Cake is Edible Art! Beautiful and Tasty!
Palmieri’s Cakes absolutely blew us away. From our very first tasting to the final product on our wedding day, everything was perfect. Rachel was so easy to work with, incredibly responsive, and very kind.
Our wedding cake and deserts were not only gorgeous, but also tasted incredible (I still dream about her cupcakes). The design was exactly what we envisioned (actually, better), with so much attention to detail in every layer and decoration. You can tell Rachel puts real care and artistry into their work. We’re so grateful to Palmieri’s Cakes for making something so special for our day. If you want a bakery that delivers stunning designs, amazing flavor, and genuinely wonderful service, we couldn’t recommend them more.

We loved working with Rachel at Palmieri’s Cakes for our wedding! We decided somewhat last minute that we wanted a cake, and she was so flexible and accommodating throughout the process. She has the best flavor selections and was so easy to work with... truly a delight from start to finish.
And the cake itself? Absolutely delicious! We got compliments left and right from guests about how amazing it was. It looked beautiful and tasted even better. I hope I have more events in the future to work with Rachel again. 10/10, highly recommend!

Cake brings people together and a smile to their faces; that is what I fell in love with at age 14. I received a Certificate in Culinary Arts and a Degree in Baking & Pastry Arts. I worked through school and 7 years after graduation as a Pastry Chef and Wedding/Specialty Cake Decorator, where I formed my love for wedding cakes. I have created over 300 wedding cakes throughout my career. I opened my own Bakery in October of 2022 where I could start to create customized flavors and designs for each couple. I love seeing the joy on the couples faces when they see their vision come to life.

esserts. I felt so proud to show off our beautiful wedding cake and I was sad to have to cut into it in the end. Her red velvet / toasted vanilla cream combination was to die for.

Still waiting on photos from our photographer, but I cannot wait to share Rachel's work. She executed our design ideas perfectly. Highly recommend!!

easy to work with. We ordered a small cutting cake for our reception, and she executed our vision perfectly. Not to mention, the cake was so delicious, we went with vanilla with a whipped lemon curd filling and Italian buttercream--such a great combo. We had such a hard time picking a flavor because they all were so good!

en that we had to come from out of state she was super accommodating schedule wise. I didn't know much about how we would handle a cutting cake vs serving cakes but she explained everything SO well and basically just told us exactly how to sort it once we decided on flavors (we did 3!!). Her Italian buttercream frosting is to die for - just the slightest bit sweet exactly the way we like it. But the star of the show was our cutting cake which was lemon, with whipped cream filling. This cake was literally mind blowing, moist and light and refreshing and just perfect in every way. If I had known everyone would love it as much as we do, maybe I wouldn't have offered a plain option of vanilla with buttercream as well but all of our flavors turned out delicious!! Rachel made the process of splitting flavors and doing the small cutting cake plus serving cakes super super easy and the decoration of our cutting cake was beautiful and just what I wanted. I can't recommend her enough. We aren't freezing any of our cake leftovers but I have a feeling any time we drive through CT we will try to get an order placed of that lemon with whipped cream and reminisce the deliciousness of our wedding cake!!

re I found Rachel, all of them telling me they couldn’t do what I wanted for my cookie seating chart. When I asked Rachel she didn’t even blink! We got right into schedule a tasting for the cakes and designing both the cakes and cookies. These were a HIT with my guests! They were so cute no one wanted to eat them. However, who can resist a cookie? While most sugar cookies like this are hard, these were perfectly soft and delicious! I went back and forth with Rachel a few times to make tweaks and she was always on board and able to help. My vision I thought wouldn’t be possible came to life because of her! So so happy we found her, she is so nice to work with!!

ou the cake was AMAZING. I mean the cake was AMAZING. The fondant was light and fluffy. The strawberry filling was perfect. Everyone at the party raved about the cake and how wonderful it was. I had a 3 tier cake and very little was left at the end of the night. What really sealed the deal for me was the picture of the cake I sent her was very detailed. So I was prepared for a similar cake seeing as how she was not the original designer of the cake. When I seen the cake, I was floored. She knocked it out of the park. She even went online and found the exact princess and the frog cake toppers that I wanted. Also her response time to my calls/ text were answered in a timely fashion. I can not say enough about this bakery. You have to buy a cake just to experience what I am trying to relay to you. Trust me you will not be disappointed. Oh, and the price is very affordable. Once you see and taste the cake you will say one of two things. Either “this is worth every penny or man I would have paid more.” Rachel’s cakes are amazing. Definitely a bakery that you should visit.

Rachel is THE BEST! She did all of our desserts at our wedding and our wedding cake! She was extremely professional and easy to reach throughout our entire wedding planning. When d...
eciding on what exact desserts we wanted at our wedding, Rachel provided us with examples and plenty of options that we never even imagined. Many of our guests STILL rave about our dessert spread even a year later. Outside of our wedding she has designed cakes, and other desserts for family parties each time exceeding our expectations. I cannot speak highly enough of Rachel and her creations. She is personable, friendly, and has extreme attention to detail. You will not be disappointed! I HIGHLY recommend her for any of your dessert needs.

I contacted Rachel about doing a small one tier with lots of cupcakes and she did absolutely amazing! Not only was she quick to respond, she reached out to me throughout that time ...
to make sure we were always on the same page. She gave us several different flavors and included a gluten free/vegan option for several guests at our wedding too. Day of wedding was smooth and easy and the carrot wedding cake (and others) were truly to die for!

upcakes, cannolis, custom cookies, pudding cups, cake pops). She was easy to work with and wonderful! I would recommend trusting her with any and all of your dessert needs.

Rachel made our wedding cake for us back before she officially opened Palmieri’s Cakes by Rachel. Everyone always says “wedding cakes are pretty but they don’t taste that great,” w...
ell let me tell you, Rachel’s cakes are delicious! In my option that’s something that truly sets her wedding cakes apart from others. She can make up any flavor you dream of and it’s delicious she really makes your vision come to life. I sat with her more than once to discuss design for our cake because we wanted something a bit more extravagant than your typical white 3 tier cake and Rachel really did make our vision a reality. Our cake was three different flavors and 6 tiers high and absolutely beautiful. It was also delicious everyone still raves about how good it was, our favorite flavor is almond raspberry, SO good! Rachel also did the desserts for my bridal shower and our rehearsal dinner, beautiful spreads of cupcakes, cookies, cake pops, and little dessert cups. Her chocolate almond mousse was a favorite at my shower. Rachel was wonderful to work and my husband and I highly recommend her for all your wedding dessert needs!
