Debbie and her team are creative, genuine, and extremely accommodating! I requested a gluten free wedding cake and Debbie created the most divine delicious cake imaginable. Our cake was a gluten free cheesecake bottom with chiffon lemon curd and raspberry cake on top. During the... Read More wedding, we were laughing feeding it to each because it was so good! Working with Debbie was not only fun but an honor and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent wedding cake vendor!

Debbie was absolutely amazing to work with. From start to finish she immediately made my husband and I feel so comfortable.

Consider Not Just Cheesecakes for your Wedding!
Reviewed on 5/26/2012 Beth GI got married in early May 2012 and shopped around a LOT for a great artist to do our wedding cake. We literally went to about a dozen cake tastings in the bay area before choosing Debbie and Not Just Cheesecakes. Why did we choose this vendor? Debbie makes wonderful... Read More cheesecakes! Honestly, my husband and I love cheesecake, and it was great to have a non-traditional choice for our wedding day. Her regular cake was pretty tasty as well, but the cheesecake got us hooked. Our cake consisted of three tiers to feed about 40 people. The bottom tier was a lemon mousse cheesecake filled with raspberries, and the top two tiers were chocolate hazelnut cheesecake filled with a hazelnut ganache. Amazing! The cake was iced in an ivory fondant with a green leaf pattern. Debbie delivered the cake to our wedding venue, Tarragon Restaurant, in Sunnyvale. Another thing we loved about Not Just Cheesecakes was that the price was very affordable. (Now, keep in mind that this is the wedding industry.) But Debbie gave us a lovely 3-tier wedding cake for less than most vendors would give us a measly 2-tier cake. She also threw in a wooden cake stand for free. And for a very small fee, Debbie provided two mini-cheesecakes for our gluten free and diabetic guests. I promise you, EVERYONE enjoyed the cake. We had to stop the best man from trying to take half-eaten guest pieces home with him. The only drawback to working with Debbie was being able to get in touch with her. She only checks her messages periodically throughout the week. However, if you ask her for her email address, she is more responsive that way. Overall, we really enjoyed working with Debbie and loved our cheesecake wedding cake. We even brought a portion of it with us on our honeymoon. ;)
Amazing
Reviewed on 10/08/2011 Emily MDebbie is amazing and the cakes she makes are magical. She is super friendly and she is so professional that I didn't even have to worry about my cake (believe me, you don't want to have to worry about your vendors). On the day of the wedding, I saw the cake and my husband and I... Read More were awe struck. It was more beautiful than I had ever imagined. She is a talent and an artist and I'd recommend her to anyone who wants a unique, lovely, and magical wedding cake.
delicious and friendly
Reviewed on 10/06/2011 Karen WI got Debbie's information from a friend from high school who got married a few years ago. She is a family friend of Debbie's, so I trusted my friend. Debbie is super friendly and easy to work with, produced a fantastically gorgeous cake (and helped me figure out what design I... Read More wanted) and it was delicious. We ordered a half-chocolate-half-new york style cheesecake for 40.
