About this vendor
I Want Pretty Cakes exclusively makes custom cakes and cupcakes and all of my
designs are one of a kind. My philosophy is simple, every cake and cupcake should
taste as good as it looks! Because I make only a limited number of cakes a month to give every cake special attention and care, we strongly suggest emailing or calling us to set up a tasting and consultation appointment.

gn a cake that perfectly matched our theme.
The cake was absolutely stunning. We went for a vintage-inspired look with gold accents, and Preeti brought it to life beautifully. The sugar flowers looked so realistic, and the gold detailing was elegant and intricate. It truly felt like a centerpiece.
Not only was the cake gorgeous, but it also tasted incredible. We chose lemon and chocolate with raspberry and coconut filling—each flavor was moist, balanced, and delicious. Guests couldn’t stop raving about it, and many asked for her contact information!
Preeti’s attention to detail was exceptional. She arrived on time and set up the cake professionally. We’re so grateful to her for making the process stress-free and creating such a beautiful and delicious cake. Pretty Cakes is hands down the best choice for any wedding!

We loved our cupcake tower, and Preeti was very welcoming of our DIY elements too!
Our son was getting married at the USMC Museum in Triangle, VA this last Friday (May 12th), and Preeti of I Want Pretty Cakes, Inc., was on the vendor list with the museum. I live...
in Wyoming and am not familiar with the area. I went through each website the vendors had and contacted a handful of vendors on the list. She immediately responded, was professional, attentive, and understood exactly what we wanted. My intuition felt she was the right choice and I'm so glad I listen to myself. The cake was GORGEOUS, DELICIOUS, and absolutely exactly what we wanted. The bride and groom were so happy with it as were all the guests! We HIGHLY recommend her business. Especially if you live far away and want confidence in the person you want to help assist your special day.
I cannot say enough great things about Preeti. We had a great rapport from day one, and I felt very heard and understood. She sketched out an idea of what I wanted, and she complet...
ely hit the mark. She hosted a cupcake tasting and we picked the spice cake with apple filling and the white cake with strawberry filling. When we saw the final cake/cupcake tower, we all gasped. It was beautiful. We went with a "winter wonderland" theme, which she nailed. The cupcakes were a big hit and everyone loved the flavors we chose. Preeti is affordable, pleasant to work with, and a wonderful baker. I highly recommend booking with her!
My wife and I loved our experience working with Preeti as our wedding cake vendor. During the planning and contracting phase, when we were unsure of how many guests we would have a...
t our wedding, she gave us the flexibility within the contract to “start smaller” than we expected, with the option to pay more as needed if we predicted that we would need a cake larger than originally projected. This flexibility not only brought us peace of mind (since we could potentially ask for an increased size up to three weeks in advance) it also saved us money, because we ended up only needing the smaller size she recommended! We were impressed how Preeti went out of her way to make sure we had everything we wanted and needed while saving us money. For example, she showed us examples of how she could visually decorate the cakes with buttercream frosting to look like fondant icing, without having to pay the additional expense that usually comes with fondant icing! My wife loves the look of fondant icing on cakes, so we were really pleased that we could capture that look while staying within budget. Preeti also beautifully decorated our cake with “frosting pearls” and fresh roses provided from our florist; it was a beautiful work of art. Beyond her willingness to find ways for us to save money without sacrificing quality and the striking visual aesthetic of her work, the taste was outstanding! During the tasting period, social distancing was still encouraged, so she baked us “mini-cupcakes” of up to six cake and filling combinations to take home as samples. We chose a strawberry cake, pineapple filling combination. Our guests loved it; it was the perfect size, there were very few leftovers for us to take home (though the perfect leftover portion for my wife and I), the colors (white frosting, red strawberry cake, gold pineapple filling) perfectly coordinated with our wedding colors, and most of all, it just tasted superb. Pretti also lent us a golden cake stand ($200 security deposit, fully refundable upon return to Pretti), which matched perfectly with our décor and saved us the money of having to buy an additional piece of décor. Thank you Pretti; our day couldn’t have gone any better, and both your prep work before the wedding and your work the day of shone through brightly!

enjoyed it so much that it was all gone. We will be back for our anniversary to have Preeti recreate our top tier for us. She is patient, artistic, and honest about what will and won't look or taste good. 20 stars to I want pretty cakes if I could.

As you can see, she is always apart of my families special occasions. From the first cake she has made to the latest one, the quality has remained top notch. Preeti is professional, accommodating and has the best personality. I highly recommend her to everyone. You will not be disappointed.
We had a very custom designed cake we wanted for our wedding. Preeti really took the time to really know what we were looking for came through with an amazing cake for our wedding....
She went out of her way to deliver it early when there was a power out on our wedding day and she knew it needed to stay in refrigeration before the reception. Will definitely use her for any future cake needs.
Everyone raved about our cake! We thought we would be bringing home cake since we had a lower guest count then we thought. Nope, everyone had seconds or thirds to try all the fla...

I found Preeti when I conducted a google search for best wedding cakes in my area. After reading the great reviews, I decided to reach out via email for additional information. I w...
as very pleased with the quick and professional response I received. Preeti answered all of my questions regarding her wedding cakes. Due to COVID she was not offering tastings which I completely understood; however, I was able to purchase a cupcake sampler for a reasonable fee. My now husband and I fell in love with the deliciousness of her cakes. She offers a variety of flavors so there’s something for everyone. I love that in addition to her wedding cakes, she also offers beautiful cake stands as a rental option. On the day of our wedding she delivered the cake on time and it was made exactly as we requested. We had several guests ask us where we got the cake from. It was that great! Luckily we had some leftover cake to take home that we were able to enjoy for the next couple of days. To our surprise, the cake still retained its moisture even two days after the wedding! Not only does she make great cakes but she is also very friendly and accommodating. I am happy that we found her company and moving forward we plan to use I Want Pretty Cakes for future occasions. My entire experience with I Want Pretty Cakes was awesome from the start to the end.
Preeti is amazing to work with! She’s professional, timely in her email responses and flexible (especially with covid happening, mail being delayed etc). I gave her a picture of my...
dress, fabric swatch of my bridesmaids dress, and a general description of what we were looking for. She drew up a sketch and we were on our way! It was amazing to feel like I could give this responsibility over to Preeti and just let her do her thing. The end product was phenomenal!! I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Preeti!!
We are so thrilled that we chose Preeti with I Want Pretty Cakes for our wedding cake!! When we went for our consultation, I literally moaned out loud when I tasted the first sampl...
e. Her cakes are THAT good! She was incredibly knowledgeable and worked with us on the design. The day of our wedding, our cake looked exactly how we wanted - it was absolutely beautiful! We had 3 layers and each was a different flavor. I feel like most wedding cakes are kind of tasteless and dry. But every layer of ours was amazing! Moist and flavorful and delicious! Plus, it smelled fantastic! We were able to take a couple pieces home with us, and every night we wish we had some more! I can't speak highly enough about Preeti and her cakes. Her prices are great, she's a very kind and talented baker, and our wedding cake tasted sooooo good!
The cake was absolutely delicious and Preeti was able to make it precisely to our specifications! We had a COVID friendly wedding with only 14 guests, but having a real wedding cak...

I Want Pretty Cakes is amazing! Our cake was beautiful and delicious. Preeti was professional and receptive, all of our expectations were met. All our guests were raving over it. ...
Thank you so much for making such an amazing cake for us.
WOW. I'll start from the beginning of my experience with Preeti and I Want Pretty Cakes, Inc.! She was recommended by our venue and in all honesty, we visited a store-front bakery ...
before coming to her. Huge mistake. Their presentation was lackluster at best. When we showed up for a tasting with Preeti we were IMMEDIATELY blown away by the fact that she had carefully baked and created individual mini cupcakes for us to properly sample her various cakes, frostings, and fillings. We felt like we were sitting down with a friend to decide our cake. We talked her through what we liked and she walked us through a vision. She DREW. OUT. THE. DESIGN. The way she drew the design of our cake allowed us to ENVISION the cake at our wedding. It's beautiful! We were sold and booked her the next day.
Unfortunately, COVID-19 interrupted our scheduled wedding plans on March 21, 2020. Preeti was EXTREMELY easy to work with to reschedule our date, which will now be rescheduled again in the middle of a pandemic. Her communication is impeccable and I never had worries that she would deliver for us on our wedding day. I am SO EXCITED for the cake she will make for us in May 2021.
But that's not all! We value small businesses and their work, so when we actually got to officially tie the knot in a private ceremony on May 8, we asked Preeti if we could purchase a small cake from her for that day. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. It's hard to decide what she does better--bake a delicious cake, or decorate a stunning cake?!?!?! Good thing you don't have to sacrifice either with her services. Stop reading my review and go sign Preeti and I Want Pretty Cakes for your wedding immediately!!!
You will not regret using Preeti! She was great to work with, makes incredible cakes, and rose above our expectations; even checking in on my mom who was going through some health ...
complications at the time (which meant the world to her!).
Her cakes are delicious, moist, and better than many of these "gourmet" bakeries out there. We offered take home slices as our wedding favors and were amazed that there was no cake left by the end of the night (my husband was very disappointed he didn't get any leftovers lol) We will definitely be using Preeti's service again in the future!
Preeti was a dream to work with from tasting to the big day. On the big day, she was on time, the cake was exactly the design we wanted and was delicious too!
