r tried and I’m normally not a strawberry champagne girl but this. Was. Perfect. Thank you!!
There is nothing that Danetra makes that isn't flat out scrumptious. We knew 100% that she was the person we wanted to make the cake and desserts for our daughters wedding. In fa...
ct she did it for two weddings - the small family event we had when Covid shut us all down and finally the big wedding a year later.
Her red velvet cake - both of them - was as delicious as they were beautiful. She piled the table high with her signature brownies, custom flavored donuts and cookie sandwiches.
She was so easy to work with, delivery and set up was a breeze.
Cannot recommend her highly enough!

ur guests were extremely happy when they got to take them home. Her dessert flavors are not only delicious but fun and creative which added a little something extra to our wedding. Not to mention Danetra is beyond sweet and easy to work with.

ents and gave us such personal attention. She created a gorgeous lemon meringue pound cake and an assortment of deserts (get the maple butter cupcakes. DO IT). And the macaroons... to die for. Luckily we had several people cancel last minute so we now have a freezer full of her treats :D
In all seriousness, she's absolutely phenomenal and made us feel like she really cared about our wedding.
Seriously, do not even consider anyone else except Danetra and Swank Desserts for your wedding cake / desserts. Our only mistake was NOT ordering enough! Once we cut the cake, the ...
desserts were gone within 15 minutes. I'm so bummed we didn't order more, but I was SO happy with how everything came out including the set up.

sting was a great experience when we were choosing flavors. Definitely not your same old plain Jane vanilla cake. She also took great effort to make sure that everything LOOKED beautiful. Awesome cake stands, gold foil, placed the cake flowers perfectly, most amazing naked cakes I have ever seen. Even our caterer told us that she will be recommending Swank from now on because she loved the cakes so much. Thank you Swank!!
The dessert was absolutely delicious and incredibly beautiful! They had great customer service and I would highly recommend!
Danetra's unique desserts are just as delicious as they are beautiful! Danetra at Swank Desserts helped to create our beautiful two-tiered banana puddin' naked wedding cake, along ...
with an assortment of delicious mini-cupcakes, and helped to create macarons as wedding favors. Danetra completely captured and executed our December/Winter wedding vision. She even gave us the idea to add the silver leaf design to our wedding cake, which was absolutely beautiful! Danetra was a pleasure and joy to work with from the very beginning. From our exchange of emails, to our delicious tasting, and finally the big day, everything was perfect. Danetra, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your beautiful creations are a direct reflection of you. :)
With great thanks,
Rachel
Danetra was truly wonderful to work with! As a destination bride with a dairy allergy, she made me feel comfortable and confident in her ability to make a safe cake and cupcakes f...
or our wedding day. All our guests raved about the cupcakes and had no idea they were dairy free! In addition to accommodating the allergy request, she truly put together a beautiful display table. Suffice to say, by the end of the night, all the desserts were gone! Looking forward to enjoying some more treats for our one year anniversary next year.
We used Swank Desserts for our wedding this past October, and we are SO thrilled that we did. Danetra was a blast to work with through our wedding journey. She came to our home f...
or our taste testing, and everything was so good that it was such a hard decision. My husband and I aren't big cake fans, but we still wanted to have a cake for our wedding day--Swank had a cake flavor that we couldn't resist, it was SOOO good. While our cake was on the smaller side, Swank delivered so many other fabulous treats on our wedding day. We had cookies, cotton candy marshmallows, macrons, and cupcakes. HOLY YUMMY! Everything was perfect, so customized, looked gorgeous, and had a great taste. When Danetra found out I loved cotton candy, she wanted to include it in our dessert menu, and we found so many fun ways to do just that. She also works with pop rocks, which are so much fun! Her creations were awesome and the result was a super fun + beautiful display at our wedding--my macrons were even monogrammed, y'all. Thanks so much for all you did to ensure our guests had a tummy full of the most fabulous treats in Charleston!
