    Incredible Cake and Incredible Service!

    To say that Kelli is a talented baker would be a massive understatement! She and her team absolutely knocked it out of the park when it came to making the wedding cake for me and wife. When we started planning, my wife and I had no real vision for our wedding except for the cake. We wanted a Swedish Princess Cake, the same cake we had the day we got engaged in Stockholm. It’s not a typical wedding cake, so when we contacted several bakers, Kelli was the only one who said that she would try to make it. And she succeeded beyond all expectations! Not only were our cakes absolutely gorgeous, so many of our guests said it was far and away the best cake they’d ever had. My wife and I fully plan on ordering one next year for our first anniversary. So if you’re wondering if Kelli and Chocolate Llama are worth the price, the answer is a resounding yes! She is so great to work with and I couldn’t imagine having gone with anyone else. 5 stars and 10/10!

    The Chocolate Llama's reply:

    Elissa!!! Thank you so much for your kind words! I loved that you and Max asked for something completely different. We love a challenge here and we loved making your cakes! Blessings to you and Max and we look forward to baking your anniversary cake!

    Best Cake Ever

    Kellie, thank you for making our dream wedding cake. After speaking to us in person, Kellie and her team created the aesthetic and impact we were looking for. And do not get me started to the taste! Classic, high-end, and simply made to perfection. My husband and I are very grateful!

    The Chocolate Llama's reply:

    I absolutely loved working with you! Your cake happens to be one of my favorites to date. I wish you and Zane nothing but happiness in the years to come!!!!!

    Perfect in every way!

    Chocolate llama will always be my first choice for cake! I have ordered several cakes from Kelley and have been overly satisfied with both design and taste every time. If you are looking for a quality product I highly recommend ordering from this business!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Kellie and her team are incredibly talented. I used them for my daughter's wedding and for my father's 90th birthday. All 3 cakes (brides. grooms and bday) were spectacular AND delicious. My experience with Kellie from beginning to end was perfect.

    Great wedding cakes from The Chocolate Llama

    Kellie did a great job for my son’s wedding. First of all, her cakes tasted SO much better than any we tasted, and we tried quite a few. The frosting she creates is probably the best frosting we’ve ever tasted on any cake. The design of her cakes is outstanding. They are unique, intricate, and beautiful. Kellie’s vision, design, and final product show her utmost dedication to her craft. Both the wedding cake and the groom’s cake were gorgeous. Kellie worked with us through pricing to be sure we felt comfortable with the cost, and she was always easy to reach. The day of the wedding, she could not have made delivery and setup easier. At all aspects of the process, from the original phone call requesting samples to the delivery of the wonderful cakes, Kellie was professional, courteous, and devoted to making our interactions with her a great experience. Thank you, Kellie!

    Amazing Artistry

    Kellie is an amazingly talented artist. She doesn't bake cakes, she creates one-of-a-kind works of art with such amazing detail you can only gape in wide mouth wonder and ask how it's even possible that this is a cake.

    The Chocolate Llama created cakes for my 50th birthday (that got more attention than me). One was a life-like replica of my beloved pup, Travis, and the other an almost exact copy of my vintage Corona typewriter. My guests were awe struck. Honestly, it was very difficult to cut into these cakes--they were just too beautiful. But eventually we did and it was the most delicious cake I've ever tasted.

    I highly recommend The Chocolate Llama!!

    The Chocolate Llama

    Kelli Herrod, the owner of The Chocolate Llama, created the most gorgeous cake for my daughter’s wedding. She is beyond talented and her cakes are not only works of art but also delicious! Kelli is creative, kind and truly talented. We loved our experience with The Chocolate Llama!

    Best cake I've ever eaten!

    It's one thing to get a pretty wedding cake but it takes skill and creativity to have one taste AMAZING! Kellie was a joy to work with. Her tenacity and creativity is astonishing. Best part though, she is down to earth and normal in an industry filled with people that are not.

    Groom’s Cake

    Kellie was wonderful to work with, we gave her ideas on flavors our son liked and she presented amazing options. The combination of chocolate and peanut butter won. She made an amazing groom’s cake that included everything we ask for and more. Right down to our son’s favorite hat and beer on the cake. The greatest part about her cakes is they taste as great as they look. The crawfish pot cake was so impressive the venue even wanted to include it on their page.

    The Most Spectacular Cake!

    Everything that Kellie creates is nothing short of a masterpiece. Her artistic abilities are exceptional, and the joy and passion she brings to her business is apparent in every detail of the product she provides. Oh, and make no mistake, her cakes will forever ruin any other cake you can get your hands on. They are that spectacular. If you make it home with any leftover to freeze for your first anniversary, good luck keeping your spouse from sneaking pieces of it when you aren’t looking.

    Best cakes ever!

    If I were getting married, the only person I'd call to make my cake is Kellie Herrod. She is an artist extraordinaire and one heckuva baker to boot! I've had the pleasure of enjoying one of Kellie's creations on my birthday--a cake that was a perfect replica of my antique doctor's bag! It looked so much like the original I almost picked it up by the handle! The best part was inside...rice krispie cake with peanut butter chocolate ganache...so decadent and delicious!

    When my niece announced her engagement a few years back, I jumped at the chance to recommend The Chocolate Llama. ​Kellie's personable and attentive approach allowed her to perfectly capture the cakes of their dreams. The bride's cake was a tower of pure beauty and grace draped in delicate flowers that everyone thought were actual blossoms--imagine their surprise when discovering these petals of sugary delight intricately sculpted by Kellie's masterful hands! And then there was the groom's cake--a flawless miniature of his favorite piano! It was so hard to believe it was a cake! We all were dazzled by Kellie's artful and imaginative designs and astounded that these works of art tasted so wonderful!

    If you haven't perused the gallery of cakes on Kellie's website, it's worth a tour to appreciate the vast range of Kellie's talent. I marvel at the precision, beauty, and whimsy packaged within her scrumptious cakes. And so it is with great enthusiasm that I offer my highest endorsement of our very own H-town Cake Boss, Kellie Herrod!

    Cake by The Chocolate Llama

    The cake that The Chocolate Llama made for us was not only delicious but the design was amazing! At a family wedding Kellie provided the groom’s cake that looked like a piano with sheet music and so scrumptious! Kellie is not only a talented designer/baker but wonderful to work with as her level of customer service is superb!
