Cake tasting was great. Very nice to work with. Very accommodating for time and day even during the "Pandemic". Making a plan for 2 cakes and a bunch of cupcakes for our October wedding!

Overall experience was pretty classless. There was nothing special about this place. If you like Betty cracker boxed cake this is the place to go. She served our cake tasting in a aluminum foil tray With the fillings on the side. The owner was very unenthusiastic. There was absolutely nothing classy at all about this dump.
