Tamara's Cake Guru made us the wedding cupcakes of our dreams ! All of the guests raved how good they were and were and were suprised that they were filled! We had red velvet, whit...
e wedding, triple chocolate, and carrot cupcakes, and they were amazing. Highly recommend Cake Guru for any event! They also helped set up and make the presentation beautiful for our guests!
Tamara made the most gorgeous wedding cake for our reception. I sent her a few photos with what I was looking for, and she made it perfectly. With some flowers from my florist, it ...
looked absolutely stunning. And her cakes are absolutely delicious. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed picking out our cake flavors. She offers many different and creative cakes and fillings. I got so many compliments from guests on how delicious the cake was, and by the end of the evening the entire cake was gone! Would absolutely order from her again for future events, just fantastic
Tamara's did such an exception job on our wedding cake! We ended up getting a small tiered cake for photos and then sheet cakes for serving our guests. This was such a good option ...
because we could take advantage of their fun flavor menu and have different cake flavors for our guests. They are such a unique bakery and provide such delicious cakes. In addition to being delicious, they also created a cake for us that matched our inspiration picture exactly. I absolutely recommend Tamara's!
Amazing desserts for our wedding! So easy! They brought the stands and took care of the delivery! Recommend then to anyone looking for wedding desserts!
We used Tamara's cupcakes and cake for our wedding for 100 people and it was great. We sent them our cake ideas, sent them our cupcakes we wanted and they set it up for us at our v...
enue without me even knowing they came. Our cake was EXACTLY how I described it to them and the cupcakes and cake were both delicious.
Staff is friendly and helpful and the cake was decorated beautifully and exactly like we had in mind. The cake, filling, and frosting were all extremely delicious and we received s...
o many compliments!
Tamara’s were extremely flexible and worked with us the entire time. The food was fantastic and we rented our dessert set up from them and it turned out fantastic. I’m very excited...
that next year we can get our wedding cake for $10, no need to freeze it!! 😀
My guests LOVED the mini dessert table we had with 7 different desserts. Not everyone loves cake or the flavor you pick, so this was a great way to let people get what they want. ...
It one word I would say- GO!
Beautiful cupcakes! We did the Lux-mini. They were the perfect size for guests to have 2-3. The decoration was exactly what we were expecting, and they were able to do a special re...
quest on the cutting cake.
Cake and cupcakes were amazing! Everyone loved them so much that we ran out!
We had a 4-tiered cake and mini cupcakes for our special day and they all turned out amazing! Very easy to work with and truly made my cake idea come to life!
Ever since I started going to Tamara's I knew I wanted them to do the cake for my wedding. Everyone was so helpful and gave us exactly what we had hoped for! We got 8 dozen cupcake...
s (and added one dozen less than a month before the wedding with no issue) and a small top cake for us to cut. Everything was absolutely delicious as always and the design of the top cake and cupcake tiers was gorgeous. Our guests loved the cupcakes, and my husband and I loved how our top cake turned out! I would recommend Tamara's to anyone that wants both delicious cake/cupcakes and someone to make their cake what you hoped for. They only thing that would make me happier is if all our guests didn't take the Lick the Bowl cupcakes and leave none for me! :)
Absolutely incredible! Had cupcakes for our recent wedding through them and it was amazing. They tasted incredible and looked even better (not sure how that is possible!). They w...

Delicious cupcakes that all my guests raged about! So many flavors to choose from!!
From start to finish, this was stress-free. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The cupcakes are so decadent, and the top cake was gorgeous! Everything was del...
ivered and set up perfectly, on time. We are beyond satisfied with Tamara’s.
My husband and I went to a wedding tasting at their Oshkosh locations. While we were there we were able to sample several of their cupcake flavors and we decided to book them for o...
ur wedding. We were then able to pick from their never ending list of cupcake flavors to try at our own private tasting. We had 4 different flavored cupcakes and a small two tiered cake at our wedding. We had some many compliments on how amazing the cupcakes were at the wedding. The best part was that we got the Mini Lux cupcakes which allowed out guests (and ourselves) to try multiple different flavors. My husband and I shared one of each flavor at our wedding. I would highly recommend Tamara's. We will definitely be return customers!
Excellent cake, great people to work with. We received rave reviews at the wedding! We’re looking forward to our anniversary cake next year! So glad they offer gluten free options ...
that don’t taste like people expect gluten free to taste.
Tamaras really caught my eye but the design and decor of the building. Then their cupcakes drew me and and for the first time I had a macaroon. I fell in love. I went for a cake te...
sting and signed my contract. I wanted a place that had experience in elegant unique design cakes and Tamara's was it. So glad I booked with them
Fantastic to work with! Cupcakes were beautiful and delicious! All our out-of-town guest said best cupcakes they ever had!
Tamara and her team certainly whip up some amazing desserts! I had the most delicious cupcakes, mini-cupcakes, and cookies displayed at my wedding on rustic wooden stumps; all of t...
he bakery, stands, and names were delivered and set-up beautifully. Everything turned out better than expectations (and my expectations were high going in)!
We had a 3-tier wedding cake and a dozen gluten-free cupcakes. The wedding cake was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we asked for. Very tasty, too (3 flavors: white, blue velv...
et, and carrot cake)! They honored our sign-on pricing that we had agreed to around a year prior, which was much appreciated. Very pleased!
Incredible Service! All 250 cupcakes and our 2 tier cake were fantastic and tasted amazing!
Our cake turned out amazing. We had the someone pack us up a small box and put it off to the side, so we actually got to try all the flavors. And not only did it look amazing it ta...
sted great too. We also had Tamaras make a small grooms cake that looked like a hobbit house as a surprise, and my husband was so excited about it. It was exactly what I asked for.
We had to plan the wedding from a distance, so communication is key. Unfortunately we didn't have the best experience with Tamara's customer service, but the wedding cake itself wa...
s great. They were able to make an all vegan cake and drop it off early so the florist could put flowers on it. If only they could get my name right..
I'd had cupcakes from the Cake Guru a few times before choosing them to make our cake so I knew what to expect in terms of quality and that expectation was met throughout the proce...
ss. From the first tasting to the big day they were communicative but not pushy and so wonderful. We gave them a very vague idea of what we wanted the cake to look like and had no clue how it would turn out but were so pleased with the result. We received so many compliments on the cupcakes and on the cake. We'll definitely go to them first for our next big event.
We had Cake Guru cupcakes for our wedding with a top cake for the bride and groom. We were able to have five different cupcake flavors so there was an option for everyone. They wer...
e so delicious and big! Before the wedding we went to a cupcake tasting with my family at the Oshkosh shop and it was great! I highly recommend.
Best wedding cake/cupcakes ever!!! I was so happy when I saw our cupcakes and wedding cake on display at our reception. Everything looked beautiful and they tasted super yummy! ...
All my guests kept telling me how great the cupcakes tasted and they were all very impressed with the size.
During the planning stages of our wedding all the staff was very helpful with setting everything up. I would highly recommend The Cake Guru to anyone.
Endless compliments on the cupcakes we had. Delicious and so many flavors to pick from
Their cakes and cupcakes are delicious, but they are difficult to deal with. I had to continually follow-up to be sure my contract and payments were received, my flavors were corre...
ct, my design would be as I wanted it, and the delivery details. In the end the the design cake design looked nice but had minor flaws, which is disappointing when you spend the time and money to have it exactly as you want.
I would not recommend as a wedding cake vendor.
Tamara's cake guru provided an array of amazing desserts for my wedding (130 guests). We had 4 flavors of cheesecake and 4 flavors of cupcakes, plus a decorated cheesecake for a c...

I am so glad we went with Tamara's cupcakes! We originally wanted small cakes on each table, but we soon realized that was not going to be a cost efficient option. Tamara offered u...
s cupcakes for the same price per person as a slice of wedding cake at other places (1"x1.5"). We went to go try out the cupcakes, and we were stunned. You are able to try 3 cupcake flavors, but the cupcakes are so big my husband and I were only able to make it through 2. Then, we were given a list of about 300 different flavors to pick from. Tamara definitely has any flavor you can dream up. I never actually got to meet Tamara, but here assistant was so helpful every single time we went it. We got exactly what we wanted, and our guests could not stop talking about how much they loved the cupcakes. I agree with a few other posts that Tamara does not always return e-mails immediately, but if I ever needed something done right away, I would just call and it would be taken care of within the hour so I did not find that to be a problem. The only thing to be aware of is that you need to return the cleaned cake/cupcake stands within a few days, but the store is closed on Mondays, which it when I would consider to be the best time to return supplies. This may not be an issue if you live nearby, but my husband and I lived pretty far away, so that was really the only trouble we ran into. The cupcakes and cake were totally worth everything we spent on them, and my guests couldn't get enough! We didn't have almost any to take home, because our guests all took extra home with them.
We got cupcakes and one small tier for our reception. They were willing to include gluten-free cupcakes, and all the favors were incredible!
My biggest regret is that I didn't ...
save myself my favorite flavor to eat later!
The cake was beautiful and tasty. They provided us with labels for the cupcakes, which was good for the less adventurous. Guests asked me all night where we got the cupcakes.
Everyone at the wedding loved the cupcakes, and still raves about them. They are really amazing tasting. Most are stuffed with flavor on the inside. They are decorated cutely, ta...
ste amazing, and the value is great. I think they were $2.50/cupcake.
My mom told me about Tamara's after she tasted her cakes at a bridal show. I'm so glad she did! The cake was absolutely delicious, and we were able to have all three layers be diff...

I was also able to work with Tamara and customize the design of my cake to exactly what I wanted and it turned out so beautifully! She was also very easy to work with, so when I changed my mind on designs I could email her, and she was always friendly and accommodating. Plus, it was very affordable!
We had cupcakes at our wedding and they were such a hit! Everyone was complementing us on how delicious everything was. Their customer service is impeccable and the price is very r...

There are limited vendors in the area and if you're looking for something more modern, this is probably your best choice. However, it is difficult to schedule your consultation (ne...
ed to call, they don't respond to email). Once booked they were still hard to reach to confirm details. Also, they were not accommodating when I requested an earlier delivery time than what they "usually" do. I wanted it there earlier to make sure the flowers were properly placed.. Since they wouldn't accommodate that, I didn't get to see the cake until our grand march and the flowers were not right.
We made the best choice given the location of our wedding but if you go with this vendor be advised regarding the service.
The cake is delicious and the cupcakes are amazing. The list of cupcake flavors are endless - it was very hard to choose just 6 for our wedding! Everything is delicious and the pri...
ce is just perfect. Tamara did an awesome job with our wedding cake and cupcakes - they were beautiful and yummy! Highly recommended - even just for a snack while in Oshkosh!
The cupcakes were amazing (5 flavours), everyone loved them, and they really decorated them perfectly!
My husband also has food sensitivities, so they made a special cheesecake...
that was to die-for! We really appreciated that they went out of their way to accommodate us.
We did not have a chance to meet with them prior to our wedding (we live in Canada), and therefore our request kind of fell off the map. They were not the best at responding to emails, but once the event got closer - they were on the ball.
The cupcakes and cake pops were amazing! My only regret was that I didn't get a chance to eat two because they went so fast. The variety of flavors were amazing and the display wa...

I loved our cake! The choices of flavors at the Cake Guru are just outstanding! I really liked that they do not charge extra for more intricate designs like minimal piping and simp...
le flowers, fondant bows, etc. Our cake was one of the things the guests talked about the most! My grif was that the price was $3 per person, but that seems to be better than most. It was nice to receive 50% off the delivery fee by booking through the green bay wedding show.
We hired Tamara to create cupcakes for our wedding. She did a phenomenal job with the design and color matching! Not only were they beautiful to look at, but they were absolutely d...
elicious! She allowed us to use a variety of flavors in order to satisfy our guests. Tamara and her staff were extremely professional, and she did a great job accommodating my food allergies. I highly recommend her! We received rave reviews from all of our guests.
We LOVED our cake that Tamara made for our wedding. We could not have been happier! I highly suggest anyone in the Fox Valley area or any other surrounding areas contact her!
Tamara was able to create a beautiful cake from my husband's drawing of what he wanted it to look like. She also had the perfect cake base (a wooden stump) that we didn't know if w...

Was hard to work with because she was so busy. Hopefully with her new location and extra staff this wont be a problem going forward because her cupcakes were delicious!

never had to worry about the cake getting there, she was on top of everything and spoke directly to the resort manager. She was great to deal with and was very accommodating to our needs! Her pricing was the best we found for the amount of design, flavor and filling that you get. We were thrilled to have her cake on display!
