This Queen did such a great job on my wedding cupcakes. She was so great to work with, the cupcakes were jaw dropping, and they were so yummy and delicious. I encourage all brides to book with this wonderful woman. She was the only one who said yes to making my vanilla cupcakes with orchids on top. She's Fantastic.

Do yourself a favor and order more cake than you think you will need. This was the best wedding cake I’ve ever had and I only got one bite! I thought we would have some to take home, but it was all gone! More than one of our guests told me they had two or three slices because it was so tasty. But wait, there is more. Her cake was absolutely stunning. She took a photo from pinterest and ran with it. Absolutely stunning and all in buttercream. Thank you Ericka for knocking it out of the park!!! We will be ordering all the cakes we can from you.

The best cake I ever tasted!
I planned a wedding in less than 2 months. One of the first and best decisions I made was booking [Butter Baked Cookies + Cakes]. It was difficult deciding on flavors due to the wide variety of flavors offered. After tasting four varieties, we decided to go with Lemon Velvet and Strawberry Shortcake. Let me tell you, our guests are still raving about how delicious the cake was. It tasted as good as it looked. The Lemon Velvet was luscious and and creamy with the perfect amount of citrus and sweetness. The Strawberry Shortcake moist and light. The freshness of the strawberries paired well with the icing. We are counting down the days to our anniversary to have more cake.

Our wedding cake from [Butter Baked Cookies + Cakes]. was absolutely amazing in both taste and look! Ericka was so sweet and easy to work with. With less than 2 weeks' notice, she created a gorgeous and delicious cake and cupcakes for us. We wanted a square, tiered cake on the simpler side, and Ericka exceeded our expectations. We had a special request with regards to the flavor and it came out perfect. Ericka truly went above and beyond and we could not have been more pleased. We cannot recommend [Butter Baked Cookies + Cakes]. enough!

[Butter Baked Cookies + Cakes] is my absolute go-to for beautiful AND delicious specialty cakes and desserts. We had a small private wedding and she nailed our vision with an elegant cake. Hand-piped buttercream succulents and a gorgeous marble look on the cake all with it being chocolate! We have a reception coming up and I've requested the same in a bigger scale along with 3 dozen cupcakes and we can't wait for our guests to experience how wonderful they are. Ericka is very quick with her communication and a delight to work with!
