Party Favors

We had our wedding cake recently created by Party Favors. It was delicious!! We choose mocha with chocolate raspberry mousse and our guests LOVED it! They were able to create exactly what we envisioned for our wedding cake. Thank you!

First and foremost: the cake was DELICIOUS!!!! I was familiar with their baking already, and new that they would be on the short list of vendors I'd be visiting to select a wedding cake. They were easy to work with and accommodating in setting up a tasting appointment, and afterwards were more than willing to accommodate the custom flavor combos we requested. I knew I wanted to go with them as they had the best TASTING cake around, but i wasn't sure about the aesthetics. I had a set image in my head of what I wanted the cake to look like (not something they had done before), and they delivered exactly what I was looking for. (A lot of the cakes on their website were more on the novelty/birthday or giant flower side of things, which made me worry at first -- thankfully, they were able to pull off understated elegance just as easily!) The price was decent as well, and there was a ton of leftover cake that we enjoyed at the big BBQ the day after our wedding :) I can't wait for our one-year anniversary so I can eat more! Way to go, Party Favors!

Party Favors did a great job for our wedding cake. They were the easiest to work with - we did a tasting, decided on look and flavors, and we were good to go! We worked with Chris and he was extremely friendly, professional, and helpful. Most importantly, the cake turned out beautifully and tasted DELICIOUS!! Our guests are still raving about the cake - we got them all hooked on Party Favors!We're definitely going to be using Party Favors for all of our cakes in the future.

We used Party Favors for our wedding on 9/24/2011. Not only did they do our wedding cake, they also did a complete dessert table for us. They provided cupcakes in 3 different flavors, candy, chocolate covered oreos, chocolate mousse cups, and frosted brownie bites. Everyone RAVED about the dessert table. Not only was it beautiful but every single dessert that they provided was delicious! In addition, the price was very reasonable considering all that we bought! I would HIGHLY reccomend Party Favors to any bride to be!

I'm sure they make excellent cakes for regular birthdays and such, but when we went for the tasting, we were only allowed to try 2 different flavors and fillings - which are not really enough to tell if we like that flavor or not. We got there, were greeted and then left alone to look at wedding cake books of their previous wedding cakes, while they went to the back and "made" our cake samples. She came back after a while and gave us some waters with two tiny plates, each holding a small piece of cake. I bit into one and was completely disgusted - the cake was very cold to the point of tastelessness and the frosting was warm but was so sweet it hurt my teeth and had an odd rough texture to it. We tried the mocha cake with rum filling and the almond cake with the french mocha buttercream. Perhaps these were just too avant garde since they did not taste good at all...but Cynthia (the lady who served us) was nice enough to box up our leftovers and give us extra cake to help us make our decision. She also presented us with a wedding timeline checklist and a brochure. I just wasn't happy that their cake was clearly defrosted and their frostings were overly sweet.

Without a doubt you won't find a better tasting cake than from Party Favors. Their frosting is incredible, and each flavor of cake we tried was incredible. We ordered our wedding cake from them, and it was really beautiful. Oh, and no more saving the top of your cake in a freezer - they provide a free small cake on your anniversary to celebrate! The only reason for giving them anything less than 5 stars was that they seemed to be a bit unorganized and at times I became worried that our wedding cake was going to show up completely with the wrong flavors and colors, but this did not happen... I had to go back on one occasion because they didn't seem to have written down the cake and frosting flavors that we had ordered. Honestly though, I think they are just extremely busy, and in the end everything was perfect so I can't complain too much. Go for a tasting and you won't be disappointed!

Cynthia and the staff at Party Favors were great to work with. The cake came as part of the package through our reception venue, and we were so happy with the final product! The design was perfect - even better than what I had tried to describe. The only problem was that we had changed one of the flavors about 3 weeks before the wedding, and I called twice afterward to make sure the change had been made. Despite being reassured that the flavor was changed, the actual cake was made with the original flavor. It wasn't a huge problem, and it was still delicious, but I don't know where the communication broke off, and why the flavor wasn't changed. They said you can make changes up until a few days before the wedding, so we gave them enough time. In the end though, only a minor hiccup. The cake was beautiful and delicious.

A week before my wedding I went to Party Favor to order my cake, not only that they could accommodate to it last minute the cake was perfect.

Jon from Party Favors was fantastic our cake was just what we wanted and delicious. Thank you for making our day so sweet! Julie and Issac

We loved party favors cakes. It was a no brainer when we were considering vendors to pick Party favors, and the cakes (we had 2) were DELICIOUS. They did a wonderful job with the buttercream and ganache (I hate fondant), and made one more traditional cake, and one goofy one which we absolutely adored. Jonathan, at party favors, was instrumental in making the designs and costs come together (thanks!!)My only beef with them is that the cake arrived a bit later than we had agreed - moments before the wedding started. Gladly, I was shielded from this by my wonderful friends, but it should be noted in a review. Alls well that ends well, though. And this ended with a pile of TASTY CAKE.

Our cake was delicious! The great thing about Party Favors is after your initial meeting, they let you come back to pick up several other flavors to try so you can really find the right combination of flavors and fillings (and have lots of delicious cake along the way). Although it's tradition to freeze the top layer, we decided to enjoy ours and ate it after coming back from our honeymoon. So good!

I couldn't stop jumping up and down and saying, "I LOVE my cake." John did an amazing, incredible, awesome job on our cake. We had a specific customized cake in mind. When we talked to John, he saw our vision. When we saw our cake, it surpassed all our expectations! Party Favors is a busy store so sometimes you might feel overlooked but we are so glad we went with them. Everybody still talks about the cake. The cake makes me so happy everytime I think about it.

Best frosting EVER. (If you like sugar more than butter in your buttercream, which I do.) We had a yellow cake with mocha filling. We also had chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. We actually ended up ordering a top and a bottom cake, because a friend of the family was making our "middle" layer (they weren't stacked) and they were so understanding and helpful. We did end up ordering WAY too much cake, but we enjoyed for days afterwords. Since we were moving across country shortly after the wedding, we were thankful Party Favors will make us an anniversary cake when we visit home, so we didn't have to try to transport a cake in the middle of the summer!

These are my favorite cupcakes! I was obsessed with these when living in Boston, and when I got engaged, I really wanted to do wedding cupcakes from here. Sadly, there really isn't a good way to get the cupcakes to Philadelphia. However, if your wedding is in Boston, this would be a great choice!! :)

We knew from the time we got engaged that we wanted Party Favors cupcakes for our wedding cake. Not only were they delicious, they were delivered on time and in good condition (2 hours away from the store!), and everything was exactly as we ordered it and very affordable.

Beautiful design! Ridiculously good tasting cake! They were very easy to work with. O gave them a picture I liked and then made it to look just like the picture! They give you lots of free samples to try and find the best flavors for you. They also give you a free small cake on your 1 year anniversary. Best cake place ever!

Party Favors did a great job with our wedding cake, and I would highly recommend them. We had a small wedding and were looking for a simply decorated cake that tasted great. We got exactly what we wanted - a beautiful cake that tasted as good as it looked!

First off, Cynthia - the wedding cake coordinator is a super nice lady & the tasting was great. I had a hard time finding a baker I liked, I didn't want to go to the 2 most popular wedding cake bakers so I made my job a bit harder. at the tasting you can request 2 cake flavors & 2 filling flavors, they make 2 mini cakes for you & also send you off with some cupcakes if you don't try the normal gold & chocolate cake flavors. I wasn't overly impressed with the cake - we had almond - which was actually very moist, but the frosting was very sweet. We went back for a 2nd tasting & decided on Almond cake with alternating Chocolate mousse & white chocolate raspberry mousse for the fillings. At the wedding, i discovered the cake was covered in fondant, which i had communicated I didnt want (i actually like fondant but I know a lot of people detest it) - however it was very soft & yummy & the cake was actually better than the tasting! We also ordered a ton of mini tarts & pastries that I never got to try b/c they were all gobbled up! The design I had sent them was not the design they put on the cake = not the end of the world b/c I wanted white on white - so it wasn't really noticeable. The best part is that for your 1 year anniversary they'll make you a new top layer of your wedding cake so long as you submit a picture of your cake... that will be great considering we barely got to eat any at the wedding.

Our wedding cake was delicious and looked beautiful! Another fabulous aspect about Party Favors is that they provide you with a free cake on your first year anniversary, which allows you to serve the entire wedding cake on the day of the wedding. I thought this was a really nice touch.

The cake was great, and they delivered it on time and it looked lovely, so that's what's important, right? I will say that it ended up costing a lot more than I expected based on the estimates they gave me during the tasting when I was still deciding between different vendors. Every time I called and talked to a different person, they quoted me a different price. It took forever to get everything straightened out. However, the cake was delicious, there were no problems with delivery, and the ingredients were real and good. We had a ton of leftover cake - order a lot less than you think you'll need.

I got both our wedding cake and a grooms cake (for the rehearsal) through Party Favors. They did a great job on both and were very accessible for finalizing the details through email (although sometimes it would take a while to hear back- but it all worked out). I had given them a picture of the wedding cake I wanted and explained I wanted exactly the same thing. Ours was sort of similar, but not exact (maybe my expectations were too high). I did think it would look more like the picture I had provided, but it came out nice. I unfortunately didn`t get a piece of it the night of the wedding, but I heard very good things about how it tasted. The groom`s cake I did was a Pittsburg Steelers cake- it had a helmet along with a `terrible towel` (Steelers thing) next to it. DH was absolutely thrilled with it and it tasted great. We also used them for our son's birthday cake- an elaborate Red Sox themed cake- and it came out beautiful (and very yummy

We actually had the choice of two other cake vendors as part of our wedding package. Unfortunately we had horrible experiences with both. Our coordinator referred us to Party Favors and even though we had to pay some extra money, it was completely worth it. The cake was delicious and beautiful! They were great to deal with as well.

Absolutely fabulous! My daughter wanted cupcakes and only chocolate and yellow cake with white frosting. They helped her design a cupcake display that was special and beautiful and unbelievably delicious. We went back for 2 tastings - her fiance didn't care and then decided he wanted to taste them. They were really flexible and pleasant and helpful to deal with. Very professional without being snooty. They even did an unbelievable Red Sox cake for the rehearsal dinner. I was planning on picking it up that day and became overwhelmed with everything. I called around noon the day of the RD and they had it delivered to the restaurant by 2pm - with a very reasonable delivery charge. They then called me to let me know that the it was at the restaurant! My only problem with the cupcakes was that they were so good I ate too many!

I loved so many of the cakes in the books at Party Favors but could not decide what to do; I showed them a picture of my dress and they came up with the idea to create my dress as the wedding cake! I gave them a swatch of fabric from my gown and they matched the frosting to the exact color. This cake was AMAZING. We did different flavors in every layer:Top: chocolate cake with raspberry chocolate mousse2nd: yellow cake with mocha mousse3rd: chocolate cake with mocha mousse4th: yellow cake with strawberries and cream5th: (this was in back, because the cake would have been HUGE if it was all stacked up) chocolate cake with strawberries and creamPrices are really great for Boston cake and the people are very nice. They create the cake to serve your guests - top layer is served and on your 1st anniversary they will make you a fresh cake if you give them a picture for their album.Our cake was the cake written about in the Spring 2007 Bridal Issue of the Improper Bostonian.Their butter cream frosting is the best I've ever had, and they have the best mini cupcakes (we had them at our engagement party and my bridal shower). Delicious!

Our cake tasted great and was just the way we described it to the store representative. The store was very generous with cake tastings -- we ended up eating two whole free cakes and two cupcakes! The cake was ordered and delivered with no hitches, and we were very impressed with its appearance on our wedding day. We were able to have a fondant-covered cake with sugar calla lilies for much less than we would have at many other Boston bakeries. Since they are a full-service bakery and do more than wedding cakes, it's possible to book a cake with them much later than you would have to for wedding cake-only bakeries.

We had a cupcake tower with a small cake on top for cutting. This allowed to have different flavors for the guests - so they could choose from chocolate, vanilla and spice (our choices). It was beautiful and tasty. After many local tastings we chose Party favors as having the best combination of cake and frosting. And with the cupcakes we were able to take the leftovers home and serve the extras at brunch the next day. We also got our free top-tier on our one-year anniversary. Excellent service!

Wonderful service and very nice staff.

Delicious! Beautiful!

I really enjoyed working with Party Favors for both my cake and my invitations. The cakes that we tried were all so delicious it was difficult to decide on flavors! The staff at Party Favors is extremely flexible, easy to talk to, and very helpful. The cake turned out to be absolutely beautiful and I got so many compliments on the taste. I would highly recommend Party Favors for both cakes and invitations.

the cake was delicious and beautiful, I still get comments from my guests. Many told me they never remember wedding cakes, but really liked the taste of ours. The store listened to our idea, and made the cake looking very romantic and gentle, delivery was prompt. Would recommend to a friend.

The cake was delicious! We had three layers with different fresh fruit each. The cake looked amazing as well. The lady who helped us select the cake and gav us pieces to taste was very nice, and answered all of our questions. The cake was delivered on time, and we did not even have to worry about that. I highly recommend these people.
