Lindsey was very kind, professional, and easy to work with. She made my daughter’s vision come to life. The cake was equally beautiful and delicious!

Lindsey from Sweet Elegance was our wedding day baker and she really outdid herself! We loved our confetti two tier cake, and all of the mini desserts were delicious. We particularly loved the tiramisu cups and macarons. Lindsey was very easy to communicate with regarding changes to our order and scheduling drop off. Would highly recommend Lindsey for your wedding desserts or any other event!

We couldn’t have been more pleased working with Lindsey at Sweet Elegance! We did a cake tasting 6 months before our wedding date and immediately knew we wanted to work with Lindsey. She’d made light and refreshing cake options - just what we wanted for our late June wedding. We were so confident in her that we paid her in full right away. I had an example of a very specific “look” for a three -tiered wedding cake. Lindsey not only delivered on replicating just what I wanted but upon delivery, she placed the flowers perfectly AND the cake was absolutely scrumptious, just as we’d experienced at our tasting. Closer to our wedding date, we realized we’d not yet made arrangements for a rehearsal dinner dessert so we naturally reached out to Lindsey and crossed our fingers she’d be able to help. She happily made us a variety of dessert options that had guests raving. Since my new husband and I couldn’t help ourselves and ate some of the top tier on our honeymoon, we hope to have Lindsey replicate our wedding cake on our first anniversary :)

I reached out to Lindsey to order garden themed cupcakes for my sister’s bridal shower and we could not have been more pleased! They were absolutely beautiful, and delicious, as well. Communicating with Lindsey was so easy, and it was a huge relief to have such a talented pastry chef create these, for us!

We just finalized our cake tasting and picked our wedding cake. Lindsey is a GEM. We drove nearly 12 hours from south Florida to Weaverville for these incredible samples. Patient, kind, warm, incredibly durable (given the insane recent storm); as the groom of this wedding, I cannot overemphasize how pleased I am. Took us nearly thirty minutes to decide which of the 3 cake combinations we wanted: we couldn’t decide!

If anyone books her for their cake, please invite me to attend

Lindsey did an amazing job on our wedding cake! We couldn’t stop thinking about it after our tasting and couldn’t wait to have it again at our wedding. The cake design was gorgeous and she was lovely to work with.

Lindsey was in charge of a cupcake assortment for our Weaverville wedding, and she DELIVERED. The presentation was beautiful and there wasn't a crumb left at the end of the night.

I can’t believe I forgot to leave a review for the wedding cake I think of on a weekly basis. We used sweet elegance for our June 2024 wedding and it was a great choice. Cake tasting was tons of fun and we are so happy with our flavor choice. So happy in fact, as I said earlier, I still think about our cake. I wish I could eat it every year.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. This is the 2nd time they have done gender reveal cupcakes for us and we couldn’t be happier. Everything was a breeze- from ordering to pickup, it was exceptional. The cupcakes were beautiful and tasted even better….I usually never like store bought sweets bc the icing taste weird but that’s not the case here. Highly recommend sweet elegance for any of your sweet treats!

I ordered a birthday cake for my granddaughter. I picked up the cake at 11:30 the cake was decorated nicely the party theme was paw patrol. The party didn't start until 6:00 o'clock everyone loved the way the cake looked but when we cut the cake it was dry and hard and it didn't taste like butter cream it was a two tier cake chocolate for the top vanilla bean for the bottom and it all went in the trash the top of the vanilla cake was burnt and nobody ate the cake 200.00 hundred dollars in the trash. All it was good for was pictures. I would only recommend her cake's for pictures nothing else. Just a follow up Yes you did tell me to keep the cake at room temperature and only put leftovers in the refrigerator because of the cake would be hard this cake that I picked up at 11:30 set at room temperature for 6 and a half hours plenty of time for the cake to be thawed out and madam I am not a liar this cake was burnt and I do not appreciate being called a liar. And it did not taste like buttercream. And I know I am not going to be getting a refund or anything of any value for what I paid for this cake so why would I send you an email for you to tell me there's nothing you could do and that you were sorry when I want people to know about this experience I had with one of your cakes that's why I left a review and not an email.

I am sad to hear that others have experienced what our family has experienced with this so called business. I 100% agree about Lindsey's attitude. My son was to get married the Saturday after the hurricane in Black Mountain. Lindsey let my daughter in law know very quickly that she would not be refunding. I nicely asked for 50% refund and received a very snarky email in return. I know I'm going to get the same woe is me song and dance from her when she reads this. I also asked for a copy of the contract/agreement and screenshots of text and calls she supposedly made to my DIL but she has chose to ignore those requests. IF she had cell service which I highly doubt, then she was one of very few.

I would like to think that business owners who wish to keep a reputable status would want to be understanding during a natural disaster but not this one.

Follow-up: The reason I contacted you is because I paid for the cake!

My wife and I ordered a wedding cake from Sweet Elegance for an Oct. 21 wedding.

The bakery lost power & water from effects of the recent hurricane. On Oct. 5th, Lindsey told us she was not going to fulfill the contract, that "it will not be possible or legal for me to provide food for any event."

I had asked her for our deposit back simply because she was not fulfilling her part of the contract. Clearly, the contract is null and voided if she is choosing not to fulfill it, but proceeded to tell us the refund is non-refundable.

Ultimately, Lindsey told us we should wait around and check back to see if "the bakery can operate" with 11 days until our wedding otherwise she would give half of the refund back.

This lady is a complete scammer & a total fraud.

Stay away from Sweet Elegance!

My family and I had a recommendation to use sweet elegance for a wedding cake for our wedding in October 2024. We had a cake tasting in February 2024 in which we arrived early and were greeted with an attitude, for being early.

However, we enjoyed the tasting and paid for it. We ended up signing a contract and putting down the full amount of money to have a wedding cake made by Lindsey.

Due to the devastation in Asheville brought by Hurricane Helene, the services were unable to be delivered due to causes out of either parties control; however we were unable to receive our full refund back and responses that we had received from Lindsey via email were short and uninterested.
