Amazing experience with Cake Boutique. They were extremely helpful with selecting our cake flavors and explaining designs for us within our budget. Everyone loved the cake and we were so happy to be able to enjoy them too.

The Cake Boutique did a wonderful job on our wedding cake. I didn't even think I cared about the cake as much as I ended up LOVING IT!! They truly brought my vision to life. I really enjoyed the tasting process (even with covid times) getting to mix and match cake flavors and icing flavors. We ended up with Vanilla and Brown Sugar icing - omg so good!! It was such a beautiful cake and The Cake Boutique were so easy to work with!

We worked with the Cake Boutique for our June wedding in Cape May and we could not be happier. The employees are kind, professional and take the time to make your vision a reality. Out of the other options for dessert vendors we decided to work with The Cake Boutique because the cake was fresh (we went with lemon) and the icing was delicious without being over powering or fake tasting. Our hexagon shaped cake turned out beautifully and we received so many compliments on how it looked and tasted. Thank you Cake Boutique!

We were SO impressed with the Cake Boutique and could not thank them enough for making our wedding cake so unique and special.
All of the staff and bakers were so sweet and accommodating to ensure that we got the wedding cake that we wanted.
Our favorite part about working with the Cake Boutique was their cake tasting when it came time to choosing cake/icing flavors. They let us try any flavor we wanted in "flight" style so that we could pick our icing/cake flavor pairing that we liked the
most. We couldn't decide between two flavors, and they were so accommodating that they let us have both! The lemon cake paired with the raspberry icing was SO refreshing and matched perfectly for a summer wedding. The tasting was so much fun and such a memorable part of our wedding planning experience.
We also were thrilled with they way the design of our cake turned out. We were getting married down the shore, and met at Villanova that we really wanted a cake with blue tones that also had a nautical vibe. The Cake Boutique worked with us in person to design the cake, and on the wedding day, they completely exceeded our expectations with gorgeous shades of blue in an ombre, marble style- which is exactly what we wanted!
Not only are their cakes delicious but the versatility of the Cake Boutique will help you to design the wedding cake of your dreams, no matter your vision! Be sure to their check out their store in Mullica Hill which is adorably decorated and they have other scrumptious treats as well to offer!

We loved the Cake Boutique!! They worked with us as we went from 200 person wedding with a huge cake, cupcakes, donuts, and macaroons to 35 person 2 tier cake with macaroons. They were easy to work with and coordinate the details of what we wanted. They took our exact vision and made it a reality! Our guests said it was the best wedding cake they've had (we got cookies and cream!!). Highly recommend for wedding or even smaller events!

Some wedding cakes are beautiful. Some wedding cakes are delicious. Thanks to The Cake Boutique, our wedding cake was both beautiful AND delicious. We opted for a funfetti cake with a traditional vanilla buttercream and it was literally perfect. It tasted amazing and was decorated exactly how we discussed at the tasting. So glad we chose them as our baker!

The Cake Boutique did an AMAZING job on our wedding cake. The gold leaf was breathtaking and I didn't want them to even cut the cake! Thank you so much Lori & staff for baking up the best cake we've ever tasted or laid eyes on. I had guests stopping at our house to pick up leftovers the next day!

Can't say enough about how great every cake I have ordered from The Cake Boutique has been. The cakes are absolutely gorgeous and always the talk of the event (from weddings to bridal showers to baby showers to first birthdays). Not to mention how delicious they are! And the service has been phenomenal, everyone is patient and very willing to help! Definitely recommend.

I get my weekly fix with all their seasonal cupcake flavors- I love seeing what they come up with each week. I even choose a seasonal flavor for our wedding cake! It was cinnamon streusel and looked too good to eat! There wasn't even a piece left over!! Everyone has been asking us for their contact information, saying our desserts where the best they ever had!! Our venue even asked for their contact information!
Whether you are stopping for cupcakes or ordering a birthday cake- The Cake Boutique kills it!!

We trusted Alexandra and her team to create us a perfect cake- and we are so glad we did! The cake was more than we could have ever imagined- it was stunning! Bravo!! Great service, great products-can't thank them enough!!!

We had the Cake Boutique make our daughters Baptism 2-tier cake and it was amazing. Not only was the flavor and the cake it itself amazing, it was everything we wanted and more. We will be going back to them for more orders in the future as they were very reasonable, friendly and could accommodate our needs.

This rating is honestly based entirely on their customer service. I want to start off and say this was a very delicious cake and I hear their desserts were equally as delicious! When we first booked this vendor, we were greeted very warmly and got super excited about our desserts! When we booked, I was with my family who sort of persuaded us to go a different route with the cake. On the contract it says if we want to make changes, we can do so as long as it's two weeks before the date. The only caveat is that it has to be on the phone. That is probably the most bizarre part because they are only available at certain hours of the day and even then, you can hardly ever reach the actual girl you need to talk to! About 6 weeks before the wedding, I called them up (probably tried about three separate times and left messages before I could finally reach my contact). I asked if we might be able to change the look and make it plain and put real flowers on it. Well I got snapped at - she told me yeah they could do that, however because it's a holiday weekend, I would need to drop the flowers off myself, the day before my wedding and they would refrigerate the flowers and use them on the cake. Well not only did I know i wouldn't be able to drop flowers off the day before, but I also knew that refrigerating flowers overnight would make them wilt!! I just agreed to the original design as I knew that's what SHE wanted anyway and hung up. A couple weeks later I was feeling pretty upset about the whole thing and decided I just wanted a plain cake, nothing fancy. Well I got yelled at!! First I got yelled at because apparently they had already started the cake-making process 1 month before the wedding! I was also accused of trying to put my own flowers on the cake AFTER delivery on the day of; I was told that's 'breach of contract', (even though by then I've bought the cake and it's in my possession so I don't quite understand that), and continued to lecture me! I literally cried I was so upset by the way this was handled. My fiance was livid and we even discussed possibly pulling out all-together and finding someone else. I decided that I didn't want to pay the extra money and to stress about finding someone else so we just decided to go through with it. After the wedding, I found out that the Cake Boutique complained about "pushy brides" to my step-mother who had paid for the cake! The cake was very nice, don't get me wrong, but the customer service experience was so bad, we will never go back.

We are very happy to hear everyone loved and raved about your wedding cake, grooms cake, a...
nd desserts, and we apologize you were unhappy with our policies and the contract which you agreed to. Our contract was created to ensure our clients know and receive the very best product possible. Here at The Cake Boutique we strive for both superior products and customer service. In the 50+ email correspondence, multiple phone conversations, and sit down consultations with you and your fiance we did our very best to meet all of your demands, adjustments and changes within the limits of our contract, policies and beyond with the utmost respect and professionalism (As The Cake Boutique is known to be). We are a business with standard business hours, therefore, all of our responses are done within the next business day. After you had confirmed your order, your gum paste flowers were started, as explained to you, they are a lengthy process and during the summer need ample dry time (at no point during this time was your actual cake started). The option was still available to make the adjustment you requested, no persuasion was attempted, we just provided the necessary explanations. Our contract policy states, no one else can alter our cakes with fresh flowers, as it is a safety and liability issue - we need to ensure flowers (which are not always food safe) are put on in a proper manner. The owner personally came in on your wedding day which was a holiday weekend, and technically a day we were closed, to make and deliver your cakes and desserts. We have reached out to you personally to go over this with you and look forward to speaking with you.

I used the Cake Boutique for my engagement party and wedding shower. They are incredible. For my engagement party they created a custom dessert table and we had an amazing display of cookies shaped like wedding rings, cupcakes with our names on them, cake pops, you name it. For my shower we had something similar as well as a unique "Philadelphia" themed cake that was DELICIOUS! The desserts from Cake Boutique were a topic of conversation at both events and many friends who were also getting married ended up using them as well and loved it. The owner is extremely creative and has a way of creating what you want in a way that is even better than what you are trying to explain. I have since used the Cake Boutique for birthday cakes and cakes for other events, and they never disappoint! It is my go-to bakery now and I love how all of my orders seem to have such a personal touch.

My husband and I had a great experience working with The Cake Boutique to design our perfect nautical themed wedding cake. The owner, Alexandra, and her staff were very accommodating to answer every question and completed any request we had. The night of our wedding we served cake and mini cupcakes that our guests absolutely loved. We got many compliments not only on how beautiful our cake was but also how delicious it tasted! The mini cupcakes were a big hit for having something sweet and heading right back to the dance floor. We cannot thank The Cake Boutique enough for the great addition their expertise added to our special day!

Alexandra and her team at the Cake Boutique did my cousin's baby shower cake, it was the most beautiful cake I'd ever seen, tasted delicious and was so detailed and gorgeous , all the guests were questioning if it was edible! When it came time for my bridal shower, it was a no-brainer who to hire. The Cake Boutique did a SPECTACULAR three-tiered Cinderella cake to go with my theme with gold leaves wrapped around and a beautiful carriage on top. They also did a full dessert display featuring carriage cookies, rock candy, mini cupcakes with our wedding logo imprinted on it, fruit tarts, chocolate balls, cake pops with gold leaves and much more...she even provided containers for people to take what they wanted and gorgeous canisters and trays to display everything. My guests could not stop raving about how beautiful and delicious it was, a few even texted me after the event asking for her contact information for their upcoming events! All her ingredients are top-quality and you can tell the difference once you taste one bite!
We're so excited to have Alexandra and her team make our wedding cake for our upcoming wedding this fall. I love that it's one less thing I have to worry about, I told her my colors and my theme and am completely comfortable trusting her to create the design on her own (and Im a HUGE control freak so that's saying a lot!) I know whatever it looks like, it will blow everyone away in design and taste!!!! They are true artists here and all so nice and easy to deal with. It was a breeze setting up a consultation. LOOK NO FURTHER FOR YOUR WEDDING BAKERY, THIS IS IT!!!! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!

Since the Cake Boutique first opened, it has been my family's go to bakery so it was a no brainer to go there for anything wedding related. In the past few years we have had the Cake Boutique make cakes for engagement parties, bridal showers and weddings. Each one was beautiful and matched the theme of the occasion perfectly. They also offer cupcakes, cake pops and macaroons that perfectly compliment any cake option. The team at the Cake Boutique makes picking and designing a cake an easy and fun process. It's a great feeling to know that when you give them an idea for a cake, what you will get in return will far exceed your expectations. The cakes not only look amazing but they are delicious too. The cake is always moist and flavorful and the multiple buttercream options make it easy to find something that can please a large crowd. I always love what we get from the Cake Boutique and would recommend them to any bride that wants to have a stress free planning process resulting in an amazing and delicious wedding cake on their big day.

The Cake Boutique did a wonderful job executing our vision for our wedding. We ordered a three tier cake and wanted flavors that were seasonal (fall) and that complimented the AMAZING cream cheese filling. Everyone was patient and helped talk us through the options so flavor-wise and aesthetically we would be happy. We settled on cinnamon for the outer butter cream, spackled over vanilla cake with cream cheese frosting inside. In addition to the cake, we ordered some gluten free cupcakes for a few folks, and 120 lavender colored macarons in five different filling flavors: Pumpkin Spice, Mocha, Lemon, Raspberry and Vanilla.
Everyone flipped over the macarons, I saw people stuffing them into their favor boxes by the handful! The cake was a unique flavor, unexpected, and was delicious. The speckly tan color on the outside, with raffia and lavender roses adorning the bottom of each tier, and our own cake topper, the cake was beautiful and appropriate for our Sunday brunch fall wedding. It tasted amazing - moist, rich flavors and well balanced flavors. The cupcakes for the gluten free folks were delicious, and people were so appreciative that they had dessert. Additionally, I was supremely grateful that they worked to deliver the cake to me when normally they would be closed. The weather was awful and I had thrown my back out and was unable to walk, so knowing that they were going to bring the cake and deliver it on site I was so relieved. Thank you Cake Boutique!

I wanted to surprise my husband with a grooms cake. He works with boilers and invited his whole company to the wedding. The Cake Boutique did an awesome job! Everyone loved it! The whole company took photos in front of it. This price was also affordable. I was afraid it was going to be super expensive but it was less than I thought which was great.

The Cake Boutique worked with me to make the cake that my partner and I wanted. We had a lot of choices, we could pick the icing, the cake flavor for each layer and the filling for each layer. I felt that whatever we could imagine, they could do! It was perfect. The cake was beautiful and everyone at the wedding said it was amazing. Thank you!
