My experience with Jan Kish, from designing my daughter’s wedding and groom’s cakes to eating them, was so delightful and delicious that I wish we could replay the whole event! Jan’s creativity in designing the cakes - so personalized and mean...
ingful to the wedding couple - was the equal of her culinary expertise in baking them. They looked as beautiful as they tasted sublime! We were able to display the cakes so that each could be admired in 360 degrees by the guests, a huge hit with everyone there. The wedding cake told the story of the bride and groom’s love of skiing, rafting, and hiking in their Colorado mountain surroundings with such cleverness and humor that it had to be studied to be believed. No other cake could have reflected these two with such impressive and memorable detail.
What a perfect way to enhance and celebrate their wedding day!

Dear Janie,
How very kind and thoughtful of you to take the time and tell everyone about your experience with us. Working with you and knowing some of the background of your family made it that much more fun! Too bad we can't tell them abou...
t the groom's cake, now there's a story! But working with you in the entertaining business has always been an honor...now I guess we'll have to start working towards the grandchildren! My appreciation is endless and I will always be your "beck and call" cake kid! Forever in the kitchen for you, jk.
Jan Kish made the most beautiful and phenomenal tasting cake for our wedding. I wanted cascading violets and her presentation of my vision was perfect.
Although it was 35 years ago it feels like it was yesterday! I never forget that day the charm the beauty the elegance was memorable and all of
my dreams came true and to this day only remember the joy and happiness that was made possible by th...
e expertise, professionalism and Calming approach(which by the way every nervous bride requires)by Jan Kish/ La Petite Fleur provided me! She made my wedding cake which was a rolled foundant decorated with the lace to match my wedding gown and catered my wedding dinner which the food was amazing and her catering staff were courteous and helpful and my guest to this day are complementing Jan Kish and all she did for us to make our day special and this was by far the best wedding we have ever attended!!!
We were very lucky to have Jan create delicious cakes and cookies for our wedding weekend. Prior to that, we had seen (and tasted!) her work at several events and we were always impressed by both the appearance and taste of her cake. For our we...
dding, we met with Jan to taste both cake and frosting/cream flavors. She was knowledgeable about what would taste nice with what, but allowed us the creativity to decide. She was also very flexible to having multiple flavors for our wedding cake. For our wedding weekend, we chose a lemon cake with exposed sides for the welcome dinner, 3 flavors for our wedding reception, and sugar cookies as party favors. She took the invite and save-the-date as inspiration for the oceanic colors for the wedding night sweets. Since then, we enjoyed our anniversary tier a year later and it still tasted great! I’ve also ordered another cake from her for a smaller celebration because we were so impressed with everything she’s made.
Ms. Kish was an integral part of making our wedding day so memorable in 1998. We were able to sample the flavors prior to placing our order. We especially loved the flavor combinations available and decided on different combinations for differe...
nt tiers of the cake. We chose chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling, yellow cake with cherries soaked in sautern filling, and white cake with raspberry filling. Additionally, she worked closely with our florist to incorporate the same fresh flowers in the cake that were used in the wedding bouquets. Despite the distance, she traveled 30 miles to assemble our cake. Years later and back in the Columbus area, I continue to order her delicious cakes for special occasions. After making the spectacular cake for my husband's 40th birthday, we received a handwritten note from Jan herself wishing my husband a happy birthday. Fast forward to my husband's 50th birthday, she helped me create a cake that resembled a poker chip. Her wonderful cakes, creativity and personal touch are what keeps me coming back.
Jan is the sweetest baker! Her Red velvet cake tastes amazing, and her cream cheese frosting is the best. She designed a cake for our small wedding and put so much detail into the design, it came out beautifully!
I turned to Jan for help for my nephew’s wedding during the pandemic. We opted for cupcakes in clear bags tied with ribbon that allowed for celebration but with safe serving. It was a small informal affair with boxed “lunches”. The cupcakes we...
re the perfect touch. And they tasted a good as they looked. The small anniversary cake was really pretty but the couple chose to eat cupcakes then and freeze the cake for next year. A perfect ending to a perfect day.
As a male couple, my then fiancé and I were uncertain where to turn for a cake that maintained the celebration of our nuptials but was also 'masculine' in it's aesthetic. We looked at everyone we could find but the cakes were typically designed...
or decorated with more of the bride in mind.
Jan had come highly recommended from others and when we met with her she had several ideas for us to consider. We had found a design online that we really thought spoke to what we wanted as a male couple; it was certainly a wedding cake, it was beautifully decorated with a fall-like theme in colors and sensibility and it looked like a cake we would be thrilled to have as our own. I was honestly apprehensive that anyone could re-create this amazing cake but Jan said she could do it and I put my trust in her.
On the day she called us to see the finished cake I was speechless (no small feat!) It was absolutely perfect! She had handcrafted leaves, fall foliage, acorns and berries all out of Royal icing. They were stunningly beautiful! I wish I could post a photo! We were able to have the top removed and we’re able to keep them - we still enjoy having them in our home!
In addition, she presented us with a small ‘midnight cake’ that matched our larger cake; this was for the two of us to share after the wedding. She also gave us a small boxful of additional royal icing leaves and acorns that she had made but hadn’t used. We gave these to family and friends as small tokens that they adored.
The cake had multiple layers and two of Jan’s signature flavors and everyone who saw it and tasted it was delighted and impressed by it. Jan is a true artist and sweet lady to work with.
Put your trust in Jan – you’ll be thrilled that you did!

Dear Todd,
Thank you so very much for your very heartfelt, and my grateful appreciation, for this wonderful review! I had so much fun working with you both!.. .it was a delight, pleasure and honor to be part of your most important of all ...
days! And I am the lucky one that this friendship has continued forward, with so many fascinating twists and turns in both of our lives! Can't wait to make your parents 50th anniversary cake this weekend, how incredibly fantastic! Let's keep this party going! Much love always, jk.
I highly recommend Jan! She is very sweet and fun. She had my attention when we went for our tasting and she told us about the option to chop the top of a champagne bottle off with a sword!!! We had to reschedule due to Covid and our guest list...
was much smaller than planned for the final wedding date but she was very accommodating. The cake was GORGEOUS and delicious plus the sabering was amazing. I highly recommend adding that service to bring your wedding up 100 notches!!
Jan Kish came to our rescue after our wedding was canceled due to COVID-19. We were forced to do a private ceremony with 10 in our home instead and when I gave this update to Jan, she offered to do a variation of our cake for a smaller amount o...
f guests and it turned out so beautifully!! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful cake and such wonderful service. Thank you so much Jan for helping us to create a beautiful memory of our wedding thanks to the amazing cake you made for us! Would highly recommend Jan Kish!!!
Jan did a wonderful job on our cake! We were unsure in the direction we wanted to go in terms of design and Jan was full of ideas! The cake turned out beautifuly with the design based off patterns in my dress. Jan even came to one of my bridal ...
fittings to see the dress in person! And not only was the cake beautiful, it was delicious. We had three differnt flavors in three different layers and all were wonderful! In addition to the cake, we also had Jan saber champagne at our wedding. It was one of the highlights for our guests! People are still talking about it a few weeks later.
I really struggled with finding a cake that I wanted for my wedding, but from the moment I saw Jan’s gum-paste peony flowers, I fell in love and not only wanted them for my wedding but wanted to save them as a momento of the day. They were beau...
tiful matte white peonies and I can’t wait to look at them every day.
Also, after the tasting, we had a unanimous decision that the daffodil lemon was the perfect flavor for us and it did not disappoint. We had lots of compliments on how delicious the flavor was and everyone wanted another piece the next day!
Janet's finished products will exceed all expectations!
Simply the best in the biz!
The only issue we had was feeling guilty about actually eating her artistic masterpieces :D
I met with Jan and outlined the vision for a very tailored, very personal wedding cake...with a little something extra!! She listened, made suggestions and gave advice. We decided on a two-layer oval cake with a hand-painted monogram in gold wi...
th lightly brushed burgandy outline on the side of the top layer and special saying painted on the side of the bottom layer with same color palate. Ribbon trimming gave a smooth, sophisticated finish. The 'extra' was a hand- painted (to exactly match!), hand-crafted keepsake figure of the bridal couple's four-pawed family member, darling Moose. He sat beside the cake and now resides at home as a treasured keepsake. The cake was absolutely delicious and moist and only a few crumbs remained after the guests were served.
I can only tell you what my experience was with this delightful, uber-talented, experienced culinary artist. CALL and set up an appointment. She can make your less-is-more (like mine) or your over-the-top (wait til you see her albums) a reality. I will add that I have also had the wonderful opportunity to enjoy her cookies, mints, cakes and cupcakes (with her incredible buttercream icing) at different occasions which are fab as well.
It's impossible to represent how INCREDIBLE Jan Kish and her team at La Petite Fleur are...my husband and I were blown away. Jan spent quite a bit of time on the phone with me prior to our wedding to determine cake design (these were LONG conve...
rsations, as I was quite unclear about what I was hoping for), and she helped us find the most-beautiful and perfect design! Then, Jan SHIPPED our wedding cake to Washington State...and it arrived in absolutely perfect condition! She is an expert in getting a gorgeous cake to its final destination. Finally...our wedding cake was absolutely DELICIOUS. I have been to countless weddings where the cake was quite pretty, but tasted like cardboard...this was not the case with a cake from La Petite Fleur. The cake was moist and richly-flavored...it was just perfect.
Jan also personally drove a cake to our East Coast wedding reception...and, yet again, it was stunning...and delicious.
I cannot recommend Jan Kish and her team at La Petite Fleur enough!
Looking for an amazing cake for your special occasion? Look no further. La Petite Fleur will exceed your expectations. Jan Kish was fun to work with, and has a beautiful talent. It looks great, but how does it taste? Phenomenal.
The bride and groom had met on a climbing wall and she designed the cake with symbols of this sport, primarily ropes. It was charming. It also had to be transported by plane in two pieces. Jan provided the know-how and the tools necessary to...
reassemble it on site. It was delicious and much admired by all.
Working with Jan Kish is always amazing. She took the time to listen to our ideas and created the perfect cake for us. Not only was it spectacular, it was delicious! I'd give 6 stars if I could!
Jan is an incredible cake artist that matches what a pleasure it was to work with her! Jan was able to take our vision for our cake and turn it into just what we were looking for. The design was intricate, classic, methodical and beautiful. H...
owever, it was hard to focus on the look of the cake while eating the cake because it tasted so good! The cake was a huge hit.. nothing else got eaten at the desert table until the cake was gone. Not only was the cake incredible but Jan mixed in some personal touches that meant a lot to my wife and I! Jan was the right, and only, choice for our wedding/cake and we would certainly recommend to whoever will listen or read! Thank you Jan and Jan Kish La Petite Fleur.
We loved working with Jan for our wedding. In fact, she did the cake for our other married child and we wouldn't have considered anyone. She was a pleasure to work with and her attention to detail was remarkable. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed t...
he sabering, too! She's the best!
Jan was wonderful to work with and her cake was a piece of art. She created a cake that matched the intricate details of my wedding dress. It was delicious and we received a ton of compliments. I highly recommend a Jan Kish cake!
Jan is a master at her craft. She created the wedding cake and groom's cake for our daughter's New Year's Eve wedding. Her artistry and creativity is second to none. In addition, Jan has also made numerous incredible birthday cakes for us ov...
er the years. Her cupcakes for a baby shower were beautiful, elegant and scrumptious. Do not second guess your choice to hire La Petite Fleur for your next event. She will NOT disappoint, but she will WOW you and your guests.
The experience of ordering my daughters wedding cake from Jan Kish was fantastic from start to finish! Her creative and artistic ideas at the cake tasting were enhanced by her cozy sitting room and wonderful samples. The day of the wedding the ...
delivery of the cake went off without a hitch! The appearance of the cake was just exquisite! Upon cutting the cake we enjoyed the cake and filling flavors as well as the fondant! Every morsel was absolutely delicious!!!
Jan Kish is professional, thoughtful and her cakes are the very best!
Jan's work is impeccable! Not only was it important to us for our cake to look stunning, but we didn't want to sacrifice TASTE. With Jan our cakes both looked gorgeous and tasted delicious too! The quality of her products and service exceeded o...
ur expectations. Our groom's cake was a personalized Monopoly board with so many details from the lives of both my husband and I. Our wedding cake was multiple tiers, each a different flavor, and its resembled that of my wedding dress. We had such a positive experience that we have even ordered birthday cakes and shower cupcakes from her since our wedding. Highly recommend!
I want to compliment Jan Kish of La Petite Fleur in Columbus Ohio, for the many creative and delicious cakes she has made us over the years. Give her just a little idea of what you are thinking, and she will come up with an award winning cake f...
or the occasion.
For my sons wedding reception on a Ohio River sternwheeler, she designed a beautiful three tier cake with a flowing blue icing, to follow the River theme. After reviewing many flavor choices, my daughter in-law had selected the White Swan as her favorite. But baking the cake in Columbus and presenting it on the boat was a significant challenge. She designed and baked the cake in Columbus and then had a two hour drive to Cincinnati. Jan then had to carry it down a steep hill from the parking lot, across a swinging gangway and up two flights of narrow steps. It was a challenging trip.
Having the cake displayed as we cruised the River, was the highlight of the meal. And when served, the cake itself was fantastic and commented on by all. Our son Mike and bride Jessica were thrilled with the presentation and the compliments from our guests were the “icing” on the evening for us.
Jan has also made a lovely cake when my wife and I redid our vows on our wedding anniversary. This was a two tier oval cake topped with fresh flowers. And she created a delightful retirement party cake for us, that was served at a fly fishing club. In this case, she made a full sized, old fashioned fishing creel. It appeared to be made of woven willow branches with a leather strap and silver buckle. It was displayed with all the accoutrements of a fly fishing day, including a box filled with realistic looking flies. At its side was a coconut trout ( for me), and a placard that said “Gone Fishing. It was charming and fun!
We will keep coming back to Jan Kish, for the beautiful memories she has given us.
Jan Kish was the perfect person to pick for my wedding cake and wedding. She is such a unique and fun woman with an endless number of ideas for your cake and cake presentation. She made me my dream wedding cake with ivory and pink watercolor b...
uttercream icing, adorned with gold leaf. The best was that she made me a 3D keepsake of my sweet French Bulldog Charlie to put on top of the cake. Not only was our cake beautiful but it was DELICIOUS!! Her choice of flavorings for your cake are amazing. Jane also performed a sabering of our champagne bottle for our champagne toast which was so fun and a special touch to our wedding reception! Jan is lovely and I will continue to hire her to make cakes for me for all of my big life celebrations!
In looking over my wedding photos I am affirmed in what I already knew.... the cake was clearly leaning while there was an indentation on the third tier. Also, the higher layers seemed to be sinking into their lower brethren.
Also, Jan broke ...
my grandparents’ cake topper, which was used at their wedding 50 years ago. (Good job icing the groom’s head back together!).
For what it cost, I would expect perfection.
Yes this was years ago. It’s been bugging me for years.

Hi Sarah,
I am so glad that you wrote this and am so sorry that you hadn't shared this with me before now, when there was a possibility of doing something about it. I wonder, would you be so kind as to send me a photo of your cake and let m...
e know where you reception was? What you have described above just doesn't seem right. And if all you have stated above is indeed the case I would gladly have compensated you for it. My phone is 614.841.9794, if you could text it off to me that would be wonderful. Breaking a cake topper of such value, well I would have remembered that for sure! When was this exactly? I keep all my records so if you could also include your maiden name that would be appreciated. With much Sincerity, Jan Kish. 10.29.19. Dear Sarah, I have been waiting for a response from you since you were so incredibly disappointed. It would very helpful if you sent me a picture of your cake since you were just recently looking at your photos, it would be of great help to see what went wrong...I can't believe that you didn't call me and share your unhappiness, so once again if you might send me a photo of you cake, it would be most helpful, with true Sincerity, Jan Kish. 614.841.9794
One of the most lasting memories of my wedding day was the exquisite cake designed by Jan Kish! To express my love for flowers, Jan created a stunning garland of delicate sugar flowers cascading down the side of the five- tiered wedding cake. ...
Each flower was hand designed in soft rose or peach colored hues, and individual petals were tipped with gold. The cake was a beautiful work of art, admired by our guests. Equally important, our guests enjoyed the delicious cake, which was so moist and flavorful! There is no comparison to a cake designed by Jan Kish!
In addition to the wedding cake, Jan provided a wonderful assortment of cookies for our dessert bar. The cannolis and monogrammed sugar cookies were a hit! Jan is both a talented artist and a marvelous baker. She is a professional with years of experience, and she has an amazing ability to create any vision. Finally, she devotes an impressive amount of attention to detail. It is truly a pleasure working with Jan!

Dear Karen, thank you so much for this wonderful review! Your wedding was so beautiful on all fronts and we were delighted to be asked to be a part of it! And we are crazy over the details and the flavors, hoping that one compliments the other....
And we did indeed enjoy offering you other desserts, especially the cannoli, which are impossible to stay out of, we always have to make a few extra to keep the staff from rebelling! You are very much appreciated and it was fun making a new friend in the process. Take care and Congratulations all over the place, fondly, Jan.
Jan made a magnificent cake for our wedding!!! She alone designed the enchanting setting to go with our special event! She created 4 rolled fondant cakes that matched the lace on my dress perfectly and surrounded them with a gingerbread castl...
e for the kids to enjoy! The entire scene was lit from within for a magical presentation! It was complete with a tiny little mouse scurrying over the drawbridge and a glass carriage. I cannot even describe all of the fine details that she put into this masterpiece!!!
Besides being so creative, she was so easy to work with and professional! Jan was always punctual with our appointments and always kept in contact with me throughout the entire process. From the moment that I met her, she put me at ease and gave me complete faith that everything would go well. (At least I didn't have to worry about the cake.) I would describe Jan as a professional professional!

Jan Kish created the most beautiful and delicious wedding cake for our big day. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail shined brightly as the cake was the main centerpiece for our reception. The cake’s unique designed allowed us to have sev...
eral different flavor options. The cake arrived on-time and in perfect condition.
Also, for our 5-year anniversary, she recreated a single tier from the cake and I was able to surprise my wife with it at our dinner.
Thank you, Jan!
We had a very large, over-the-top Halloween themed wedding. Jan not only jumped on the band wagon, she drove it! (In full costume, if I may add.) Every crazy idea we threw at her, she took in stride and built on. Jan provided us with everything...
we asked for...including chocolate skull walnut "brain" candies.
Her flavors are amazing and her design skills are out of this world! She is punctual, a great communicator, and definitely a team player. Jan worked incredibly well with all our vendors.
Though she may appear to be a small operation, don't let that fool you; she can handle large orders. Jan provided our wedding cake, take-away hand pies for each of our 230 guests and the chocolate candies I mentioned before. It was also my husband's 60th birthday and she pulled off a surprise Monopoly™ board cake for him at our wedding. (It's one of his greatest treasures hanging proudly in his office!)
Do yourself a favor and let Jan Kish of La Petite Fleur do the baking for you. You won't be sorry!
Jan created an amazing multi-layer masterpiece for us filled with different flavors! It was a main centerpiece at the reception! The matching cake for our room was a perfect addition to the magical day. She was prompt and delivered directly to ...

Jan performed a sabering as well, which was fun and helped make our daughter's wedding a night to remember! Cannot recommend her more highly and will call on her again, the next time we want something unique, special and beautiful.

My husband and I were lucky enough to have Jan Kish make our gorgeous wedding and grooms cakes. Her attention to detail on both was superb! Our wedding was in the fall so orange was a big theme in decor. The flowers on the cake looked so real n...
o one could believe they were edible. In addition to the outside of the cake being stunning, the actual taste of the cake was so delicious! This was not a wedding cake people left on their plates when served. We had so many friends come up to us and let us know how they had never had such a yummy wedding cake ever. The cake we ate on our one year anniversary that we had put in the freezer was even amazing. Not only did Jan nail every detail from taste to aesthetic she even made sure our cake made it from Columbus, Ohio to Florida where we were married. I honestly don’t think there is anything this woman can’t do!

Soon we'll have to start working with the grandchildren...OMG, is that possible..I guess so, yikes! I will forever be a your beck and call! Always, jk.
Jan did such an amazing job on the cake for our wedding. My husband & I couldn't have been happier. The attention to detail was over the top - plus Jan's cake was so delicious. We've used her wonderful services for special birthdays, family ...
weddings and anniversaries. It was very nice to have her be a part of our special day. Thanks Jan!!!!

Dear Jim and Duane,
It was an absolute honor not only to create your really fun! wedding cake but also to be a guest at such a SPARTACULAR reception! Columbus didn't know what they were in for! What an experience for all of us and truly ex...
pert coordination of everything! Thank you always for thinking of me, especially when it comes to cake! Always, jk.
My daughter's wedding cake was a six-tier white buttercream that was adorned with flowers. The cake tasted delicious, looked beautiful, and was delivered in mint condition. Jan was replied quickly to calls and texts, which I appreciated. I pers...
onally liked Jan, and would work with her again. I did feel too much "upsale" pressure throughout the early planning process. Not everyone can, or is willing to, spend thousands of dollars on a cake, especially since weddings are expensive enough, and that decision ought to be respected. But overall, Jan reliably delivers an excellent product, and I do recommend her highly.

Dear Dr. Fox,
Thank you for your kind and appreciative words! I am so happy that you and your daughter we pleased with the end result, and that you'll perhaps come back for birthdays and holidays. I'm sorry you felt pressured for the thought o...

Do take care and stay up on that could 9! Sincerely Jan.
Jan made a work of art for our special day! The way she captured our style, theme, and wishes was unparalleled. Also, the cake was absolutely delicious! We can not recommend Jan enough!

Jan is the best in the business when it comes to cake! Her designs will blow you away and the cake is absolutely devine!! Going with somebody else would be selling yourself short. Not only a cake, but a masterpiece and trophy! Thank you Jan!!

My husband and I were married in May 2017. Our cake was a big part of our day and we wanted it to be something spectacular that people would remember. Jan truly delivered! We went through a tasting and a few design meetings because of the intri...
cate design and Jan was wonderful through the whole process, even when I kept changing my mind! The cake also TASTED WONDERFUL. We had 4 different flavors and I could not pick a favorite if I had to! I would recommend her over and over again to anyone! Thank you so much for adding such a spectacular piece to our wonderful day --Jan Kish at La Petite Fleur!
Response from the Vendor on 12/04/2017
Thank You for the review! I love meeting with clients who have a vision and want to translate that into cake. I'm glad we made your special day tasty! -Jan
Jan Kish's wedding cakes are edible works of art. Our cake was gorgeous, and delicious! The crowd pleasing flavor for my guests was the black walnut cake, with a cream cheese frosting. However you can't go wrong with any flavor, they are all to...
die for. As for the design of our cake, before our consultation we really didn't know what we wanted our cake to look like. Jan walked us through some of her previous designs, and from that helped us create something unique that matched perfectly with our wedding colors, and aesthetic preferences. The day before the wedding, Jan called us up to ask if she could add a design element that she though was missing. It was a small tweak, but she was absolutely right, and it turned out great. I loved that attention to detail, and personal communication about the design. It isn't something you always find with a large baker. Thank you Jan Kish for the perfect cake!
Response from the Vendor on 12/04/2017
Hello, Thank you for the kind review! I love the black walnut cake, it is always a crowd pleaser. Its always a fun challenge to create a cake with different aspects to create one truly customized cake. Thank you for letting be a part of your m...

Jan was so great to worth with. She gave us exactly what we wanted and she was always giving ideas on how to make the cake unique for us. She did such a beautiful job and we thank The refectory for recommending her to us.
Response from the Vendor on 12/04/2017
Thanks so much for the review! I'm so happy you chose me to have a part in your most special day! -Jan
Jan works out of her lovely home in Worthington Ohio. We had two meetings with Jan prior to the wedding day. She let us taste multiple popular flavors each time, which was nice and they all tasted great. She is willing to work with you to creat...
e a custom cake flavor combo. As far as cake design, I chose an on trend cake design that was very simple (I had my florist decorate with fresh flowers) and felt she wanted it to be more complicated. She didn't seem too thrilled with my design choice. In the end though I loved my cake, and she gave me exactly what I asked for! I would just say to be a little more positive about what your bride wants even if you have made 100 cakes like that, and when doing the tastings, the cake was quite dry. 3/5 stars!
Jan's cake was beyond words! Each layer offered savory delights! The design was simply elegant with Jan's special touch! If you are looking for a cake for any occasion, Jan should be your "go-to" contact!
Response from the Vendor on 08/10/2017
Thank you so much for your kind words! We strive for excellence with all of our cakes and I'm delighted you enjoyed yours!
Xo,
Jan
Jan's cake was spectacular! It was so beautiful and the taste was to die for. She was easy and fun to work with. I would HIGHLY recommend her if someone you know is in the market for a weeding cake!

Thank you for your review! Its always fun meeting with clients that have a flurry of ideas! Its a guarantees that their cake is one of a kind!
Thanks again,
J. Kish
Jan is amazing. We decided to get the sabering which was a huge hit and the cake was more than we could have imagined. She is a true artist and I almost didn't want to cut our beautiful cake except that it tasted as good as it looked.
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you so much for your review! I love the added touch of sabering at the reception, it adds so much of a bang! All the guests are always amazed with the performance. It truly makes your wedding that are special and unique.
Jan
My husband and I won a discount on our wedding cake by La Petite Fleur for my military service, which made purchasing our wedding cake from Jan that much sweeter! Jan did a wonderful job on our three-tier, fall-themed wedding cake! She made it ...
appear as though fall-colored maple leaves were tumbling down the side of our cake, which was exactly what I wanted and it matched the rest of our theme wonderfully. Jan made the whole process very easy, especially on the day of the wedding (which is always much appreciated for an overwhelmed bride!). The cake was so delicious! I would recommend Jan to anyone looking for beautiful cake creator for their wedding or other special occasions.
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Hello,
Thank you so much for your review. I am thankful for your family's service and this is a small token to show how much it means to all of us.
Thank you again,
Jan Kish
Jan is world-renowned for her cakes. And they are works of art. She will create whatever you imagine your dream cake to be. And, as a past winner of the TLC Ultimate Cake Challenge "Best Tasting Cake" award, you can be sure that her cakes ar...
e as delicious on the inside as they are beautiful on the out.
For my daughter's wedding, she worked with us to design an English/vintage multi-layered cake using cake pans that she designed and patented - the English Boxwood Garden. Adding iridescence to a Wedgewood jasperware blue and cream-colored designs/swags gave the cake a vintage feel with a modern shimmer.
The couple are fans of the Dole Pineapple Whip soft-serve dessert only served at Disney World. Jan created her own cake flavor that captured the unique taste that they love. She used it as the cake flavor in the "midnight cake" awaiting the couple in their hotel room.
In short, when you work with Jan, you work with an artist who will take your wishes to a new level. She'll ask you lots of questions, offer tastes of many flavors and show you albums of her work that will make the cake another treasured wedding party member.
Response from the Vendor on 02/20/2017
Dear Robyn and Deb, thank you for such a glowing review! I loved working with you, of course, and designing your cake was pure delight! I wish we could do it all over again! Congratulations all over the place, fondly, jk.
We could not of asked for a more beautiful and great tasting wedding! Jan and team never disappoint. Very easy to work with and the planning meetings are tasty as well!
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you so much for the review. I am glad that your cake made your special day that much sweeter!

Jan is absolutely amazing! I ended up waiting until the last minute to order my cake. I called Jan and thankfully she was available to do our wedding. When I first met Jan I loved her! She is so nice and funny. I was very impressed with how man...

Response from the Vendor on 02/20/2017
You are soooo welcome! How did the anniversary tier taste? I hope as good as the first go round! Happy, Happy, sincerely, Jan Kish.
Jan's approach was unique. We chose the cake design and chose the taste to the components of the cake after two meetings. Finally, our cake was personally delivered to the wedding venue by Jan. Our cake looked gorgeous and tasted great. We love...

Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018

Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you for kind review! So glad your guests enjoyed having seconds, or at least some of them! We do all sorts of celebration cakes if you are ever in need of any special occasion cake!

Jan Kish created the most beautiful and delicious cake for my wedding! She also did the champagne sabering which was a huge hit at the reception! I wouldn't have changed a thing! It was perfect!
Response from the Vendor on 08/20/2018
Although a few years out, I want to tell you how much I appreciate your kind words and am so glad you were not only pleased with your Wedding Cake but also the Sabering, which I think is a wonderful way to not only launch you marriage but your ...
reception! I hope you are both super well and that life is perking along with perfection! So Many thank yous, Sincerely, Jan Kish.
My fiancé and I have never been so disappointed by a wedding vendor during our planning process as we were today at our tasting. We personally made an appointment to meet with Jan back in January at the Bridal Expo.
When we arrived at our co...
nsultation, at a residential duplex in Worthington, we were extremely caught off guard when Jan was out of town on vacation and left an employee to lead the consultation. During the consultation we saw cats in the next room in the kitchen area. My fiancé and I wouldn't have kept this appointment had we known that there would be cats roaming around in the same room as production and that Jan herself wouldn't even be present. This is not the level of professionalism we expected for the price of her work.
Jan Kish will make your little-girl dreams of your wedding cake come true! For my (second) wedding, I told my now-husband that if I could have a Jan Kish cake and all the flowers I wanted, the other details didn't matter very much. It was a goo...
d call! We had a surprise wedding in our own backyard, but the gorgeous and impressive cake from La Petite Fleur, helped the event have an air of luxury. Further, Jan's cakes are completely delicious. So many wedding cakes are pretty but disappointing to eat, and that was certainly not the case with our cake from La Petite Fleur. Guests tripped over each other for a second piece! The best part of all is...Jan is doing my baby shower cake this year!
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you so much for the review! I am glad that we are your go to cake people! Hopefully there are extra pieces at the baby shower so no one is tripping over you to get a second piece! Do take care of each other, fondly, jk.
Our cake was stunningly beautiful and equally, if not more important, absolutely delicious!!! If there was a place to attach a photo here, I would and I am sure you would agree! Jan Kish was so great to work with too. She really made me feel ...
special (even though I know she has 100 other brides to attend to too). She helped me create a design that was meaningful, replicating the design of my wedding dress and my Mom's in alternating layers. We picked the spice, New England Blueberry (my favorite), Lemon Raspberry and Red Velvet (my husband's favorite). YUM! I truly can't say enough great things about this vendor - she is truly a talented artist with a warm heart and fair pricing! I didn’t have to worry about a thing and she brought all my wedding cake dreams to life!
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you for the kind words. I am so glad that you loved your cake! Its always that much more special to have the cake design match the dress. It makes the day that much more unique and special. I hope we get to work with you to make a spe...
cial occasions cake just as special. Big Congratulations! Fondly, Jan.
We used Jan Kish for our cake and it couldnt have turned out any better! She met with us multiple times, answered all of our questions and worked with us to give us exactly what we wanted. The cake was beautiful and absolutely delicious!
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank You for your review! I'm always happy to meet, its very important that your dream cake is done exactly the way you imagine it! Fondly, Jan.
My husband and I were married on September, 29th 2012. My mom was helping me plan our big day and it was very important to her that we had a spectacular cake. I had seen some of Jan Kish's cakes at a bridal show and knew she could deliver somet...
hing amazing. We met with Jan several times to do tastings, pick out flavors and come up with a design -- she was so sweet and knowledgeable and a true artist! I wanted a cake that hadn't been done before, so she came up with an idea based on a fabric pattern she had seen on a piece of furniture. I knew the cake was going to be beautiful, but when I walked into my reception room at the Ohio Statehouse, I was blown away, as was my mom. It was stunning! Not only did the cake look beautiful, but it tasted amazing! All of my guests raved about this cake. Many said it was "the best cake ever." We had a special top tier to eat in our hotel room on our wedding night, which was so special and I can't wait to eat the anniversary tier on our first anniversary. We were so lucky to have such a beautiful cake and I can't recommend Jan Kish enough. If you want a spectacular cake that tastes amazing--contact Jan Kish at La Petite Fleur!
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you so much for the kind words!! The midnight cake is always appreciated after the long day. Most brides don't even get to eat their cake! i am glad that you both got to have some on your special day! Congratulations forever!

Todd and I have seen some beautiful cakes in our time and like any couple planning to marry, we wanted OUR cake to be unique and unforgettable! Jan Kish met with us and offered up several amazing choices of cake flavors and to discuss our event...
! We shared several ideas and Jan demonstrated a great deal of creativity. We expressed what we thought we wanted and she exceeded our every expectation! The cake was unbelievably beautiful! It was an 11-11-11 wedding, so we were planning a fall theme.
When we walked in, we were greeted by the most beautiful cake surrounded by a dazzling display of multi-colored fallen leaves and baby acorns, topped with an array of rich flowers and fiddle fern - all hand sculpted out of fine sugar! No one - including the two of us - could believe that they weren't real flowers - simply amazing in their lifelike appearance!
Some guests ever so gently touched the delicate leaves that were placed on the cake table and we watched their surprise when they realized that they were touching a work of art! We were simply stunned and can't thank her enough for creating such an amazing and unforgettable cake for our once in a lifetime event! And as amazing as the cake looked, it tasted just as delicious!!
Thank you, Jan! You're the BEST! ~Doug & Todd
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Dear Doug and Todd,
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are all about the details! Fall is my favorite season to work with, and your wedding day date will be one to remember!

My cake was wonderful! It was exactly what I wanted. It tasted so yummy! She listened to what I wanted and provided additional ideas.
Response from the Vendor on 01/09/2018
Thank you for the great review and Congratulations to you on ever level! Hugs, jk.
From first meeting Jan and collaborating with her on ideas for our cake, to tasting it on our wedding day was such a great experience! Our wedding was on the smaller side about 85 people. So we decided to do a small tiered cake solely for the ...
bride and groom and used it as the center piece for our table. It was the perfect cake! The chocolate and butter-cream layers were beautifully adorned with a pear green fondant matching the bridal colors. To balance the off sided top tier were two scaling green cymbidium orchids, added to match the one I wore in my hair. It was such a clean and delicate design next to the classic white linens. I never would have changed a thing!
For our guests we offered an assorted dessert buffet from the venue. It worked out great and had so many compliments on it.
Many thanks to Jan at La Petite Fleur for her wonderful creative aesthetic and for making this part of our wedding so special!
