Luscious & Sweet Gourmet Bakery

y compliments on the cake how beautiful it was and how amazing it tasted. The cake tasted absolutely delicious!! We can’t wait to eat the first anniversary cake, I am sure it will still be delicious!

but when we told our baker what it was we were looking for she was able to bring it to life. I'm used to either a cake tasting good, but not being pretty or vice versa, but that was far from the case with our cake! It was beautiful and tasted amazing! The Viennese options were a huge hit too!

ss! The customer service at the bakery is like no other, they are so accommodating and kind. I will definitely use Luscious and Sweet for my wedding cake, and any occasions to come. I HIGHLY recommend this amazing bakery! - Brittany H.

re 4-tier cake myself, and I'm not usually a cake eater. My husband and I plan to order a cake for our anniversary from Luscious & Sweet, even though we have to travel 3 hours each way to get it. Worth it!

g ready for my big day they were showing the venue to others. I paid to get their earlier so no one besides my wedding party and guests should have been there. My family who seen that didn't like that. Besides that everyone loved the venue.. Gorgeous place!

had all the money in the world and could do my wedding over again, I would still choose the Carriage House. They simply made our wedding day beyond perfect and truly made me feel like a complete princess. I didn't have a SINGLE worry the entire day - it was dreamy to be honest. Kristin sold us on the venue, Lauren did an incredible job helping us plan every step of the way, and the entire staff treated us like royalty the day of. If you can, use this as your venue. I promise you, it will be the wedding you have always dreamed of. Best wishes!

of my bridal party, family and guests everyone is still raving. Carly and Lauren were amazing throughout the planning process. They worked with me through every step and made sure I was happy and comfortable with everything and made changes constantly as I changed my mind back and forth. They were always available to answer questions and I always felt important. They kept everything moving so well so we were able to enjoy the entire day. I could not thank all of them enough or asked for a better venue for my wedding day.

very detail down pact. It made one of the most stressful but most memorable days of my life, less stressful and allowed me to take in every moment. On behalf of Angelo and I, we want to whole heartedly thank you for giving us the experience of a lifetime.

Guests commented that it was one of the best weddings they attended.

h and our day went by without fault due to them! Our guests praised the staff for their service and professionalism. Our wedding day was everything we asked for and more. The Carriage House went above and beyond and we enjoyed working with every person we met throughout the planning process.

were extremely helpful and accommodating. From the moment we first spoke with them over the phone, they were professional, friendly, caring, and not at all pushy. They were more than happy to provide us with all the information we needed, look at pictures of designs we liked, discuss what they could do for us, and estimate a very accurate and reasonable price. After seeing a picture of the design we liked, the wedding coordinator came right out and told us they had never done anything like it before. Instead of suggesting a different design, however, she was super excited to try something new and guaranteed it would look gorgeous! When we met with her for our tasting, we were completely blown away! To our great surprise and enjoyment, she didn’t come out with a tray of sample bites of cake, like most bakeries do; she came out with three sample cakes! These cakes were literally the size of those “individual” pies from grocery store bakeries and tasted beyond describable. My husband and I are not huge dessert people, but we ate every single bite; they were SO good! The day of the wedding our cake was delivered right before the wedding ceremony began, so it would be as fresh as possible for the reception, and looked stunning! Somehow, Luscious and Sweet did an even better job with the design than the picture; all of us were blown away by the beauty of it. When it was time to cut the cake, it tasted as amazing as it looked…maybe even better if that’s possible =). Our guests and wedding coordinator (yes, the man who works with hundreds of weddings a year) all asked where the cake came from; none of them could believe it was a traditional wedding cake with the amazing moistness, creamy and mouth-melting icing, and overall delectableness! As the plates were cleared away, there was not one crumb left. We are both so excited for our one year anniversary simply so we can have the topper all to ourselves =D. I truly can’t describe the deliciousness of Luscious and Sweet bakery except to say the name says it all. If you want the most beautiful and delicious wedding cake you could ever imagine, talk to the people at Luscious and Sweet; you WON’T be disappointed!

tate and had multiple meetings and skype sessions to ensure we were all on the same page with the menu and the day's events. Next, the venue is stunningly beautiful and ideal for those wanting ceremony and reception at one location. We had a lot of people from out of town so it was nice they only had to go to one spot. They had multiple options for ceremony location including outside in a lovely courtyard. They even had the flexibility to move the ceremony inside if the weather was bad - something we were fortunate not to need. They had a bridal and groom suite where you could chill as guests were arriving too which was cool and fun. Next, the staff was attentive and accommodating. Shout out to Carly and Lauren who were rockstars and kept everything on point and on time. Towards the end of the night, I asked the wait-staff for a coffee beverage with baileys and kahlua and the whipped it up in a moment. When other people in line got wind of what they did, they had to make a few more. From a price perspective, we thought they were good for what you receive - lots of things were included in our package and they were very flexible in moving things around as well (we moved an hor d'oeuvre to the end of the night for a late night snack - it was a hit!). They provided a cake, ice sculpture and champagne tower. They really made the main ballroom look gorgeous and followed our table design to a T. Happiest day of both the bride and groom. A must if you want a South Jersey wedding!

t us come in for a full tasting and were always very thorough and professional.

s incredible!! Everyone is still raving about how much food there was. Kristin and Lauren were great to work with and we can't thank them enough for making it such a fantastic day for us.

e party. The service was impeccable and they made sure everything went smoothly. A success for sure.

the beginning everyone was so nice, professional and have an amazing attention to detail. I was not stressed throughout the planning process because they took care of everything. Kristen Steelman and Lauren Olden were great and you can email them anytime with anything and they take get back to you very quickly. I would recommend The Carriage House to anyone and my wedding was better than I dreamed.

ouldn’t be happier. The Carriage House absolutely completed our wedding. I must say that I planned our wedding for two years because I wanted to be married at there. The staff is absolutely astonishing. They followed through with every little detail. They fluffed my dress right before I went down the aisle. They made sure I had water throughout the day. There was someone by my side to get my husband and me anything needed. They kept everything on schedule, worked closely with our vendors, and were so extraordinary. It was the most amazing experience. We are extremely pleased with our choice to have our wedding at the carriage house.

had all our wishes satisfied. The venue was gorgeous and the food was incredible. We thought we could never afford this kind of wedding and we were sirprised that it was affordable and the package included all the food,drinks, an ice sculpture and the cake. Our ceremony was outside and the team did a great job with decoration. We cannot say thank you enough for giving us our dream wedding in such short notice. You are the best of the best. To anyone looking for your wedding venue look no further the carriage house is the best. Mario & Marusya

EHIND SCHEDULE. BUT ALL IN ALL IF I COULD I WOULD GIVE THEM 1,000,000 STARS.

tastic job of making sure everything ran smoothly. I couldn't have imagined the day being any better and would definitely recommend it.

o we could have the bigger room and we could be the only event that day. They were always quick with getting back to me with all my questions. The Carriage House is amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to get married. There are a ton of awesome spots for pictures, the food was amazing and everyone kept telling how good the flow was, no waiting or not knowing where to go. There's not one bad thing I could say about them. I loved the venue and me wedding was awesome because of it.

a little nervous but they made me feel secure that my wedding would be as magical as I imagined it to be - and it was! They were so accommodating of all our decor requests and very flexible when it came time to plan our menu. Since we were planning the wedding from a distance of about 2 hours away, communication via email and phone were so important because we couldn't always just hop over there for a meeting and they never disappointed. Whenever were were able to meet at the venue, we always found it to be pristine; everything was very clean and polished and the grounds well maintained. Our wedding day exceeded all my expectations. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive to my guests and didn't appear to lose any energy even late into the night (we had an after party that lasted 1.5 hrs after the reception). The food was incredibly delicious! I know most brides eat very little at the reception - but I made sure I sat down and ate because I didn't want to miss out! From our initial meeting all the way through to the end, I couldn't have asked for better service or a more perfect night. Carly, our Sales Associate was enthusiastic, patient, organized, creative, and obviously passionate about her job. Kristin, the Director, helped turn many of my ideas into reality and oversaw the whole process with dedication, efficiency and an eagle eye while always keeping her sense of humor. I never doubted that I was in good hands - they made my dream wedding come true. Everything about my experience with The Carriage House exceeded my expectations!

got. We decided to change our venue to outside the day before our wedding and they had no problem changing everything. Every person at our wedding was absolutely taken back by the elegance of the whole set up. It was all breath taking and the food was amazing as well. Not one complaint from any of us for this venue. You get your money's worth and everything is so amazing!

ail come true. They worked so hard to assure that all our needs were met and that we would not have to worry about anything. They were so amazing with letting me do a lot of homemade things for our wedding and helping me to make all our dreams come true. From the food to the cake to the exceptional service we were more than pleased with it all! We received the most amazing compliments on everything! The best food and most beautiful wedding we could have ever dreamt of!

I saw it. Our guests were completely blown away by the venue. It is new, clean, modern and screams class. It was beautiful, the food was delicious, and everyone was so accomodating. Anything we requested, they made it happen. Kristin Steelman, Carly Wentz, and Kathy Betterton were awesome! Kathy makes her brides feel like celebrities and gives them the royal treatment the day of the wedding. If I had to do it all over again, I would still pick the Carriage House. Our guests are still raving about it all!

pointed!!!! We went to Luscious and Sweet after having a bad experience with a bakery that I had dealt with for years, who just flat out told us they could not and would not do a simple cupcake tier, after we ordered it and paid the deposit. I am very glad I did!!!! The head chef and her assistant met with me at the last minute and were very helpful. They were very nice and assured me they could give us whatever type of cake we wanted, even though the wedding was only a little over two weeks away!!!! They listened to our thoughts on what we wanted and made some really nice suggestions on ways to make the cake even more beautiful. The cake was gorgeous and tasted wonderful!!!! We were very pleased and I am so glad we chose them!!!! I will be using them for all my events in the future and recommending them to anyone else that might need their services. Thank you, Luscious and Sweet for turning what could have been a major wedding problem, into a very pleasant experience!!!!

tle bakery. Very professional, they gave a outstanding cake presentation with Kirstin. She was very professional and the pastry chef is beyond this world talented. I can't wait to stop by the bakery and try another of their delicious desserts.

buttercream frosting and chocolate creme filling. The frosting was the best I had ever tasted! We got married on the beach and wanted a beach-themed cake. I sent their head baker some pictures and was not disappointed on the day of! Our cake was exactly what we wanted and tasted so good! My only recommendation would be to undercut your guest count by at least 30 because we had so much extra cake, but for as good as it was it wasn't the worst thing! The day after our wedding we were in our rental house packing up and we decided to take a break and some bridesmaids, my parents, my new husband and I sat in the living room and ate some cake! It was still so moist and delicious even the day after. They were great, everything I expected!

inalize payment when the old pastry manager had left the company. So I was never called back, when I finally called they had first said they lost the order. They finally found it, but the price had changed and what was initially included was no longer included.

is new, contempory and beautiful. During the wedding Denise treated us like royalty. She took care of everything, made sure we ate and made sure not only we, but our families/bridal party, were happy at all times and always had a drink. From the minute we arrived and she greeted us at the door in such a calm manner we knew that we would have nothing to worry about. Guests raved about the suckling pig and macaroni, cheese bar and amazing desserts. Our only issue with the carriage house is that once the contract is signed they do not negotiate. Most places will throw in a few extras or cut you a break but the Carriage House did not. In fairness though their prices are very reasonable.

n't stop talking about! Kristin was so helpful through the whole wedding process, she always answered all of my questions quickly and she went out of her way to help make my dream wedding fit my budget. Denise is amazing--you definitely won't need to hire a wedding planner! She ran our entire wedding (ceremony and reception) seamlessly. I knew at my detail meeting that I had no reason to be nervous or feel stressed about anything. I can't thank her enough--or her amazing, dedicated wait staff. I am so excited to be attending someone else's wedding at the Carriage House this coming May so that my husband (!!!! : )) and I can enjoy from a different perspective!

nsure that we could get everything we wanted for our day and that we were comfortable with our contract. Denise (the woman who coordinates the reception) was FANTASTIC. Even my photographer (who's done tons of weddings) said Denise was the best she's ever worked with. I would highly recommend this facility for any occasion.

nd, and genuinely excited for me as well as getting my business. I had a list of five places to visit, but in my heart after the first stop (The Carriage House), I was sold. The event itself was such an amazing success - largely due to Denise's ability to run an evening as a true professional. The food tasting was perhaps my husband's favorite part- and the guests truly loved the food. We chose a buffet in the foyer because of the amount of tables to accommodate my 213 guests. Dinner was executed perfectly, and no beat was skipped. Our cocktail hour featured the mashed potato bar (total hit) and open bar. I found the prices at The Carriage House to be in line with other venues around, but the quality, service and value to be unparallel to the area. I'm sincerely grateful for the Staff and Management of The Carriage House for making my wedding so special. Every step of the way, either Kristin or Denise was able to answer any question or make suggestions for the event. I'd love to attend a wedding there sometime and get the guest experience, but take it from a Bride... it was the best!

nvinced this was the place. From that point on, I was only more and more impressed by the service, the great food, and the great lengths that the staff went to make my day perfect. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing. The Carriage House is the perfect venue to your big day!

ing all the way to the end of the reception. This truly is a first class facility with first class service. It looks beautiful, food was great, service was great. Our day was even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined, I would recommend The Carriage House to anyone!

e that while reviewing the contract upon signing, purchasing event insurance is completely up to the individual. It is not required. We did not purchase insurance for the venue and were perfectly fine. The wedding went on without a hitch and was the best day of both our lives. Thank you to all the Carriage House staff for making us feel so special during all of our Wedding planning! :)

esponsible for a person falling on the property, getting burnt by hot coffee, tripping on a stair or anything else. the insurance alone would have been hundreds of dollars extra for a menu that isn't that diverse! i got out of the contract before it was too late. that was the ONLY good thing about this place.
