Gloria is beyond talented and knowledgeable- she designed our dream wedding cake and was such a joy to work with. She offers the most incredible variety of flavors and our guests and other vendors could not stop telliing us that it was the best cake they had ever had. It was so good that despite having a five layer cake, it was gone very quickly! Among all the vendors we talked with, Gloria was the only option that was well out of town; however, we would make the same decision over and over again. We could not give GT Treats higher praise! Thank you for everything Gloria!

A Dream Wedding Cake Experience!

The cake itself was a masterpiece – not only was it visually stunning, but it also tasted divine. Each layer was perfectly moist and flavorful, and the design exceeded our expectations. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious it was!
What stood out the most was Gloria's dedication to making our vision come to life. She listened to every detail we wanted and added her creative touch to make it even more special. Gloria's customer service was top-notch, always responsive and accommodating.

I was the MOB, but went with my future son in law to do the cake tasting. From the FIRST BITE of carrot cake, I was sold. And I don't even like carrot cake. But let me tell you...
-the cake was delicious. Particularly the lemon cake with blueberry filling (all fresh) was unbelievable. Super lemony, and refreshing. The buttercream was delectable as was the cream filling in a luscious chocolate. We had three 3 layers and each was a delight. I was super happy because most leftover cake came home with me as the newlyweds kited off on their honeymoon. WIN!!

If I could give more stars, I absolutely would! I first met Gloria at the Meet Me at the Alter Wedding show held at Churchill Downs. Other cake decorators had these ornate displays...
of inedible cakes and their samples were bulky and forgettable, but Gloria? Her cakes stop you in their tracks! From the humble stock White cake to the refreshing Lemon cake to the quintessential Kentucky Woodford Reserve cake, GT Treats cakes are second to none. Never have I tasted a white cake paired with an icing that has blown me away as effortlessly as Gloria's cakes.
For my wedding, I ordered a single tier White cake with Strawberry filling and 50 filled cupcakes for my little intimate wedding. The pricing was reasonable, the decoration was flawless, and the taste was heavenly. I STILL receive Facebook message from my friends asking about that cake. Every member of my family requests a GT cake for their special holidays.
If you want a cake that not only stuns in looks but will be as unforgettable as the special day you are serving it on, Call Gloria. Close all the other tabs and call her today. She is incredible to work with and you will not be disappointed.
