wanted a cake that would be a centerpiece and not like every other cake we had seen and she did just that. She designed a cake especially for us. The cake was also delicious, I only wish I would have ordered more so that we would have had leftovers!
Dana’s Cake Shoppe is perfect for any occasion- wedding, birthday, anniversary.... Everything is made from scratch with all fresh ingredients from cakes, cookies, macaroons, cupcakes...whatever your heart desires Dana can make it. She will spend quality time with you helping you design your perfect desert for your special occasion. I know first hand. Dana helped me design a wedding cake for my friends’s reception. The cake was amazingly beautiful and extremely delicious with chocolate ganache and raspberry cream. After three months people are still talking how fabulous Dana’s cake was. You will not be disappointed. Dana is the best!!!!!

Dana was beyond amazing. She addressed our questions, concerns, and calmed our nerves. Thank you so much for bringing our dream cake to life. And don’t let me forget to mention how delicious it was. Thank you for your professionalism, service, and great care for us. We deeply appreciate it

By far one of the easiest and best decisions we've made in our wedding was having Dana make our cake. It was reasonably priced, and tasted absolutely amazing, and not to mention looked so beautiful- simple and elegant. Would 10/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding cake, or for any event for that matter. Loved working with her and will definitely be using in the future! Love love LOVE!!
I can't give enough praise to Dana. She is amazing. Dana’s Cake Shoppe was the perfect pick for my wedding cake and desserts! The simple elegance of Dana’s designs are amazing and the smoothed buttercream looked flawless.The cake flavor combinations were unique and delicious. Dana worked with me to make sure I had everything I wanted for the wedding, I truly appreciate her. I would recommend using her for your wedding or next event!
From start to finish, our experience with Dana was a pleasure. I was totally clueless when it came to wedding cakes, and wasn't sure exactly what I wanted but she made the process easy and fun. She is extremely responsive, I bothered her with MANY questions and she would always get back to me and was always reassuring. The tasting was great. I love that she pays attention to little details and you can see she really takes pride in what she makes. It was important to me that our cake looked pretty but also actually tasted good. Our cake was devoured at our wedding with not one piece leftover, and I got many comments from guests saying how good it was and asking who made it. It was a pleasure working with her and we can't wait for our complimentary first anniversary cake!
Dana truly wow'ed us with her spectacular cake-making abilities. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it was absolutely delicious. A big hit among our guests! Just note there's a small $25 cake tasting fee, which I thought was absolutely worth the money... she can mix & match different flavors to make it the cake of your dreams. Highly recommend!
Our wedding cake from Dana’s Cake Shoppe was so good! After we had our tasting there, we knew we'd need Dana to be our wedding cake maker! We got 3 different flavors to suit the varied taste of the guests and everyone raved about the cakes! We were even told by many people that it was the best cake they'd ever had. The buttercream frostings she makes are so fresh and deceptively light, not like a lot of the frosting you'd find anywhere else. The design was exactly what we asked for! The cakes are fluffy and fresh and are a pure delight. We can’t wait for our complementary anniversary cake!
We definitely highly recommend Dana’s Cake Shoppe for your wedding cake!!
Oh my God! Dana's Cake Shoppe made the cake I've always wanted and more! My hubby and I were so happy that we chose Dana to make our cake because it was amazing... We got the elderflower cake with the mixed berries and lemon 😉 She was a fantastic person to work with and she stuck with us as we changed our designs, quite frequently. Thank you so much Dana :) We both cant wait to order our anniversary cake!! I 100% recommend!!

Where do I start? My wife and I got married on September 6, 2018. From our cake tasting to subsequent communications to the wedding day...Dana was a pleasure to work with. She was always professional and friendly and replied in a timely manner. As is common, I was worried about the cake arriving to the venue on time and had nightmares about whether or not the cake would melt before we could see it. I know...completely logical. #weddingnightmares
Fortunately, the cake was there on time and looked and tasted better than we could have imagined. If I had to do it all over again, I would hire Dana to make the same exact cake. My wife and I have ZERO complaints. We definitely recommend her and sent our photographer and guests away with her business card.

Hi Sheena,
I’m so happy to hear you loved everything!! It is always wonderful to hear that our couples had an amazing experience from start to finish. It is great to hear everyone loved them as well! I definitely hope to see you soon for your ...
special occasions in the future. Best wishes!
Dana
Dana did an absolutely amazing job with my wedding cake. When I saw it at the reception for the first time, I didn't want to cut it because it was so pretty. She did such a great job with the design so it turned perfectly that it was everything I could have hoped for and more. The cake flavors there are amazing and they have some really unique ones. My three-tier cake ended up being a layer of almond cake with blackberry and lime, a layer of chocolate raspberry, and a layer of caramel spice. It was so good and everyone at the wedding LOVED it!

Hi Kaylee,
I’m so happy to hear you and your guests loved you cake! It was wonderful to be a part of your special day. We look forward to seeing you soon! Best wishes.
Dana
Dana provided the cake for my baby shower and it was absolutely perfect! I had provided a photo from Pinterest of the cake I was seeking and she mastered it. The top tier was peanut butter butter cream and the bottom was strawberry buttercream. All of my guest for my baby shower raved that the cake tasted wonderful. She delivered the cake as well which made it super convenient for everyone since my mother and mother in law were hosting the shower and aren't familiar with this area. I would highly suggest Dana to anyone as she is wonderful to work with and is truly talented in mastering complex two-tiered cakes.

Our birthday cake was so DELICIOUS!!! Guests were all talking about how good it was!! Dana is so patient, professional and responsive every step of the way! She was such a pleasure to work with. When ever I have a big occasion, I turn to Dana for the best cake. I have ordered around 3 or 4 times from her and everytime she surprises us with the taste and the perfect design. I can say she is an artist no doubt about that. Just let her know what your taste buds are craving and she will do the rest! Overall, delicious desserts and outstanding service! Highly recommend!

Hi Wasila,
Thank you for letting me be part of your occasions! It’s always nice working with you! That is wonderful to have you as a part of Dana’s Cake Shoppe’s family for so many years. I hope to see you soon! Best wishes.
Dana
I placed an order for a custom cake for my baby shower and it turned out to be the most beautify and tasty cake I’ve ever had. I provided just one picture and a few details to customize the cake and Dana executed the idea perfectly. The theme of my baby shower was the little prince and as you can see from my pictures, the cake brought the whole theme and presentation together wonderfully. The cake was so flavorful and received many compliments from the guests at my baby shower. From the moist cake, the delicious frosting, to the strawberry filling and even the fondant (which is usually not very edible at other places) – it was simply perfect. I highly recommend Dana’s Cake Shoppe for any custom cakes/pastries – working with her was a pleasure. Her response time to all my questions was great, and the cake was ready for pick up very timely! Thank you, Dana!!

OMG when I saw the cake I couldn't believe my eyes. It was designed like Mosaic to represent our organization, Mozaic. The second cake was designed like the logo of our new project. I described to Dana the nature of our event, Refugee Kitchen grand opening, then left the whole mission to her. She did great job.
The cake went beyond everyone's expectation when we tasted it. it was different flavor in each level. The taste of the fruit cake was heavily good. It melted in my mouth in a very rich taste. Every guest gave similar comment.
Dana, thank you for making our Grand Opening event such a great start. I recommended you to all of my beloved friends and family.
The cake was not only GORGEOUS but delicious too! Easiest part of all our planning, once we chose what we wanted we didn't have to worry about ANYTHING. One of the most talented and creative cake artists out there. Will definitely recommend to everyone we know!

When my fiancee and I were looking for wedding cake vendors, Dana truly stood out. Her flavor choice and her designs were magnificent. At our tasting, Dana was just amazing. She worked so professionally, yet so kind and loving. The second we chose her, we knew we made the right choice. She created the cake I wanted exactly the way I wanted and I couldn't be more grateful! Thanks Dana for providing us with a cake to remember :)

I ordered from Dana and loved every bite! The cake I ordered couldn't have been better! On the outside, it looked like something straight out of a magazine and the inside was simply divine.... Recommend her 1000%

Dana's cakes are a work of art. I am so happy I chose her to make my wedding cake. It was the highlight of my reception. I chose a lemon with a strawberry buttercream which was a delicious combination. The cake was very moist and even the fondant tasted good.
When I first saw the cake at the wedding, it took my breath away. It was absolutely perfect..
I highly recommend Dana's Cake Shoppe for your weddings future brides!

Working with Dana was AMAZING! She produced a beautiful and very yummy wedding cake for my recent wedding - my husband and I ate the top tier already (we couldn't wait the whole year lol) and our guests have continued to share how delicious our wedding cake was! On short notice, Dana was able to help us when our first cake baker was suddenly unable to produce our wedding cake. I was able to meet with Dana within the same week to discuss a new wedding cake. I told her our budget, detailed my vision for the cake and also explained that neither my hubby nor myself were really "cake people" - she was unafraid and produced a cake that was exactly what we asked for, plus more! Now, we need to plan more events that involve cake so I that I have an excuse to order more delicious treats from Dana's Cake Shoppe! Brides, go place your order now, I'm so glad I did!!
