We actually did not have a cake, but cupcakes. They were absolutely delightful. I do highly recommend Leda's, but there are reasons why my review isn't all perfect. First off, they are not very flexible as far as decorating the cake. Their choices are minimal. So if you are looking for intricate designs, look elsewhere. The taste however is AMAZING! My favorite were the chocolate cupcakes with the peanut butter frosting! YUM! I do have one other beef and that is I wasn't offered any sorts of to-go type bags or boxes. I had not idea how many cupcakes would be left over, with nothing for anyone to take them home in. :( We wound up putting what we could in a cigar box...the rest probably got chucked.
I love their cupcakes, but my only advice is to get the normal sizw cupcakes(not the mini) and to get at least 2 per person. I got the minis and did what they told me and got 1 1/2 cupcakes per person and we ran out of cake... some guest didn't get any! so yummy yummy caupcakes, but make sure you have enough for everyone.
The cake and cupcakes were incredibly decadent. I found Leda's again through bride recommendations. I have two small gripes. One is that my cake was not the right colors. I should have gone to the bakery to confirm my color choices. I did not do this and my colors were slightly off. No one really noticed because they were too busy inhaling them. The other gripe is that they were late delivering my cake. My venue is off-the-beaten path. I specifically sent detailed directions to my venue. They chose to use mapquest instead. My cake did not arrive until halfway through my reception! I did not get to display my cake and cupcakes like I wanted.

Leda's offers beautifully designed traditional cakes along with cupcakes. However, the fillings are anything but traditional. Chocolate raspberry, lemon, passionfruit and carrotcake were our choices. I am not a cake lover, whatsoever. These cakes and cupcakes are zinging with flavor...not too intense, not too buttery, not too sweet, just right in every category. The buttercream frosting was to die for. We had people asking us where they could get those amazing cupcakes for months after our wedding. Since our wedding was outdoors, and there was no kitchen, we had to get creative to keep the cupcakes good for the hours leading up to the wedding. Leda worked with us to provide boxes for transportation. We provided our own coolers. It worked out just fine. It definitely helped that it wasn't too hot outside. The day of the wedding, Leda's wasn't able to provide all of the cupcakes because of the space in the boxes, so a friend had to go get a tupperware. Other than that, everything went very smoothly. I highly recommend their cakes for something unique.
