    Best cake ever!!!! I initially ordered a three tier cake, but after tasting the samples, I upgraded to a four tier cake so that I would have left overs after the wedding. However, the cake was such a hit at the wedding that there were no left overs. Thank goodness for the one-year anniversary tradition of saving the top cake tier!. The price on the cake was reasonable and worth every penny.

    We ordered 2 cakes for our wedding and both came out beautiful and more importantly, tasted delicious. We received numerous compliments on how delicious the cakes were. Very happy with the whole process with Rustika and we will use them for all other events we have.

    I scrambled to find a cake in the three weeks before our wedding because I didn't realize that most places require you to order them so far in advance. Rustika agreed to do our cake no problem. It looked wonderful and tasted even better. The groom's cake was absolutely fantastic as well. So pleased!

    We ordered two cakes from here and they both came out beautiful and delicious. We ended up adding our second cake somewhat last minute and they were able to accommodate us.

    My wedding cake was absolute gorgeous and DELICIOUS. I had a vanilla cake with guava filling. In addition, our groom's cake was A WORK OF ART, absolutely perfection! They portrayed our idea EXACTLY! We could not be happier with how well our cakes turned out. We are so thankful!

    I really wish I could give these guys more than 5.0 stars because they really went above and beyond. My husband wanted a Starwars/zombie apocalypse groom's cake and Rustika delivered 100% satisfaction. Not only did the cake look incredible but it was the best wedding cake I've ever tasted. My wedding cake was beautiful and equally delicious. We will definitely be using Rustika again!

    Terrific experience! The cake was wonderful and exactly what we ordered. No problems at all. We had to change the size of the cake a week before the wedding, and they were very accommodating. Our guests said it was literally the best wedding cake they had ever tasted.

    I am so pleased with choosing Rustika for my wedding cake & groom's cake. I first used them for my daughter's wedding in 2011. They made a beautiful cake and it was delicious, but what I was most impressed with is their ability to make the groom's cake in ANY form. My daughter and her groom chose the family dog, Margot the faux frenchy Bo (half French bull dog & half Boston terroir)!! That cake looked exactly like Margot. When I decided to remarry, there was no question who would be making my cake! My colors were all shades of pink so my wedding cake was of course in all shades of pink. They were even able to give the cake three different flavors.... It was soooo yummy!!! For my groom I chose the Lowes car that Jimmie Johnson drives because my husband is a huge NASCAR fan. They made it look so authentic! All they need is a picture and they can make it happen! I also love that it is family owned and operated!!!

    The strawberries and cream cake is my husband's favorite cake, so I knew that our wedding cake needed to be theirs. I got lucky and got an 'end of the summer' special on cakes, so I was able to save a little bit of money. The cake looked perfect and tasted even better! It wasn't too sweet, and it was moist. So many people told me how good it was! The only problem was that I didn't get enough...not their fault. I definitely recommend them!

    Rustika provided cakes for our reception and catered a smaller party (through "La Vida Catering") and both were excellent. The catering was punctual, beautiful, exactly what was order. Holly, the catering director, was nice and was flexible with the venue. The spread was expansive, we had a huge variety of absolutely delicious cookies, food and mousse. We received MANY compliments on the food for both events, HIGHLY recommended!

    WOW! I gave them a picture I found off the internet of an intricate cake and they made it perfectly in my favorite flavor- strawberries and cream. It was a major hit!

    I chose Rustika Cafe and Bakery to make our wedding cake after trying their cakes at the Bridal Extravaganza then sending my sister and mom back for seconds because it was SOOOO good! The other, more expensive, bakery's cakes always tasted a little dry and too sugary. Rustika Cafe and Bakery was PERFECTION and very affordable!!!

    My fiance and I went to the bakery for a tasting and were BLOWN AWAY! We ended up getting a 4 tiered cake with 3 different flavors: Dulce de Leche, Lemon Raspberry, and Black Forest. The icing on the cake was a delicious buttercream icing that melts in your mouth. My guests were raving about how moist and delicious the cake was, and how they wanted to try every flavor.

    I called them the week of the wedding to see if they could make the ribbon detail on the cake out of icing instead of using actual ribbon and they said it was no problem! And it turned out beautifully.

    I highly reccommend Rustika for wedding cakes... heck any cake! It was THAT good!

    Loved the Wedding Cake

    Loved the grooms double fudge wed cake! Customized ski couple fondant was priceless! Mostly good stuff! Cakes are usually great but Once a stale bakery item. Service mixed. Mostly good but Once gave wrong items- chicken mole vs. chicken empanadas.
