We ordered our wedding cake from Kathryn's and were so happy with the results. We selected a lemon cake with raspberry filling, with a simple textured design of white frosting. She also made matching dairy free / gluten free cupcakes for our guests with dietary restrictions. There were no delivery issues on the day of the wedding, and the cake was probably the best lemon cake we've ever had. We look forward to ordering from Kathryn's again for other occasions.
Kathryn makes the best cake and frosting I've ever had, it's just a bonus that our cake was also beautifully designed!
When it came time to pick a wedding cake and find someone to recreate the vision we had in our heads we knew we might have our work cut out for us. She’s allergic to dairy, he’s allergic to nuts, and together we’re challenging to accommodate (especially when it comes to confections). All that being said, we cannot state it emphatically enough: Kathryn was the PERFECT person for the job! Right from the very first phone call she could not have been more accommodating and reassuring. Her willingness to hear us out and her confidence in her ability to get the job done put us at ease right away. She was able to make three cakes which were some of the best vegan desserts we’ve ever tasted and we ended up choosing the Funfetti, which nobody else could even offer us as an option. Kathryn is very laid back and personable which creates a comfortable environment and made our discussion feel like just that, as opposed to a meeting with a vendor. We showed her a picture of how we wanted the cake to be decorated and Kathryn shared in our enthusiasm for how it looked. Not only could she do it but she never gave us a reason to doubt that she could pull it off. Our initial thought process had us just getting a small vegan cake for ourselves and then getting the rest of the desserts for our guests from a local bake shop we were more familiar with. However, after window shopping the display case and subsequently wiping the drool from our faces we found ourselves asking Kathryn more and more questions about other desserts. For X number of guests how many desserts should we have? How many different varieties would you recommend? So forth and so on. Kathryn gave us her honest recommendations and didn’t try to ‘sell’ us on anything. Everything she was saying was making sense, the pricing was very reasonable, timing, delivery, all of the logistics would be taken care of. Essentially, it all boiled down to “tell me what you want, and I’ll make it happen.” What more could you possibly ask for from someone you just met? We left the shop that day stress free; no money down, a promise to hold the date unless she heard otherwise from us, and no hard feelings if we chose to go another route. We looked at each other and we both knew we were going to go with Kathryn’s Confections but didn’t want to rush into anything. Picked out a few things to take home (cannoli, biscotti, chocolate covered Oreos and s’mores bites) and went on our way. One bite into that cannoli and the deal was sealed. Another wedding task scratched off our list, and we never had to think twice. We ended up getting all of our desserts from Kathryn’s Confections: three different kinds of cookies, two different flavors of whoopie pies, cannoli, and of course our vegan Funfetti cake. There were never any concerns about anything and we owe her and her staff a thank you for that alone. Fast forward to the wedding day and everything was perfect. The cake came out better than anything we could have imagined; and all of the desserts were a big hit. We saw a number of guests taking pictures and making multiple trips up to the dessert table, not a single morsel was left at the end of the night. Truthfully, we even had a few people text us the following day asking where the desserts were from because they left such a lasting impression (with an open bar no less).
Kathryn is the best. We've used her for countless other events (showers, birthdays, etc.) and her cakes are SO GOOD we just couldn't imagine using someone else. My now-husband isn't a cake guy - but he LOVES her funfetti with buttercream frosting. We had a gorgeous 3-tier cake at our wedding for 100 people with simple icing and added flowers and a topper, and it was perfect. She was also able to add gluten-free cupcakes for our GF guests, and they were so happy to be able to enjoy the cake. Planning and ordering was a breeze - we highly recommend!
Kathryn made the cupcakes for our wedding and they were DELICIOUS and GORGEOUS! She did an amazing job and was able to customize them exactly how we wanted.
Kathryn was an absolute joy to work with. My fiancé and I ended up moving our wedding date up due to some familial things and needed a cake within 2 weeks. Kathryn was so accommodating and helpful with picking out a type of cake and letting me send her our ideas. The day of our wedding the cake was on time, looked gorgeous, and most importantly it was delicious! My grandma has celiac disease and said the gluten free cupcake they brought for her was great as well. I would highly recommended Kathryn’s Confections and hope to work with her again.
Kathyrn made our wedding cake and we were so happy with how it came out and it was the best tasting cake as well!! She was excellent to work with and affordable too!! I would recommend her bakery to anyone!
Kathryn did cupcakes for our wedding. I am gluten free and she was able to do a gluten-free cake as the cutting cake for me. Kathryn was amazing! super professional and helpful. Cakes/cupcakes were delicious! We expected to have extra at our wedding...but there wasn't a single one left! Very happy we chose Kathryn's confections for our wedding.
Kathryn was the best!! We were able to keep our budget and get the best wedding cake ever :) She was really professionnel and thought about every detail! She was always here even after the 100th call of the day!! The filling was perfect not too heavy and not too empty!! Our families had the opposite tastes but everyone loved it :) we couldn’t choose a better place ! On top of all that we didn’t explode our budget! Everything was perfect !
Kathryn is amazing! She came to our house to do a tasting of the different flavor combinations she can create, and she was so nice and easy to work with. We decided on marbled cake with chocolate ganache and vanilla cake with strawberry filling. They came out so beautiful. I had sent her pictures of what I liked for decorations and she recreated it perfectly. Even made purple calla lilies to sit on top some of the cup cakes, all the guests loved them. We will definitely be using Kathryn again!
