The Cake Studio

Not only does Katie have a lots of cake flavor options, but they are ALL AMAZING!!! She was so easy to work with (and a wonderful person in general), and her cake was fantastic!!! The artistry she put into it was clear as it was beautiful as well as delicious :)

Katie is the ultimate professional. No one does it better. Her customer service is unmatched. The cake was absolutely delicious and beautiful! Katie called the week of the wedding and wanted to make the cake 4 layers vs. 3 layers as she thought it would look better with the design. There was no extra charge. Katie knows what she is doing and can make any cake or design you want. She is very gifted! I loved her!

Do you want a cake that will truly wow your guests? Go with Katie! She uses fresh fruit in her fillings and has an amazing buttercream, with a beautiful pearlescent finish that isn't overly sweet. We had an extra 40-50 pieces of cake over our guest count, and every piece was gone. People raved about how good it was! Just know, Katie communicates best by text. Talk to her that way--she'll always respond. She's also great about getting you samples beyond your tasting in case you want to try a different flavor. Talk to her about your vision, send her pictures, and she'll nail the design! My cake was breathtaking! Highly recommend!

Katie was wonderful to work with and my cake was amazing.

Katie is so amazing. She created our dream cake for us at an affordable price. We had guests tell us that they ate 3 pieces because it was so good! She has multiple flavor options that she lets you taste test before you pick your final flavors and design. Definitely recommend!

Katie at The Cake Studio was really great to work with. A few words of advice, when you first start working with her, she’s not the most responsive but don’t let that steer you away, her work is beautiful and her cakes are absolutely delicious. She does prefer to communicate via text which helps if you’re someone who likes to have a paper trail of your conversations. As you get closer to your event, the communication increases and she has everything in order from what could have been a meeting you had months ago. The only reason I am not giving her the full 5 stars is because a very minor detail we discussed in the designing of our cake was missing. We discussed having little pearl dots on two of the layers but instead it was just flat. It wasn’t noticeable but because I knew it was supposed to be there, I was really the only person who knew it was missing. Definitely not a huge deal. All in all everything turned out wonderfully and I would absolutely use her again!

We had our wedding at Scioto Reserve Country Club and they work with The Cake Studio for their wedding cakes. At first we were skeptical since that was their main cake vendor, but after we did our cake tasting we were sold!!! Katie Koivisto with The Cake Studio is an amazing baker! She has multiple different flavors to choose from as well as cake styles. In addition to that, she is willing to customize anything that you would like. We loved so many of her flavors that we ended up going with 4 different flavors for our wedding (a different flavor for each tier of cake!) We chose Sophisticated Almond with fresh raspberries, Lemon cake with fresh blackberries, The Cassata cake with fresh strawberries, and her Signature cake with fresh raspberries. We met her at her house where she has a bakery in the lower level to finalize plans for our wedding cake and absolutely loved her! We had so many compliments on our cake after our wedding day! We definitely plan to order future cakes from her for other occasions! We highly recommend The Cake Studio for your wedding!

DELICIOUS! Our wedding was August 2017 and we are still getting compliments on how delicious our cake was. Katie was wonderful to work with and is very talented at making cake for all to enjoy. We got two types of cake for our wedding: red velvet and buckeye. Both turned out equally AMAZING! Katie is very organized, professional, and knowledgable, and we are looking forward to having some on our 1 year anniversary. We recommend anyone to get their wedding cake at The Cake Studio!

Katie makes delicious cakes, but I'm not sure it was worth the headache. In planning a wedding, communication is key. Katie was slow to respond to emails. She said she preferred texting. Was then slow to respond to text messages. The day of our wedding, the cake looked beautiful. But I am convinced that the almond cake we ordered was just vanilla. Not one guest I asked tasted almond. This was an important detail to me and I was pretty disappointed, especially after all the fuss with getting her to send answers to basic questions and correct our invoice to the correct flavors after repeating our order to her multiple times. I am always generous with reviews and it is hard for me to be negative here, but I can't in good faith recommend working with this vendor during an already stressful planning time.

The best decision I ever made. It was by chance I found this cake studio. I looked online for days for different cake designs and 'The Cake Studio' caught my eye. I loved their cake designs. When I met with Mercedes I knew instantly I wanted her to make my cake. I chose four different flavours and had an add-on cake and they made my dream's come true. I was very happy with the final designs and the layers. On my wedding day everything came out beautiful. Not only that, all the cakes were delightfully delicious. I recommend Mercedes highly , she's hard working and very professional and delights I pleasing her customers for any occasion. Don't hesitate, get your cake made today by Mercedes. You won't regret it.!!!

Katie is AMAZING!!! Cake was beautiful and delicious. She customized everything we were looking for and gave us some great ideas that we didn't even think of! Thanks Katie!

BEST CAKE EVER! I typically hate wedding cake so I was looking for a bakery that would really surprise me. Katie blew me away! She has a great variety of flavors, sure to please the pickiest of eaters! She is also very creative in her design! It was like our cake was a work of art! I can’t wait to go back next year and order another personal cake !

Katie was such a fun, energetic person to work with for our wedding cake. We absolutely loved her signature cake and it was absolutely beautiful She is amazing and confident in her process and quality of her cakes! We were so amazed. We can't wait until our anniversary because she makes you a new cake instead of freezing it for your 1 year!! All of our guests were absolutely amazed by her cake at our wedding. I HIGHLY recommend working with Katie! You won't regret it.

The cake for our wedding on 5/6/17 looked perfect and tasted delicious! We also used Katie for the grooms cake which also turned out amazing!

Katie did such a wonderful job on our cake! We fell in love when we sampled her Signature flavor- it's amazing! She was so easy to work with and made sure to customize the cake to match with our wedding. We still have a little bit of cake left from our wedding that was a week and a half ago and it's still delicious! The Cake Studio is highly recommended!

Katies cakes are delicious, there is no doubt about that! At first in the process she was a little hard to communicate with. After reading other reviews, I realized it wasn't just me and maybe she just knew her timeline so she wasnt worried. Later on in the process after we met for a face to face meeting, she was more quick to respond and really was a pleasure working with. I wanted 5 different cakes, my husband and I's cutting cake which was 2 layers, two 7 inch cakes and 2 "baby" cakes that were supposed to be between 4-5 inches that would sit on candle holders. I provided 4 of the cake stands. Katie came and set up 3 of the cakes but left the "baby" cakes off their stands so my bridesmaids had to put them on their selves and the cakes were much larger than requested and didn't fit the stands that she had in her possession prior to making the cakes.. my MOH also told me the top of one of my cakes looked like someone took off some of the icing(maybe this happened while transporting?) either way it looked terrible and she had to pull some greenery from my florals to cover it up. Overall, cake was delicious but was pretty disappointed she didnt finish the set up and left it for my girls to do, the cakes weren't the right size (didn't even appear much smaller than the 7 inch cakes which they were clearly supposed to be "baby" cakes), and icing was smudged on one of the top of cakes! Really expected more...

Katie did a great job with our cake - 3 tiers was just perfect for our needs - both a chocolate layer and her signature flavor. It was delicious and many guests commented on how beautiful it looked and how great it tasted.

My husband and I just finished the last piece of our top tier of cake after getting married last weekend, and I told him "when I think about our wedding for the rest off our life, I'm going to remember how amazing our cake was." We did a 5-tier cake with Strawberry Cassata and the Signature flavors, but substituted the layer of vanilla cake for almond cake in the Signature tiers because the almond cake was just so good at our tasting. The cake Katie designed for us was EXACTLY what I envisioned and it was so exciting to see it at our reception. Katie's buttercream frosting is the best frosting I have ever had (it's so smooth!). Even guests who do not eat cake (my MOH and MIL commented on how delicious and beautiful our cake was). Katie gives very generous portions at the tasting, too--which was so appreciated especially after a cake testing at a different vendor who gave such tiny samples you couldn't taste the flavors at all. Katie is extremely personable and was so fun to work with. She was very helpful and gave us a lot of advice--not only about the cake but also about other vendors. You can tell she loves her job and that she has a ton of experience. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Katie and the Cake Studio!!!

Katie was really great to work with. She listened to our ideas, showed us samples and pictures to help narrow down exactly what we wanted and had a variety of flavors to choose from. The reason I didn't give her 5 stars is because I wanted fresh flowers on my cake and I had bought them and had them delivered to my reception but they somehow didn't make it on the cake and it looked rather plain without them. Thankfully my mother noticed what happened and she and my now mother-in-law decorated the cake with the flowers themselves.

The cake was beautiful and exactly what I asked for! We had the signature cake, almond cake and lemon, all flavors were amazing!!!!! Katie was very friendly to work with! I suggested her to a friend and her cake was amazing too!

Working with Katie was so much fun and such a pleasure! She was easy to work with and let us do multiple tastings before we made a choice. She also had a lot of pictures of her cakes and had some really good ideas. The cake turned out amazing! I highly recommend using the cake studio!

Amazing cake! Our guests raved about our wedding cake and it was delicious! When we first met Katie, my husband and I told her the look and feel we were going for and on the spot she drew up a design that she thought we might like and we did! She made that initial sketch a reality and we were so happy with how the cake turned out. She's very creative and is great at what she does! The only thing I worried about with her was the lack of communication. A month before the wedding I contacted her to finalize details and order a cake sample. I did not hear back from her until I called her 2 weeks after my initial attempt to contact her. As a bride in the midst of wedding planning, that was a bit stressful, but I wasn't too terribly stressed because I was already aware of communication issues from other brides who had worked with Katie. As long as you are prepared for that it's not really a huge deal. Also, as the wedding day approached, she was easier to get a hold of and was very responsive. Just trust she knows her own timeline and that she will get the job done for you wonderfully!

Katie is amazing! The cake she designed for us was just perfect; it looked great and was so delicious. The cake fit into our theme and all of our guests loved it. In addition to making the perfect cake, Katie was a pleasure to work with. She communicated promptly and made sure we had no concerns. I would definitely work with her again and can confidently recommend her to anyone who wants a perfect cake; you will be in good hands!

We used Katie for our 10/31/15 wedding and were very pleased. We had a small two-tier 'sweetheart' cake for us to cut and then cupcakes for our guests. We did four different flavors of cupcakes and they were all delicious - I think the coffee lovers was our absolute favorite though. Would highly recommend this vendor - found that texting was the best way to communicate with Katie after our initial consultation.

Katie made our 4-tier wedding cake for our 10/17/15 wedding at The Columbus Athenaeum. The cake was delicious, and we received multiple compliments on the design and the flavors (strawberry cassata and cookies and cream). We struggled with communication with Katie. When we sent our $100 deposit, it was cashed, but we never received a contract. Once we got it all straightened out, it then became difficult to schedule a time to meet with Katie and design the cake. Once we had our final guest count, I emailed Katie with our count and follow up questions (how many tiers would you suggest, please confirm the colors and design, here is the time to deliver, etc) and got no response. Katie then texted me asking for all that same information and also noted that she didn't have any notes that a deposit had been received. We felt the price of Katie's cakes were absolutely wonderful. But we constantly felt nervous that something was going to go wrong simply because we felt there was an opportunity for Katie to forget about something specific we discussed. It may have just be a lack of organization this year, or it could be a completely isolated experience. Overall, we thought the cake turned out great (and we can't wait to eat our top layer in a year). We just wish it had been a bit of a smoother process.

Katie was great to work with. Katie designed our wedding cake at the tasting. The cake tasted amazing. She also made the grooms cake which was a Cincinnati Reds baseball hat. That was also amazing. She was a pleasure to work with. All of our wedding guest told us how good the cake was. Thank You Katie!!!

We would highly recommend The Cake Studio! Katie was so easy to work with, and helped us design a beautiful wedding cake that went with the theme of our wedding. Her cake is delicious, and the buttercream icing is amazing! We received many compliments about our cake from our guests, and it looks beautiful in our wedding pictures.

Our cake was amazing! We ordered a 5 tier cake, each layer with a different flavor. The cake looked outstanding with purple colored candy flowers that everyone thought were real because they looked so realistic! We had non stop compliments from our guests. We couldn't have asked for more delicious cake!

I ordered my cake from Katie for my summer wedding. I found her business through WeddingWire.com and I fell in love with her cake photos from her website. She was very quick to get back to me about my inquiry and when we sat down to design my wedding cake, it was a breeze! Her prices are a bit expensive but she offers ways to fit your budget. On my wedding day, I absolutely loved my wedding cake!! It was very pretty and delicious. On the down side.. a $100 deposit was required for using her cake stand. I was told once her cake stand was returned to her, she would refund the $100. Well, on my wedding day there wasn't a cake stand at all which was very disappointing. After contacting her several times about my refund, a $100 check was mailed but it was bit of a hassle getting my money back.

I had an appointment with her that went really well. We came up with a great idea and she said she'd call back soon with a quote. I call back a few weeks later and she doesn't answer. I leave a voicemail. I do this about 4 more times. She never calls back and I haven't heard from her since the appointment. Don't waste your time with someone who isn't capable of following up or returning a call. There's a good chance she will forget the cake on your wedding day.

Katie made us the most beautiful and most delicious cake. It was divine. She also made an amazing donut tower for our Groom's Cake, which was adorable for our Brunch wedding. She's fantastic!!

We got married at Scioto Reserve Country Club and they referred us to Katie at the Cake Studio for our wedding cake. Katie is super easy to work with, listens to her customers and is extremely talented at baking cakes and decorating them. Our wedding cake was the most beautiful cake I have ever seen and it was absolutely delicious! I recommend The Cake Studio to everyone now!

The Cake Studio was our reception venue’s top preferred baker, and from the moment we met with Katie, we knew exactly why! Katie was so wonderful to work with. At our initial meeting, she sat down with us, showed us her portfolio of cakes, and even provided us with a few samples of some of the flavors she offers! We chose a 4-tiered decorated cake and a sheet cake to accommodate all 200+ guests, 5 flavors in total, and our guests could not stop raving about our cake!! So many family and friends said that it was the best cake they had ever had. Not to mention our 4-tiered decorated cake was absolutely beautiful! She matched our vision completely. She is such a talented baker AND cake designer! My only complaint is that there were times where I would email or text Katie and would not hear back for several weeks, if at all. We wanted to see if we could sample a flavor that we had not tasted at our initial tasting, but she never got back to us. I would have preferred a little more communication, but honestly, at the end of the day, it didn’t matter, as our cakes were incredible! We were beyond impressed with them, especially our 4-tiered decorated cake!! I would definitely recommend The Cake Studio!

Kate at the cake studio is amazing! If you want a great tasting cake Katie is your girl! Everyone had to know where we got the cake because "it doesn't taste like wedding cake". She put personalized touches in my cake as well as made it look beautiful! The only reason there is no 5 is that Katie is a busy women, which makes communication in the beginning a little difficult! But no worries once she has signed to do your cake you are in great hands! Thank You Katie!

Katie Koivisto is amazing!! We planned our wedding very last minute and she was able to make a beautiful centerpiece for our day!! I was worried I would not be able to afford The Cake Studio because their work is so amazing but I compared pricing to Giant Eagle and they were just $50 less!! The cake was so beautiful we did not want to cut into it but we were glad we did! The signature cake is to die for but the buckeye and lemon-lemon strawberry were amazing! I only had 50 guest but we ordered a larger cake to serve 100 and we had guest fighting over every crumb! I can't wait to eat our anniversary tier and might just order one next year. Amazing beautiful cakes and wonderful small business! We were so happy!

I've tried for several months to get in contact with The Cake Studio to try and arrange a cake for my January wedding. I've sent emails, left a voicemail, and sent a facebook message and I've never received a reply to any form of communication. I kept trying because my fiancé and I had tried the cake at a bridal show and it was by far the best. My wedding is two months out and I can't wait any longer. If you don't have capacity or aren't interested for some reason, politely declining would be appropriate. Right now the only message being put out is that you're either not interested in doing business or at least clearly not interested in my business.

My cake was absolutely amazing! I had switched up the game plan on her but she rolled with it and even had some great suggestions on how to make it even better. The cake was definitely a highlight of my wedding, it was absolutely gorgeous and tasted even better. All of the leftovers were gobbled up the next day. So easy to work with! If I could give her 6 stars, I would.

Our venue was at Scioto Reserve Country Club who worked with Katie from The Cake Studio to make our cake. We did not ever get to meet Katie in person, but when we did communicate with her in phone and in person she was the sweetest! Our wedding coordinator sent over our order sheet to Katie and took care of all of the details for us. The cake looked perfect, exactly how she had shown in her brochure. As far as the taste, it was incredible! We picked four tiers: (1) the Signature (half chocolate, half vanilla), (2) Buckeye Celebration (peanut butter & chocolate), (3) Cassata (strawberries, cream, & vanilla), and (4) the lemon cake. I regret not getting a chance to try #2 and 3, but we ate #1 and it was perfect. So excited to eat #4 next year! We definitely recommend the cakes from The Cake Studio.

We used The Cake Studio for our Columbus wedding and could not be happier with the outcome. Katie was so easy to work with and kept everything very simple and straightforward. We met on two occasions, the first was to try the cake and develop a cake design and the second was to finalize last minute details. We had an idea of how we wanted the cake to look and Katie took that and ran with it. She is truly a talented baker. The cake looked flawless once it arrived at the venue and guests could not stop commenting on how beautiful it looked. We had multiple guests comment that it was the absolute best wedding cake they have ever tasted. I recommend getting her signature flavor. You won’t be disappointed with this. It’s perfect because it has both vanilla and chocolate cake in every piece and the chocolate ganache and raspberry filling in the middle is divine. Not to mention that the buttercream frosting was one of the best I have even tasted. We had a large guest count so Katie also made “kitchen cakes” to help keep our costs down. She was great to work with and I cannot wait to sample another cake from her.

Katie was wonderful to work with, she designed the cake to match the sash of my dress which was very intricate and detailed. I was worried it wouldn't come out as well as it did, I was so impressed - she did an amazing job! The cake was absolutely delicious!!

Many compliments on the quality of our cake. It was delicious and the design was exactly what I had asked for. They did an excellent job. My only minor complaint was the lack of communication, I sent a few e-mails and tried to schedule a special tasting to try a flavor that was not provided during our initial consult at Scioto Reserve Country Club and they never responded to my request. We ordered the flavor anyway and it exceeded our expectations. I just would have preferred a little more communication.

Katie of The Cake Studio is amazing! She is very personable and pleasant and her cake melts in your mouth. Katie provides many different flavors and designs and is more than willing to work with couples in creating their perfect wedding cake. Our cake was absolutely stunning and we truly appreciated Katie's attention to detail in making it. We had french vanilla with fresh strawberries, lemon with fresh raspberries, and cinnamon carrot cake for our guests and we got rave reviews from our families and friends. It was delicious and I can't wait to eat our top layer next year on our anniversary!

communication was difficult with Katie. she was not very timely responding emails or voicemails, but the cake was delicious and the design was more that we could have imaged.

The cake was great! It was beautiful and exactly how I wanted it. Communication was a little difficult. It was hard to email or call and get a timely response back. I was disappointed in our anniversary cake. Katie said we could have whatever kind of cake we wanted so we chose one with chocolate and raspberry filling. Since I couldn't wait to have a piece, I broke tradition and cut into our anniversary cake when we returned from our honeymoon. I was extremely disappointed to find it was not the cake and filling I had asked for. It was again hard to contact her about it to have her fix it. I'm glad I was able to catch the mistake so it can hopefully be fixed. I imagine if I had waited a year to find this out I would have been even more upset.

Our wedding cake was beautiful, simple and elegant, just the way I wanted it. The cake was delicious – the cake was moist and the frosting was light with just the right amount of sweetness. She also designed our grooms cake which turned out awesome and for an excellent price!

We actually didn't look for a wedding cake place since Scioto Reserve includes a cake from here in their pricing, but I was impressed with the options. I can't say I thought the icing was all that great on any of their cakes, and I'm a HUGE icing person but their list of options was long! We had a couple different layers and in one I chose oreo which was a huge hit with our crowd since it had both white and chocolate cake with a light middle mouse. I would just suggest if you are going to go with this place make sure you taste test everything and that you know exactly what you are getting because there were only a few flavors I liked personally.

I really loved The Cake Studio! I got to sample some of the cakes to order it was really hard to choose. My husband and I ended up with 4 different flavors in our wedding cake! The best part of it was that the cake was included in our venue cost.

The Cake Studio was included as part of our package at the wedding venue we picked, Scioto Reserve Country Club. Katie was wonderful to work with. I wanted something a little different then what the design choices were that they gave us to pick from (which was 30 beautiful designs). I asked if we could combine two of the designs to make a cake unique to us. Katie did just that and even commented to us on how great it turned out using the two designs. The cake was beautiful and so delicious!! Our guests raved on how great the cake was. The flavors we chose were: Signature White, Buckeye and Lemon. Our guests said the fillings within each layer were awesome as well. My only complaint is that the cake was SO GOOD that we didn’t have any extra to take home at the end of the night! :) We can’t wait to eat the Chocolate Top Layer Cake for our anniversary! Thank you Katie for an amazingly beautiful and equally delicious cake!!

Delicious. A great value.

Katie makes AMAZING cakes. When we first met with Katie, she served us each a piece of her delicious signature cake and showed us pictures of cakes she had made in the past. Katie was very creative and helped us design our dream cake. Our cake was beautiful! It looked exactly as Katie had designed it. The icing was so soft and not too sweet. We had the signature cake (moist French Vanilla and Milk Chocolate cakes are filled with fresh raspberries and chocolate ganache iced in Meringue Buttercream) and the buckeye cake (Peanut butter cake or Milk chocolate cake is filled with chocolate ganache and Reese’s peanut butter cups.) All of our guests mentioned how delicious the cake was. We highly recommend the Cake Studio!

The cake studio was included as part of my package at my wedding venue (Scioto Reserve Country Club) and now I know why the venue choose Katie Koivisto. Katie was wonderful to work with. I didn't want something off the chooses they gave us and Katie worked with me to make sure my cake was what I wanted. The cake turned out exactly what I was looking for and more. Everyone commented on how pretty the cake was. The cake was moist and prefect to what flavors we choose. Everyone loved the flavors we had which was the signature, buckeye, and red velvet. I would definatly reccommend Katie for your wedding cake! She is great at what she does!!!

Our wedding cake was amazing!! Our venue had 2 cake companies they include in the package and we chose Katie with The Cake Studio. The cake was amazing at the tasting and even though my now husband could not attend, she packed him up a to go box. The only negative I had is Katie is a little hard to get a hold of but I think it is because she is so busy with cakes. I was nervous at first because I changed the color of my bridesmaid dresses and needed to change the ribbon color on the cake. I had emailed Katie with the changes. When we talked the week before the wedding she still had the old color of ribbon down so we got that all straightened out before it was too late :) The day of, our cake looked just like the sketch and was absolutely perfect and the right color! Everyone raved about the cake and all the flavors.

The cake was delicious and beautiful! I cannot wait to dig into the top layer for our first anniversary!

Katie was great we met with her once and she got what we wanted right away since we did not want a traditional cake. We saw our cake on our day and were so surprised and pleased it tasted great as well.

I admit that I had heard good things about the Cake Studio prior to my Wedding! I have to say that My wedding cake blew me away! It was moist, flavorful and exactly matched the dream cake I had imagined! Out of town guests asked for the name of the "baker...." It was THAT good!
