McKiddy Cakes did an absolutely amazing job for our wedding! From start to finish, she was so easy to work with, had great communication, and truly brought our vision to life. She followed our inspiration perfectly and gave us exactly what we had pictured.
Above all, every dessert was so yummy and delicious! Our guests gave us so many compliments on the desserts, and everything looked just as beautiful as it tasted. She also set everything up perfectly, which made the day feel even more seamless.
I knew I could fully trust her, and she exceeded our expectations. One of our favorite parts of the planning process was the monthly dessert tastings leading up to the wedding. It was such a fun touch and made for the best little date nights while getting us excited for the big day.
We are so happy we chose McKiddy Cakes and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, delicious desserts and an amazing wedding vendor experience!

Jessica McKiddy
Owner
My name is Jessica McKiddy and I am the owner and baker here at McKiddy Cakes. I have been baking for over 28 years, primarily as a hobby, but decided to turn my passion into a business in June of 2016. It was then that my “something more” was realized and I decided to take a very scary, yet very exciting step towards my future and become a Licensed Ohio Home Bakery. I share my journey with you to let you know just how personal this business is to not only myself, but my family, and to ensure you that we take every order very seriously!

n making everything perfect for our big day.
We ordered a small cutting cake along with mini cupcakes, and not only was everything beautifully set up, it was beyond delicious. The display looked stunning and fit our reception perfectly. Guests could not stop raving about how good everything tasted!
One of the sweetest touches was that she left to-go boxes so our family and friends could take extras home, everyone was thrilled. It was such a thoughtful detail and truly appreciated.
I’m also so excited that she offers so much more than wedding cakes because we will absolutely be returning for future events and celebrations. If you’re looking for incredible desserts and someone wonderful to work with, I cannot recommend McKiddy Cakes enough!

Jess was fantastic to work with. From consult, through email, and all the way to wedding day. She was quick with email responses, the mini-cupcake tastings were a highlight of our ...
planning, and every guest was in love with the cupcakes. When we told her our wedding colors (rainbow) she went above and beyond to match that, and the ability to rent stands/signs was very helpful. You can taste the quality and the passion McKiddy Cakes puts into their work and we are so happy we had left overs to take home!

We used McKiddy Cakes for our wedding and everything worked out perfect! The mini cupcakes were the perfect choice for us and it was reasonably priced. I believe she had 3/4 other ...
events to do the same day as our wedding and I (the bride) was not contacted a single time during the day, which I greatly appreciated. She worked seamlessly with our venue to set up and the desserts table was beautiful! The cupcakes were also SO tasty. She also set aside a flavor of each for us to take home, which I thought was so thoughtful since our day was so busy. I woudl highly recommend Mckiddy Cakes for any future events for desserts.

re. The cake and frosting was amazing and every flavor we tried was incredible. She did an excellent job of helping us choose the number of cupcakes we would need for our wedding size. On the day of our wedding she was there on time and set up our dessert table beautifully. Everything was exactly as we envisioned. She is extremely organized, cheery, and helped ease coordinating the cake on our big day. We used her cake stands the day of the wedding and they were beautiful. Truly an expert in her field, I would hire McKiddy cakes again!

has an AMAZING frosting, and a plethora of flavors to choose from!!! We were BEYOND impressed with how our display turned out. The cake and cupcakes were a huge hit!! Every single one was eaten!! We did have a small communication hiccup (my fault), but she made sure everything was correct, contracts were signed, quantities were finalized, and made a beautiful display for us. I absolutely LOVE supporting small, local, businesses. You can tell she pours her heart into her business and has a true passion for baking.

lute favorite was her strawberry cake. We showed her our Pinterest ideas for our cake and she brought it to life perfectly and worked with our florist so that real flowers could decorate the cake as well. We also had a sweets bar with treats made by her. Our guests devoured them before we even had a chance to so I'd say that they were very popular! (And we know they were scrumptious from our own tastings prior!)

o show us for example that we could get a better idea of sizes and what we were looking for. Out of all of the different bakeries we taste tested we felt that hers was the most flavorful and we loved that she used natural ingredients and made her baked goods from scratch. We ended up getting cupcakes and a small wedding cake and we love the different flavors she offered for the cupcakes. Each one was unique and our guests love them. We would definitely recommend her services for cakes and cookies!
