Creative Cakes by Carol

Carol and her staff did an amazing job at creating the cake my husband and I wanted for our 9/25/11 wedding. She responded promptly to any questions and concerns I had, and the flavor and design for the cake was awesome!! Thanks again!!

Carol and her team made us an absolute beautiful cake. When I walked into the consultation with Carol, I knew that I wanted a fairy tale wedding cake. And she presented me with an amazing idea for decoration. We ended up getitng a beautiful 3-tiered cake in which there was a road going up the side of the cake with a glass horse and carriage at the bottom. At the top of the cake was a beautiful glass blown castle (Manitou Glass Blowers). It turned out to be absolutely gorgeous. The taste of the cake was extraordinary, each layer was different. We decided on chocolate, lemon and red velvet. Our guests were in love after eating Carol's cake. She was such a delight to work with and if I could do it over again; I couldn't imagine anyone else to have done our wedding cake. Thanks Carol!

Carol is the best! I contacted her after attending a friend's wedding where Carol had made the cake. Carol was so easy to work with, and made everything to our specifications. Her cake is SO delicious. We had four flavors, and many of our guests went back for multiple pieces because it was so good. The cake was beautifully decorated and displayed, and Carol took care of everything for us. We could not be happier!

Carol did a fabulous job making our wedding cakes! We had a groom's cake that was phenomenal. She is all about what the customer wants and she will make it happen! Thank you, Carol!

They were INCREDIBLE!!!! The cake turned out perfectly. I couldn't have been more pleased with what they did with the cake. At the last minute, I brought in two items to be placed on the cake and they did it with no problem and made the items fit in perfectly.
I also had Creative Cakes by Carol do the Groom's Cake. My husband flies Blackhawk helicopters and they made a helicopter for him. I sent Carol some pictures of the Blackhawks and my husband was so impressed with just how close they got to the Blackhawk. The only problem was they had him hanging out the wrong side of the Helicopter, but that was my fault not theirs. They did an absolutely incredible job! The Groom's Cake was the hit of the reception especially with all the other military men who were at the wedding.
Thanks Carol! Highly recommended for any wedding!

First off, my family and I probably went to 7 different cake tastings and by far Carol's are the best tasting. However you must know that she uses whipped cream as frosting if you don't ask for buttercream (we did). We are a buttercream family and her buttercream was delicious... probably the best cakes I've ever had in my life!! For about $300 + $65 delivery fee I got seven single layer 8" cakes that were the centerpieces on each table (all different flavors) plus one two-tier, two-layer cake (6x8). We requested that each cake have pretty basic, but different designs on each with different colors and they turned out perfect. Trying to communicate out of state was definitely difficult, and Carol was not very responsive to (and misunderstood) email communications. However when I got up there a few days before the wedding I sat down with her in person to go over the finer details and everything was much more clear. There was also an issue where one of her employees gave us a very low quote (as you can see) so I could tell she was not thrilled that she had to make 8 cakes for only $300. Considering everything though, I would definitely use her again because she had the best looking and best tasting cakes I've ever had.

Carol brought out fresh samples of cake for the kids and I to taste. We ended up on a sugar rush that day but the kids enjoyed her friendly, fun nature. She made the price affordeable and she also personally designed my cake. She never made a cake like ours before so she commented on how excited she was to get started on it.

Creative Cakes was WONDERFUL!! I brought in a design and Carol worked with it, and it turned out exactly how I envisioned! Not only was it beautiful, but it tasted amazing! She was so kind and one of those people who was a joy to get to know. I would recommend the Creative Cakes to anyone!!

carol was fabulous! so much fun to work with and very accomodating. we enjoyed meeting with her and LOVED her cake flavors. the cake was moist and yummy! highly recommend!

Carol provided our wedding with the best cake I have ever tasted. In fact, it was so good, we had none left but the top tier for us! her customer service and flexibility was unmatched. She worked with us on our price, making it fit our budget splendidly. We had a three tier cake with a fudgey chocolate on the bottom, a strawberry filled middle, and a carrot on top. People were going back for seconds! She was so accomodating and puts such love into her cakes. By far the best money we spent on our wedding. The Granillo's will never forget her!

Carol is fantastic! The cake was delicious and beautiful and exactly what we asked for. We had a ton leftover since we had far fewer guests attend than we originally planned and she gave us extra boxes to take it home in for no extra charge! We had a sheet cake in the back to supplement the fancy cake which was a HUGE cost saver! Carol is fun to work with and great at responding to e-mails in a timely manner. I will definitely refer friends to her for cakes for any occasion! Thank you so much, Carol!

Carol was amazing! We bought our wedding and grooms cakes there. We were thrilled. They were delicious and beautiful

Carol did a good job with our wedding and promised to give us a new cake for our 1 year anniversary. We called and made arrangements to pick up the cake on the Saturday before our anniversary. They did not mention what time to pick it up so we got to the store at 3pm. It turned out that they were only open from 10am to noon. My husband then went down to the store on Thursday after not hearing anything from them. Carol then told my husband that the cake was thrown away on Monday. She told him that he should have picked it up then. My husband said that we were there to pick up the cake on Saturday but we did not know the hours of operation and arrived late. Carol then argued with my husband stating that someone told him the hours of operation and it was his fault that the cake was thrown away. Carol continued to yell at my husband while my husband remained calm. My husband then stated that we would inform people of her lack of customer service. To this she replied by calling my husband an "A**hole" . Beware of doing business with Carol especially after she has your money.

Carol was amazing to work with! She was really in tune with what I was wanting my wedding cake to look like. She was very professional and was willing to do what i envisioned my cake to look like! And of course, it was the most delicious cake I ever tasted! Thank you so much for being a part of my big day Carol!

Ours was one of the tastiest wedding cakes I have ever had. We did three flavors (chocolate, red velvet, and lemon) and every flavor was a hit. Our guests all really enjoyed and many reported that they went back to try a little of every type. We will be going back to cakes for birthdays!

We waited until the last minute to book the cake and I was a bit nervous as to how it would turn out. Turns out I had NO need to be nervous. It was EXACTLY how I wanted it to look ( I was very particular that I wanted it VERY simple) and tasted amazing. My only regret is that I didnt get to eat more )=
Our guests gobbled up every last slice of the chocolate and strawberry flavors- I was so sad I didnt get to have any. My bday was a week after the wedding though and my mom went to Carol and she made me a bday cake with the two flavors I didnt get to try at the wedding. It was SO delicious. Best wedding cake I have ever tasted.

I had some very specific ideas when it came to my cake and Carol was with me all the way. The cake was deliscious and she made a special cake for my hubby! I highly reccommend her!

The cake was delicious! I had a four tier cake, each layer was a different flavor. The flavor was so good, and not even close to the traditional white. They have a variety of flavors with creams and fruit flavors in the middle.
I took a picture of a cake that i found on the internet that I liked in to the shop, they made the cake look almost just like that one. It was so pretty!

Our wedding cake was absolutely beautiful and delicious. Whatever you dream of Creative Cakes will turn it into a reality!

I first found them at a bridal expo, tried their carrot cake, and other cakes. They were amazing. I chose the carrot cake. I went in to talk to Carol, and brought with me a photo of something similar to what I wanted, told her the changes. We filled out the order form, I brought in all my own flowers, and cake topper. I had an idea of what it was going to look like, however, on my wedding day the cake was way more beautiful than I could imagine! Their team is phenomenal! Way worth the money!

If you are looking for a wonderful vendor, you have found it! I cannot say enough about Carol from Creative Cakes. From the moment we walked into her shop, she was friendly, engaging, and made us feel more excited than ever to be getting married. We had a hard time finding a cake that was both beautiful and tasty. Our florist had a picture of a cake that was gorgeous and I asked who the baker was. She referred me to Carol. After our first tasting, we were sold. The cake was amazing and incredibly beautiful. Unlike some bakers, Creative Cakes does not freeze the cakes and the frosting is fresh. I loved the smooth look of fondant, but I didn’t like the pasty taste. Carol was able to give us the smooth perfect look with a butter cream frosting. Creative Cakes is definitely the best cake vendor we found in the Colorado Springs area, and working with Carol was such a pleasure!

I would highly recommend this vendor. The service was personal, friendly, and reliable. The cake tasted great, including the frosting. The owners were excited with our unusual design requests. I also felt I received the value for the price. We received so many compliments on our cake!

Carol makes fantastic wedding and special occasion cakes. Not only are her cakes beautiful,unique and creative but our wedding guests devour them and even ask for seconds! Plus all of our brides and grooms just love her sweet, warm and caring personality.
