We are SO GLAD we hired Sweet for Sirten to bake our wedding cakes! We are a lesbian couple, and Jessica was totally cool with that. I LOVE cake, and I have been dreaming about my wedding cake since I was little, so I had VERY high standards fo...r both taste and appearance, and Jessica absolutely hit the mark!!
I liked that Jessica let us try five different cake and frosting flavors at the tasting, and that she let us bring four people to join in the fun! The cakes were moist and perfectly spongy. The buttercream frosting was the perfect balance between butter and sugar. We loved the dark chocolate taste and thicker texture of the chocolate ganache frosting. The mixed berry filling was an amazing mix of fresh berry puree and buttercream frosting. Jessica's recommendations for cake/frosting flavor combinations were all delicious.
We ended up getting two cakes, each with 3 layers (10, 8 and 6 inch diameter). One cake had yellow frosting and the other was chocolate. The yellow cake had one layer with white almond cake, mixed berry filling and almond buttercream frosting, and the other layers were vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream frosting. The chocolate cake had one layer with chocolate cake, chocolate ganache filling, and chocolate buttercream frosting (this combo is called "death by chocolate") and the other layers were fudge marble cake and chocolate buttercream frosting. All the flavors were superb and our guests raved that they loved the cake.
I spent days looking at the portfolios of ten different cake bakers in the area, and Sweet for Sirten definitely had the most beautiful cakes out of all the bakers who were willing to deliver to Panama City Beach. The sugar daisies that she made to decorate our cakes were gorgeous and beautifully arranged. The yellow buttercream frosting on one of our cakes was amazingly smooth, and we loved the texture of the chocolate buttercream frosting on the other cake.
Jessica is super friendly and always responded promptly to my emails. She was also very flexible when I needed to change the time of our tasting appointment. Her cakes are gorgeous and definitely worth every penny. We absolutely recommend that you hire Sweet for Sirten to bake your wedding cake!!
