    Confections of a Cake Review

    Confections of a Cake was so wonderful, and I enjoyed working with a small business that was local for us. We had a great 1 on 1 session to talk about cake design and flavors. Everything was so well done, and I have never had a better tasting cake. We were offered so many options, and Ann was amazing about any small detail. You could genuinely tell the ingredients for these cakes were either homemade or were considered carefully. One of my favorite things about Confections of a Cake is that they will make couples a cake for their one year anniversary. I am looking forward to tasting our wedding cake again, and I will gladly order more cakes from them in the future.

    Shes the difference between a baker and a wedding cake maker

    I love cake. Ive eaten a lot in 40 years. But Ive never had a true wedding cake. Until our wedding I didnt know there was a difference. Ive had good cakes at weddings, and good cakes from bakers. Apparently Ive never eaten a cake from a wedding cake maker. Annnnnnnddd hoooooboy theres a difference. A BIG one. Ann showed us that difference. Amazing. From the meetings to plan the cake at the tastings, to the service she showed in making sure everything went well, to the commitment to making us another one next year on our anniversary as part of the price, Confections of a Cake is HANDS DOWN the cake maker you want for your wedding. Hell, it's worth it to fake a wedding jsut to get one of her cakes. Im serious. Try it, then tell me Im wrong :)

    Absolutely top notch!

    Ann and her team are amazing. The cake omg the cake so good. Best wedding cake I have ever eaten. I highly recommend this wedding cake specialist. I couldn't have asked for anything more.

    Thank you for your kind words, Heather. It was a pleasure baking for you and Michael. We look forward to creating your anniversary cake next year.

    Best Wedding Cake to Date

    Delicious cake, big selection of flavors, fun tasting appointment, talented artist, icing filled cupcakes, beautiful presentation, detail oriented, vast experience, the list could go on!

    Working with Confections of a Cake was an absolute joy. The flavors of cake and icing available are just incredible, it is so hard to narrow down the selection. I personally wanted a minimalist style cake but Ann (and her team) are so talented that they can absolutely make any intricate and elaborate cake you can dream up. They’ll send you a rendering of your design to sign off on before finalizing it all.

    Allergies, cake structure, icing in humidity, and any other details sometimes forgotten are reviewed during the tasting and Ann really takes the time to make sure all I’s are dotted & t’s crossed when it comes to your cake. Included in the wedding cake package is a 1-year anniversary cake freshly baked for you & yours to enjoy so that you don’t have to worry about freezing the top tier or pretend like 1-year old cake still tastes good!

    I strongly recommend working with Confections of a Cake. You will be so happy with the results and you will get to taste some of the best cake out there!

    Confections of a Cake's reply:

    Thank you for the amazing review, Peyton. Your wedding was unforgettable despite the stormy weather caused by Tropical Storm Ophelia. We can't wait to see you and Clay in a year for your anniversary cake.

    Wonderful to work with!

    Ann was so kind and helpful throughout the whole planning process. She helped make our plans of a simplistic, rustic cake come to life. She creates some very unique flavors that our guests loved and we look forward to working with her again for our anniversary cake!

    The best wedding cake ever!!

    Ann was fantastic in helping us with picking out the right cake for us. She made the cake tasting fun and enjoyable. I had an idea of what I wanted the cake to look like and we went from there. She took the colors from the wedding for some accents for the cake plus flowers for the topper. The buttercream icing was amazing and the cake was incredible!!

    Book her now!

    BOOK HER FOR YOUR WEDDING!!!! Ann is so sweet and makes absolutely amazing cakes! She is quick to respond back for any questions you may have or if you need to change your order. She even makes you and the groom your own box of cupcakes so you get to enjoy every flavor! Every single cupcake we had at our wedding was delicious and so was our cake! We had almost nothing left over because everyone ate it all up! You won’t regret having Ann as a part of your special day! Thank you so much for making our day and cake dreams perfect!!!

    Delicious Wedding Cake!

    Our wedding cake turned out SO GREAT! The taste, texture, and design of the cake were spot on. We got two flavors – tiramisu and pineapple rum cake with cream cheese icing and they were SOOO GOOD! Cake was moist, flavors were irresistible once you took a bite, and Ann did not skimp on the buttercream 😊 Ann is incredibly professional and leaves no detail undiscussed. She set up an appointment with us to do a tasting as well as go over the design of the cake and logistics. My husband and I wasn’t thinking much about the design or flavors and she patiently gave us plenty of ideas to start from. We were able to design the cake we wanted because of her! I absolutely love wedding cake and it is one of my favorite parts of a wedding, whereas my husband does NOT like wedding cake – I can tell you he loved our cake so much that he was eating our leftover wedding for up to two weeks after our wedding (I was too bc who doesn’t want cake?!)!

    Our dream wedding cake!

    We met with Ann for our consult and she was wonderful. She was responsive and interested in our ideas in how to make perfect cake we wanted for our wedding, and confirmed any allergies. My husband and I knew that day we had found the perfect people to make our cake and booked immediately. We exchanged emails the next few weeks and the replies were always quick. We made a few edits to the original 3 designs Ann and Norma drew up for us, and it went without a hitch. We opted for 3 layers with each layer being a different flavor & filling. The day of our wedding, they dropped off and set up the cake perfectly and we didn’t worry about a thing. Our guests loved the cake and we barely had any leftovers once the night was through. We went with lemon cake & lemon curd, carrot cake & cream cheese filling, and rum cake & cookie butter filling for our flavors and each one was soooo delicious. We can’t wait for our anniversary cake with them!

    Confection perfection

    One thing I looked forward to the most on my wedding day is eating a slice of cake. Not only did Ann exceed my expectations but she make the most delightful and delicious cake. She was so easy to work with and really took my ideas and made it into something so so good.
    This is my family’s second time working with Ann and Confections of a Cake and each time is sweeter than the next

    Confections of a Cake gave us delicious and beautiful cakes for our wedding!

    Confections of a Cake made us 3 separate cakes, with a total of 4 flavors, for our wedding reception. During our tasting, we couldn’t decide on just one because all of the samples were delicious! Ann was so helpful, open to our design changes throughout our engagement, and made sure everything was exactly what we envisioned! The Swiss meringue buttercream was perfect for us, and the variety of flavors gave all of our guests something to enjoy. We ended up having leftover cake to save to celebrate our next milestones in our upcoming journey as husband and wife! We look forward to working with Confections of a Cake again!

    Breathtaking cake and amazing service

    Confections of a Cake was the most perfect vendor we could have asked for. With the stress of the wedding, Ann (the owner) made sure that this part was the easiest and best part of the wedding planning. I can't rave enough about how beautiful the cake was and helpful Ann was- so professional and friendly. Highly recommend! You will be blown away by her cakes and service.

    The easiest decision we made!

    Ann was absolutely amazing to work with! She’s so personable and creative. Trusting her to create our dream cake for our wedding was the best and easiest decision we made in our wedding planning process. Our guest loved the cake so much there was no leftovers lol. She even made sure that we got an anniversary cake for our 1 year. I highly recommend adding her to your vendors list for your special day.

    So thankful!

    Ann at Confections of a Cake was our baker for our 5/22/21 wedding. I first met with Ann just a month before our wedding. I had previously decided to go with a different well known bakery in the Richmond, VA area but at the last minute they stopped communicating with me. I was in a panic trying to find another baker. Several people on Facebook recommended Confections of a Cake. When I contacted Ann, she replied back to me within minutes and we set up a time for a tasting that week. All the flavors were absolutely delicious. I was so excited and relieved to have found Ann! She was affordable and reliable. She delivered the cake and cupcakes on the day of the wedding and coordinated with the florist to make sure flowers were placed on the cake correctly. She even brought her own greenery to put on the cake! Since the wedding, I have already referred several people to Ann via facebook. 100% recommend Ann and Confections of a Cake!

    Confections of a Cake's reply:

    Thank you so much, Kaitlyn! I'm so glad we were able to step in and help make your Wedding Day the absolute best. We're excited to see you & Dom at your 1-Year Anniversary.
