Heather recently did our cake for our wedding and completely blew us away with her work! Heather is compassionate, flexible, and extremely responsive. I would order from here again...
in a heart beat!
I talked with Heather over email and provided her with some inspiration photos. We wanted a plain white frosting cake, decorated with fruits and florals - to match the center pieces of our table. This required Heather to reach out to my florist to collaborate and ensure both visions were aligned. She did just that. Our cake couldn’t have turned out more beautiful. You could truly see the thought, attention to detail, and care that went into the creation. Many of our vendors told us it is one of the most beautiful cakes they have seen.
Our wedding was on Mackinac Island and I couldn’t stop worrying about how I was going to get my cake to an island!! On a ferry and then on a horse drawn carriage!!! Heather is so accommodating for any situation. She met my family at the ferry dock, cake in hand, and it arrived to the venue in perfect condition.
You’re probably wondering how the cake tasted? 100/10. We had no cake left! We loved it, our guests loved it. The cake was rich in flavor, moist, and the frosting was PERFECT. Not too heavy, not too sweet, but perfect. There is nothing else to say on the taste. Once you take a bite for yourself, you’ll understand.
I also thought Heather’s prices were 1000% worth the delivered outcome.
Please please don’t think twice about working with Heather for your next cake!! My experience was wonderful in every aspect, and if the occasion ever arises where I need another event dessert, I will be going straight to Heather!

Heather was an absolute joy to work with! She made the most beautiful and delicious wedding desserts we could have asked for. We had a lot of gluten free desserts and you would not...
have even known they were GF, so yummy and our guests couldn't stop raving about them! Heather also made the most beautiful floral designs with buttercream on our two tier wedding cake that my husband and I sliced into. It not only looked exactly like the Pinterest picture I sent Heather (which speaks to her amazing artistry!), it was also so flavorful and moist, which I feel like is so uncommon with dessert made in large quantities!
Heather was also always so quick to respond and a wonderful communicator, which I really appreciated as the bride. We also got to do a tasting in conjunction with booking with her, which was so helpful.
Beyond our two tier cake, we did multiple sheet cakes, cookies, and lemon bars, and I can't recommend all of those goodies enough! I got to have a few cookies two weeks after the wedding that my mom was smart enough to freeze, and they were AMAZING. Heather helped estimate the quantity to order for our guest count, and I was so glad we didn't run out. We also put out goodie bags so guests could take home some. Overall, we were so blessed to work with Heather for our wedding day desserts and would recommend her to anyone (especially those looking for people who do GF well!)!
