Amazing Wedding Cake!
I didn't know exactly what I wanted when I met with Darlene but after speaking with her she figured out the perfect cake for us. I got so many comments from the guests on the cake. It was absolutely a dream cake. I highly recommend using Darlene's Specialty Cakes! -

Leslie Sent on 10/08/2018I found Darlene on line when I was looking for someone to do a very special birthday cake with a goose hunting theme. I shared my ideas with her and the end result was amazing! Big hit with the crowd for sure.

User2452777 Sent on 12/03/2015Darlene is the best! Ever since I requested pricing on the wedding wire to get more information, Darlene has been so efficient, very responsive and very very flexible!! I can't tell you how many times I kept shooting new ideas to her and switching up the size of the cake and she was always was so flexible and very helpful. And of course her cake was very delicious. The wedding cake turned out so beautifully I couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect wedding cake. Oh and she was very reasonable with pricing and getting you the most for your money :) -

Maria Sent on 01/17/2016Darlene has been a pleasure to work with so far! She has been very easy to get a hold of, and though my fiance is doing most of the cake planning, he has all nice things to say! She worked with us, looking at pictures, to create the cake of our Pinterest wedding dreams! The cake options we selected sound amazing, and I can't wait to see and eat it! -

We were looking for a cake for our daughters Sweet 16 party and sampled cupcakes from several different bakeries. Some cakes were too dry, or too sweet, or just way too expensive. Darlene’s cake was perfect, amazing flavor, fabulous price, and an awesome flexible person to work with! -

User2240911 Sent on 07/24/2015Darlene and her cakes are amazing!!!! She did the cake for my younger sister's wedding, so it was an easy choice to have her handle my wedding cake. Not only was it DELICIOUS, but it was also absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!! I received SO many compliments on it. Darlene was so easy to work with and so reliable and affordable to top it off, I definitely recommend her if you're looking for the perfect wedding cake!!! (or a cake for any other special occasion for that matter!)

User2240098 Sent on 07/23/2015Darlene is absolutely fantastic! She met with us and our family to taste all of the cake options and discuss the designs we wanted. She also is very reasonably priced when compared to other bakers. It was an absolute no-brainer going with Darlene. The cake was delivered on-time, was beautiful, and was absolutely delicious! We also had a Bengals themed groom's cake which was adorable as well. We highly recommend Darlene!!! -
User2200334 Sent on 06/27/2015Darlene is wonderful! We had a wonderful tasting with fresh cupcakes and icing to pick our cake type. She worked with us to meet our tight budget and create a beautiful cake. The cake arrived on time and looked exactly as we had hoped! Highly recommended! -
User2147275 Sent on 05/26/2015I had a chocolate wedding cake with chocolate fudge filling and white buttercream on the outside. I am not a fan of buttercream but she makes her own and it is pretty good. I told her that I want it thick enough so people don't know that it is a chocolate cake and it was. Also I showed her I wanted a specific design which is pretty complex, it won an award over in Britain and the cake that won cost $7,000. I asked her is she thought she could do it and she did. I had a few changes. So the design was flowers draping down from the top like moss, and then each layer was like a scene of a field with flowers and grass and at the bottom would be a cat and bunny. This is made out of all buttercream using our color of turquoise/teal. She made the buttercream look like it was made out of fondant, which I have never seen before. In addition, she added numbers to some of the flower's leaves in a super elegant way and when I told my friends about the numbers they all said it would be tacky but it wasn't (inside joke with my husband in how we met-auditing class). She did an amazing job. Everything was lovely and delicious. Everybody said they have never had a chocolate cake that tasted this good. So I got the design of a $7k cake for much much less. Everything was perfect. I wish I could post a picture of it now to show you. She is extremely accommodating in setting up an appointment. When I called her I only had one weekend open to meet her and she re-arranged her schedule to meet me and do a cake testing. I was having major surgery so it had to be that day and she did it. She is a very nice person and also very talented. I highly recommend her. She also offers you a free anniversary cake. I bought a cake for 140 people.

User1835465 Sent on 09/29/2014Darlene is really easy to work with and her prices are very reasonable. On top of that, the cake is delicious and beautiful. Everyone at my party raved about the wedding cake. We had 3 different layers with 3 different flavors and a raspberry filling. What is even better is that she will give us a complimentary 1 year anniversary cake on our anniversary so we didn't have to save/freeze any of our cake. We can't wait to eat that cake :). I've already ordered another cake for a baby shower I am throwing for my friend. -
User1862155 Sent on 10/14/2014My husband and I were very happy with the cake Darlene made for our wedding. We had a three-tier cake with butter cream frosting. We liked that we were able to pick different flavors for each level, and the frosting was great. Darlene also makes you a new cake for your one-year anniversary so you don't have to keep the top tier in your freezer. Darlene was professional and responsive throughout the entire process.

Jennifer Sent on 08/22/2014Darlene did an AMAZING job on our wedding cake and a special grooms cake for my husband. Unlike many of the other wedding cake vendors we met with during the planning process, Darlene prepared huge cupcakes for us to try during our tasting, which is nice because we actually got a real feel for how the cake tasted. She was welcoming and so friendly that we didn't even get 10 minutes down the road before we emailed her back and booked her! Up until the wedding day, she was extremely responsive with any questions we had. When I had the idea to get my husband a Dallas Cowboys grooms cake, she provided ideas and suggestions. On the wedding day, I was overwhelmed with not only how good the cake tasted but how well the wedding cake looked to the picture I provided during our tasting. Our guest raved on (and are still raving) on how good the cake tasted! Darlene is exceptional and so glad we chose her to be apart of our vendor team!
