I put in an inquiry for a birthday cake to be made. No response! I sent an email, no response!!! I called, no answer!! Took my business to pat-a-cakes!!
*EDIT RESPONSE TO OWNER* You assume wrong, I read your statement about delays before I put in my inquiry. And if you read your own statement, it states to put in orders 2 weeks prior. And you will respond UP TO 72 Hours not including Sundays. And if you actually looked at my inquiry you wouldve noticed I placed the inquiry On the 3rd of January and asked for pick up on January 20! Which is more than the time that you request. So no, I wasnt

We ordered a zombie cake for my son's 5th birthday. He was beyond thrilled with his cake, said it was the best ever. The flavor was Lemon berry. The lemon had flavor but wasn't too over powering (so perfect) and the fruit in it was actual fruit. Delicious! I will be ordering more cake any excuse I can get ;)

Absolutely delicious Cakes!!! How Sweet It Is offers so many delicious and fun flavors of cakes that you can't help but want to try them all! We had cookies and cream for my sons first birthday and she made his cake so special and memorable! His birthday cake also came with a tiny smash cake she made for him to have! We got so many compliments on his Dr. Seuss cake, we will definitely be getting all our future cakes from here!
