Shannon is the BEST! She created our wedding cake for our February 2024 wedding and it was more beautiful than we could’ve imagined. From our imagination, it came to life in the most beautiful way. She is professional to work with, kind and understanding, and overall, her work speaks for itself! Our cake was several layers with three different flavors and icings that our whole wedding guest list could enjoy! It tasted amazing along with the beautiful outer look. We wouldn’t have wanted to go to anyone else, but Shannon! 1000/10
Over the years I’ve tasted a lot of cake and I can honestly say that Shannon’s cake is truly the best cake I’ve ever had! Shannon was also exceptionally helpful and easy to work with. We went into our cake tasting consultation not knowing exactly what kind of cake/filling we wanted or what we wanted our cake to look like. She had samples set up for us to taste and helped us put together the most perfect cake by asking us questions and going through inspiration photos. We were absolutely over the moon with our delicious and perfectly designed cake! I can’t recommend Shannon Bond more highly!
Shannon was the most incredible vendor to work with for our wedding. She was responsive to email, the tasting was fun and delicious, and we were left with no doubt that she would deliver a perfect cake for us. She exceeded our expectations with the design and flavors on the cake, and our guests loved it! She also offered several helpful logistical tips that we hadn't considered (how much weight the stand needs to hold, positioning the cake within our reception hall, etc). The most amazing part for us was getting a world class cake vendor for such a reasonable price. I cannot recommend Shannon Bond enough!
Cake was spectacular and tasted great. Even people who said they normally avoid wedding cake had seconds.
Shannon was amazing to work with for our wedding! When we went for our tasting, she gave us flavors we had not even thought of and they were wonderful. Her work is amazing and will definitely book her again for another event.
Shannon was super friendly and great to work with! The cake was exactly what we wanted and looked absolutely beautiful! The taste was spot on as well!
Shannon created a beautiful cake for my wedding. She was so warm and friendly. It made working with her a breeze. The hardest part was trying to decide which of her delicious cake flavors to choose. When it came to the design, she took my inspiration photo and adapted it to work for us. She was open to my design ideas and worked in the extra special details I requested. On my wedding day everyone wanted to take pictures of our cake because it was truly a work of art. It was better than what I envisioned. And forget needing to take home left over cake. Our guests ate every bite! I would recommend Shannon 100x!
Our tasting was the most informative meeting I had in planning my wedding, my husband had the time of his life trying all the flavoring Shannon had to offer that day. The flavors we chose that day were matched in the cake we eventually ordered. It was beautiful and exactly what I asked for. When our cake stand was problematic Shannon and her team took care of making sure our set up was still cute and rolled with the punches. I didn’t even know until after that a problem arose. Our guests LOVED the cake and found her shooters to be adorable and amazing. They were MUCH bigger than I expected and I fully feel like I got more than what I paid for! She also provides a “how to cut” cheat sheet and my wedding party was so grateful for that!
Shannon's cakes are the most delicious cakes I have ever tasted! I love that she offered fun flavors and allowed us to have more than one flavor in our cake! We went with vanilla (it's a classic), chocolate (I didn't even consider having chocolate until I tasted hers!), and snickerdoodle (biggest hit of the night)! A relative who claims they don't even like snickerdoodle cookies ended up eating 2 pieces of it! The designs she can do are just amazing, too. We ended up going with a more simple design, but she made even that look nice. For me, cake was one of the biggest priorities, because it's my favorite part of weddings. Shannon was the clear choice for me after tasting her cakes!
Every aspect of working with Shannon was impeccable. From the first phone encounter, ongoing timely communications and the beautiful set up for the cake testing. Shannon adds to this amazing customer service her personal special delivery of the wedding cake. Shannon did not make a cake for my daughter’s wedding she created a unique and exquisite work of art. The finished product was absolutely perfect and the different flavored layers were heavenly. Wedding guests continue to rave how our daughter’s cake was the best wedding cake ever!
Shannon was super easy to work with and did an amazing job!! We met beforehand to go over our vision for the cake and she made it come to life! It was exactly what we wanted and we absolutely loved it! It was also delicious and we have received many compliments on how beautiful our cake was and how great it tasted! She even provided an anniversary cake for us to store in the freezer until our first anniversary, which we are excited about! I would recommend Shannon Bond Cake Design in a heartbeat!
Shannon Bond Cake Designed nailed it! Shannon created a five layer, gold and azure blue Art Deco masterpiece that highlighted the center of our ballroom floor! It instantly caught the eyes of our guests, as it portrayed such artistry! I still am receiving compliments about my cake and am thrilled to have her create the most special cake of my husband’s and my lifetime. A big ‘thank you’ for your talent.
I cannot say enough great things about Shannon - she surpassed my every expectation and went beyond what would have been considered good customer service. I am so very happy I chose her for my wedding cake - she is a phenomenal artist and cake baker. Even 6 months later, I still have friends commenting on how amazing our cake was and how they wish they could have more right now!
The things dreams are made of! I found Shannon Bond on IG and couldn't wait to meet with her about our wedding cake. I was seriously stalking her account and just awed with every cake she posted. When we met with her, we knew we found our baker! She custom designed a cake for us that was elegant and delicious. It was front and center displayed on the dance floor and I cannot tell you how many people asked if it was real! Shannon is incredibly talented, professional and made us feel like we were her top priority (even though I know she had other weddings) we never felt rushed or like we were brushed off with any of the questions we asked - and I asked a lot of questions! She was a valuable resource for finding other vendors too. BUT do not listen to those guides which tell you you don't need to book your baker until 3-4 months before the wedding - BOOK Shannon, your venue, DJ and florist first!!
Nothing else like her in Kansas City! Shannon is professional, warm and extremely talented! We felt like we were the only cake that mattered every time we spoke with her. I love that she doesn't cram in as many cakes as possible so she can really make you feel special and spend more time on your cake. Book her NOW - you will not regret your decision!
Shannon is AMAZING!! Out of all my vendors, she was so responsive via email. She listened to what I wanted and made any changes when requested. She arrived early to display the cake. The cake..looked phenomenal. It was so simple but oh so elegant. Both the flavors was delicious and moist. The last thing you would want is a dry cake and her cake is not dry at all. I heard from guests they really liked the cake. She is really sweet too. Just stop looking and book Shannon for your wedding day.
Shannon was amazing to work with and we knew immediately that she would be the perfect choice for us! I paid the down payment before meeting her because I didn't want anyone else to snag our date before we could set up a meeting. We had already seen and tasted her cake at my cousin's wedding a year ago, so we knew it would be delicious and beautiful. Her style is everything we envisioned for own wedding and nothing like anyone else in Kansas City has to offer! She had a variety of different and amazing flavors. We chose four flavors because we couldn’t narrow it down to just one. We also loved how organized and detail oriented she was. She was prompt with responses and always very thorough with answering any questions or handling any revisions. We knew she was on the ball and we didn't have to worry about anything with our cake on our wedding day! Our wedding cake was everything we dreamed it could be. Shannon's the best and we couldn't be happier with our cake and all around experience!
Phenomenal baker and artist! I had a bit of a different experience with finding vendors as an out-of-town bride. Shannon made our cake easy with fantastic communication from setting up a first meeting until our wedding day. I never had to wait more than a day for a response from her, most of the time it was even less. She designed the cake of my dreams and used our reception table decorations in our cake. The sketch was beautiful but the real cake was just even more phenomenal and deliciousness! We chose chocolate cake with salted caramel butter cream and vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream. We ordered more than our guest count and am glad we did because there was not a single slice leftover - everyone loved the cake! You will not second guess your decision if you use Shannon Bond - she's professional and outstanding at what she does!
I wanted to share our experience to help others who are just starting to plan their wedding. Bottom line - do not go the cheap route! I tried to go the less expensive route and it came back to bite me not once but twice. First baker sudden;y quit and went out of business, second baker was refused by my venue because she didn't even have insurance! I guess that's why they were less expensive! I found Shannon Bond Cakes through Instagram and we set up our meeting. We loved every flavor we tried but decided on vanilla cake with salted caramel buttercream and lemon cake with strawberry buttercream for our spring wedding. It was amazing and so beautiful! Shannon made sugar flowers that no one believed were made from sugar - they were the talk of the evening and I still, 6 months later, have people commenting on how beautiful and delicious our cake was. I am SO glad we found Shannon and highly recommend her to everyone looking for a DELICIOUS and beautiful cake!
Our cake was beautiful and delicious! I really wanted a cake that tasted good and not just looked good. We arrived at our taasting with Shannon and were blown away and signed a contract THAT DAY to make sure we woudn't lose her to someone else! I walked into the ballroom for our first look and was again blown away with what I saw with my cake. We had so many compliments through the evening about our cake, it was perfect -people will definitely remember A Shannon Bond cake! ;) I'm so excited because my cousin is getting married in April and is using Shannon - I'm looking forward to more cake! :)
We could not have had a better experience with our wedding cake! Shannon was attentive, professional, prompt with replies and out of this world amazing! I took pictres to other bakers who were willing to recreate the pictures but Shannon was the only baker to create something custom pulling details I loved from my dress and our invitations. It tied the entire reception together in a way I could never have imagined! She's a true artist in every sense of the word. Thank you Shannon, for making our day so special and creating such a delicious, custom centerpiece! We LOVED our cake!
My original cake person did not work out and I was scrambling to find someone to do the cake for our wedding. Shannon was responsive, professional, kind, and oh my goodness the cake!!!! It was beautiful, absolutely delicious, and everyone enjoyed the flavors. She is a kind and genuine person who has an incredible talent for cake design and baking delightful treats. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
Our cake was so beautiful and delicious! Shannon is an artist! Amazing cake!
Shannon Bond Cake Design was incredible to work with. My husband had to work during our cake tasting and Shannon packaged up all of our tastings so he could try them too. It was very sweet of her and worked out very well. My husband and I had both wanted something different so we went with his favorite of Pumpkin Spice Cake with Salted Caramel Butter Cream and my favorite of Almond Cherry Cake with Almond Butter Cream.
We went with a Rustic Naked design with an edible flower. It was simple and beautiful. Shannon rented us a cake stand and came out to deliver the cake and set it up beautifully. We had zero cake left as everyone ate it up!
Best cake in KC!!!! Seriously, the best cake I have ever eaten and Shannon is really easy to communicate with and get a hold of - especially those crazy busy times before the wedding. So happy with our decision - you will be too if you choose Shannon!!!!
I'm an art major and really wanted a cake to reflect my style. When I found Shannon on Instagram, I knew without a doubt I had found our cake baker! We had a tasting and sealed the deal because not only was her design perfect, but the cake was delicious. We are SO happy we chose Shannon to make our cake and am excited to have her make my parents 50th anniversary cake in a few months!
I have never had another cake like it - it's the best cake ever! Thank you Shannon, for making our beautiful cake and being so awesome to work with!
We actually got married in the winter 2017 but I feel really bad for forgetting to write a review until now! Shannon made our delicious wedding cake and since then has made our baby shower and daughter's first birthday cakes. I will never have another cake in my life besides a Shannon Bond cake! She is extremely creative and every flavor we have tried is our new favorite. You just can't go wrong with anything on her menu!
The best decision we made for our wedding was choosing Shannon Bond to make our cake! We had some mishaps the day of our wedding and Shannon went out of her way to run errand for the florist and help set up tables when our coordinator went into premature labor. We can not say enough good things about Shannon and her husband, they were so kind and willing to help make our day possible. Not to mention the cake was amazing in every way! Thank you Shannon (and husband) you are an angel!!!
We loved our cake! Shannon took our inspiration and totally reworked it into a cake that was specifically designed for us! I guess that's the difference between just copying a pinterest board and getting something unique! If you want unique, you will not be disappointed with Shannon Bond!
One word - fabulous! That's it - fabulous cake, fabulous design, fabulous person. We loved working with Shannon for both our engagement cake and wedding cakes. We had her pumpkin cake with vanilla buttercream for our fall engagement party last year and chose her blueberry cake with lemon buttercream and chocolate cake with strawberry buttercream for our wedding cakes. She tool the vision that was locked in my head and knocked it out of the park with our cake, it was everything I hoped for and more! Thank you Shannon - we'll be back for an anniversary celebration cake soon! :)
We fell in love with Shannon the first time we met her and knew she was the one to create our wedding cake! Sh'e welcomed us into her home, very warm and inviting, professional and extremely talented. I'm not really a cake person, or at least I didn't think I was until I tried her cake samples! It was difficult to choose our flavors but went with vanilla cake with salted caramel buttercream and chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream. We are so happy with our decision - it was beautiful and delicious!
Shannon was responsive and wonderful to work with. Not only are her cakes works of art, but they are also very delicious. We requested a steampunk-themed cake, and she definitely delivered.
I cannot say enough fabulous things about Shannon Bond! The decision to have Shannon make our amazing wedding cake was easy, after meeting her and seeing her amazing cakes... and then once we had a tasting... decision was done! Her cakes are not only beautiful but delicious. All of our guests raved about the beauty and taste of our food cake! I would highly recommend Shannon Bond Cake Design!!
reckon
From the moment I came across Shannon’s designs online, I was blown away by her design aesthetic and originality! We scheduled a tasting and were blown away by how delicious the cake was. I had an idea in my mind about what kind of cake I wanted, but I really let her take the reins on the overall design, and it turned out beautifully. Our guest numbers fluctuated in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and she quickly adjusted the numbers and met our needs! Everyone kept commenting on how it was the best cake they’d ever had, and it looked beautiful in the center of our venue. She was wonderful to work with, and I was amazed we had any left over!
I was looking for a cake baker that would create a modern and elegant cake for our wedding. I came across Shannon Bond and really loved her cakes. My now husband and I scheduled a tasting with her, and she was such a pleasure! She has a great selection of cake and frosting flavors to mix and match, and she does some very creative design work! She sketched out our cake for us at the tasting and when wedding day arrived, it was even more beautiful than we were expecting. Also of importance, it was extremely delicious! We had more servings than guests, and almost the entire cake was devoured by the end of the night! I really love that she pre-boxes up your anniversary tier as well. That way you don't need to worry about saving the top tier. Our guests were so impressed with how beautiful the cake was. Shannon is great to work with and she is a true expert and sugar artist! You will not be disappointed if you choose Shannon Bond Cake Design. I will be recommending her to all my friends getting married! THANK YOU!
We were so happy with our amazing wedding cake! We highly recommend Shannon to anyone who wants a special cake that is beyond and above the every day ordinary!
I was looking for a wedding cake that our guests would actually enjoy eating. Shannon's style was beyond elegant, but I wondered if the taste would back it up, and boy did it. Here's how we rate our experience:
Professionalism: She was amazing to work with, patient, guiding, and was always motivated to get us what we actually need rather than up sell like others tried to.
Taste: Probably the best I've had, better yet, we got tons of compliments from guests, even my super picky mother in law loved it ;)
Delivery: Cake was delivered without a hitch, on time and my planner even complimented, she was impressed.
Design: Our cake could have been in a magazine, it was stunning and it was so perfectly done that we had to get up close to be sure it was real.
Step away Pinterest, Shannon showed you some tricks, haha.
overall, it was such a good value, not cheap, but every dollar was beyond well spent in quality. We will have our memories and amazing pictures to always remind us, but who would ever forget this. We recommended Shannon to all who have asked, and as we start a family will be coming back for birthday cakes and any other event we have. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Shannon, you beyond exceeded our expectations.
I have loved Shannon's cakes on Pinterest for years, and was so excited when her class came out on Craftsy! I learned so much, and was worth every penny I spent to take it! Wish she was closer to where I live, I would love to buy one of her cakes!! Recommend her to anyone!
Can’t say enough about this business and the lovely owner. All my initial and follow up questions and concerns were addressed and resolved to my complete satisfaction. My cake design was one of a kind and the taste was absolutely magical! I felt very special working with the baker. What a fantastic experience to take away as a customer! What more can you ask?! We will definitely be back and THANK YOU for all your hard work!
I'm a huge fan of everyting rustic but not yee-haw rustic and really wanted a naked cake. A few other vendors I talked with discouraged the idea and didn't really seem to understand my vision for my reception. I saw that Shannon had several naked cakes on her website, I loved the way they still looked so elegant and chic and knew she was the one to make my cake! We loved the fact that we got to have multiple flavors and the naked cake design was exactly like I had pictured. The cake was absolutely gorgeous and almost too pretty to eat. I loved the sugar flowers and berries wreath that Shannon hand made to perfectly accent the design as well! It was definitely "rustic chic" as she called it, she was able to take what was in my head and translate it perfectly!
I cannot say enough great things about Shannon and her business. She is very passionate about her cakes and really takes the time to listen to what her brides/grooms want! We never felt rushed, really felt like we were her sole focus. Not to mention, her cakes not only taste incredible but are the most amazing cakes I have ever seen in my life! Very happy we chose Shannon to make our cake!
Awesome! Our guests raved about the cake even asking if it was real because it was just that perfect! Shannon was great to work with and communication was always so fast! We wanted a cake that would be a centerpiece and not like every other cake we had seen and she did just that. She designed a cake especially for us, using my dress and part of the inspiration. The cake was delicious, I only wish I would have ordered more so that we would have had leftovers! You will love your Shannon Bond cake!
We were very pleased with our beautiful wedding cake! It was definitely a work of art. Our guests kept asking if it was fake because of how beautiful and perfect it looked!! Shannon really listened to our requests and made it happen. She was very easy to work with and responded very quickly when we had questions. The only reason I gave her 4 stars is because one of the flavors was not what I expected and I was a little disappointed in that one, but overall a perfect cake!! Your guests will rave about how great her cakes taste!
This woman is a saint!!! After my cake baker canceled on me six days before the wedding, Shannon and her team so graciously accepted to do our cake last minute. And it was BEAUTIFUL!! We asked for a marble looking cake and we actually had people ask us if it was even real because it looked like stone! And it tasted amazing! Highly, highly recommend.
Shannon was really creative and looking at her website instantly made us fall in love with her work. She drew us some gorgeous suggestions and we are so glad with the final result as it was really stunning and tasted amazing. I wanted to surprise the groom with a groom cake and sent over a picture of a 2D cake that I loved. She made it into the most amazing 3D cake that the groom didn’t realise at first it was a cake. I am so glad we chose her, she was really great with communication even with a 6 hour time difference and we would recommend her to anyone looking to be amazed with their wedding cake. We cant wait to have the anniversary cake which might not last long without being eaten.
From the minute we saw Shannon's cakes at Bridal Bash 2016, we knew we wanted to meet with her about designing our wedding cake. After sitting down and talking with her at our tasting, we were 100% sure. Excellent service from day one, personal touches that went way beyond what I was expecting and most of all, delicious cake that was a stunning centerpiece of our reception!
We loved every minute we worked with Shannon creating our wedding cake. From the lovely tasting, to the final product which was the absolute most stunning 5-tier cake I have ever seen, she is just fantastic. Delicious cake, beautiful design and a friendly, professional.
I met with many cake bakers before my wedding and ultimately chose Shannon Bond because I liked the look of her cakes the best. My cake was so perfect, people were asking if it was fake! Shannon is easy to work with and we had so many compliments on how the cake tasted at the reception. Definitely worth the price!

Five stars isn't enough to convey how happy we were with our cake! It was so beautiful, tasted amazing and we received so many compliments on the cake from our guests. Shannon Bond did a wonderful job with our wedding cake and I cannot say enough good things about her!
We met with Shannon for a tasting and showed her a few details we would like for our cake. We knew at that meeting, we wanted her to make our cake. It was hard choosing which flavor we wanted to go with because they were all so good. We finally settled on strawberry cake with lemon buttercream and buttermilk cake with salted caramel buttercream. We were very happy with how our cakes turned out, the wedding cake was gorgeous and the groom's cake was fun and perfectly fit my husband's personality. Shannon did a wonderful job of creating both cakes and we recommend her to all of our engaged friends and family for their wedding cakes.
Wonderful, delicious and stunning! Shannon created a beautiful centerpiece for our wedding reception that was equally as delicious! We chose lemon cake with strawberry butter cream - the best cake I have ever eaten! We all loved working with Shanon, she is making my sister's wedding cake next spring as well and I cannot WAIT to have another slice of Shannon Bond cake!
Beauitful and delicious! The centerpiece of our reception and the best cake in Kansas City! We had vanilla white cake with salted caramel butter cream and white chocolate raspberry cake with white chocolate butter cream. It was amazing and the look was 1000% more than what I could have dreamed! Thank you for our spectacular cake, Shannon!
The caption under 5 stars is "Wow! The best ever" and I couldn't think of any better words to describe Shannon Bond's cake! It was regal, beautiful and best of all, delicious! And a huge bonus, just a super nice person to work with. Made us feel comfortable and important, not just another order or paycheck. Shannon is the best and we couldn't be happier! (try her pumpkin cake -amazing!)
We had a wonderful experience with Shannon and highly recommend her to everyone! Her cakes are so yummy and her designs are one-of-a-kind. 5 stars!
Shannon's cake was spectacular! A centerpiece and highlight to our reception. We chose white chocolate raspberry cake with white chocolate buttercream and pumpkin spice cake with salted caramel buttercream. The BEST cake in Kansas City! If you are looking for a luxury cake there is no other choice but Shannon!
Amazing doesn't even describe it! I loved Shannon's cakes from the first time I saw them on instagram and stalked her until we had our date. I was praying she would be open and make our cake! It lived up to all my expectations and more! Thank you Shannon, for making our day so SWEET!
Shannon is AMAZING! We got married on June 18th and Shannon made our stunning wedding cake. From the very moment we sat down for cake tasting we were sold. The cake is absolutely delicious!! Shannon is professional, timely and has a heart of gold. Our wedding cake was a piece of art and the focal point of our reception. Her cakes are just unbelievable and I am so thankful she made our cake. A million thanks go out to Shannon!
Hands down the best cake creator and designer I have ever seen! She has done cakes for my kids and my nephews and I have been wow'd every time I see and taste a new creation. Not only do her cakes look incredible, but they taste even more amazing. Shannon has such a creative talent and pours her heart into her work and it shows. She is your best choice!!
Perfection! I am so thrilled with our wedding cake made by Shannon Bond Cake Design! It was gorgeous, delicious and even more than I hoped! Shannon Is great to work with, I didn't really know exactly what I wanted and she was able to take the very few ideas I had and turn them into a beautiful cake! It was the showpiece of our reception and I cannot wait to eat another piece on our anniversary!
Perfect and delicious! The most beautiful design sketched out just for our wedding. I love that my cake was just as personalized as my dress and flowers and centerpieces. So glad we found Shannon, she was great to work with and the cake was amazing!
If you are looking for something really special - you have GOT to go to Shannon Bond! We had a wonderful experience from the first time we met her. I feel like I'm going to repeat a lot of the reviews I read about Shannon, but it's all true! The cake was amazing, so delicious ( I could eat my weight in her salted caramel buttercream) and a stunning centerpiece, it really was the highlight of our reception decor! I am SO happy with our Shannon Bond Cake Design original!
Wonderful in every way! Easy to work with, detailed and professional, the best cake I have ever tasted and the most beautiful design I have ever seen. So thankful to Shannon Bond Cake Design for making my dream cake!
Simply amazing! Shannon Bond Cake Design took my breath away with the design of our cake! We had the Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Cake with Vanilla Butter cream, so delicious! We had an all butter cream cake design and people couldn't believe it wasn't fondant. It was so beautiful and flawless, I would have been fooled too if we didn't see the flecks of vanilla beans when we were cutting the cake! Thank you so much! Brides-to-be and friends - highly recommend this talented gal, you will not be disappointed!
Perfect from the first meeting to the last bite! We chose chocolate cake with salted caramel buttercream - amazing and so incredibly beautiful. Thank you Shannon, for helping to make our day so special!
We had a wonderful experience with Shannon Bond Cake Design. I only have good things to say about the entire process from our first email to the scheduled tasting and our beautiful cake on our wedding day. Professional, prompt returning emails and friendly. The cake was beautiful and so delicious. We chose the Cherry Almond cake with Almond butter cream, everyone loved the cake, even my MOH who doesn't like cake had 2 slices! The best cake in Kansas City!
I saw Shannon Bond Cake Design's cake in Cake Master's magazine when I was in Australia and couldn't believe it when I saw she was based in Kansas City! I fell in love with the look. Then we tasted her cakes and fell in LOVE with the taste. OMG - best cake ever and I am not exaggerating! Shannon was hands down my favorite vendor from our wedding. Professional but the sweetest person you'll ever meet. We had awesome communication, which wasn't the case with all our vendors. I would have licked my plate had we not had 250 people watching! I loved that she limits her orders to focus on the details of the one wedding and it shows. Shannon Bond Cake Design was amazing, everything I had hoped for and more!!
We tried a few other bakers but they were so ordinary. The cakes we had tasted were bland and they all looked exactly the same. I was feeling pretty discouraged about the entire process when I saw one of Shannon's cakes online and knew I had finally found the person to make my wedding cake! But I was scared the taste would be lacking so we scheduled a tasting. She is put us at ease immediately, she uses fresh, natural ingredients (which is important to us) and wow - the difference in taste was amazing! The hardest part was deciding which flavor to choose! She was so helpful with designing our cake, she really has an eye for art and it shows with her style. We provided her with details before our meeting and she had some sketches worked up, we made a few small changes and settled on a design that day. I went home and dreamed about cake that night! I loved the idea that I could have something totally custom designed to fit our venue and style. I am so thankful we chose Shannon Bond Cake Design for our wedding day. She was so professional and easy to work with, emails were answered super fast, the cakes were delicious and out of this world beautiful! I walked into our reception and my jaw hit the floor. Even the staff at our venue could not stop raving about the cake - and they have seen a lot of cakes! We got nothing but amazing comliments about the taste and I am still getting requests for our baker. There are some vendors I would like to go back and re-choose, but I would choose Shannon every time and will be using her for every cake from now on!
this was a wonderful experience. From the cake tasting gathering to the finished awesome cake. Thank you Shannon
Shannon Bond Cake Design is the best. Her designs are stunningly imaginitive and gorgeous to look at. In addition, the cake tasted great! I recommended her to the highest degree.
Shannon Bond Cake Design has amazing flavor variety and her design ideas are superb! She never ceases to amaze me! I'm always looking forward to see what her next design will be! Her quality of cake is definitely what you want on your special day!
I saw Shannon's cakes on instagram and knew I HAD to have her make our wedding cake! I have never seen anything like her designs - modern but romantic and elegant at the same time - just our style! We had the Blueberry Sour Cream cake with Lemon buttercream for our wedding cake - to die for! We had people tell us throughout the reception it was not only the most stunning cake they had seen, but the best tasting. I agree! We also had a groom's cake made, we chose the Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin cake and sugared pecans. It was so good, we ate our anniversary tier on our wedding night! I cannot recommend Shannon highly enough. She is the sweetest person to deal with, very organized and professional and her creativity with designs is just mind blowing. Kansas City's hidden treasure - I'm so glad she has started advertising on The Knot so more people will know about her. She only does a few cakes a week, I really felt like my wedding was important to her, not just another check in the bank and cake number on the counter for the weekend. That was important to me, I could not be happier with my choice! Thank you Shannon Bond Cake Design for making our wedding cake such a beautiful centerpiece of our reception!
Shannon Bond's cakes are a work of art. I am so happy I chose her to make my wedding cake. It was the highlight of my reception. I chose a spice cake with a salted caramel buttercream which was a delicious combination. The cake was very moist and even the fondant tasted good. I went to Shannon originally wanting a lace design on my cake. She showed me all her ideas for adding other elements to my cake such as petals and pearls which made it even prettier than the cake I had in mind. When I first saw it, it took my breath away. It was absolutely perfect.
