Lauren was great from the beginning. She is very responsive. We were able to do the take take-home cake tasting. She even accommodates a gluten free option! We did the gluten free chocolate cake with a chocolate ganache filling & the gluten free vanilla cake with whipped cream and strawberries as our cake flavors. Our cake was gorgeous and delicious. We definitely recommend The Cake Boutique by Lauren.

This was the most delicious, tastiest and beautifully made cake I’ve ever had. I can’t thank Lauren enough for creating something special for our wedding day. She also made mini cheesecakes for the bride.

was tough to finalize our choice, my wife & I love our sweets, but we went with a 3 tier cake with additional sheet cakes. The flavors & filling we chose were: 6" - Red Velvet + Cream Cheese 8" - Vanilla + Strawberry Preserves 10" - Vanilla + Lemon Curd All of our guests loved the cake so much, even with us overestimating our guest count, there was nothing left! We provided Lauren an idea for the cake and we both couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. In addition to the cake, we also had her make 4 dozen cupcakes. Again, everything tasted so delicious. You truly made our day even more special. Thank you!

ay. I chose her to bake my wedding cake after my family and I have asked her to make cakes for several other events over the years (bridal showers, baby showers, birthdays, baptisms). Every guest always raves about how delicious AND beautiful Lauren’s cakes are. I can’t recommend her enough. She is also the sweetest person to work with. She is so talented and brings every vision you ask her for to life! I can’t thank Lauren enough and I am looking forward to the next event I can order a cake for! I also absolutely love her cake pops and macarons! Ok, I love everything on her menu :) She also makes certain items gluten free which is incredible for someone like me with celiac disease. She made me a separate small gluten free cake for my wedding!

My wedding cake was insanely moist and delicious. Her pastries will have you craving more. Her prices are just right and her location is perfect as she is willing to deliver and do pickups. You’d be a fool to not hire her today. My wedding cake was gorgeous and could not ask for a better person to be my pastry chef.
