Much Ado About Cake

The first thing that attracted my husband and I to Much Ado About Cake was the menu. Her specialty cakes sounded absolutely amazing! I was even further pleased when I saw her prices. They really can't be beat in this industry! I was eager to set up a cake tasting with her. Admittedly, I love all kinds of cake so I knew I'd be easy to please, but my husband doesn't really like cake all that much. I was determined to find a cake that he adored for our special day. We met Dawn and she was very kind and listened to our ideas about what kind of design we were looking for. When we tasted her cakes, they were exquisite! My husband fell in love with her red velvet cake. I have to admit, I've never had a better one. We ended up choosing that as our main cake and the Pineapple Upside Down as an additional flavor for a supplementary sheet cake. We turned in the $100 deposit and told her we'd see her again in a couple months for a follow-up during the Spring. When it came time to set up the second meeting, I could not get a hold of her. She didn't respond to emails or return phone calls. When I arrived in town, I still hadn't heard from her and was scared I would have to find another baker last minute. Finally, I was able to contact her and although we didn't have a second consult, we were able to get the final decorations in order. At first, we weren't going to have the cake delivered but ended up having to change that last minute and Dawn was completely flexible even though it was a holiday weekend. We were extremely grateful for her accommodations. When I saw the cake at the wedding, I was thrilled. It was simple and elegant, just the way we asked. And her vine detailing was beautiful. What was even better was the taste. It was to die for! Everyone at the wedding wanted more so I was glad we had bought a supplementary cake. If I'm ever in that area again, I would definitely use Dawn and Much Ado about Cake. I hope to be using her services once our anniversary rolls around.
