Sweet Designs Cakery

I would recommend Sweet Designs Cakery to anyone who was looking for a wedding cake! They were great from the first time we walked into their shop for a tasting to the delivery and follow up of our wedding for our cake and grooms cake! The cake not only looked great, but also tasted wonderful!

The cake was awesome! We felt very comfortable from the time of the initial meeting up to the wedding. And the variety was great, too.

Our wedding cake and groom's cake were a hit at our wedding. They were able to match my vision over the phone since I wasn't able to meet in person. I changed my groom's cake a few weeks before the wedding and this was not a problem. The cake was not only beautiful but moist and delicious. The strawberry is my favorite but the banana cake was a huge hit at our wedding and we ran out fast.

They also did my daughter's first birthday cake and smash cake. Both of these cakes were wonderful as well.

Sweet designs was amazing to work with and very helpful to me!!!

Had a very large event (non wedding) and needed a cake themed to match the party. We hosted over 500 guests. Even tho we had enough cake to go around, there was not a piece left! Everyone just loved it. It looked beautiful and tasted like heaven.

Even if you aren't that big on cake - it was honestly the best cake I've ever tasted.

The price, the design, the taste and the cooperation Heather and her team offered was outstanding! THANKS SO MUCH! We will be comming back!

Sweet Designs is a wonderfull bakery. We were very impressed with the quality of the work, not only the artistic part of the cake but the flavor was amazing. I highly recomend Sweet Designs for anyone that wants great quality and a great price.

Great service!! We communicated mostly by email so sometimes it took a little longer to get a response back. Definitely recommend Heather! My cake looked amazing!

My experience with Sweet Designs was GREAT! Heather was the best vendor to work with from my entire wedding. She met with us one on one for our consultation. The samples were delicious! It was very tough to even narrow down our choices for our cakes. Heather's ideas were great, I was extremely pleased with the overall look of the cake as well as the taste! She responds to e-mails quickly and is very flexible. I even cut out one sheet cake the week before the wedding and it was no problem. I have reccommended Sweet Designs to others!

Heather is wonderful! She was very helpful with everything. I had no idea what I wanted in a cake when I was looking. Heather gave me so many different ideas to make it great. The cake was gorgeous and delicious!

This vendor is super fun, she will help you make your dream wedding cake come true. She is very creative and enjoys trying new designs and ideas. I highly recommend using Sweet Designs Cakery. They have Big City style with small town hearts.

Everything about Sweet Designs was wonderful. The process went very smooth, they delivered the cake and set everything up. I could not have been happier with my cake. Everyone at the wedding raved about it and not to mention it didn't only look perfect it was the best tasting cake I have ever had!

Heather Horton at Sweet Designs Cakery is super great to work with and a very talented lady! She goes above and beyond to make sure that she captures your ideas for your perfect cake (or cupcakes in our case)! She's relatively inexpensive and her confections are GREAT! Thank you so much Heather for making our "Special Day" even more special :)

The cake was amazing and exactly how I wanted it! Couldn't have asked for a better outcome!

The cake was exactly as I had pictured it when I had my meeting with Heather. She did an amazing job!! I had an unusual cake because we put LED lights IN the cake! Heather was all for it! She was very excited to try something new, and she did it perfectly!! The taste of the cake was amazing... People are still talking about how good the cake was! It was moist, fluffy, and had great flavors! We also had the fondant covering on the cake, and Heather's is sweeter and so much better than any fondant I had ever tried before! Heather was great to work with, and her cake stole the show! It was amazing! I HIGHLY recommend Sweet Designs Cakery! Thank you, Heather!

I have had a picture of my dream wedding cake in my head since I was about 10 years of age or so. Although it was sort of an old fashioned idea, Heather knew exactly what I wanted and immediatly built a model of it for me. She was very knowlegable on every detail. The variety of cake flavors, icings and fillings were outstanding. I got my dream cake (and husband) on March 5, 2011. Heather's presentation and the taste of the cake got rave reviews and I recommend her services to anyone that asks.

I loved my wedding cake and grooms cake! I could not have asked for anything more/different. I had a great experience with Sweet Designs and will absolutely use them again. Thank you Heather!!

I would recommend Sweet Designs Cakery to anyone who is getting married or is looking for a beautiful, creative, cake at a great price!! I am from Joplin, but I live in Wisconsin now. I planned my Carthage wedding from Wisconsin. The way I stumbled across Sweet Designs was through a blog posting where Heather had posted photos of her cakes. I was drawn to this shop because I could see that Heather had done cakes that looked classic, modern, elegant, creative, etc. I found an image of a cake that I liked and a vintage (50s?) cake topper and emailed them to Heather. She gave me great feedback and was very responsive to emails. At the last minute, I ordered 4 dozen cupcakes in addition to my cake. I really had no idea what to expect until I saw my cakes/cupcakes at my wedding because I didn't do a tasting beforehand. I was absolutely STUNNED! The cake and cupcakes were gorgeous and DELICIOUS!!!!! Each of the 4 layers had a different filling and they were all amazing! The price couldn't be beat either. I highly highly recommend this place - it is a really classy establishment!

Very tasty unconventional cake flavors, very creative ideas, very appropriately priced, provides sugar-free options as well. A wonderful experience overall.

Very professional and great to work with. Open to suggestions and will do anything to make your dream wedding cake or cupcakes a reality.

Beautiful cake and delicious! Fantastic service. Highly recommended!

Sweet Designs Cakery did an amazing job on our wedding cake. We had a pretty unusual idea, and they pulled it off perfectly. Heather was always easy to get in touch with, and she was very knowledgeable.

We loved our wedding cake and grooms cake! They did a beautiful job!

Sweet Designs Cakery did an amazing job on my wedding cakes. The cakes exceeded my expectations and tasted delicious. I will definitely use them in the future!

Heather's cake's are so pretty and she is very artistic. The cake will not taste like a traditional wedding cake, but they are moist and very flavorful. If your looking for an alternative style of wedding cake, Sweets Designs Catery is the place to go!

Heather did an amazing job on our wedding cake! It was gorgeous and everyone said it tasted really de-lish! She was very helpful and also helped us with our cake topper too. It was delivered and set up just perfect. My husband and I really loved it and will be sure to use Sweet Designs Cakery again!

Very helpful and eger to work with your ideas and desires. The work provide was creative and orginal. Highly recommended

Sweet Designs Cakery was very creative with my cake design. They made the perfect wedding cake for my day. I thought they were very creative, helpful, affordable.

I highly recommend using Sweet Designs Cakery for wedding and groom's cakes. Our wedding cake was custom designed just for us, incorporating our personal tastes as well as an embossing on the cake that matched our wedding invitation. Heather also helped me with surprising my husband with an amazing LSU groom's cake. She replicated the LSU fluer-dis-lis with the tiger eye/stripes onto his cake. We live over an hour from Sweet Designs so we kept in contact via e-mail. Heather was proactive and responsive in her communications with us. Our cakes were set up beautifully and on time in spite of a long drive and nasty January snow storm. This kind of one-on-one attention, flexibility, and creativity - all for a reasonable price - is a rare find.

If you do a cake-testing, you must try the strawberry with cream cheese icing. We had three different flavors but the strawberry with strawberry filling and cream cheese icing was by far the guest favorite. It was the only kind we didn't have left-over and it left us wanting more. For weddings, Sweet Design's offers either a complementary 3-inch cake preserved and ready to go in the freezer on your wedding day OR a fresh 6-inch cake on your 1 yr. anniversery. We can't wait for our fresh strawberry cake on our anniversery! :)

My wedding cake was absolutely gorgeous. Everyone loved it.

Heather was great to work with and helped me design a cake I loved! Thanks!

The cake was beautiful; exactly what I asked for! Not only did it look gorgeous but it tasted delicious. Everyone commented on how great it was!

Sweet Designs Cakery exceeded our expectations. The cakes they made for our wedding not only were beautiful but taste good too! We had three cakes with three different flavors. Everyone loved them! I would definitely recommend Sweet Designs.

Heather was a joy to work with. Absolutely awesome cake designer. Communication was great - we live 3 hours away from Pittsburg and kept in touch via email and phone. Any time I had a question she was quick to reply. Prices were very reasonable - especially for the quality of work!

We had cupcakes 'sweetcakes' for our wedding cake with a small two tiered square cake at the top. She built us a square cupcake tower and it looked beautiful!

Our flavors were rasberry with chocolate buttercreme, lemon zest with vanilla buttercreme, and pumpkin with cream cheese frosting. ALL of the flavors were awesome. Many of our guests went back and tried all 3 cupcake flavors!

Overall we were very pleased with Sweet Designs Cakery. Very professional and would love to use Heather for any of our future cake needs!

Sweet Designs Cakery did a wonderful job on our wedding cake. It turned out beautiful!!! They made the process so easy!! I live several states away and decided to have our wedding in my home town, so all the communication was through email or phone. All we had to do was tell her our hopes and wishes and they came up with the perfect cake. We even got to taste test the cake (they sent us samples through the mail)!!! I would recommend Sweet Designs Cakery to any one and every one!! Thanks so much for the beautiful cake!!!

They were just amazing to work with. Very friendly, flexible, and understanding. My cake was GORGEOUS and DELICIOUS!! Definitely looking forward to ordering from them again!

Heather was wonderful! She made an absolute beautiful wedding cake for us along with an awesome Groom's cake. The 3-D Jeep cake was amazing! Everyone thought it was a toy, and no one wanted us to cut it because it looked so awesome! We had cupcakes as well and they were amazing. Everyone definately got their share of cake and even wanted to take some with them after the wedding was over....so I got behind the cake table and started cutting! I don't think I could cut fast enough. I would definately recommend her for your wedding! You will get a New York style cake for a Pittsburg style price.

Very easy to work with. Heather took my ideas and made a beautiful cake for our wedding!

Heather was very easy to work with. We lived in a seperate town than where she was located, but she was always willing to keep her shop open and be available after hours for us. We were able to communicate easily with her through email as well. She does digital mock-ups of the cake once you decide on a few details. Unfortunately, she had some issues with the program when it was time for her to send them to us, but this was no fault of hers. She suggested what she thought would look best, and we trusted her whole heartly. Our cake was amazing!! We had provided 5 to 6 designs that we liked and she managed to blend them all into one cake perfectly! And it tasted heavenly!!! Not only were we in awe, but all of our guests were too. When we were unsure of a cake flavor, she even sent us home with samples to help us decide.

Heather worked with me by email a lot because I live out of town. That was a huge help. I knew I could trust her to create something I would love. She listened to my ideas and opinions and was able to give me feedback and give me ideas I hadn't thought of on my own. We loved the cake and the cake bites and are still enjoying leftovers!

Thank you!!!!!

My wedding day was as wonderful as it could possibly have been. I am in the United States Army and am stationed at Fort Louis in Washington state. Needless to say, I had to plan my wedding from several hundred miles away. I only had a brief window of opportunity in February to choose and book my cake. I was pleased that Heather made herself available to fit my rushed and hectic schedule on very short notice. It can be overwhelming when you are trying to make decisions and choices, and you are provided with such a vast array of cake designs--nothing was outside the realm of Heather's capabilities. Anything that came to our imagination, she was game to try. She was very helpful in helping me narrow down the plethora of cake choices. We had no idea how much cake we were going to need. We knew we had to have enough to serve about 200 people, but we didn't want too much cake left over either. Heather seemed very knowledgeable in this area. She suggested the cake size and we went with it. After the wedding, there was very little cake left. People loved it so much, they kept going back to get more, especially the chocolate with the creamy filling. We didn't need to worry about how to "get rid of all the leftover cake." People were more than happy to help us finish up the last of the tasty remains. Heather kept in contact just the right amount--enough to share information and stay on track, but not so much she was annoying. She emailed pictures of cakes and made numerous phone calls to make sure everything was the way we wanted it. When we had to change the location of the reception, she didn't even wince; she just said, "Oh, that's no problem. I'll just stop and see my mom on the way home." What a trooper. Not only is Heather pleasant and knowledgeable, she is quite the cake connoisseur. I would highly recommend her services to anyone; especially anyone who has trouble making choices and decisions as I did. Good luck Heather, and we look forward to our 1st anniversary cake from Sweet Designs Cakery!

Treated Wedding perfectly...highly recommended!! Great cake which we will remember for ever!

The cakes and cupcakes were wonderful!!! Thank you so much for working with us!

Great communication!!! Everyone said it was the best cake they've ever tasted! Same for me as well!!!! It was gorgeous! If only I could have cakes like that all the time! :-) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!

The cake was very good, we had a lot of compliments on it!! We were very pleased!

Absolutely willing to work with us on very short notice. Created a beautiful cake that was just what we wanted. Everyone who came to our reception asked for a card so that they could use this vendor for their own special occaisions!

The cakes were awesome! Especially the groom's cake. They made a battlefield with little soldiers, water, rocks, dirt, etc. It was so realistic and the topography was great! It tasted great too! It was a good experience and I highly recommend Sweet Designs for anyone in the Pittsburg area who is planning a wedding. You can't go wrong! :-)

The cake was very delicious and beyond my expectations. She worked with me and helped me with my design that I wanted. I will be ordering a cake from her again in the future.

Highly Recommended! If you are looking for excellent service, amazing artistic ability and fantastic and affordable prices--then Sweet Designs Cakery is the place you are searching for! They did my wedding cakes Sept 20, 2008 and everyone there was amazed by our beautiful cakes!

I didn't really know what I wanted for my wedding cake. I threw out some ideas and she created a cake on a software program and showed me the picture. I loved it. All I did was buy some ribbon that I wanted on the cake and she did the rest. She also did the grooms cake which was a beach theme. We had a round cake and cupcakes for the groom.

We had a lot of conversation about the cake over email b/c the storefront isn't open yet. Heather is so easy to get along with and full of ideas. She made a beautiful and very tasty cake with three different cake types and three different fillings. Yum.

Excellent Service. The cake was delicious and beautiful. Highly recommended.

The cake was beautiful. I unfortunetly didn't get to taste it, but others thought it was good. Cake designer did a good job taking my suggestions.

The cake was awesome. Exactly what I wanted on looks and taste. She was willing to do anything she could to suit my needs. The best by far.

Heather was amazing to work with and was very flexible. Our cake was incredibly beautiful and very tasty!

Sweet Design Cakery did a wonderful job on my wedding cake. They were willing to go the extra mile to create the cake of my dreams. After numerous emails and constant changing of the design we came up with a beautiful cake and also a great grooms cake!!!

Definitely in our price range. Wonderful service and beautiful cake, loved it!

We were highly pleased with Heather's work. She is an amazing artist...I haven't seen so much talent and creativity before with food & the price was so affordable. We recommend her to everyone we talk to. We also forgot to mention how yummy the cake was. I used to go to the grocery store for birthday cakes and such, but now I rather go to Sweet Design's.

Heather and Cora did an excellent job helping, arranging, and making the cake! We loved the look of it! It was exactly what we wanted.

Heather was just amazing!!!! I gave her my idea of what I wanted and she took it and made it ten times better. Just what I wanted her to do! The cake was beautiful and one of my favorite things about the wedding. (besides getting married! :D) She also made wonderful chocolate cupcakes with chocolate covered strawberries of them. They were to die for!!! She was just wonderful to work with and had a great price for the amazing work she does! In Jan. 2008 she will have her own bakery shop in Pittsburg! I would recommend everyone to at least go and look at her creations that she has made!

The cake was amazing and a great price too. This was the only part of my wedding that i had no fears about the set up. Heather had everything put together and the topper on the cake before anyone saw it. I didn't even see it until the reception.

Beautiful works of edible art!

I have photographed at weddings where Sweet Designs has provided cakes and am always impressed by the designs and presentation. They offer creative options for any type of wedding or other occasion and I have yet to see a cake that has been designed by Sweet Designs that does not impress me. They provide a fantastic blend of artistry and professionalism.

Sweet Designs Cakery has sweetened up a few weddings I have shot. Not only is their work visually appealing and beautiful, but the cake tasted amazing! Would HIGHLY recommend! Very professional, and some of the best cake work I have seen and tasted!

The only time I have seen and tasted a Sweet Designs Cake is at Heather's own wedding, but it was so good! I can't wait to work with Sweet Designs Cakery in the future. It is rare to find a wedding cake that not only looks great, but tastes good too. Heather is creative and can work with you on making your ideas even better. I would definitely recommend Sweet Designs Cakery.

Nothing is impossible in the kitchen of Sweet Designs Cakery! You name it they can make it! Very pleased with the work done by Sweet Designs and HIGHLY recommend!
