k - the cake was AMAZING. We had a longer engagement and took our time, so didn't book many vendors on the spot, but as soon as we had her cake at the tasting, we knew we had to book her right then so no one else snagged her for our date!!! The best cake I've ever had - and our guests kept talking about it too!! My husband keeps staring at the 1-year anniversary top layer in the freezer and I have a hunch it won't make it to 1 year lol! The cake was absolutely worth every penny, we are so happy. We had a simple cake but I know that you can definitely trust Laura with anything you envision - she is so talented! Cannot thank her enough!!!!!!! You will be so happy to pick her for your event!!!!

After looking at probably a thousand cake designs online, we just couldn’t find one that was stylish and had a little bit of a music flair that my daughter wanted for her wedding. That’s when we asked Laura to help come up with a new cake d...
esign. She was so exciting to work with and creative too! She came up with using a musical note lace surrounding every other layer. This is a newer technique that is very hard to do unless you are an excellent sugar artist like Laura! My daughter also wanted a “chandelier” look, a little bling, one layer that lit up, a few music notes, and shades of pink flowers. The cake top combined a bass clef and tremble clef to make a heart. I was so excited to see this cake come together and be gorgeous and colorful as well! The whole cake was real and everyone loved the taste. The owner of the hall also commented how she could tell all the cakes from Elegance in Sugar when they are cutting up slices in the kitchen because they smell so good. Her guest count is very accurate and they can cut very good pieces to serve without being short on slices. I never seen so many guests take pictures of the cake! The bridal party loved the cake so much that they wanted to eat more the day after the wedding and so we finished the leftovers for lunch! You don’t have to worry much about the taste, setup, design, or quality when you buy one of her cakes! Love, Love, Love the work and effort that go into making this day special for my daughter! Highly recommended!

Laura was the only element of the wedding I didn't have to worry about. In our initial meeting, she welcomed us into her home, provided samples of the cake with milk, drew out ideas on paper AND created a model of what we were going for right i...
n front of us. This ended up being the most beautiful wedding cake I've ever seen AND the most moist and delicious cake I've ever tasted. Laura personally delivered the cake and set it up the day of. I, the bride, took a peek into our space while everything was getting set up. Laura came over, calm as a cucumber, gave me a hug, congratulated me and went back to work. This cake had to be moved during our reception twice and Laura assured us, this wouldn't be an issue. It wasn't! I trust her immensely and am so thankful we found her.

so happy to see them being used, because they are stunning. After sampling Laura's cake at a local bridal store, I called her and set up an appointment. She has a certified kitchen in her home and her home is very clean. I was a bit nervous about going to her home, but she is extremely proffessional in the way that she does business. She had made more samples for my mom and I to taste, and even a sample for me to put in tupperware and fly home to my fiance. The samples were delicious! You may pay a little bit more for Laura's cakes, but they are 100% worth it. She makes her cakes the Thursday before your wedding and then decorates. Most other places, will freeze your cake for a month or two before ever decorating it. Laura's cakes are moist and delicious for days after your wedding. I can't wait to eat my anniversary cake! Also, the hall which I had my wedding, Pennas, insist that you serve her cake instead of having it out at a dessert bar. They insist because her cakes are so good. They say you can usually smell her cakes when she is dropping them off. As soon as I decided to allow Laura to make my wedding cake, it was the one thing I was always certain would be great, My design turned out perfect, my guests loved their cake, and I was so happy on my wedding day!! Thanks again Laura!!!
