Reviews for Helena Wirth Decorated Cakes
Our wedding cake were simply perfection. Touches that they have added upon our request were great to make this our special wedding cake. We love it...
The cake here are so delicious, and fabulous looking.
I were able to find a similar and better choice than I had originally had in mind. Make sure you save your stomach for the cake tasting...
Helena Wirth was the vendor recommended to us by our reception place, The Odyssey. My sister, my fiance and I showed up for the cake tasting and the lady there, Marivic, served us 7 different cakes to taste. Wow! They were all yummy and moist. We tried strawberry champagne, mint chocolate, tiramisu, white cake with strawberry frosting, chocolate mousse and pudding cake, and I forgot the rest. We paid a little more because we chose the chocolate mousse cake which was not included in the Odyssey package. We had to pay an additional $170 which I think is NOT bad at all! The cake is 4 tiers and it will be raised so the florist can decorate it with flowers. :) I would recommend this vendor!
The cake was breathtaking - more beautiful than I ever would have hoped for, and the flavor was scrumptious. I know that multiple guests took three servings! Which I couldn’t believe after all of the food provided by Monrose, but it was really really really good. Definitely the BEST wedding cake I have ever had, and even better than it was at the trial. Plus, there was plenty, and her prices were really reasonable. The best part: a prestigious and much more expensive cake baker in the area shared with us her honest opinions of local bakeries and Helena was the ONLY other one she would endorse with regard to the quality and flavor of her cakes. She did a lovely job on ours and I could not have been happier.
The cakes were very good. They were the first bakery we looked into. At first we were very happy and very sure we were going to get a cake from them. But then, we went to 3 more cake tastings, and realized that they were double the price of the other 3 places. We were quoted in the $700's for a cake for 125 and then a sheet cake for 50 more. The other 3 places were between $350 and $400....for a cake for 150 people. So, we went with another vendor, whos cakes tasted just as good.
We went for our cake tasting with Rosie at Helena Wirths, she was very helpful and had lots of pictures for us to look at. However, I already had my dream cake in mind. When I showed her the picture of what I wanted she assured me it would be done. We tasted the four flavors of cake, and loved them all! Thus, we're having a different flavor of each tier! I also liked their cake so much, I ordered a cake for a bridal shower from them & it was perfect. So far my experience has been nothing but pleasant, and I very much look forward to our wedding cake. I highly Helena Wirth made the cake for our March 24th wedding. We met with them on three different occasions. The first was for our cake tasting at which time we decided to book them. They seemed to get the vision I was trying to portray and agreed to making a cake like the picture I brought in for them. Not to mention the cake was delicious!
The second meeting was when we went in to pay our balance with them. This time the woman we initially met with was no longer with the company. The new gentleman seemed a bit unsure of some of the details, such as delivery time & coloring of the frosting. This concerned me, but he reassured me that they had everything on record and that it would be fine.
I decided to stop in the bakery the morning before the wedding to see the frosting color. It was exactly as I had requested and I felt satisfied.
On the morning of my wedding I received a call from my boss at work. He said that he had just received a call from Helena Wirth asking for the address to deliver the cake. Apparently they did not know which number to call and thought they'd give the work # I'd listed a try. Very un-professional.
This infuriated me. I had gone over the details with them before and felt that it was their responsibility to have all their information prepared before the day of the wedding!
When I called them at 11:00AM to give them the Address AND directions to the location I then asked when they would be delivering the cake. He said they were on their way. This upset me further since they were made aware that no vendors would be allowed on the premises before 2:00, and I'd asked them to deliver the cake at 3PM.
My coordinator informed me that they still showed up early and had to wait outside the gates for our location to open.
When I saw the cake however, all my frustration towards them was demolished. This was the most beautiful cake I'd ever seen. It was exactly what I wanted, I couldn't find a single error if I'd tried. It tasted just as amazing as I'd remembered and our guests raved about it. It was actually one of my favorite elements to our wedding.
So a B+ suits them well.
I recommend Helena Wirth Bakery with the suggestion that you triple check your information with them! recommend them.
We used Helena Wirth for our cake as they were provided by our venue as one of the choices of bakery we could choose from. Of the three bakeries their cakes were the tastiest. Overall I am completely satisfied and will continue to get my cakes from them from now on. I rented my cake stand from them aas well.
