INK Sweets

Ink Sweets was amazing to work with! Leah was very responsive to any questions or changes we reached out with and our wedding cake turned out beautiful. I would highly recommend working with Ink Sweets for your special day.

I'll start by saying when we first started wedding planning, we didn't want to get a super nice cake. This was something that we didnt care at all about. Once I found Ink Sweets, that completely changed. These cakes are ART. We gave Leah free control with designing our cake, and we were thrilled with the outcome. Not to mention, it tasted AMAZING. We loved our cake and our guests did too. SO happy that we found Leah and Ink Sweets!

Leah was amazing! We had a weird unique request for a cake but was concerned about our budget. She was helpful, flexible and was able to create a cake beyond our expectations! Her cupcakes were a huge hit as well! Our guests couldn’t stop raving about them! I wish I could give her and her team more stars. Amazing service and deserts! They also have macaroons which were my favorite ❤️ Highly recommend Ink Sweets for your special day!

I cannot even begin to articulate how beautiful our cake was. And delicious. Leah is incredible to work with, she is a true cake artist with the vision to create the cake of your dreams and the talent to make those dreams reality. Some people grow up dreaming of their wedding dresses, but I have been dreaming of my wedding cake since I was a little girl. Leah’s work surpassed my wildest dreams. The sugar flowers are just INCREDIBLE and hyperreal. Did I mention it tasted amazing too?

I can't believe how absolutely gorgeous our wedding cake was! Leah and Ink Sweets did the most incredible job, we decided to make the cake the showstopper decoration in the middle of the reception hall! It tasted amazing too; not overly sweet, moist, rich flavor that I've rarely seen in a wedding cake. They also made us a dessert bar with a wide range of sweets that our guests loved (they literally ate it all)! I can't recommend Ink Sweets highly enough...best wedding vendor decision we've made!

We've had Leah making 4 of our cakes, 3 birthday cakes and this time our wedding cake. She has been amazing every time and amazes us constantly with her creativity. She is always a pleasure to work with. I was completely speachless when I saw my beautiful moss green cake along with 2 types of beautifully made cookies. The cake was such a showstopper. Thank you Leah for helping make our dream come true.

From our first meeting with Leah, we knew she was the only person to make our wedding cake. She arrived wearing a Mouse Rat t-shirt from Parks & Rec, one of our favorite shows. It represented her unique personality perfectly. We tasted several flavors of cake and each one was more delicious than the last. She helped us narrow our selection to Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Buttercream and Lemon Buttermilk with Raspberry Buttercream. She is truly creative, taking our colors and a few general ideas and creating a work of art. Leah was incredibly easy to work with and responsive to our questions. She stuck with us through two changes of date due to the pandemic. We were so excited to finally see the cake that we had a special reveal before our reception. We were blown away by the cake she created for us! Many of our guests are still talking about the unique and delicious cake. We highly recommend Leah and Ink Sweets for your wedding cake!

BEST cake I have ever had. Cake snobs and anti-cakers alike will adore these cakes. For our wedding cake, we gave Leah a description like "dark, moody, celestial, sparkly" and she delivered! If you feel "untraditional" in anyway, Leah is your girl. Working with her was such fun and so easy, despite the complications we faced planning/rescheduling a wedding during a pandemic. Her unique and delicious flavor options cannot be beat (earl grey, anyone?!) It's a dream to get both design/style and incredible flavor and texture with a wedding cake. Delicious, unique & gorgeous cakes; reliable, fun, professional vendor; LGBTQ wedding supporter, CHECK CHECK CHECK!

Leah is nothing short of amazing! From the small details to the over all grand design of the cake, she won’t disappoint. She made suggestions that were outside of my comfort zone, and I trusted her. Without fail, my cake was not only *delicious* but beautiful also. Months later people are STILL talking about how pretty it turned out and I love that we went a less “traditional” route! I highly recommend INK for any of your tasty treat needs.

Leah made the most beautiful and delicious cake for our wedding!! From our initial conversation, she knew exactly what we were going for, and our final cake exactly matched the original vision we had. We got rave reviews both for how stunning it was and for how delicious. Multiple people told us it was the best wedding cake they'd ever had! (We got the bourbon chai and lemon pistachio.) She also made the tasting process super easy, which was impressive as it was at the height of the pandemic. I would recommend one of Leah’s cakes for any occasion!

Wow, I am so glad we had INK Sweets create our wedding cake for our wedding! The custom design went above and beyond our expectations. Not only that but the cake itself was delicious, moist and flavorful! Our wedding cake was a beautiful addition to our dance floor backdrop. We cannot wait to pull the top portion out of the freezer and be reminded of our big day and our beautiful cake all over again. Thank you INK Sweets for being a part of our big day!

My mom brought Leah to my attention when she saw a cake with fresh figs on it. Any cake artist that puts fresh figs on a cake is one I wanted. I immediately contacted Leah, and ever since our first correspondence she has been an absolute dream. She met with my fiance and me to test flavors (the earl gray cake is not to be missed), and by that evening she had a sketch over to us. Being a person who loves cake but knows nothing about their design, I deferred to her completely and am so happy I did. Even when I downsized my wedding, Leah delivered the most whimsical, elegant, floral, delicious, and fairytale perfect four-tiered cake I could have ever have imagined. Her attention to detail is unparalleled (she even had flowers both in bloom and budding on the cake), and I cannot recommend her any more highly. The only thing better than her cakes is Leah herself!

You will NOT be disappointed in anything from Leah at Ink Sweets! Not only do her cakes look out of this world amazing, they have flavors I never would've thought could be in cake! AND TASTE BETTER THAN THEY LOOK! She truly is a gifted artist! Her sugar flowers are absolutely stunning, and her eye for colors are spot on as well! Our wedding guests couldn't believe the cake was real, and that the flowers were made of sugar! Look no further, Leah is your gal for everything amazing with cake!

Leah is amazing and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and everyone! She was so willing to work with me through a couple requests I had and when it came time to deliver - she delivered! The cake was absolutely gorgeous, so much so that I actually felt bad cutting into the cake - but more importantly it tasted DELICIOUS! She is such a talented lady, is great at communication and was so helpful in making our #pandemicwedding cake the best. Thank you Leah!

Leah is THE. FREAKIN. BEST. Her cakes are the MOST beautiful (seriously, I could look at them all day), the MOST delicious (and I’ve eaten a lot of cake), and she has the BEST customer service. I’ve had the opportunity to eat her cake many times, and each time I can see everyone else’s eyes light up when they have their first bite—their eyes say “OHHHH MY GODDDD”. Once i tried to keep leftovers for my family but they were just too good and I ate them all. Her creativity is mind blowing and her technique is unparalleled. I would book her for anything, any day. My favorite cake is the pistachio lemon!!!!!

As soon as I saw Leah's artistry, I knew I had to have her make our wedding cake! My husband and I wanted to do a "first look" with our cake, meaning we didn't know what our cake was going to look like until our wedding day, a complete surprise. Leah absolutely KILLED it! Not only was it absolutely gorgeous, but it was the best tasting cake we have ever had. Our friends and family still talk about it and request it for all of our events, big and small! If you are looking for a complete badass human being and an amazing cake artist, you have to use INK Sweets!

What is love? Leah and her skills for making the most amazing cake you will ever have. Whether its from the flavor or the details of the design you've dreamt of, she will magic it into existence. She was fun and professional.

My husband and I tasted some of Leah’s confections at a Minneapolis wedding show event and we were instantly hooked on her unique flavors and amazing skill. We knew she was the one we wanted to work with instantly. Leah was not only communicative and flexible in the months leading up to our wedding- we gave her pretty much open creative license with design and flavors for our dessert “palate” as we opted for a small cutting cake, cookies, bars and tartlets. After chatting with Leah during our cake tasting we were even more convinced we selected the right dessert artist for us as she was up front and honest with her use of ingredients- she uses real foods- no artificial flavors! Even when we asked to split up our dessert delivery so that we had sweet treats for our rehearsal dinner Leah was flexible and provided options to make pick up convenient for us. Leah delivered our cake and the rest of our desserts the day of our wedding – and she even took the time to try and match the font of our invitations to the dessert labels. Working with Ink Sweets was the most fantastic experience, and Leah is the real deal!

Leah of INK Sweets created the dessert spread for my wedding in August 2019 and it was absolutely stunning! Honestly, I had guests come up to me throughout the night to compliment the treats. By the end of the night there was not a single bite left. Luckily Leah has been doing this for a while and she specially set aside a dessert box for myself and my husband to enjoy when things settled down. Leah was so easy to work with. She was organized, honest and helpful, especially when it came to flavor pairings and how much to order. I was not the most particular bride. I knew I wanted a colorful cake but as to the details I was open to suggestions. Leah asked for photos of what I had been working on for the wedding, colors I liked and other bits of general inspiration. From that information she found a mold that would match the cookie decorations to the napkin ring details I had made. It was perfect and so thoughtful!! For our wedding cake we chose her strawberry rhubarb flavor. I have already placed an order for the same flavored first anniversary cake! I would definitely work with Leah again and recommend her services to anyone. She made our desserts (which is really the most important food course, right?) memorable and unique to us.

Leah absolutely knocked it out of the park making the cake for our wedding. Not only did she meet with me more than once to be sure I was prepared and she knew when and where to drop it off. She also was flexible when I couldn't find the flowers that were meant to decorate the cake on the day of the wedding. Plus, the cake itself was absolutely gorgeous (excuse my terrible photography skills) and I was told over and over that it was one of the best cakes they'd ever had. Could not recommend INK Sweets more! :)

Had a phenomenal experience working with Leah. She made our wedding cake and cupcakes for this past weekend. I really wasn’t sure how I wanted the cake to look like. I’m a pretty indecisive bride. She took the time to really understand our relationship and created a BEAUTIFUL cake that captured our “love story.” Leah’s focus on every detail made all of our guests and us say, “Wow!” the moment we saw our cake. Leah’s cakes are like nothing you’ve ever seen before... or tasted! We had 150 cupcakes at the wedding and not one was left over! Another sweet touch from Leah was that she took one of each flavor cupcake and set it aside for my husband and I before the reception started so we didn’t miss out! How sweet! She was so easy to work with and so fun. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you Leah!!!

Leah was amazing and super easy to work with. She listened to what we were looking for, asked tons of questions about our wedding and even reached out to our florist to make sure her design and cake matched every detail of our wedding. She responded promptly every time I contacted her, even while she was getting married this past summer. Leah made a beautiful cake and we also featured her other desserts at our wedding. The design, attention to detail and taste of the cake and other desserts were out of this world. My wedding guests loved the desserts and have given me a ton of compliments on all of them. It's been fun asking what their favorite dessert was and many had multiple favorites. I have already highly recommended Leah to my family and friends and will do so in the future. Her desserts are so good, my husband and I made a pact to order from Leah annually for Valentine's Day and our Anniversary. ;)

Leah does such unique and incredible work. Her designs are one of a kind!!! I would recommend INK Sweets in a heartbeat.

Leah and her cakes ROCK! She was our favorite wedding vendor with which we worked! We highly recommend INK Sweets for a positive and tasty experience....

I was dead set on having a black wedding cake, so as soon as I found Ink Sweets I knew Leah could make it happen. I can't eat gluten and Leah was able to make our entire cake gluten free so that I could eat the same thing as everyone else (which normally never happens for me). We chose a chocolate cake with ganache for the frosting and cream cheese filling. It was so rich and chocolatey, but most importantly it wasn't obvious that it was gluten free, so everyone could enjoy it! The Knot says that Ink Sweets is "expensive" but I found her price to be quite reasonable, so don't let that label scare you away. For reference my cake is pictured in the gallery above: It's the black, 4 tier cake with fresh flowers and flecks of gold (to look like stars). Leah did a fantastic job, and even added a cool texture to the ganache for a unique spin!

Leah was an absolute delight to work with designing my 30th birthday cake! Do not hesitate to work with her on your wedding cake! My sister-in-law and I did a cake tasting and met with Leah to discuss design elements, and it was so much fun to work with her and talk about cake! Leah was so accommodating with flavor choices and in taking my all-over-the-place ideas about design and making a gorgeous cake inside and out. I'll be dreaming about her dark chocolate pecan-praline cake until I have a reason to get another one!

Leah dad a fabulous job on our cake. It was beautiful and delicious. The flowers she sculpted looked identical to my bouquet. Some of the guests didn't believe they weren't real. Leah was a joy to work with. I highly recommend her!

Leah did an amazing job. Everyone raved about her cupcakes. "Best I've ever had" was the comment we heard most often. Her cakes are artwork and we would recommend her for any occasion calling for a beautiful, meaningful dessert.

Leah was so incredible to work with! She made a cutting cake and 5 different cupcakes for our wedding and they were all AMAZING! The cake itself was stunning. I gave her my idea and she took creative control of it, and it turned out even more beautiful than I had imagined! I have to say—Leah makes the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen. I feel so lucky that I got to have them on my cake! All the flavors of cupcakes were delicious as well; my bridesmaids raved about them. I especially appreciate how accommodating Leah was to us—not only did she make a gluten-free cupcake, but she also made it completely plant-based since I went vegan 4 months before the wedding. I was so thankful she did that so that I was able to eat one of her delicious cupcakes on my special day! We worked with several vendors for our wedding and honestly, INK was the easiest and most pleasant to work with. Leah is so kind, understanding, creative and talented. I have absolutely no complaints. I will be recommending her to anyone I know who needs any sort of sweets!

We were introduced to Leah's amazing bakes at the NE Farmers market. After falling in love with her berry tarts and brownies, we knew we wanted to have her create our wedding cake. The cake tasting was amazing and Leah did an amazing job explaining the options we had and guiding us when we needed the guidance. After walking through our reception and once Leah got to know us, we felt comfortable just letting Leah use her skills for the design of the cake. She is truly an artist. Actually seeing the finished product on the day of our reception was unbelievable. The cake was gorgeous and tasted amazing! We went with almond cake with almond filling, highly recommended!! Seriously cannot talk about how beautiful the cake was. Leah was a joy to work with. I would recommend INK to any newlywed couple without a doubt!

Leah is absolutely amazing and made the perfect cake for my wedding day. Our wedding was simple and I wanted a cake to reflect our style and she made it exactly like I had in mind. She is so detail oriented with her cakes and goes above and beyond to make sure you get exactly what you were looking for even if it’s just simplicity. I highly recommend INK sweets for anyone’s big day, Leah will make exactly what you dream of!

Words can't describe how glad we are that we chose Ink Sweets for our big day! Leah constantly went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. She combined her amazing attention to detail, her outstanding passion, and her incredible talent to make us the cake of our dreams. When I expressed interest in learning how to make gum paste flowers, she offered to come to my apartment and teach me how to make them! That is customer service you won't find anywhere else. I will be recommending Leah to anyone I come across who is in need of an awesome cake! She is the prime example of someone who has an absolute passion for their job, and you will not regret choosing her.

We loved everything about the cake, cupcakes, cookies, and bars Leah made for our wedding. They were thoughtfully decorated and so delicious! Our guests were talking about them all night - and continue to rave about them even after the wedding :) Leah is the real deal - I can't recommend her enough!!

Leah was so easy to work with. She listened to what we wanted for our special day and did not disappoint. She had so many pairings for us to chose from. She is a true artist and it shows through her work. Our cake was stunning. I would highly recommend Ink Sweets and definitely will be using them again in the future!

Amazing wedding cake! Leah took our ideas, through pictures and emails back and forth, made our cake a reality. So creative and skilled! The cake tasted delicious also, so many compliments from our 260 guests. No one even knew the flowers were edible because they looked so real. We will recommend Ink Sweets to anyone that needs a special cake from one of the best Bakers/Artists in the USA! Mike and Ivy Long

Leah created the wedding cake of my dreams. She is easily the most talented person I have ever met and it shows in all of her work. For our tasting, she brought numerous icing and cake flavors and they were all amazing. We ended up picking two different combinations (it was impossible to pick just one) and our guests raved about how delicious both were. She was also extremely helpful when it came to deciding on sizes/servings, details of the cake, and even traveled to Chicago to help set it up at our venue. I knew the final product would be great but she completely exceeded all of my expectations. Her sugar flowers are the most beautiful things I have ever seen! I still can't get over how detailed they were - her passion and talent is out of this world. INK Sweets delivered an absolutely perfect cake and I am so glad we were able to work with Leah.

W O W. Where do I begin with Leah? If the wedding cake business were the Olympics, she would win the Gold Medal in every event. Her professionalism, her interaction with clients, her flexibility and understanding, and HER TALENT. Not only are her cakes and creations DELICIOUS (I mean she went to pastry school, which speaks for itself), her work is INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL. She was an artist on paper/sculptures/etc. before she took to displaying her art on cakes, and there's just not enough good words in the world to describe what she can do! I told her a million different things I liked and what I was envisioning for not only my cake, but my day as a whole, and it's like she saw into my brain, and then made it 1000x times better. People were raving about how beautiful my cake was - and then about how delicious it was! I can't recommend INK Sweets enough - you will not be disappointed!!! (Disclaimer: she's my best friend, which doesn't mean i'm fake about her work, but a thousand times more critical!! I've seen her grow through this process, so when I say she's worth every penny, I truly mean it!)

Leah is not only extremely talented but a delight to work with as well. She brought delicious samples to our house and spent ample time getting to know us and our goals for our wedding desserts. Our wedding cake came to life through Leah who understood my vision perfectly. The sketch she provided was perfect and I knew she got me. For wedding desserts, we had lots of mini cupcakes, mini key lime tartlets, regular and gluten free brownies. Our gluten sensitive guests went out of their way to comment on how delicious the brownies were and how much they appreciated the thoughtfulness. Another thing that impressed me is Leah's willingness to offer her expert advice regarding quantities needed to order without pushing me out of my comfort zone. I reduced the quantities mid-way only to go back to her original recommendation and I'm glad I did. Our guests were satisfied and no one missed out on dessert. I will without a doubt use Ink Sweets for upcoming events that could be made better with beautiful and delicious treats.

Leah made the process such a pleasure! She was always quick to reply, accommodating and efficient. We order a custom cake and mini desserts for a bridal shower and they all disappeared quickly! She’s professional, skilled and kind. I have already recommended her to others and will continue to do so.

Leah does an incredible job at creating artistic cakes and other sweets at are not only stunning to look at, they taste delicious as well! Our cake tasting session with her was so fun and filling. We got to try many different flavor combinations, all of which were homemade with natural ingredients and left us so excited to work with her that we did not go to any other tastings! She was so accommodating and was willing to customize from her standard options to create flavors that we envisioned. Leah was always quick to respond to any emails or requests. You can tell that she truly has a passion for what she does and is very talented. I would highly recommend INK Sweets to anyone, for wedding or ANY occasion cakes or desserts. Thanks again Leah, we look forward to working with you in the future!

Leah is amazing! She is so artistic and took all the jumbled thoughts I had in my head and turned them into something even better than I could have imagined. Really enjoyed working with her to create something unique that was also SO GOOD. Like, amazingly delicious. So happy with our choice to go with her!

Planning a wedding can be really stressful but INK made the cake portion of planning incredibly easy. As an artist it can be tough for me to let someone else take charge of my vision but I was quickly at ease after sitting down with Leah. She listened to what I wanted and used her expertise to bring my vision to life. The cakes weren't just beautiful but also so yummy that my husband and I didn't have any leftovers to take home! I will definitely be returning to INK for any future treats I might need.

Leah is the perfect representation of someone who does what she does because she LOVES it and it ABSOLUTELY SHOWS!! We did a tasting with her and I was completely blown away by not only the flavor of the cake and frosting she put in front of us, but also how much thought goes into everything she does. There's a reason and a passion behind everything she does, but she always made us feel like our ideas were being heard and applied to what her vision was for our wedding, and I CANNOT WAIT to eat that cake again, and for our guests to see her GORGEOUS work!!! 11/10, will go to INK for everything from here on out!!

Leah is a master designer and artist when it comes to cakes. When it came time to decide on a wedding cake, there was no question, I wanted Leah to make it and no one else. She sat down with us and was extremely professional; she listened to what we wanted and took all aspects into consideration. She wanted to know what we were looking for when it came to size, flavor, colors, details, we showed her pictures of things we liked and didn’t, and she produced a sketch of exactly what we were looking for. When it came time to make the sketch a reality, I was blown away. I had never seen something so beautiful, the time and care she put into the cake was evident. Ever since our wedding I have followed her work, and I can tell you that she just keeps getting better, this is her calling. Her artistic view and attention to detail is what sets her apart from the rest. Not to mention the cakes are not only beautiful, they are DELICIOUS! If I ever get the chance, I hope I get to work with her again someday!

INK made my wedding cake, and words simply cannot express how perfect it was. Leah began by talking with me about our styles, favorite flavors, and the general tenor of the wedding. She then let me inundate her with pictures of cakes I thought were neat, but none of them were exactly what I wanted. She then managed to turn our talk, my pictures, and her unique creativity and talent into truly the perfect cake!!! Both in flavor and in looks, the cake was the icing on our perfect day. :) She made the cake experience so easy and fun that I wish the rest of my wedding vendors could have taken a play out of her playbook. Leah has an innate sense of how to make the perfect cake for any occasion, and I still am in awe every time I see one of her creations. Her talents and attention to detail are beyond measure, and you MUST hire her to make sweet, sweet sweets for you!

Leah is beyond talented, however her passion for decorating and her artistic capabilities are what takes her business above and beyond any and all competition. Not only do her cakes taste amazing, she listens carefully to what your vision is, and executes it perfectly! She can make your visions come true and is such a pleasure to work with!!
