For Goodness Cakes

s. As a type-A bride, I had TONS of ideas for our surprise groom's cake and wedding cake. I actually sent Haines a PDF with inspiration, and she was all about it. She took my inspiration and created incredible sketches that really brought the cakes to life. During our wedding weekend, everyone was absolutely blown away by what Haines made. She created a replica of my husband's record player as the groom's cake - none of our guests could believe it was cake, and it was the talk of our Rehearsal Dinner! For the wedding cake, she made the most stunning sugar flowers I've ever seen, which we now keep under a display case in our home. Haines truly is the best and I cannot recommend working with her enough!

ecialty cakes are dry and overall, not good. This definitely wasn’t the case! We did two layers, the top layer was vanilla and fresh cut strawberries. The bottom layer was her chocolate decadence. There was only enough cake left over for a small to go box for my husband. I’ve never seen a crowd devour a cake the way they did with this one! What a hit! It was also perfectly created. Exactly the way I envisioned. I showed her a couple pictures and she nailed it! Thank you so much for such a perfect creation! I will definitely use For Goodness Cakes again!

e lace on my dress to create the floral icing design on the wedding cake. And she nailed the groom's cake that was a surprise for the groom. She created a perfect design of his fraternity house. All of his fraternity brothers were SO impressed! The best part about Haines is how reasonably priced her cakes are for how awesome they turn out.

parents really appreciated being included on the tasting :) You can scroll through the website's gallery or look at the portfolio, and quickly know how talented and creative Haines is, but her kindness, patience, and professionalism is what sets her apart from the rest. My groom and I have a different 'sweet tooth' so we divided the tiers into two different kinds of cake: an almond cake with raspberry/cream cheese filling, as well as a vanilla cake with caramel filling... they were both a hit at the reception. Everyone loved both flavors, and it was nice to have a choice. DELICIOUS and BEAUTIFUL!!!

most beautiful cake and it was fabulous-even better than my go to. She was able to match the design of the cake to my veil and the monogram matched the font on our wedding invitation. It was perfect.

ooked and looked at cakes and really wanted a pink ombre color palette and finally found a swiss dot design and we discussed it and she sent me a sketch which was perfect! So after a fall meeting and signed contract we didn't have to worry about a thing, and 8 months later it tasted spectacular and looked absolutely beautiful!! Haines made beautiful gum paste anemones for the cake topper and made sure that they were the perfect navy centers with a touch of pink- just beautiful!!

ded line drawn lace detail to match my dress. It was a teal color (to match my bridesmaids dresses) on a white ground and it was exquisite. The flavor was an almond pound cake with cream cheese and raspberry filling with buttercream icing. I'm still fantasizing about the buttercream icing. Amazing!

our first anniversary!

ake (the top being ours - lemon also). The carrot was my absolute favorite - the only problem was - it was everyone elses too and I didn't get any! Oh well, next cake I need - I know where I am getting it.
