Milk Bar 

5.0

New York, NY
  • Starts at $300

Milk Bar is a sweet (and occasionally savory) shop that’s been turning familiar treats upside down and on their heads, shaking up the dessert scene since 2008. Bon Appetit magazine called us “one of the most exciting bakeries in the country.” But you can literally just call us Milk Bar. We’re not big on feeding the hype beast. But we’re super into feeding our flavorful treats to those who crave the unexpected.

My husband and I have always loved Milk Bar cakes and they have made appearances throughout our relationship- at birthdays, our engagement, and just for fun. So it was a no-brainer that we wanted to have it as our wedding cake. We got married in Greenville, SC in October 2022 and it was so easy to arrange for them to be shipped down and arrive 2 days before the wedding. They arrived at our home and we dropped them off with our caters who placed the 6" cake on top of a 10" cake for the wedding day! It looked beautiful and our guests raved about how great it tasted. Months later, we still have guests asking where it was from! We also provided plastic to-go boxes for guests to take home the extras at the end of the night. We had 80 guests and purchased four 10" cakes and one 6" cake. Thank you Milk Bar for the easy and delicious process!

    Empire Cake was a delicious addition to our wedding day! We went with Raspberry Lemon- it was so yummy, and we kept the design beautifully simplistic so it would be the perfect backdrop to add fresh flowers from our florist. The Empire team so helpful and communicative throughout the planning process. Shout out to Bonnie, who was our main point of contact. Highly recommend Empire for any of your cake needs!

    snoScoops 

    5.0

    • Starts at $320
    • Serves New York, NY

    SnoScoops came out of a need for a refreshing yet delish dessert that met my dietary needs. In 2024, I went on the Paleo diet as part of the 75 Hard, and found it difficult to find a dessert that was sugar free, dairy free and oat free so I made my own. Our frozen desserts are made with fresh fruits and veggies, and coconut cream based. Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have :) Hope o see you soon!

    Working with SnoScoops was a pleasure from start to finish. Their communication was kind, easy, and efficient, which made the process of selecting and ordering desserts a breeze. The quality of their work was exceptional - the popsicles were tasty, and perfect for any time of the year. I had the chance to work an event with SnoScoops, and their ice cream was a huge hit on the warm day.

    The Evercake 

    5.0

    New York, NY
    • Starts at $9

    The Evercake concept started as I was ordering flowers online while skimming Pinterest for my toddler's birthday cake. I wanted a beautiful cake that I could add to a cart and have delivered. Why didn't this exist? A few months later, The Evercake was born. We are different in that we are strictly buttercream based (no overworked fondant here). Our recipes are tried and true, slightly less sweet, and with designs aimed to be worthy of your celebrations. We don't have a traditional storefront with overhead to worry about it, which means we don't have to mark up our cakes to account for this.

    Our cake from the Evercake was the culinary highlight of my bridal shower!! The geode design was almost too gorgeous to cut into, and the berry cream filling was so delicious (beats out Milk Bar any day) and tasted dangerously light. Will definitely be ordering from them for our next celebration.

    This bakery is fantastic. Karen was very pleasant to work with and was very professional. The cake was a work of art; the guests absolutely loved it. Karen created beautiful watercolors on the cake to match my invitations, and the sugar flowers on top were awesome and tasty. And the actual cake is truly delicious with a variety of flavors, we chose vanilla with yuzu frosting and lemon cake with blood orange frosting.

    Welcome to Velvet Valley Cakes, where vintage charm meets modern flair. Inspired by the timeless techniques of classic cake decorating books, I bring a bygone era's elegance to life with intricate, handcrafted buttercream designs. My diverse upbringing in Queens, NY, has infused my creations with a unique fusion of flavors, reflecting the eclectic culinary landscape of my childhood. From traditional to unexpected, my cakes blend nostalgia with innovation, making every wedding celebration a sweet masterpiece.

    I had been following Velvet Valley Cakes on Instagram long before I was engaged and knew I was going to hire them to make my wedding cake when the time came. Soon after the proposal, my fiance and I ordered her sampler and were blown away by how delicious the cake flavors were. We could not decide between two specific flavors so Blair let us pick one flavor for our main wedding cake and the other for the supplementary sheet cakes. Our guests loved having options and both flavors. Style and aesthetic were the first things that piqued my interest in hiring Velvet Valley Cakes and I was excited to have a vintage style cake and even more excited when Blair used elements from my parents’ wedding cake as inspiration. We are very happy with our decision and can’t wait to have another reason to order a cake from her!

    I don't really like cake or icing. Most cake that I've experienced has a very basic flavor and the texture is more empty than spongy. And icing isn't better because it's usually quite greasy and so sugary that it overwhelms any cake. I am so, so happy to say that Miri and 10 Bloom Cakes have completely revitalized my cake experience. The cakes are so flavorful and complex and interesting to eat, and the texture is so incredible, each slice is a joy to eat. And the buttercream complements the cake in sweetness and flavor. Every single flavor I've had has been delicious AND her cakes are some of the most beautiful works of art that I've ever seen. Miri knows exactly what she's doing and everything she puts together is a masterpiece. You absolutely cannot go wrong with 10 Bloom Cakes and I will definitely be using her again in the future.

    Baked 

    5.0

    • Serves New York, NY

    Baked is many things. We are a classic American bakery and cafe with locations in Brooklyn and Tokyo. We are also a full-fledged lab of sorts, creating better baking mixes and delicious granola. Finally, we are absolute dessert enthusiasts (and cookbook authors) – perhaps even obsessives. We eat a lot of cake and cookies. Everyone should get a little Baked on their wedding day. Baked Weddings is a natural extension of our bakery and philosophy — fun, delicious, modern, and beautiful. Our Wedding design team is immensely talented, and this gallery represents a sampling of some of their latest work.

    My husband's aunt was supposed to bake the cake for our wedding, until ~6 weeks before when she made the decision that coming was too risky (COVID). So with a short runway we had to find a solution, and of course, we hadn't budgeted for this! So I reached out to at least a dozen bakeries and am so happy I found Baked. They got us in for a tasting really quickly and were so nice. They not only didn't pressure us to upsell, but helped us talk through what it would look like and the cost savings to get 3 separate cakes and put them on pedestals instead of a stacked cake. I honestly couldn't believe it, I was so sure that since we had so little time we were going to be targets, and instead Baked swooped in, saved the day, and made the whole experience just lovely. And of course, the cake was delicious!
