Lina's service was amazing and the cake was beyond delicious! I was desperately in need of finding two cakes to feed 100 people for a corporate event and Lina came through! I was able to order a vanilla and chocolate cake with the design I needed, now both cakes looked amazing but my favorite was the 2 layered chocolate cake with an oreo crumb center, if you haven't tried it then get it now, I promise you won't be disappointed. Thank you Lina and team for coming through on this last minute request, you guys are the best!

We worked with Lina on a bit of back and forth to zero in on the cake design that was the best fit for the person and occasion. Lina was patient and helpful in the process. Ordering was easy. Pick-up was flawless and on time. The cake was exceptional in all regards. Will do business with Cakes by Design again!

Do yourself a favor and find someone else! Looking at the website with beautiful cakes, I thought I would have gotten a professional looking cake. Unfortunately I did not. I ordered 2 dozen cupcakes to be arranged to look like a cake. I provided a picture to be put on the cake. I also ordered a dozen gluten free cupcakes. The gluten free were dried out, crumbly and MINI, not even full size. The regular cupcakes were a hot mess. They weren’t fresh and they tasted stale. She iced them individually when she told me she would use fondant with the team picture on top. She charged me $165 for this ridiculousness. $165!!! When I questioned and expressed my dissatisfaction, she went radio silent.Do yourself a favor and find another baker in the area.

My boyfriend surprised me with a cake from here recently and I’m honestly beyond impressed. I’ve had custom cakes before that have been beautiful but have no flavor or are dry. It’s what I’ve come to expect from custom designs and fondant. This place has changed that expectation. The cake was delicious as well as fantastically decorated. On top of that, while I don’t know the exact price, the original estimate when I was looking for a cake was half the cost here as it was at some of the other places I’ve gotten a cake at before. Apparently the woman who runs the shop even called to ask if we wanted her to finish the cake early so we could pick it up before a storm; she could not have been more accommodating. A fraction of the cost, great quality beautiful design and fantastic customer service - couldn’t ask for anything else and will definitely be using this shop in the future for all custom cake needs.

Lina has designed Thea’s cakes for the past two years. Not only are they incredible to look at but delicious. Reasonable pricing considering the time and detail work. We will continue to give her our business for years to come!

It was a huge dissatisfaction. We ordered a birthday cake for our son's birthday party. Please see in the photo what we got for 26 people, and it costs us $175. I can say how much I had to cut tiny slices to feed all 26 people.
Guess I can't blame anyone but myself I should have searched on yelp first I would have seen 3 stars and known. I am so let down by this cake design. Paying $300 for a small sheet cake and expecting a white sharp edged well made shipping box with my boyfriends logo and a shipping label on it and I get a rounded edge dark brown cake. I've seen so many beautiful shipping box (mostly Amazon) that are nice square edged box cakes (in the correct color brown). I am so disappointed to show a room full of 80 of his friends this weird looking cake that I dropped $300 on expecting it must look amazing for that price label. I never write a review, but this is really an unfair situation that I can't go and fix myself and for a really special event it's pretty upsetting. I have attached my email to this business owner along with her reply.. which says it all. (See photos for email to owner and her unprofessional response and a pic of her work "for my records" that only further backs my issue. Since professionalism is clearly out the window I'd love to just mention that had I asked for a warm pretzel the color would have been spot on, there's no way I could take this cake to a 40th birthday party and she knows that.)

I have never bothered to review something before. The cake for my son's baptism looked exactly like the photos I sent. The cake was delicious. The whole experience was "5 stars"! -Caille Roy

The engagement cake we ordered was beautiful and DELICIOUS! It looked exactly like I'd hoped it would. Many guests said it was the best cake they'd ever had. I highly recommend Cakes by Design!!

I got a cake for my daughter's fourth birthday. The theme was "Raya and the last dragon". Because of how new the movie is decor was difficult to find. This team did not disappoint! The cake as a whole was glorious! It tasted amazing, and I was overly impressed with the esthetics of it as well.
