The Wedding came and Groom's cake were spot on. They were exactly like the photos we gave for inspiration. Everyone must have loved them because we had no leftovers. Red Velvet and Italian Cream Cheese where our flavor choices. Everything was freshly made and you can definitely taste it in their cakes. They genuinely love what they do and it shows.

The tasting was great, and the owner was very helpful with picking out cake styles! Leading up to the wedding the wedding cake baker was very communicative and made sure my vision for my cake was seen such as double checking flavors and cake colors for the piped flowers. The day of the cake was beautiful and delicious! I had so many compliments from guest, and they had the opportunity to bring extra home as an extra gift!

We cannot wait to see our wedding cake on our big day in October!! My fiancé and I, along with my mom, went to a cake testing and were shocked at the level of care Mrs. Marguerite ...

has for her customers. My fiancé is not a cake person so when he brought up the idea of a cookie cake, she immediately asked the baker to put some chocolate chip cookies in the oven for us to try. Needless to say, he was hooked and loved all of the cake flavors that we tried. Mrs. Marguerite is a genuine business owner who will go above and beyond to make her customers happy. She answered all of our questions and entertained all of our ideas. If you’re still looking for a cake baker, go visit Marguerite’s because you won’t be disappointed!

Marguerites approaches her craft with professionalism and clear experience. The tasting was AWESOME as they custom bake essentially mini wedding cakes of each flavor for sampling. ...

They also gave great input to help my vision for our cake come to life while keeping quality and best taste possible. They worked with us to give each tier a different flavor so we could still have wedding cake flavor for our guests but also an alternative since the Grooms not a big fan of almond (he LOVED their red velvet the most out of everywhere we tried). Marguerites suggestions just amazingly showed her experience in this department and made us feel comfortable and confident in top of the excellent tasting experience. We got called a couple times before the wedding to ensure every detail was correct, which I really appreciated and showed excellent communication. We actually had a friend pick ours up, and she reported ease of working with them to keep the cake well put together. It turned out beautiful, and everyone enjoyed the flavors a lot! We actually almost ran out despite over-ordering due to a lot of last minute cancellations from our wedding guests- that's just how tasty it was. Excited for our free anniversary cake to enjoy again!

ied a wide array of flavors but decided on a 2-tiered wedding cake, one tier with chocolate and the other with vanilla, I also ordered 50 cupcakes. I had a unique request and wanted rainbow frosting. Other bakeries gave me so much difficulty about needing a creative wedding cake, but Marguerite's didn't even hesitate and also quoted a great price for all of it. Their portfolio of creative cakes was astounding. Everyone at my wedding said that it was the most beautiful cake they had every seen. When it came out the whole crowd gasped. The Chocolate cake with the chocolate ganache was the best I ever tasted. I had so many of guest get Marguerite's contact number because they also had trouble finding someone to do great creative cakes. Marguerite's bakery will be the only bakery I will order from or recommend to people from now on because my wedding experience with them was that exceptional.

The cakes were freshly made, and the different flavors we chose were superb. Brandi, our decorator touched base with me multiple times to make sure I got what I wanted. She is a true artist and has mastered her craft. If anyone is considering Marguerite for their wedding cake, do not hesitate. They will make your dream come true too.

Regardless of this, they devoted their time to narrowing down our options and working tirelessly to ensure we found what we wanted. They took care of us like we were family and made sure that we had everything we needed. The cake was absolutely delicious and pristine in appearance as well as performance. Every guest loved the presentation and taste, even those who claimed not to like a certain flavor. It is without a doubt made with love and passion for their profession, and they have my full support and admiration. Thank you for being a part of our celebration and many more events with your delectable cakes and pastries!

such a breath of fresh air. My mom lives locally but my husband and I live in Texas. Having her meet with us was such an honor! The cakes provided were so good. My brother even complimented them and he doesn't really care for wedding cakes because of the icing. He ATE IT ALL. 😊 My cake was 4 tiers of perfection. Brandy was a doll in communication and keeping in contact with me to ensure my satisfaction with everything. This was my first time tasting their goodies. I have returned to pick up King Cakes and have definitely recommended them to other family members.

to find a vendor who would make something delicious or else she would never let me live it down. Also, my then-fiance, now-husband had one major request during the wedding planning and that was a stadium cake for his favorite football team (and he had so many ideas about coloring, icing, flavors etc.) that I was worried he was going to be let down. When I tell you this bakery delivered, they really delivered! He was so impressed at the artistry, flavor, and how it photographed he didn't want to cut it at the reception. (We did, and it was delicious!) These people really know what they are doing and they have great customer service and were able to put our minds at ease throughout the planning process. Mrs. Marguerite and her staff really put love in every cake they make which is why she only does a few wedding cakes a year - to make sure each couple gets exactly what they want. I'm telling you, go to one of her cake tastings and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed. Definitely will be using her services in the future!
