Goldenrod Pastries has been happily catering to weddings in the Lincoln and Omaha area since opening our doors in 2015. Our roots were established in 2014 through a blog written by owner Angela Garbacz, that she later turned into the bright, brick and mortar that it is today. We are pretty passionate about cake, and especially love creating cakes for life’s most special occasions.

I am absolutely delighted to highly recommend Goldenrod Pastries for their exceptional professionalism, artistry, and incredible talent in creating our wedding cake.
From our very...
first consultation, the team at Goldenrod Pastries impressed us with their clear communication, creativity, and attention to detail. They took the time to understand our wedding vision, offered thoughtful design and flavor suggestions, and ensured every element of the process was seamless. Their professionalism and genuine enthusiasm made the entire experience enjoyable and completely stress-free.
Our wedding cake was an almond cake with buttercream frosting, and it was nothing short of perfection. The design was elegant and timeless, complementing our wedding décor beautifully. Each layer was moist, delicately flavored, and perfectly balanced in sweetness — the kind of cake that made every guest go back for seconds. The buttercream frosting was light, smooth, and absolutely delicious, adding the perfect finishing touch to an already exquisite dessert.
The Goldenrod Pastries team handled delivery and setup with flawless precision, ensuring the cake was presented beautifully and ready right on schedule. Their commitment to quality, artistry, and care was evident in every detail — from the flawless presentation to the unforgettable taste.
For any couple seeking a bakery that combines refined craftsmanship, incredible flavor, and true professionalism, I wholeheartedly recommend Goldenrod Pastries. Their work is as beautiful as it is delicious, and they truly go above and beyond to make each couple’s vision come to life.
Thank you tremendously to the entire Goldenrod Pastries team for your exceptional work, creativity, and kindness. Our almond wedding cake with buttercream frosting was absolute perfection — both stunning and delicious — and we’ll cherish it as one of our favorite memories from the day. 💕
