Once In A Blue Moon Bakery

Coming from NJ to NC for our wedding was a huge feat. We went down in April for our consultation and taste testing. The cake was phenomenal! Our wedding was on October 22, 2011 and our cake was everything we hoped it would be. The staff at the bakery put us at ease about everything going smoothly on our wedding day. Our guests could not rave enough about how delicious this cake was! Yellow cake with lemon mousse filling and almond buttercream for one layer, chocolate cake (my fav!) with chocolate mousse filling and almond buttercream for the second layer and a yellow cake with almond buttercream for the top. Thank you Nancy and all the staff at Blue Moon for making our wedding cake the best cake we have ever had!

My cake was both beautiful and delicious. The service was prompt. They worked with me to make sure I got exactly what I wanted even though I was buying a small cake. And the fact that they bake each couple a free 6 inch replica cake on their 1 year anniversary makes them even better!

Great cake! It is hard for me to give a review for value because I am not a cake person, but if you are and you want a fabulous cake this is the place for you.

We had a fantastic experience with Blue Moon. I had one of their cakes at an office party and remembered how great it was. I wasn't sure that they did wedding cakes, but called anyway. They were so helpful in selecting a cake especially because I was dealing with a picky groom! We settled on a great cake with a great combination of flavors. It was also really beautiful. Great value!

Really enjoyed our cakes. Our venue package included our cake, so we did a dessert bar with some of our favorite cakes. We have to include the orange dreamsicle cake from Blue Moon. It was a huge hit!

The cakes from Blue Moon Bakery taste great. We went for a consultation in August, and they spent a lot of time with us, letting us try out all of the flavors. They made a wonderful, and bigger than we expected, groom's cake that coordinated very nicely with our wedding cake. It arrived on time, and it was delicious!

Once in A Blue Moon Bakery made our lovely wedding cake. It was everything we hoped for! We loved this bakery and loved our Raspberry Rocket cake!

Our wedding cake was both exceptionally delicious and beautiful! Once in a Blue Moon was very helpful all throughout our wedding planning, including changing the design of our cake a few times with no problem. We would highly recommend Once in a Blue Moon to any couples wanting a wedding cake that looks as good as it tastes!

If you want a simple vegan cake-- go here! For our wedding, we ordered 5 smaller cakes. Three were their specialty cakes, 1 was a simple vanilla cake, and the other was a chocolate vegan cake with vegan vanilla icing. Everyone said the vegan cake was the best! They were also able to use our own cake plate pedistals for the wedding. Unfortunately, they were not able to build directly onto the plate, like we thought. But they covered the cardboard with white wax paper, and no one would have noticed. They also delivered for a small delivery fee-- less stress for us!

Our cake was not only amazing but we also got so many compliments on how it was the best cake anyone has ever tasted! Blue Moon sits down with you and allows you to taste all sorts of combinations of icings, fillings, and cakes (which is the best part in my opinion!!). They are extremely easy to work with and flexible if you change your mind with filling cominations, etc.

Yum. And if I need to say it again. Yum. Absolutely delicious. From the moment they sat down with us months before to taste test their extraordinary confections, they had us hooked. It was hard to choose -- everything tasted great. We finally selected a three tier cake, with one layer being vanilla and the other two chocolate. We didn't go with a traditional looking wedding cake. Ours was decorated with white and silver snowflakes and white dots on a royal blue background, perfectly coordinated with the Maid of Honor's dress through a swatch of fabric we provided just days before the wedding. The top was simply a bouquet of flowers in shades of blue and white. It was stunning! It was displayed on a table in the reception with little snowmen that we had provided, and royal blue rose petals, and it took your breath away when you saw it. And the taste! Just writing about it makes me want to grab the top tier (carefully frozen for our anniversary). YUM!

Once in a Blue Moon Bakery provided us with a wedding cake and groom's cheesecakes for our reception. We've purchased their cakes before so knew the quality of their product. When we initially met with them, we pretty much knew what we wanted and took a magazine photograph of our ideal...a tiered cake covered in chocolate truffles. The taste test they provided was beneficial in determining the cake and filling flavors. We were to make the truffles for the cake, so did a trial run of truffles for them to determine the best size and way to adhere them. There was a fair amount of coordination involved and we had some difficulty in follow-up on their part, but we were persistent and worked thru it. The final cake was close to the photograph and very decadent and delicious. We topped it with a brushed silver last initial monogram accented with Swarovski crystals...which caught the candle light and gave it a perfect sparkle.The cheesecakes were very good, served with a bowl of cherries on the side. Considering they were for the wedding, I would have liked them dressed up a little - they were very plain looking, so our caterer piped some cream around the edges. The center cake had a fun topper on it reflecting the groom's love of the Pittsburgh Steelers. My suggestion would be, if you're considering cheesecakes, think about presentation and ask the baker to give them a little flair.

BEAUTIFUL cake that was delicious--also, as a treat, so you don't have to eat a nasty frozen cake in a year, they give you a small cake (whatever kind you want!) for your one-year anniversary. Not bad for prices. Charge a LOT for delivery but maybe everyone does...overall a beautiful cake :)

At first, I was going to go to the grocery store and get a bunch of angel cakes and cool white and strawberries and have the caterers serve strawberry shortcake to our guests. My mother was horrified. Actually, so was Phil. As it turns out, my husband is areally big fan of buttercream icing and the cake is his favorite part of all wedding. We had gone to a few tastings, and we came across Blue Moon Bakery because I had received a box of their glazed cookies at work. There cakes taste amazing! Also, they are really creative and really talented with decorating. I was soo surprized with how pretty the cake looked! It was a simple white with green vines growing all over it. One tier was chocolate, then the smaller tier was vanilla, and then the smallest tier (which we kept for the wedding party) was chocolate-raspberry with a raspberry filling. Delicious!

The cake tasted amazing however we did have an issue with the actual color and design of it. It was supposed to be ivory colored icing with white detail but it was white all over. I was very upset when I saw the mistake and it actually ruined some of my pictures.

Awesome place to go. They made a cake like the photo I had from a magazine. Baker was a great guy to work with. I would highly recommend this wedding cake bakery to everyone. The cake was delicious and everyone loved it. The best part is we did not have to save our top piece because the bakery gives you a free top cake on your 1 year anniversary! The pricing is fair and good for those on a budget.

Gorgeous cake! It tasted wonderful too. We got the hazelnut mouse and almond buttercream frosting. Yummy! I'm just bummed that I got more ON my face than in my mouth. :-) They even give you a cake on your first anniversary so you don't have to freeze any.

I planned a very low budget wedding, but I wanted my cake to be fabulous. Once in a Blue Moon Bakery made my cakes for me, and they allowed me to change the coloring and frosting on their specialty cakes to fit my wedding colors. Our guests raved about how delicious the cake was!

Would recommend Blue Moon to anyone who wants a wonderful wedding cake. My husband and I were very open minded and just wanted them to pretty much do whatever they wanted just so it had our colors in it and it turned out beautiful. I've never had so many wonderful comments about where we got our cake because it was so good. All our guests just loved it.

Best tasting cakes around. Great value for your budget!

The cake was amazing!!!!!!!!!! It was beautiful and tasted wonderful. I highly recommend this bakery. Go with the Strawberry Mouse filling!!!!!

Very nice and helpful; even set up fresh flowers on the cake at the reception. Also, you get a free mini wedding cake on your 1-year anniversary, rather than eating gross frozen leftover cake.
