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.

When we started planning our wedding, wanting a milk bar cake was one of the first things we decided on :) The team was so easy to work with and shipped us multiple cakes on time to our wedding location, and all arrived in perfect shape. The cakes were such a hit, our guests were so surprised to see milk bar all the way in upstate new york!

    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!

Thank you for considering us for this very special celebration.

      We are science people so precision and details are a huge part of our lives. This vintage buttercream cake was exactly what we envisioned and asked for. The flavor mimicked strawberry dipped chocolate and the fresh strawberries were cut exactly as we asked. Perfect. Did you know that Aromas makes gifts! We added a few of those and our guest are still talking about the infused lollipops. A gem of an experience.

      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!

      I was excited to come across SnoScoops during my search for a dessert vendor for my event. She was a joy to work with and takes pride in finding the perfect frozen treat to cater to any type of diet you and your guests may have. I loved that there was something for everyone to enjoy. She put me at ease by answering all my questions promptly, being flexible and willing to work with me to find the perfect combos and setup for my event. We truly appreciate how easy it was to work with them from start to finish.

      Awarded Best of Zola
      The oompa loompas at BonBon helped pull off an epic custom candy cart surprise for my husband and guests at our rehearsal dinner and helped us assemble wedding gift bags for all our hotel guests. I had a perfect experience with the team for a work event in the past and they were one of my first calls when I got engaged. I opted to have their candy cart come to the rehearsal dinner although if budget allowed I would have had them at our wedding. They brought us in for a complimentary candy tasting so we could pick from their enormous selection of the freshest candy I've ever tasted in my life. The oompa loompas made sure that my fiance only thought he was choosing what would go in our gift bags so he was elated when the candy cart appeared with all of his favorite choices at the rehearsal dinner. All guests who tried their candy were raving how it was also some of the best candy they had ever tasted. I can't recommend using BonBon enough for any event.

      Awarded Best of Zola
      Carol brought my cake dreams to life! She was super communicative throughout the entire process and truly cared about my vision. The cake tasting process was seamless and all of the cake flavors I tasted were extraordinary. My husband who doesn’t even like cake was obsessed with how light and airy the cake was and flavorful the frosting and fillings were. We had a stunning 2-tier mini tall cake and 48 cupcakes and all were executed with such care. The cupcakes were so moist and flavorful and the same with the cake. I’ve never seen the cake at a wedding disappear so fast, my guests loved it all. The design was better than I even imagined and I’m so grateful for Carol and all the care she put into giving me the most special cake and cupcakes. She is a true artist, in flavor and design! And I work in the culinary industry, my standards are super super high. You won’t regret working with Carol for your wedding.

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 wish I could have our wedding cake for dessert every night. This cake was made of dreams and sweet, chocolatey goodness – I literally had dreams about it after our wedding, no joke. And I can't tell you how many people raved about A) how stunning it was, and B), how decadently DELICIOUS it was! I think I heard more talk about the cake than any other aspect of our wedding except maybe our vows (total tear-jerkers). I found Miri on Instagram before she was even taking orders but DM'ed her anyway, crossing my fingers she'd let me book her. Fortunately she had her site up and running to take orders shortly after that, and we booked immediately after our tasting (we were blown away - her cakes taste as good as they look, which is saying A LOT, and they're worth every penny). I am a serious cake lover, so I was excited to find a cake maker who doesn't mess around with fondant or other artificial-tasting decorations. Her buttercream creations are DIVINE, both in taste and appearance. Miri herself is a delight to work with, a genius of an artist, and goes above-and-beyond for her clients. One of the best vendor choices we made. Hire her ASAP!

      • 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!
