re sold on getting our wedding cake from here and we loved the look of the cupcakes so much we decided to go with cupcakes for our wedding. The strawberry cupcakes with italian meringue were absolutely delicious and a hit with all who tried them at the wedding. I wish we lived closer to Charleston and could get desserts more often from them but if Lauren ever publishes a cook book I can guarantee I will be among the first to purchase to try and replicate the deliciousness. Thank you Lauren for the amazing cupcakes and cake for our wedding!!
The Cake Stand provided delicious cakes for our wedding day and were so great to work with! Tons of options and they were so flexible with the process in choosing them!

so good! We ended up going with a lemon/raspberry cake which was absolutely perfect for our summer wedding. The cake itself was also beautiful - Lauren made it look even better than our inspo pics! I am so glad we have cake left over so we can keep enjoying our delicious cake for many months to come!

Her carrot cake was the best I've ever had! We had a three tier cake and originally we were going to do three different flavors, but opted for just one flavor due to certain allergies with our guests. She was so easy to communicate with and made certain that our guests with allergies wouldn't have any issues. She even gave us a sweet anniversary cake in a separate box. Her work is not only beautiful, but it tastes delicious as well! Thanks, Lauren!
Lauren at the Cake Stand made our daughter's wedding cake and it was not only beautiful but delicious as well. She was very easy to work with and is so talented with her designs. ...

Absolutely Amazing!!!
My review comes a few weeks after my wedding, which was on March 9, 2019, but I cannot continue on another day without telling the world how pleased I was wit...
h my wedding cake designed by "The Cake Stand" on James Island in South Carolina. Will and Lauren were absolutely the best wedding cake vendors that I could have asked for. I had a vision for my cake, but did not have specific details in mind. Lauren sat down with me and got to know a little bit about me and how my reception was being decorated. She made suggestions that were absolutely perfect for me. They are a kind couple and I love their story, as she spent time sharing a little about herself during my cake tasting. My cake was not only beautiful, but it taste amazing. My caterer said he'd never seen an entire cake disappear at a wedding as fast as my cake did. During my cake tasting, they made me feel important, and that mattered a lot to me because planning a wedding is not easy. With Lauren, there was no fuss. We decided on the flavors, the tiers, and the delivery time. I made my deposit at my cake tasting, the final payment by my due date, and my cake was delivered at the desired time. She provided me the stand for my cake and added the fresh flowers on the cake when she arrived at my reception venue. I recommend them 100%. I can't wait to order cakes from them for our future family events. If you want popular, go to the big names in Charleston. If you want personal and professional, go to "The Cake Stand." Oh...and by the way, their prices are wonderful.
I'm so glad the Cake Stand was recommended to me, they were a great choice. They are a family run business, super nice, and made the whole process very easy for me. The cake they...

d be cupcakes, which was more in keeping with our “help yourselves” backyard bbq feel we were going for.
We were able to choose how many types of cake we wanted and which frostings for each type of cake and they were all delicious! They also had a huge cupcake stand that we rented for a very reasonable price to display all of the delicious cupcakes. They delivered and setup everything on the morning before the wedding. Overall we were very happy with the Cake Stand!
We loved our cake! The top two tiers were carrot cake flavored, which was delicious! And, the design of the cake was exactly as I wanted it. Thank you!!!
