Delicious and Beautiful cake from Marianne for my daughter’s wedding! She was a pleasure to work with and designed the cake to complement the beading on the wedding gown. Cannot re...
commend her enough!!
Marianne Tayloe delivered an absolutely exceptional dessert experience for our wedding weekend, and we are beyond grateful for her talent, care, and attention to detail.
The rehea...
rsal dinner cake was truly unforgettable. We adored the stunning two-tiered design, finished with the most beautiful, smooth buttercream frosting. Each layer was thoughtfully crafted and bursting with flavor. The top tier—a light, citrus cake with cream cheese buttercream and raspberry preserves—was perfectly balanced, refreshing, and just the right amount of sweet and tangy. The bottom tier—an almond cake with hazelnut buttercream and rich chocolate ganache—was indulgent, decadent, and completely irresistible! Together, the flavors created a sophisticated and memorable dessert that our guests are still talking about.
And the magic didn’t stop there. The desserts on our wedding day were just as incredible. The cannolis were an absolute standout—crispy, creamy, and utterly delicious. Our guests couldn’t get enough of them, and neither could we! The white chocolate covered pretzels were another huge hit, offering the perfect blend of sweet and salty that everyone loved.
Marianne’s dedication and effort truly shone through in every detail. Not only were her desserts beautiful and expertly made, but they also added such a special and personal touch to our entire celebration. She played a huge part in making our wedding weekend feel complete—and delicious in every possible way.
We are so incredibly thankful and would recommend Marianne Tayloe to anyone looking for high-quality, unforgettable desserts for their special event! We can’t wait to work with her for future events! Marianne, thank you for everything you have done for us!

We were absolutely thrilled with our wedding cake from Marianne! From the very first tasting, we knew we were in great hands—the flavors were incredible, and she made the whole exp...
erience so enjoyable. She really listened to what we wanted and brought our cake vision to life with absolute perfection.
The final cake was stunning and exactly what we had hoped for, and the flavors were even better on the big day. The citrus layer was light, airy, and refreshing, while the chocolate was the perfect balance—not too dense or overly sweet. Our friends and family couldn’t stop talking about how delicious it was! We cannot wait to try our anniversary tier next year!
If you’re looking for someone who is talented, attentive, and genuinely passionate about her craft, Marianne is the one. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend her!
Marianne absolutely stole the show with our cake. She helped narrow down the impeccable design and brought it to life as our vision developed across the full day. Not only was the ...
cake our centerpiece upon entering the wedding venue, but it was one of the most talked about parts of the night. Every single slice was eaten and our guests raved at the variety of choices - citrus, chocolate and almond (even had it dairy-free). You will not be disappointed with her cakes as it will be a wedding cake you want to go back for seconds (or even thirds) on!
Marianne is amazing!!!! Not only did our cakes look amazing but they tasted amazing too!!! So many people came up and told us they loved our grooms cake!!!
The best wedding cake I've ever had! My guests raved about the cake - so many people grabbed seconds. Marianne is fantastic at what she does and was very easy to work with.
Marianne did an amazing job with our cake, cupcakes and cookies. Actually kicking myself for not getting more cookies as they were bigger hit than the cupcakes.
Cannot recommended Marianne enough! She will take whatever idea you have and make the most stunning and tasty cake! Highly recommend!!!
