Intricate Icings Cake Design

on how amazing it tasted! I would highly recommend her for any of your cake needs.

ur guests are still RAVING about our beautiful delicious cake! I can't thank Rachael enough or put into words how much I appreciate her hard work and talent! She along with our other vendors was a very special part of our day!

, approachability and commitment to creating a best-in-class experience for her clients are just the beginning. Cake tastings, bubbly, secret recipes, oh my! Her artistic talent and creative spirit result in innovative cake designs that are tailor-made for each client's event. The cake she created for our casual Colorado mountain wedding was more beautiful—and delicious!—than we could have imagined. She interpreted our theme perfectly in both color and flavor, asked for and incorporated editorial feedback, and delivered the cake on time, in pristine condition, halfway across the state. As a professional wedding vendor and a supremely talented cake decorator, I can't recommend Rachael highly enough!!

ork with Rachael and she was so flexible and accommodating with our special requests for the design (to incorporate my dress) and for a special flavor that meant a lot to my husband and his family (sticky toffee pudding), which she researched and tested for us beforehand. Rachael exceeded all our expectations for both the cake design and the flavor, and all with amazing service and friendliness every step of the way. If you're looking for the best wedding cake baker in Colorado, Intricate Icings is it!!

ael gave us the tasting cake, we were all taking small, dainty bites and tasting the flavors while Rachael was getting some planning forms together. By the time she returned (2 minutes MAX) our best man had DEVOURED all of the cake, and was jealously eying the rest of our plates. That was the best recommendation we could have gotten! Truly, the cake was phenomenal, moist and delicious. In addition, Rachael and her team are true artists when it comes to design and decoration. She built us a 2 ft tall buffalo (Ralphie - GO BUFFS!) as well as a traditional tiered cake with the most incredible ponderosa bark (made of chocolate!) on the base tier. Her sugar succulents were indistinguishable from the real ones in my bouquet - even my guests thought they were real! The combination of the two cakes was perfect - one classic, traditional and elegant and the other fun and charming. We were delighted with how both cakes came out, and our guests raved about how good it was. Intricate Icings is not the "budget" option by any means, but it was absolutely worth every penny we spent.

our rehearsal, then she made the most gorgeous wedding cake complete with silhouettes of our dogs, and for our after party/reception, she put together an amazing candy bar and grooms cake consisting of a hockey rink with our dogs wearing jerseys and holding hockey sticks! Every one of our guests loved it and took pictures of all the cakes and cookies, plus, everything was delicious. I heard several people say it was the best cake they have ever had. I highly recommend Intricate Icings for anything you need!

so fun and inspiring! Rachael spent a long time getting to know my husband and I and what our overall vision was for the wedding. She doesn't do just plain jane cakes and she loves to make the cake go with your theme and overall feel for your wedding or event which was great! We didn't want a large cake and originally just wanted a smaller cake with a dessert bar and after trying Rachael's cake we knew we had to have all cake for the dessert! The zucchini lime is to die for and the lemon with the fresh raspberry topping was one of our favorites!! I'm drooling just remembering how tasty it was at the consult meeting at and our wedding. Rachael came up with four different smaller versions of cake for us to have instead of a larger cake which worked perfectly with our theme and feel for our wedding. It also went along with my original idea of having a dessert bar and now we had a cake bar...YUM!!! When it comes to weddings everyone always says that the cake never gets eaten...well I can tell you the reason for that is because they never had Intricate Icings Cake Design do their cake! We literally ate it all!! Throughout the entire process of working with Rachael and her team we realized it wasn't just about the cake, it was about the experience of working with them. They blew us away throughout the planning and I'm so thankful we had them as part if our wedding day! Thank you so much Rachael and your amazing team for such a tasty and gorgeous cake display!

l of the different elements of our Korean-American wedding into one seamless, stunning work of art. I am an artist myself and tend to set the bar impossibly high in my own work, so I was worried about becoming overly critical of my poor cake baker. But Rachael took all of my perfectionist tendencies in stride, and when the day came, I was absolutely thrilled (read: bowled over) by what she and her team had worked so hard to create for us. Her attention to detail and sheer artistry are truly second to none- she is a rare gem and would make even the most hyped and overexposed cake artists sweat (do you hear me, Duff and Cake Boss?!). As such, I feel incredibly lucky to have found her and expect that future brides will need to book her now, not later. Now. Do NOT miss out, my friend!

and the attention to detail on the actual cake was stunning. If you are getting married, or have any other event, I would definitely choose Intricate Icings!

e with coconut filling and vanilla with lemon. Both were a huge hit. Sadly, their wasn't any cake left over for us to take home. Rachel, arrived well ahead of the guests to set up to cake. We couldn't have been more pleased with the way Rachel treated us as customers. She took our ideas and made them into a unique cake that we will always remember!

cerning a bridal shower cake for my client. Juicy Couture powder box complete with the puff made out of cotton candy!! Stripes were spot-on, not a crooked stripe at all! I have been a fan of Intricate Icings for years. Rachael is phenomenal in communication skills. In this event I was coordinating, it just happened to be my daughter's bridal shower! Enjoyed my experience with this company completely, Joyce Goeppinger La Vie le Gage Couture Events Wedding Planning

ed and more than delivered everything we asked for. It was simply the best overall experience one could hope for. The BEST of the best experiences with Intricate Icings: *BEST Design - Rachel was in tune with our wedding style from the start and developed a number of excellent design suggestions for us to choose from based on our invitations, flowers, and even my dress. She was always open to changes, even in the last few weeks, and incorporated everything we asked for in her expert design -- both wedding and groom's cakes! It was the perfect fit with our wedding theme. *BEST Cake Flavor - Wow! I never imagined there could be such a tasty variety of flavors, frostings and fillings in a wedding cake. Best part, we got to try as many as we wanted at our consultation before deciding on a number of them for our cakes. Normally the cake is just seen as a formality at weddings, but this showcase was the centerpiece of our desert menu. Guests went back for seconds and thirds! The little that was left was enjoyed by family and friends the next day. Every flavor combination she used was absolutely scrumptious. *BEST Professional Experience - Anyone planning a wedding has to work with multiple vendors and you quickly figure out which ones know their business and will be easy to work with. "That is a woman who has found her professional calling and knows how to do it right!" my fiance quipped after our first meeting/tasting with Rachel. This personable and professional woman not only wowed us with her extensive industry knowledge in the cake tasting and design process (thorough understanding of what works and doesn't, regular updates, timely reminders, prompt turn-around times, excellent presentation, etc.) she was indispensable in helping with the wedding planning process as a whole. Rachel's team provided comprehensive lists and suggestions for additional vendors (music, caterers, photographers, venues, etc.), complete with contact info and her experiences working with each of them (good and bad). If she hadn't worked with a vendor I ran past her she would check in with her network and provide feedback or suggest places I could get ratings and reviews for them. It was very clear that Rachel and her entire team at Intricate Icings were quite plugged in to the wedding industry and knew exactly how to help when I needed it. Obviously, I cannot say enough about my experience working with Rachel and Intricate Icings Cake Design and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top quality cake with a top quality --the BEST-- experience!

. She asked sound questions and wanted to make sure she had it right.

during her busy season to do a cake tasting less than a month before our wedding. The wedding cake exceeded our expectations and our guests continue to discuss the incredible flavors- the Zucchini Lime was my favorite! I was most impressed with the grooms cake I got to surprise my husband. It included rock climbing shoes, a firefighter helmet, and our two dogs. Her company name does not lie. That was the most INTRICATE work I have ever seen. For instance, one of our dogs as a tiny fold on one ear- Rachael even nailed this tiny detail! She truly warmed our hearts in making us feel our puppies, aka our furry children, were a part of the wedding even though they were miles away. I will turn to Intricate Icings for all future cakes and have already highly recommended her to all my engaged friends.

w incredibly delicious her cakes taste!! Rachael created a cake with a molding from the lace off my dress and it turned out perfect! I have never seen a more beautiful wedding cake in my entirely life! I absolutely LOVED it and Rachael is wonderful to work with! I highly recommend Intricate Icings to any bride!

ge venues 24 hours prior to the wedding due to Estes Park flooding. Can't say enough great things about our experience with Intricate Icings! Highly recommend!

decided to customize our cake flavors and she was very open to changing her usual flavors. It was fun and exciting to work with her!!

regret this decision to work with Rachael!! A week later we are still eating it!

e loved the way the cake looked and tasted. Thank you so much!

& presentation of a wedding cake is important even more so is the taste which everyone was ranting and raving about days after the wedding! After many back & forths after our tasting (because all the flavors were amazing!), we chose a basic chocolate cake & a lemon cake. The cake was moist and everyone agreed was melt in your mouth good! I would highly recommend Intricate Icings Cake Design to anyone wanting a beautiful and delicious tasting cake for their wedding.

offer a variety of flavors and cake sizes to meet the needs of their customers.

it was worth. Wonderful to work with and a great deal!! I would highly recommend.

a bean with blackberry filling and both were absolutely delicous!!

Erie, but it was still worth it!

eat much as the bride and groom!

our wedding. We could not have been happier with how everything turned out. Not only did the cake look amazing but it tasted great too.

oppers vs none and when our guest count was way different than we had planned for it wasn't an issue for them at all. I almost didn't want to cut into it. Then we did and it was DELICIOUS!!! I have high cake standards, and Intricate Icings surpassed them.

cake is one of the most talked about things by our wedding guests and we could not have picked a better cake company to work with!!!

s!

great job of translating that into a design that we loved. She also made sure all three elements were coordinated and that they looked good together. Not only did everything look great, but it tasted great too - even her fondant was amazing - which is rare!

ful and very classic looking and the helmet was outstanding and so true-to-life. The details were so spot-on, it looked just like a real helmet! The cakes were both delicious!! We had several different flavors and fillings combination, but our favorite was the zucchini-lime. It was amazing and a big hit at the wedding! We even had leftover cake that we had at a breakfast the next day, which was still delicious and very moist, even though it was the next day. Rachael and her team were great to work with, from the tasting, to communicating during the planning process. She always returned emails very quickly and answered all our questions. I would highly recommend Intricate Icings!!

e and collaborated with us on our design. We wanted simple elegance with our cake and that is exactly what we received. Aside from the gorgeous exterior, the cake itself was very delicious and moist! We really appreciated them packing up a slice of each delicious flavor along with some extra goodies and putting them in our honeymoon suite because sure enough we didn't get to eat a piece that night. It was a nice treat to come back to! Thank you so much for everything!

ined with her artistic vision and her amazing skills with cakes made for a very memorable cake. All of the flavors and fillings that she offered us were amazing and the white chocolate fondant is brilliant.

still very playful and geeky. I had put together an inspiration board that I sent over to Rachel a couple of days before our consultation and she picked up on a small detail that we had added to our wedding, this detail became the main focus of our cake and it couldn't have turned out more beautiful! Rachel made sure that our geeky side was well represented in our cake, but also managed to keep it very elegant. And it tasted absolutely amazing! Next to my dress our cake was my favorite thing about our wedding! I couldn't recommend Intricate Icings more to anyone that is in need of a cake that both looks like a real piece of art but also tastes amazing!

tyle cake which so many bakerys do. They are definitely worth the money and you will NOT be disappointed! Oh, and the cake pops are to die for!

From our consultations, design collaboration, to the final product, we were beyond happy knowing that our cake was in the hands of true professionals. Thank you!

delicious! Thank you Rachel for creating such a beautiful and tasty cake for us!

food network, so we really felt like we might be too picky for our own good when it came to choose a wedding cake designer. Now we feel so fortunate to have found Rachael at Intricate Icings. Not only was she the friendliest vendor that we met throughout the wedding planning process, but we were blown away by the cake she showed up with on the day of our event. I did notice that she chose to use butter cream to make the pattern on our cake rather than the fondant we had asked for, but it turned out so stunning that I can't complain at all. I'm sure she had a reason for making the switch; Rachael knows exactly what she's doing when it comes to wedding cakes. We just couldn't have been more happy with our experience; both the customer service and the final product were incredible. I won't be getting photos of the event back until the end of November, but when I do I will be sure to add a photo of our STUNNING cake to this review. I will be recommending Intricate Icings to everybody I know, and I would jump at the chance to work with them again for future special occasions!

to find out the sex of our baby from our cake and the idea was for the results to go to Rachel and for her to make the 2nd layer of the cake either pink or blue depending on the gender. It worked out PERFECTLY!!! The cake was absolutely gorgeous. Exceeded greatly what we had envisioned. It was so elegant and beautiful and because she worked closely with our florist it tied perfectly with the rest of our wedding. Seriously took our breaths away. And the moment when we cut it was one of the best times of our lives. All of our family and friends got to find out with us that we are having a BABY GIRL!! It was perfectly PINK and so delicious! Our guests were astounded by the idea and the taste and still talk about it and will for years to come. Rachel made that moment possible and we will be forever grateful to her and her staff for doing such a tremendous job (and not spilling the beans!). The service she provided and the flexibility make her stand out from the crowd and when we eventually move to CO from NYC, we'll definitely use her services for other occasions!

dding cake and all my sister in law kept saying was bigger, bigger. They designed us a 6 tier wedding cake, black and white and totally tied into the theme of our wedding. They called us a month before the wedding to finalize all details. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how good the cake was and how beautiful. The cake was moist and delicious. I am now planning on getting another one for the holidays not a 6 tier but a small cake :) Great experience working with Intricate Icings!! I hope one day they can do our baby shower cake too!!

was not a single piece of cake left! It was beautiful, and tasted as good as it looked!
