Renata, the baker of Lovely Cakes is absolutely amazing.
For starters, the cakes are absolutely delicious. They are perfectly moist, deliciously filled, and taste marvelous. My husband and I had a hard time in actually deciding which flavor... to use, so Renata worked with us and allowed us to choose the three fillings we were stuck between (we opted for strawberry preserves, pineapple buttercream, and cookies and cream buttercream). And I will say, we had a lot of cake which we brought home left over from the wedding the night before. The cake remained delicious and moist for the few days after the wedding which it took us to eat it (and believe me, not a crumb was left).
Moreover, the cakes are absolutely stunning. Lovely Cakes did our wedding cake and a groom's cake, which I surprised my husband with. We came up with designs during our consultation, and I can tell you, the cakes are ten times more beautiful and stunning in person than on paper. She incorporated every color from our wedding (black, white, and purple), and even stenciled on the demask pattern which was a theme throughout our wedding.
More importantly though, the groom's cake was to die for. It has been two weeks since the wedding and people are still talking about it. My brother-in-law even told us to find a way to preserve it and display it (but that is silly and it was too delicious not to eat). I gave Renata a crazy idea of a golf cart (my husband works on a golf course), with our dog (who goes to work with him everyday), and other little details. Somehow, she incorporated all of these ideas and pulled it off perfectly. The club car looked like an exact replica, as well as the chocolate mold of our dog sitting on the cart (even the dimensions looked perfectly life-like). The details were perfect, down to the treads on the tires to the towel on the seat, and the hose in the bed.
Overall, her cakes are absolutely beautiful and delicious. Highly recommended.
