I could not recommend Simply Cakes enough!! Sabrina is so talented and easy to work with! We didn't have to worry about anything - everything with her was so seamless! Our guests R...
AVED about our cake all night! The sweet potato flavor was our absolute favorite, and our friends/family agreed. We already can't wait to eat our top tier next year!
Sabrina was wonderful to work with throughout the wedding planning process! Her cakes are absolutely delicious. We ended up deciding on chocolate, almond, and sweet potato tiers - ...
all were a huge hit at the wedding. Sabrina was easy to communicate with and made sure to check in prior to the wedding to ease our minds about the delivery process.
Simply Cakes baked our cake and cupcakes for our wedding on 05/11/19. We couldn’t have been happier! Sabrina was easy to work with, reasonably priced, and everything turned our bea...
utifully. We received so many compliments on the cupcakes – especially the sweet potato!
The cake was super yummy but it didn’t have nearly enough of the flowers I asked for in the design so I was pretty bummed...we were also promised a one year cake freshly made in ou...
r contract and now the business may be closing which was not disclosed to us at the final meeting so we have to freeze a part of our cake which will not be good in a year because it’s fresh fruit inside...a bit disappointed
Simply Cakes created the most beautiful and delicious, yet simple, cake for our wedding! We wanted something small to cut, as we gave out mini cupcakes for dessert. Our 8", one-lay...
er cake was BEAUTIFUL and SO DAMN DELICIOUS! We got the sweet potato cake with buttercream frosting. I am SO SO glad that we have a lot saved in our freezer, cause we devoured about 1/4 of the cake the day after the wedding. Couldn't recommend them any more!!
Sabrina was so nice to work with. The initial tasting was yummy, and we got to try so many flavors. She had great suggestions for the design, and the end result was exactly what ...
we wanted!
Sabrina was outstanding. The taste test featured a good selection of available flavors. When we returned for the design consult we got new flavor tests. I highly recommend the s...
weet potato, it's fantastic! She worked well with the florist to put fresh flowers on our cake and everyone raved about how good it looked and how good it tasted.
Sabrina and Simply Cakes delivered the best cake. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the cake was and our wedding was 6 weeks ago. We were so incredibly happy with ...
our choice and would hire Sabrina for anything in the future! Loved it!
Simply Cakes did an amazing job on my wedding cake! Sabrina was incredible to work with and did exactly what we had talked about, as well as brought my vision of my cake to life. I...
t was beautiful and the flavors were so yummy, highly recommend Simply Cakes!
Simply Cakes is amazingly creative and delicious! This was our first stop when booking tastings for a wedding cake, needless to say nobody else compared! Simply Cakes created a gro...
oms cake that was unique and so life like. They created a Yeti Cooler with Miller Lite Beer cans scattered around base that my husband LOVED. Many of our guests had no idea it was a cake, they thought it was a real cooler. The flavor of the cake was as delicious as the design. They also designed four individual Cakes, instead of just one wedding cake for us! Each cake was decorated differently and were flavors unlike any we had seen at any other bakery. The cake table was elegantly displayed at the reception and a focal point with Simply Cakes unique design. Thank you so very much!
Simply Cakes made my husband's grooms cake, and he/we were super pleased with it! Not only was it super delicious, but my husband loooves Harry Potter and they did an incredible jo...

zing flavors! My parents and I enjoyed the tasting so much and we knew right away this was our place! Everything from the initial tasting, emailing details, and the final product on the big day went perfectly! Thank you for making my big day that much sweeter!
The cake was one of the things about our wedding that I was most excited about, and after interviewing three other cake companies, we knew right away at the tasting we did with Sim...
ply Cakes that we'd found our cake maker. I knew that I wanted a cake that captured my creativity and embodied something that resonated with both my husband-to-be and myself. Plus, we wanted one that not only looked amazing but also tasted fantastic, and Simply Cakes did not disappoint on either front! We decided we wanted a modern-style geode cake to match our geode-themed decor, and the cake was everything we'd hoped and more! The owner, Sabrina, was so great to work with throughout the entire process, responding to emails promptly and working with us as we tweaked and finalized our cake concept. We loved that we were able to select multiple flavors for different tiers (we opted for some coconut, and some lemon – perfect for our summer wedding). The cake was absolutely stunning, and everyone raved about how delicious it was! We loved every detail of the cake. Thank you Sabrina and team for your attention to detail, excellent customer service, and of course, for creating a delectable and beautiful cake for our big day!
Wow, this cake was DELICIOUS and BEAUTIFUL! We tried out a few different bakeries and some had delicious cake with mediocre decorations and others were beautiful cakes with iffy ta...
stings. I was starting to get nervous when finally we found Simply Cakes. Sabrina was fantastic to work with and the cake was DELICIOUS. I'm so sad we couldn't take the leftovers on the plane back to Texas with us after but my sister took it and had the rest finished with her family within a week because it was so good!
Working with Simply Cakes was so easy. I went into the tasting completely unsure of what I wanted for my wedding cake, and came out feeling really good about it. All the flavors of...
cakes we tasted were so delicious and had a hard time choosing, so we went with cake and cupcakes too! I do not have a sweet tooth at all, but this is some of the best cake I have ever eaten. All the guests I have talked to after the wedding, have mentioned how great the cake was as well! I wanted a simplistic but elegant design and they made me just that! I was even able to use fresh flowers from my decorations on the cake for a nice touch. I literally loved everything about the cake! I would definitely recommend Simply Cakes to anyone and everyone!
This place is SO. DANG. GOOD. It was super nice and easy being able to book the consultation online. The tasting was so good. We are getting the chocolate, strawberry shortcake, an...
d sweet potato flavors. I love that we can have different flavors for each tier :)
We could not have been happier with both the grooms cake and our wedding cake, which we got from Simply Cakes. They are very competitively priced and have a variety of cake options...
. The grooms cake was an exact look alike Yeti cooler and we had a custom funfetti wedding cake. Sabrina was very accommodating and willing to do whatever we wanted for our wedding! Would recommend Simply Cakes to anyone!
We had our first cake tasting with Simply Cakes, and even though we loved everything, we still wanted to try other places. Nothing could compete with them, so after buying a cupcak...
e to make sure it was as good as we remembered, we booked them. They were so accommodating and gave us a second tasting to pick our flavors. We decided on white cake with lemon curd and fresh strawberry filling for the bottom tier and chocolate cake with chocolate mousse and amaretto mouse for the middle tier. My husband mentioned the espresso mousse he had seen online because he knows how much I love coffee. They suggested a tiramisu cake with espresso mousse, and we were sold on that for the top tier. We had a very unique cake topper, and they were so helpful with designing a cake that would work with it. We were blown away by the look of the cake and how great everything tasted. We were happily eating leftover cake our entire honeymoon. We'll definitely be back for any future cakes!
The cake was absolutely perfect! Better than I could have ever imagined.
I loved my cake! I loved how it looked! I loved how it tasted! I loved how it stayed in place even though the venue was HOT! I loved everything and I will recommend it to anyone!
So far this place has been better than the other bakeries out in this area. I like to save money, and I checked tons of bakeries. They responded first and had the best price. Excit...
ed to have them provide for our wedding.
Really great business to work with! My wedding cake was beautiful, delicious, and they actually helped me stay within my budget.
I'm not sure how this place managed to get any good reviews. They don't answer the phones, they don't return messages, and the owner is downright RUDE! Do yourself a favor and go...
elsewhere - anywhere else has to be better than this!

use of our wedding, two of our wedding party members are actually using Simply Cakes for their wedding too! I showed Sabrina a picture of the cake design we wanted and she did a great job duplicating the photo! Sabrina was great to work with and the price is very reasonable compared to other wedding cake bakers. I would definitely recommend using simply cakes for your wedding cake!
Desserts were amazing ( cupcakes, tarts, Oreos, dessert cups) and our cutting cake was beautiful. Sabrina designed the cake just as we imagined: jewel tones sugar gems with splashe...
s of colors through out. Great to work with and amazing prices !
We recently worked with Sabrina at Simply Cakes for our wedding cake and could not be more thrilled with how the cake turned out! Sabrina was great to work with, very creative and ...
was able to design exactly what we wanted. They are very flexible and allowed us to chose 4 different variations, one for each tier of our cake. I can’t tell you how many people commented at the wedding (and days after) how fantastic the cake tasted. And of course my husband and I agree! We would highly recommend Sabrina and Simply Cakes for any cake you may need.
Amazing bakery, amazing baker, and a truly amazing cake. Couldn't have asked for a more courteous, professional, and delicious addition to our reception. Looking forward to our com...
plimentary anniversary cake! Well worth the cost :)
We loved working with Simply Cakes, their cake was delicious and the price was great. Their service was also incredible!

red.
At the tasting we were only able to taste what gf products they had on hand. Because of this, she allowed us to come back for a second tasting to taste additional product.
Our cake was gf red velvet cake with strawberry filling. We also had a spice cake cupcake. The texture and taste were awesome! Our guests couldn't believe that everything was gluten free.
The only problem we had - we rented a cake stand from them as well, but it was broken and we had to prop it up for the reception.
Because this bakery offers a free anniversary cake, we are looking forward to reliving our wedding cake experience, without having to freeze our cake. We highly recommend this bakery!!!
We used simply cakes for our groom's cake as well as our wedding cake. SC was able to design a groom's cake that looked exactly like my husband's truck-he was genuinely surprised ...

. Both turned out great and it was all so delicious! Everyone commented on how beautiful and delicious the cake was! Lori was great to work with and very responsive and professional. I would recommend Simply Cakes to anyone getting married in the Raleigh/Durham area!
Lori was awesome to work with! We had 12 dozen cupcakes and they give you a free 6 inch cutting cake with over 10 dozen. Also can go back and have them make us a small anniversar...

We got our wedding cake from Simply Cakes and it was fantastic! The whole process was easy and tasty! We did our tasting and Lorie had many options for us to choose from. The cake ...
itself is moist and the frosting is not overly sweet, which I really appreciate. We had a 4 tier round cake, 2 tiers of banana cake with cream cheese frosting, and 2 tiers of almond cake with cinnamon frosting. Not only was it delicious, but it was stunning. Also, another great perk is Simply Cakes provides you with a cake on your 1 year anniversary, so no defrosting 1 year old cake. We can't wait to eat it again! Simply Cakes also provided a small anniversary cake to my parents, who share the same wedding date with us. I highly recommend Simply Cakes to anyone looking for a wedding cake (or any cake for that matter).
Lori is great to work with and had great ideas on design and flavors. We had 4 tiers with several different flavors, and they were all fresh and delicious.
I was so overwhelmed planning my wedding, and Simply Cakes was the only place I didn't worry about. Cake was so pretty, we didn't want to cut it. It was delivered on time and the...
y put my flowers on for me. I don't think any other bakery I talked to would do that. We get a free anniversary cake too
The whole process with the bakery was smooth and easy every step of the way. the cake was so good, we wish we had leftovers.
Very easy to work with! My cake was better then expected as we had done so many items through email and phone calls. Have recommended to many friends. We didn't have a crumb lef...

I have been to a couple of weddings with her cakes and they are always very good and tasty. I have been by to get cupcakes at their store too.
We loved our wedding cakes and cupcakes, and we heard rave reviews from our wedding attendants as well. Fresh and good quality ingredients make great tasting cakes! I also love how...
you get a free anniversary cake instead of having to freeze the top tier for a while year. I gave 4 stars only because our wedding cake was a bit different than the picture I provided.
I have been to three weddings where Simply Cakes had done the wedding cake. At every wedding, it was delicious! I wanted to use them because I had only heard great things about the...
m. They were awesome to work with and gave me exactly what I wanted. They were friendly and helpful the entire way. They were a reasonable price and they are even going to give us a complimentary cake on our anniversary. They are wonderful! I had a large wedding and they made enough cupcakes for everyone!
My cake was awesome!! Not only did it look beautiful - exactly how we discussed, but it tasted amazing! The Sweet potato cake layer was my favorite - but the fact that I could have...
4 different cake flavors with my 4 layer cake with two differnet fillings in each layer made Simply Cake untouchable - their quality of service was great and I am very happy I had them make my wedding cake! I can wait to get my 1 yr anniversay cake!
Lorie at Simply Cakes is great. She is so creative and her work is fantastic. My husband and I went in for a tasting and fell in love with her cakes right away. We did cupcakes at...
the wedding with a top cake. She has so many flavors to choose from, you can't go wrong. I don't like cupcakes with a ton on frosting on top, and these are not like that, they have the perfect frosting-to-cake ratio for me. All of the flavors we chose were delicious. Lorie was easy to get in touch with and always responded to my emails quickly. They delivered everything on time on the day of and I had no doubt that everything would be perfect. If you decide to do cupcakes, don't forget to buy some to-go boxes so people can take some with them, that was a hit with our guests!
Our wedding cake turned out beautifully and tasted phenomenal! There were only a few pieces left of the cake at the end of the wedding and everyone finished the pieces they had. ...
Lorie at simply cakes was wonderful to work with as well. We look forward to our anniversary cake in the next year :)
Lorie was amazing!! We had a sit down meeting/cake tasting with her. She asked me to bring a few things about our wedding so she could get a feel of what we were looking for. She w...
ent above and beyond what I thought anyone could do! We are still getting compliments on how delicious our cake was and how amazing the design was! I can't thank Lorie enough!
My husband and I had carrot, red velvet, chocolate, and vanilla cupcakes with a two tier cake on top with red velvet and carrot cake. Her carrot cake is absolutely the most delicio...
us ever. We were more concerned with the taste than looks, but we were delightfully surprised to have both. She also made us a bleeding armidilla grooms cake (for Steel Magnolias) and it was gorgeous! Would use her again if we had to do it all over again!
We chose to have cupcakes rather than a cake for our wedding. We tried many, many cupcake bakeries in the area and chose Simply Cakes because they were not only yummy but also the...
perfect size with just the right amount of frosting, they were filled for extra creaminess and flavor, and they were perfectly moist. They were exactly what we wanted! And Lorie was so incredibly helpful and easy to work with. It took us awhile to chose colors and design for our set up and she was very patient and helpful with exchanging ideas and what she thought would work best. We trusted her to design a perfect display for us, and she did not dissapoint! The cupcakes looked and tasted perfect on our wedding day, and our guests loved them as much as we did!
Lorie at Simply Cakes not only made us a beautiful cake exactly as we wanted, she made the best-tasting wedding cake I've ever had. Every layer (we had three flavors) was delicious...
and stayed moist and delicious for several days afterwards. We can't wait for our anniversary cake!
