The Chocolate Rose

The Chocolate rose was amazing for our 9/28 wedding. Vanessa was very organized and easy to work with. She did a great job setting up the desserts, and they all went so quickly. Our guests loved them!!!! We did a dessert table, so guests could grab them and mingle. It was such a great idea!

Vanessa made us an absolutely exquisite gluten free cake - making sure we didn't have to sacrifice taste or style at all. We went with her Pink Velvet recipe, which was delicious and beautiful. She did amazing loose rosettes and brush embroidery, and customized the color of the buttercream to match my dress. The cake was gorgeous AND delicious. Not to mention she delivered it all on a super short timeline since we couldn't make it to the Cape until just a few weeks before our wedding for the tasting! Vanessa was great, her shop is beautiful, and her cakes are to die for.

As a detail-oriented, hard-to-please culinary professional, a lot of research went into selecting the pastry chef for my daughter’s September wedding. After reading many online accolades for “The Chocolate Rose,” and viewing impressive confections on its website, we scheduled a tasting with pasty chef, Vanessa, and looked no further. Vanessa’s desserts are professionally crafted, beautifully presented, and made with fresh, quality ingredients. We wanted elegant, European-style pastries, and she offered just what we were looking for, although she creates a great variety of selections. On the big, day, we could not have been more pleased with everything. Vanessa had communicated with the venue and florist in advance, and she and her team seamlessly executed a stunning dessert table, their presence going completely unnoticed, as guests dined. (To assure their finest quality and correct temperature, the desserts are delivered and displayed just prior to serving time.) Everything was absolutely correct, beautifully presented, styled just as we’d requested, and simply delicious—a perfect execution! While she is extremely busy and can sometimes leave you wondering a bit, she somehow keeps track of it all and gets it right—trust her! We recommend “The Chocolate Rose” without hesitation, and look forward to calling upon Vanessa for our next occasion.

Vanessa was fantastic! My fiancé and I knew we didn’t want a cake for our wedding day (we both don’t really like it) so we decided on a dessert table. Vanessa was great! We sampled a nice assortment and then based on our responses and what our guests like she composed what would do well. SHE WAS SPOT ON!!! Everyone loves all the little desserts!!! She is very responsive, personable, even the display was adorable!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!!!

Vanessa was so easy to work with!! I had to do a speciality gluten free cake and it didnt taste gluten free at all. She walked my fiance and I through every detail down to the cake platter. The Chocolate Rose is a vendor I will highly recommend to my friends and family for future brides/ grooms !

Chocolate Rose is the best! Our wedding cake, bridal shower cake and desserts were delicious! Vanessa and her team are easy to work with and very professional. Our cake was absolutely perfect and exactly what we wanted. We look forward to our one year anniversary cake and working with them again! Thank you!

It was a pleasure working with The Chocolate Rose. They were very accomadating with all requests and the wedding cake was beautiful and delicious, as were the pastries. Couldn't have asked for anything better. Thank you Vanessa and team!!!!

Vanessa and her team did an amazing job crafting our wedding cake! The Chocolate Rose exceeded all of our expectations in more. The 3 tiered cake was absolutely stunning and our guests loved all of the flavors built into the cake. The presentation from the table linen and stand matched perfectly to our color scheme. We could not be happier! Highly recommend Vanessa and The Chocolate Rose to make your flavorful dreams come true!

The Chocolate Rose was exactly what I was looking for. Stylish, elegant cakes that taste as good as they look. Vanessa sat down with us prior to the wedding to go over the details of what we wanted and then truly blew us away with what she came up with. The cakes aren't overly sweet, but pack flavor and freshness. They even delivered to our venue off Cape (about 2hrs away)! I highly recommend and will definitely be using them again for future events.

My fiancé and I HIGHLY recommend Vanessa. Our cake was beautiful and delicious! She has so many flavors to choose from and she sends you home with extra cake to try after the tasting. She even includes a fresh "top tier" cake in her wedding packages so that you don't have to eat frozen cake on your anniversary.

For our wedding we had a sweets table instead of a cake. Vanessa did an amazing job incorporating our theme into the sweets table. It looked pretty and everything tasted amazing.

We are so glad that we were referred to Vanessa by my brother. He said she was one of the best vendors at my niece's wedding, and that we should contact her early in our planning. I'm so happy we got that recommendation! Vanessa at the Chocolate Rose was incredibly professional, accommodating, and sincerely interested in providing the most beautiful and delicious cake for my daughter's wedding, and boy - did she deliver! The cake was GORGEOUS! and it was equally DELICIOUS! I'm so glad we have beautiful photos of the wedding cake, because it is definitely something we will want to remember always, as an important part of our daughter's beautiful day. Thanks Vanessa!

Vanessa was amazing!!! From start to finish. We had one meeting with her and from there she could put together the perfect display based upon us and our theme!! She incorporated both of our family heritages in the display and it was amazing! Most of the cupcakes were gone by the end of the night and our guests are still talking about how delicious they were! You will not be disappointed! Thank you Vanessa!!!! Mr. & Mrs. Darryn Frye

The cake was exceptional! The flavor, the design, everything!!!

If there was anything we were NOT concerned about the day of our wedding, it was our dessert table! From start to finish our experience with Vanessa and the Chocolate rose was phenomenal! Vanessa was able to execute the most incredible dessert table for our wedding guests, that included all of the fine details of our wedding, all while including an intimate and delicious cheesecake just for the groom and I to share together. Right from our initial meeting it was clear Vanessa was very attentive to detail, professional, and an absolute master in the pastry industry! Her recommendations, creativity, and passion for what she does made our vision for our dessert table come to life! Our wedding guests are STILL talking about the quality and the presentation of our desserts! We are so happy that we were recommended to use The Chocolate Rose as a vendor, and we would 100% pass that recommendation on!

The Chocolate Rose was amazing!! We used them for our wedding cake and our favors for our wedding. Their work and attention to detail was incredible! The cake was exactly what I wanted - simple, elegant, all white, and so delicious!! For favors we had individual black and white cookies that the Chocolate Rose boxed and packaged using boxes we provided and stickers they made that went perfectly with our wedding theme!

Vanessa and her team were wonderful to work with for our wedding this past June. The Chocolate Rose came highly recommended from The Knot, from there we set up a planning meeting and everything they had to offer WOW'ed me! From the cake, to the desserts and pastries as well as the overall planning and execution. If you are looking for a high end experience, delicious sweets, beautiful presentation and overall great price look no further than Vanessa and The Chocolate Rose!

Vanessa is the most talented baker. Not only are her cakes delicious and magnificent looking, her desserts are breathtaking and amazing too. She made the sweetest part of the wedding the most fun to choose. Our guests still talk about the dessert table she created for us and the delicious wedding cake. Don't look any further if you are searching for a baker for your event. I wish I could post how stunning the cake and the desserts were. Vanessa listens and takes the time to create a one of kind creation. She is a true professional and a delight to work with!!!

We loved our wedding cake and the dessert table was a total hit! Vanessa really put in the extra time to make the dessert table look like a work of art. Everything was extremely delicious. We will definitely use The Chocolate Rose again in the future!

Vanessa did a fabulous job with our 4th of July wedding cupcake display. It looked amazing and everyone loved the cupcakes- we ate them ALL! Vanessa is a pleasure to work with and a fabulous baker!

Vanessa and the Chocolate Rose were a pleasure to work with on our big day! We had a small wedding (about 40 people) on the cape and Vanessa was able to accommodate us when other vendors could not. We had a dessert bar at the wedding - guests loved it (s'mores were the top hit!). We also added to our order the week of the wedding and again, the Chocolate Rose made it happen. Highly recommend!

We were so happy with Vanessa from the Chocolate Rose, from the planning process to the cake delivery, she made everything very simple for us (and gives VERY generous portions for cake tasting--which is a delightful treat). During our initial meeting, I could tell that Vanessa was truly focused on creating a cake that captures more than just my pinterest pins and asked about the atmosphere we hoped to create at our wedding, inspiration from my dress, and our unique styles--and we were very happy with her prices, as well. She worked seamlessly with our florist to create a stunning 4-tiered semi-naked cake with flecks of gold leaf and three delicious flavors (because we couldn't choose just one). Her cake was so beautiful, its photo got its own page in our wedding album.

My wedding cake was beautiful and delicious !! My guests were amazed at the detail ...Vanessa saw my vision and made it happen...she and her crew are amazing!! Also the cupcakes were fabulous!! Will recommend in a heart beat!! She added to my rustic wedding!!

Our wedding cake was fantastic. We had 2 flavors: lemon and chocolate-raspberry combined in semi frosted butter cream cake. We went with sugar flowers and leaves for artistic touch! Vanessa was extremely professional, friendly and approachable. I enjoyed tastings before and all the details that Vanessa brought in terms of flavors, frosting and linen. Unlike many individual vendors, the chocolate rose provides a great online booking and payment system! Overall, we were quite glad to have picked the chocolate rose for our special day.

Very professional to work with and the new location is beautiful! We had the most amazing and delicious cake for our very special day, thank you Chocolate Rose!

We are so thankful that The Chocolate Rose was able to make our daughters wedding cake! It was so beautiful and delicious, beyond our expectations! When I met Vanessa and smelled her amazing bakery, I knew I was in the right place. The hardest part was choosing the flavors for the cake. So we chose 4! One for each layer. Many of Our guest came up to me during the reception and asked who “did the cake”. Best wedding cake ever❤️ Plus we had black and white cookie favors for each guest to take home. They were packaged so meticulous and were amazing! Thanks Vanessa to you and your staff for a beautiful sweet ending to the wedding!

Beautiful and Delicious and Organized! Everything was planned via email for our intimate, destination wedding. The cake was exactly as we hoped.

Holy Crap!!! I am beyond impressed with Vanessa's work! Our cake and dessert table was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we were looking for! She took the time to talk about our vision and pair her work with what we were looking for! Everyone raved about how good the desserts were and were so impressed! We love her!

Vanessa from the Chocolate Rose does amazing work! We booked her to do a cupcake display for our wedding and she executed everything perfectly. We opted to have 5 flavors with various decorative designs. Vanessa was able to decorate our cupcakes perfectly in line with our nautical themed wedding, even matching the frosting to our color palette. She also made us a beautiful cutting cake (which we enjoyed the next day) that was the exactly what we wanted. Vanessa also did our display setup and it was flawless. She pulled in nautical details to complement the venue and the cupcakes that far exceeded my expectations. Our guests thought everything looked perfect and tasted delicious (the 11 dozen cupcakes we ordered were gone!) and I am so glad that we used the Chocolate Rose for our wedding day. Highly recommend to those having a cape cod wedding!

Vanessa was fantastic! Our cake was exactly what we wanted, and delicious! There are so many options to choose from (Try the lemon cake!) Thank you again!

We just had our wedding last night and the cake was stunning and tasted delicious! Vanessa is great to work with and was able to capture everything I wanted in my cake. She is so talented!

Vanessa at the Chocolate Rose was everything I could have asked for and more! I was planning a wedding in MA from TX and she was SUPER helpful with scheduling and keeping me in the loop from so far away. I was absolutely blown away with my cake! It was not only delicious, but gorgeous to look at! I highly recommend The Chocolate Rose!

Absolutely beautiful, delicious gluten free cake! From the tasting, to the design process, to the final product, Vanessa delivered! She also did the deserts for my bridal shower (all gluten free), which were fantastic! None of my guests could tell the difference. Whether you have allergies or not, Vanessa will make all of your cake dreams come true!!

We could not have been happier with the outcome of our wedding cake! If there were more stars to give, we would gladly give Chocolate Rose more! Vanessa was a delight in helping us pick out the cake size and flavors. Vanessa was also so kind when helping us design our cake and she did such a great job at bringing all of our visions to life. At the tasting, we knew right away that our guests would fight over it. When we saw the cake on our wedding day we were so pleased, we felt that this was one of the best features at our venue! We had a small wedding, (around 70 guest) and we literally heard from everyone how much they liked the cake. Many of them told us that they had to have multiple pieces of cake because every flavor was so delicious. Some even asked if there was any more cake hidden away and they were surprised when they found out that the cake was Gluten Free. Our flavors were Coconut Rum, Black Forest and Strawberry Almond so not just one lousy Gluten Free flavor. We will definitely go back for not just cakes but all things Vanessa makes, for our next events. She is truly amazing and so easy to work with. We won't hesitate to recommend The Chocolate Rose to any of our friends not only for a wedding but for any special occasion!

Super easy to work with and delicious desserts!

As soon as my daughter and I met Vanessa from Chocolate Rose we knew she was the one that would create a special dessert table for my daughter’s wedding. My daughter got married this past weekend (10/28/2017) and the dessert table was just amazing. Vanessa is a genius at creating a table design that was elegant, gorgeous and every dessert was absolutely beautiful and delicious. The guests thought the entire display was exquisite and we got some many compliments. It was perfect, had the wow factor and well beyond what we expected..

Vanessa was great to work with. She really listened to what we wanted and totally delivered. The cake was gorgeous and delicious!

Vanessa of The Chocolate Rose was a dream to work with. Her cake flavors are creative and delicious. We gave her an idea of what we were looking for in our wedding cake and she brought it to life. Our cake was elegant but above all tasted incredible! And she offers a fresh cake for your anniversary so you don't have to eat year old, frozen cake! We enjoyed every interaction we had with Vanessa and would highly recommend The Chocolate Rose to everyone!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Vanessa and the Chocolate Rose were recommended by our venue and we couldn't be more happy with the results! We had a 100 person wedding with a 3 tier cake and went with a different flavor per tier (chocolate raspberry, chocolate champagne mousse, and my favorite- the fireside favorite aka s'mores). The tasting was lovely and super fun as I went with my teenage cousins since my fiancé wasn't able to make it. She executed my cake requests beautifully and the end result was just stunning. We went with a darker grey icing with gold accents and she was super willing to go along with this more non-traditional request (and figure out how to make it taste great). Added bonus for Instagram loving people- Vanessa keeps her feed up to date so you are able to see her most recent creations through your whole planning process. Would HIGHLY recommend the Chocolate Rose to future couples!

Absolutely OUTSTANDING! Vanessa spent a lot of time with my husband and me discussing the design for our wedding cake and was very communicative during the whole process. It was absolutely gorgeous - just as I had imagined! We had 3 different cakes for the three tiers: pink velvet, mudslide, and lemon, all with a perfect buttercream frosting. Our guests were overwhelmed with how beautiful and delectable the cake was. Very impressive!

I'm gluten free, so I know how hard it is to make a delicious gf cake...and Vanessa did it! None of my guests could tell and everyone said it was amazing. Vanessa made an original design on our cake, incorporating our wedding invitation design. It was beautiful, tasty, and she was wonderful to work with.

Vanessa did an amazing job with everything. The desserts were all delicious and the display was beautiful. We did a spread of different mini desserts for our wedding and everyone loved it. She was very easy to work with and great at helping us plan and decide on everything. We are from out of state but I am sure that we will be calling her again when it's time for an anniversary celebration on The Cape!!

Vanessa's work was absolutely gorgeous AND delicious! She was able to give us the most for our budget and was so incredibly professional. Vanessa is so sweet and she was able to work with our dietary restrictions as well. The Chocolate Rose will definitely stay in my contacts for our next big event.

We love working with The Chocolate Rose! They are literally "the sweetest part of event planning"!! Vanessa and her team are incredibly talented, creative and thoughtful. With an extensive list of flavors, there is something for everyone. After one of our weddings, I planned on sharing the extra cupcakes with my family. But sitting in Cape Cod traffic on the way home, I ended up eating them on the way! Oops! The Chocolate Rose is simply irresistible! ~ Elegant Aura

The Chocolate Rose was amazing, very accommodating and the BEST deserts we've ever had. Vanessa asked all the right questions before our wedding and the table with our cake and petite pastries was breathtaking! She followed our wedding theme but best of all the guests are still raving about her creations 2 months later! I can't wait to have a party so that I can order more! I have and will continue to recommend the Chocolate Rose to everyone.

Vanessa. Is. Amazing. And so are her cakes! She was so patient with us throughout our planning process; she set up a second tasting for us when we couldn't decide on our final flavor, she made a second gluten free cake specifically for my sister at the wedding, and when I couldn't find the right pedestal, she let me rent her most beautiful one! Not to mention, she makes the most delicious cake I have ever tasted. Five stars across the board- book her for your event and you will not be disappointed!

Met Vanessa last week, she was wonderful and accommodating as well as creative! I showed her my dream cake and she made it even better, definitely recommend her!

Vanessa was able to execute our nautical vision real and wonderful! The guests gasped when they saw it ... simply gorgeous and memorable. Not only was it esthetically exquisite, but it tasted heavenly too! I would highly recommend Vanessa to design and create a wonderful and special cake for your special day to make it complete ... you won't be sorry but grateful as we were!

We had such a great experience with The Chocolate Rose. She has so many cake flavors and we got to taste whichever ones we wanted and the sample size was huge! And we got to keep the leftovers! All of the favors were absolutely delicious. She created a beautiful wedding cake for our wedding. I will definitely contact The Chocolate Rose for any of our cake or bakery needs in the future.

Once my mother got her hands on the menu options that Vanessa offered for wedding desserts, we knew that we were going to work with her. The options are endless and she makes things so customizable. Vanessa typically recommends 5-7 items for a dessert table and we ended up going with 12! It's just so yummy! She also set up such a beautiful display at our wedding -the guests couldn't get enough!

Vanessa is a treasure. She's such a joy to work with! From the very first meeting with her, we instantly hit it off. She's kind, knowledgeable and engaging. She listened to our ideas but more importantly got to know us as a couple-- what made us special, what was unique to our relationship. We came in with pictures of other cakes that we liked, but had other ideas we wanted to incorporate and did not know how. We're archaeologists (we met on an archaeological dig) so we wanted to include that in our special day. She took that and ran with it, giving us all sorts of ideas of unique ways to pay tribute to our profession and our story. Her suggestions were things I would never have thought of on my own, but would make our day uniquely us. She never let us settle for something we had just seen on Pinterest. She is an artist and really takes the time and energy to make the perfect cake for each couple. I was really nervous about the final outcome of the cake, as I was unsure how it would all come together (we'd never seen anything like it, after all-- how many archaeologist cakes are there?) but it was better than we ever could have imagined. It came out better than perfect. Her craftmanship and attention to detail was astounding. We gave her a really complicated image to replicate, in a small and cramped space, and she executed it flawlessly. We couldn't believe it! It was the perfect centerpiece and everyone couldn't stop saying how amazing it was. She also provided us with archaeology themed cookies to accent our tea bar, and those were fabulous as well. We couldn't have asked for a better treat! And, to top it all off, Vanessa's cakes are HANDS DOWN the best cakes we have ever had. The unique and expertly crafted flavors are so yummy and moist. I could quite literally eat her cakes (and cookies) for the rest of my life and be so happy doing it. Her frostings are so flavorful and rich, but you won't ever feel overladen with sugar and sweetness.

Vanessa at the Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe was great to work with for our wedding cake. She was very dedicated to making my husband and my vision come true for our perfect wedding cake. Our guests all loved the way our cake looked and tasted. I would absolutely recommend The Chocolate Rose Cake shoppe to anyone who wants a wonderful experience picking the perfect cake or treat for their wedding or event!

I highly recommend the Chocolate Rose. We decided on cupcakes for our wedding and they were absolutely beautiful and delicious! There are so many wonderful flavors to choose from and Vanessa is fantastic.

The Chocolate Rose came highly recommended to me by the Popponeseset Inn, and what a great recommendation it was! We began planning our Cape Cod wedding from half way across the country, which was not an easy task, and Vanessa immediately put us at ease. She was informative, helpful, and extremely kind. We were impressed with her experience and knowledge in the "industry." Vanessa is not just a baker. She is truly an artist who helped create a gorgeous, unique, and tasty cake that exceeded our expectations. She has creative ideas and was beautifully skilled at her craft. Our cake was three tiered and each layer was something different and deliciously exciting. Guests were raving about all the different flavors and enjoyed sampling each kind. She even made a yummy gluten free cake for guests who had a GF allergy. She was really able to showcase her versatile style! We cannot wait to eat our wedding cake all over again on our first anniversary, as Vanessa bakes a fresh cake, free of charge, for us to enjoy in a years time. I recommend Vanessa without reservation!

I had been looking forward to our cake since the taste testing. It was as good as I remembered. Vanessa was great to work with and made the cake look just how we wanted it to. It was a great size and bigger than I expected (we had it for 75 people since we got a sheet cake for 50 to provide a different flavor and save money). Even though the contract had the sizes, I was nervous it would be small. We were lucky to even have some left over to take home with us. She also worked with us to provide some cookies to help out with our traditional Pittsburgh Cookie table. Everything came out great.

I highly recommend using Vanessa! She brought my vision to life and we got SO many compliments on the cake. She went above and beyond and I couldn't be happier with the result! She helped make my wedding the best day ever. THANK YOU!!

The Chocolate Rose is fantastic! Vanessa is easy to work with and extremely accommodating. Guests from our wedding are still talking about how amazing our cake was, from the display to the taste. I would highly recommend the Chocolate Rose bakery to anyone looking for a high quality wedding cake!

I am so happy I found Vanessa at the chocolate rose. I knew what I wanted for my wedding day dessert table but I didn't know how to make it happen. Luckily, this was Vanessa's speciality and she perfectly brought my vision to life. Not only was the array beautiful and a perfect compliment to my wedding decor but everything was also so yummy :) I met with her to sample some desserts and talk about what I wanted, and after that she completely took the reins and I didn't have to worry about a thing! She coordinated with the venue for setting up and did so very discretely and without an issue. All of my guests thought it was such a cool idea to do a dessert table instead of everyone getting the same piece of cake. So thank you Vanessa- you helped make my day perfect and I would love to work with you again.

Vanessa's passion and excitement is contagious and is reflected in each of her cakes and pastry items! She is attentive, caring, and her attention to detail is second to none! Be prepared to be blown away by her talent as she makes the process from sketch to conception absolutely seamless! Most importantly, the edible works of art she creates are the best you will ever taste!

Vanessa was phenomenal to work with. She is incredibly passionate about her business - from the design of the wedding cake to the taste - she 100% knows desserts. After meeting her in person, I became more and more excited about our wedding cake and our surprise dessert table because she was incredibly invested in every detail of our wedding. Vanessa wanted to ensure that the deisgn of the cake and desserts tied in perfectly to the theme of our wedding. The cake was beyond gorgeous (tasted insanely delicious!) and the dessert table was everything I could have imagined. Thank you, thank you, thank you for putting our vision to life!

Wow, we had an all around wonderful experience with The Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe! The cake tasting was so much fun, and delicious! Vanessa's cake flavors are so unique and tasty, which made it quite difficult to choose! We ended up choosing 2 flavors for our wedding cake and our guests were raving about them! Vanessa was so great and easy to work with. She truly has a passion for what she does and cares for the happiness of her customers. Our wedding cake was GORGEOUS and we couldn't have been happier. We love that for our one year anniversary, Vanessa has an option where she gives you a new top layer of your cake, instead of freezing the one from your wedding day. She cares about your experience and wants you to have a fresh cake to celebrate your anniversary. We can't wait to have another bite of Vanessa's delicious cakes!

I had a wonderful experience with The Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe, from the moment we met Vanessa (owner/baker) we felt so comfortable with her. She was a joy to work with. She was accommodating when we asked to taste additional cake flavors (we picked 3 at first and we wanted to taste 3 more after the initial tasting). She worked closely with us to ensure that the flavors, décor, and themes were exactly what we were envisioning for our big day. We ordered 19 dozen cupcakes (5 different flavors) and a smaller 2-tier cake for the cutting ceremony. Vanessa went above and beyond and made us vegan carrot cupcakes for our vegan guests. They were a HUGE hit among the vegans and “meat-eaters” alike! She hadn’t been asked to make vegan cake before, so she baked a few test batches of cake and frosting to ensure that she created a product that she felt happy standing by and serving. Our guests raved about the other flavors too and at the end of the night… there wasn’t a single cupcake left (we had 140 people)! We were so lucky to find Vanessa and so pleased with her cupcakes and the service she provided.

My wife and I were very happy with out experience using The Chocolate Rose for our wedding desserts and cake. All of the guest loved the spread blown away by the flavors and it was everything my wife and I could ask for and more. I would absolutely recommend their services and I plan to do business with them again in the future!

Vanessa is amazing at what she does. From the details down to the last cake crumb you will not be disappointed. Her work speaks for itself.

The Chocolate Rose Cake Shop in Sandwich Massachusetts did both my wedding cake and cake pop favors. They were absolutely AMAZING!!! Vanessa the owner and baker is so talented, creative, and wonderful to work with I would recommend the Chocolate Rose to everyone! Not only was everything absolutely beautiful and far exceeded my expectations but it was also VERY delicious! Her prices are very reasonable and her work is top notch. Guests were asking me where they can buy the cake pops I had at my wedding :) I just can't say enough good things about the Chocolate Rose!!!

Vanessa from The Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe completely blew my expectations out of the water. Somehow, even with my inability to show exactly what I wanted, Vanessa was able to take my blurbs and pictures and create something beyond my dreams. Beyond being a fantastic baker, she has an extraordinary talent for art. Her creations are not only extremely delicious, they also look so amazing you don't want to eat them! I also give her a lot of credit because she was able to do all of this for me 1800 miles away. We lived in Texas while planning our wedding back home on Cape Cod. She was able to handle this task in a way that I completely felt stress free of it! It was so fun on my wedding day walking in to see this beautiful creation. I cannot rave enough about how phenomenal The Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe is. You're not only getting quality of taste, but also quality of presentation. I can't wait for the next event that calls for yummy treats!

I HIGHLY recommend the Chocolate Rose. Vanessa is wonderful - she is easy to talk to and seemed really excited about our ideas. The dessert table and cutting cake she did for our wedding looked phenomenal, she really understood the vision we had in mind and everything was gorgeous. I didn't have a chance to try any of the other desserts on our table, other than our cutting cake (yum!) because our guests (and some of the hotel staff, haha) devoured everything! Another thing I really enjoyed in working with Vanessa was our cake tasting - the sample cakes were larger than we expected, so we were able to take the rest home for our family to try. She is a true professional and a creative, incredibly talented baker. Thank you Vanessa!

AMAZNG.. AND DELICIOUS! Vanessa is a genius with baking and a true artist at designing the most gorgeous desserts. I had a vision in my head of our cake, she did exactly that and more! expectations were exceeded. We received so many compliments on how beautiful our cake was and yummy it was! Another thing that was a must for me was a football cupcake display. We are huge football fans and i wanted to incorporate that into our wedding some how! After i got to see our cake for the first time and was already taken back with happiness for it i went to our cupcake display and could not believe it.. blown away it was the best thing i have ever seen! Just goes to show Vanessa can create anything you want and bring your visions to life AND have it taste amazing. We loved working with her, she is so kind, so thankful for her!

I chose the Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe for our Wedding Cake and Vanessa ended up being a joy to work with. To begin with, she offered a tasting and the flavors were so scrumptious the 3 flavors on our cake became one of our hardest decisions!! Vanessa also worked with me on the cake design. She took one look at the ribbed design on my Wedding Dress and was able to incorporate it into the cake...both the ribbed effect and the lace! The Cake turned out wonderful and my husband and I are looking forward to the first anniversary cake she provides! Not sure what flavor we will order, but I can guarantee we will not forget to get that order in! Thank you Vanessa!! Judy and Larry

From the amazing cake testing to the cake designs and my bazillion changes, Vanessa was so easy and accommodating to work with during our wedding planning! I loved that the flavor choices weren't just the typical vanilla and chocolate that have been done over and over again. Our Fireside flavored cake was perfection and worked in perfectly with our S'mores theme. I cannot wait for our 1 year anniversary so we can taste it again! I have recommended Vanessa and The Chocolate Rose to everyone I know because they will not be disappointed!

I have to say that Vanessa did an amazing job with everything I asked for. All of my guests at the wedding raved over the cake and desserts and the quality and way it was displayed was more then I ever thought possible. Hats off to her and I would use her for any event that comes up in the future. Thank you for making my wedding that much more special!!!

Vanessa was absolutely fabulous from the beginning! We had cupcakes and then a cutting cake....there was not a single cupcake left and my guest raved about them. Vanessa was easy to work with, yummy cakes and cupcakes, and beautiful design. She also help me with some other decorations I needed...truly went above and beyond. I would highly recommend her!

Not only did the cupcakes look better than I could have imagined! (She matched the frosting to look like the flowers we used for the wedding), they tasted even better! I would definitely use The Chocolate Rose Cake Shoppe in the future for other events and recommend her to all my friends!!

From the start Vanessa knew her desserts! But would they taste as good as they sounded? BETTER! She paid so much attention to detail and made our vision come to life! I would highly recommend her! We will be using her again for future events!

I used the chocolate rose for my wedding. At cake tasting, the owner brings you a small cake of as many flowers as you want to sample. They are delicious and all made with fresh ingredients. I ordered a small 2-tier cake with several cupcakes and did many different flavors. From what I hear, they were delicious (we kinda forgot to try the stuff, except for the cake cutting portion). She also will make you a fresh cake for your 1 year anniversary instead of freezing the top. She has many different flavors of cake, and will make you something on request if its not on her list. I highly recommend.

We hired Vanessa from The Chocolate Rose to do our wedding cake & cupcakes. I am gluten free & often times I am less than impressed by GF baked goods. The Chocolate Rose is definitely an exception to that rule! Initially, I was planning on doing a combo of GF & regular cupcakes, but after doing a tasting that included only GF, we decided that all of them should be. All of our guests were floored by the fact that they were GF & you couldn't even tell. On top of the taste, the presentation was gorgeous & the price was very reasonable. Rather than eat stale cake on our 1 year anniversary, Vanessa is providing a fresh cake for us to enjoy!

The cake was beautiful and delicious. Venessa was easy to work with and unbelievably creative. Everyone loved it! And she provides a new cake for the one year wedding anniversary instead of having to freeze and store a piece/tier of my wedding cake. Fabulous!

I contacted Vanessa with only a few months before the big day with really no idea what we wanted. She met with me, showed me ideas, brought me flavor samples and we figured it out together. She was really great about communicating in a timely manner and always double and triple checked details with us (delivery time, address, date). I also added a groom's cake about a month before the wedding and she delivered with perfection! Our wedding cake was so beautiful we didn't want to cut into it and our guests are still raving weeks after! We also love that although she will freeze the top tier, she offers the alternative of contacting her before the first anniversary and she will make you a new "top tier" at no additional charge!
