Lovely creator baker who provided us a phenomenal cake for 50 people at a price that was very generous and beyond comparable. The cake looked beautiful and tasted even better! She has a sweet soul and giving spirit, your special day would only be enhanced by utilizing her talents.Lovely creator baker who provided us a phenomenal cake for 50 people at a price that was very generous and beyond comparable.

We didn't ask Lauren for a big cake because we were not serving it for dessert, but she created a beautiful small cake for us so we could do a traditional cake cutting for our reception. She was kind, helpful, and gracious...we loved working with her! And she also gave us our one year anniversary cake separately so we have one especially for that day. Everything about working with her was great! :-)We didn't ask Lauren for a big cake because we were not serving it for dessert, but she created a beautiful small cake for us so we could do a traditional cake cutting for our reception.

Carol was referred to by our venue; we did not choose her as part of our package but she offered the contracted rate which included delivery and no deposit. We felt the price was fair, and she was very flexible in giving us multiple tastings to get the correct combination of flavors for our three tier cake. We gave her an example of a cake we wanted and she made one that was very similar, and most importantly, all the guests loved the cake.

Our cake was delicious and beautiful. Carol was fantastic. She made us a 4 tier cake with each tier a different design that I liked. She allowed us to have any tier any flavor or filling we wanted. We ended up going with 3 different flavors and fillings because they were all delicious. She let us try whatever we wanted and gave us the option to come get more any time we wanted if we didn't like what we tasted. She really was amazing. The cake meeting was one of my favorite wedding appointments we had. LOL. Our cake was absolutely perfect. She really makes beautiful, delicious cakes.Our cake was delicious and beautiful.

Working with Carol was so easy. We got to try out any flavor combos that we wanted, and the planning session was a breeze. We also had a last minute additional to our order, as it was my cousin's son's first birthday. They were able to make a fantastic first birthday cake for him without any issue. I would highly recommend Carol and her team to any bride in the area.Working with Carol was so easy. We got to try out any flavor combos that we wanted, and the planning session was a breeze.

Carol's cakes did an amazing job on my wedding cake on 10/5/13. The design and decorating was exactly what I wanted and Carol and her team listened to what I wanted. The cake was amazing as well and all of the guests commented on how delicious it was. She was also extremely adaptive to guests who had allergies making a special cake for them. I would high recommend Carol's Cakes to anyone who needs a cake for any special occasion and I know we will use her again!Carol's cakes did an amazing job on my wedding cake on 10/5/13.

It was difficult to find a baker who could create the look I wanted and also have great tasting cake, until I met Carol from Carol's Cakes! She was an absolute pleasure to work with and was super flexible to meet my needs! She really listened and was able to capture exactly the look I was envisioning! My wedding cake was both elegant and decadent, and everyone was raving about how great it tasted!

Carols Cakes was absolutely fantastic. They were so easy to work with and allowed us to taste as many different samples as we wanted. All of the cake we tried was delicious. Carol was very easy to work with during our consultation and she helped take our ideas and design a simple, elegant design. Our wedding cake turned out to be PERFECT. She designed it exactly how we discussed and wanted. The cake also tasted delicious and was very moist. I would highly recommend using Carols Cakes to anyone and everyone.Carols Cakes was absolutely fantastic.

Carol's Cakes provided me with exactly the cake I showed her a picture of! I was blown away. We ordered the spice cake and it was just as delicious as our test cake. She also put together a beautiful chocolate groom's cake for my husband. And part of her cake package is an anniversary cake, already boxed and ready to freeze! Love, love, loved Carol and her cakes! Highly recommend her to anyone in the Pittsburgh area!Carol's Cakes provided me with exactly the cake I showed her a picture of! I was blown away.

It was good fortune that I met Carol at the Open House held by The DoubleTree-Pittsburgh Airport. While chatting with her and explaining that my daughter was unable to attend, Carol filled up a bag of cake samples in a variety of flavors. That evening we did a taste testing...and loved them all!!!! Every slice was moist and had perfect flavor and texture. The cake we ordered tasted every bit as perfect as it's detailed design. Carol's calm and professional manner was very much appreciated for such a special occasion.
