Sweet by Design!
Sweet by Design did an amazing job with our cake! It looked and tasted so good I don't think we are going to be able to wait a year to eat the top of the cake! Melissa was great to work with as well. Very friendly and sweet. The prices were great as well. Would definitely recommend! -

The cake was absolutely delicious and Melissa was super easy to work with. We were planning a wedding from Arizona and getting married in Texas which was difficult but Melissa was great, and gave us recommendations that we ended up going with. Our family loved the cake and all her flavors.Sweet By Design's reply:

Holly Sent on 10/18/2021Incredible experience and AMAZING cake!
The Sweet by Design cake was one of our very favorite parts of the wedding planning and the wedding! From inquiry to receiving tasting boxes to the day of, Melisa was a dream vendor to work with as she went out of her way to deliver the tasting boxes to us, took the time to plan out our vision and created the most beautiful cake for us. She was so easy to communicate with and made planning easy, including her sending tips on the tasting combinations and the cake table set up.
All of the cakes and icings we tasted were incredible. It was nearly impossible to narrow it down to our final choice (champagne with almond buttercream). Every flavor was perfectly moist and flavorful. At the wedding, our cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious and we received so many compliments, especially for the unique, flavorful taste.
I am so happy we chose to work with Melisa and I would absolutely recommend Sweet by Design to my friends and family!Sweet By Design's reply:
Thank you for the kind words, Holly! I am so glad that you and your guests enjoyed the cake. You and Brett were a pleasure to work with, and I would be happy to help you two in the future! Congrats! -

Wedding cake
Melisa was great to work with and always responded quickly when I had questions. She prepared an awesome sample box with plenty of delicious flavors. We had a hard time choosing but went with the chocolate stout/cream-cheese buttercream. There were so many compliments on the cake and we loved the look! One of our wedding guest said it was the best wedding cake he’s had.Sweet By Design's reply:
Thank you, Caroline! Chocolate Stout is one of my favorites too. It was a pleasure working with you and Mat, and I wish you both all the best! -

Chloe C. Sent on 08/14/2021Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Sweet by Design!
From start to finish, Melisa was an absolute pleasure to work with! My husband and I began the cake tasting process right in the middle of COVID, so we knew that were not going to have the same experience that most brides and grooms get to have when choosing a cake vendor.
My husband and I had tried two other cake bakers before we met Melissa and when we scheduled our tastings, the vendors would have us drive to their store, they would hand us a cling-wrapped plate with different cake flavors, and send us on our way to taste the cake at home. This was obviously not any fault to the vendors as they were trying to remain safe in the middle of a pandemic, but it still didn’t give us the cake tasting experience we had hoped to get.
Our experience with Melisa was a complete 180! Despite everything going on with Covid, she still took the time to meet us outside at a local Starbucks to give us a great tasting! She brought multiple plates that consisted of various buttercream and sheet cake flavors. It was wonderful and the experience felt “normal”. Aside from her samples tasting absolutely delicious, the time she dedicated to us is one of the main reasons we chose her as our cake vendor.
My husband and I order a 3-tier cake, two dozen cupcakes, and 4 dozen cookies (I have a big sweet tooth :P) and the price was unbelievable for everything that we ordered. We really wanted to give our guests a full dessert experience and Melisa delivered! When Melisa came, she set up our entire dessert table and it was stunning. As a bride, I couldn’t have asked for anything more!! Not to mention the desserts were DELICIOUS. There wasn’t much left on the table so that’s a pretty good sign our guests loved the food. I would highly recommend Melisa to any bride and groom looking for a cake baker for their big day! You won’t regret it. ❤️🍰Sweet By Design's reply:
Chloe, thank you so much for the kind words! I am glad that your guests enjoyed all the desserts. You were wonderful to work with, and I would be happy to help with any future cake needs. Congrats! -

I highly recommend using Sweet By Design! Not only did our wedding cake turn out beautiful but it was SO DELICIOUS! We got so many compliments from our guests. Melisa was so responsive and made the entire planning process so easy. She took our inspiration photos and florals and created exactly what we were looking for. We can't thank her enough for making our wedding cake perfect for our special day!Sweet By Design's reply:

Linda E. Sent on 11/29/2020Best Vendor Experience!
Melisa at Sweet By Design was the absolute best vendor choice for our wedding cakes! She created a custom wedding and grooms cake design based on our personal style, wedding colors, and the style of our venue, and the cakes she delivered for us were literal works of art. And not only did they look amazing, but they tasted amazing! We still have friends and family raving about how delicious the cakes were. You will not be disappointed with her flavor options and artistic vision. She was wonderful to work with!Sweet By Design's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words! You were a pleasure to work with, and I am so happy I was able to translate your wedding vision onto your wedding and groom's cakes! -

Laurel B. Sent on 04/13/2021A huge THANK YOU and 5 Stars!!
A huge thank you and 5-star review goes to Melisa at Sweets by Design! Melisa is so sweet and incredibly easy to work with. From our initial tasting (a super easy take-home box!) to the design and execution process, I am so grateful I found Melisa. We had three smaller cakes at our wedding, and they looked exactly like the inspiration pictures I sent over and tasted incredible. A personal favorite of ours was the stacked cookie cake! So yummy and so cute!Sweet By Design's reply:
Laurel, thank you for the sweet review! It was a pleasure working with you and Slater, and I wish you both all the best! -

Brittany P. Sent on 07/29/2020Seriously Amazing
Let me start by telling you I usually hate wedding cake.... I really didn't want one but my planner suggested I meet with Melisa and then decide. WOW WOW WOW. Seriously the best cake ever. I even went with a fruit filling, no not the gross jelly kind.. she made an amazing creamy fruit filling that was the perfect touch. My husband also isn't usually a cake fan so she created us the most amazing cookie/brownie layered cake and it was soooo good and unique, everyone was raving about it! Melisa was amazing to work with designing my geometric cake & while rescheduling due to COVID-19. On our wedding day everything tasted just as good as the day of the tasting and I'm so happy we gave Sweet by Design a chance. Just book the tasting & I guarantee you'll book Melisa!Sweet By Design's reply:
Brittany, you and Ty were so fun to work with, and I am so happy you were please with the wedding cake and cookie - brownie groom's cake! I wish you both all the best! -

We really enjoyed meeting with Melisa for the cake tasting, and she helped us find exactly what we wanted for the day. We had plenty of flavors to choose from and she helped us design the cake as well as made sure to find the flowers we were using in other parts of the reception to have real flowers on the cake. I am so pleased we used her! The cake was beautiful, extremely delicious and a really big hit at the reception!Sweet By Design's reply:

I can’t even explain how great it was working with Melisa. She was so professional yet so down to earth and really captured what I wanted for my wedding cake. My husband wanted a hunting cake and he definitely got it. She created custom cakes for the both of us and we were more than impressed!Sweet By Design's reply:
Taylor, thank you so much for the sweet review. I loved making both your wedding and groom's cakes, and you and Brennan were a joy to work with. I wish you both all the best! -

Emilee Sent on 11/11/2019Sweet By Design - exceeds expectations!
Melisa with Sweet By Design made the cookie cake for mine and my husband's wedding. I originally came across the idea of a cookie cake on Pinterest and fell in love with the idea! I'm not much of a cake person and neither is my husband, so we reached out to several vendors concerning a tiered cookie cake. Melisa not only responded faster than most other vendors, she set up a consultation right away, and made our cookie cake dreams come alive for our best day ever. It was a huge hit and just as good, if not better, than when we had our cookie tasting at our consultation in 2018. Melisa exceeded our expectations when she delivered our tiered cookie cake (within plenty of time), set it up and decorated it with the flowers left on the cake table. We highly recommend her for any special occasion, no feat is too big for this cottage bakery.
