We loved our red velvet and cream cheese frosting wedding cake from Sweet Crimes. The cake was delicious and looked gorgeous. Our guests really enjoyed it.
The cake was both delicious and gorgeous - and Sweet Crimes was very attentive to matching the decorations on the cake to the wedding flowers. Perfect cake for a perfect day!
Keri is a dream to work with! At our tasting with her, we were blown away by both the quality of her desserts and the gorgeous presentation. She was very creative and flexible with...
us in terms of customizing the cupcake flavors and desserts for our wedding reception, and was amazing enough to deliver them even at a three hour drive away. For the folks in our crowd who can't consume gluten due to intolerance or allergy/Celiac's, they really appreciated not only being able to eat any of the desserts at the wedding that they wished, but that the desserts were super amazing on top of it. Everything was fantastic, but the real stars of her baking repertoire were the carrot cake and red velvet cupcakes, the lemon bars, and her toffee-chip-cookies. We've also visited her at Smorgasbord in DC, and her donuts are exquisite as well. Quick additional tip: we popped our leftover lemon bars in the freezer to preserve them, and they're amazing frozen as well as in their normal state.
Whether you're gluten free or not (and even if you're not, chances are you're probably inviting someone who is), definitely set up a tasting with her. You'll be delighted!
We loved our gluten free wedding cake from Sweet Crimes. We had a vendor-contactless covid wedding and Keri dropped off a beautiful wedding cake on our doorstep for us to enjoy and...
take to our venue location for our micro wedding. She provided great instructions for transport and keeping the cake fresh, which was indeed still moist and perfect for our wedding day. The decorations were elegant and everyone loved our carrot cake choice! Would highly recommend for any special occasion. We definitely will be ordering from Sweet Crimes for anniversaries to come!
