Bear Brook Bakery 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Portland, ME

Bear Brook Bakery is a home-based cake studio serving Maine and parts of New Hampshire and Massechusetts. Specializing in beautiful custom wedding cakes, gourmet cupcakes, and a unique selection of decadent and delicious sweet buffet options. Nearly any design is possible, from grand wedding masterpieces to creative novelty sculpted cakes and carefully styled dessert tables.

I knew very early in my wedding planning process that we did not want a traditional wedding cake and wanted to have a dessert bar instead. I am so grateful to Melissa at Bear Brook Bakery for giving us that option - once I saw photos of her work and menu on her website, I wanted no one else and I'm ecstatic she was available and worked with us. Melissa's desserts were honestly one of my favorite parts of the day. Like...second to actually getting to marry my husband. I was getting ready as she dropped things off and set up so I didn't get to see them until I walked into the reception and I was absolutely blown away. The cookies, cake shooters, mini pies, etc. that we ordered looked absolutely tantalizing. Everything was delicious but my personal favorite of the treats that night were the vanilla bean tarts topped with fresh fruit. They were perfection. I loved, too, that multiple guests came up to me at the reception to rave about the dessert bar and how delicious everything was. My dad, who had initially been a little put off that I wasn't doing a traditional cake, came up to me after a few minutes at the dessert bar to tell me that the mini blueberry pies were amazing and he wouldn't doubt me again (haha). For me, wedding cakes have never been memorable. Having been to a dozen weddings in my life, I just don't remember any individual cakes tasting great or looking so beautiful that they stuck in my mind. Melissa's dessert bar though? I don't see myself or my guests forgetting that anytime soon. Melissa, you're amazing and if I were planning this wedding again, I wouldn't work with anyone else for desserts.

Martha was amazing!!!! We were blown away with Martha's capability in design, flavor and originality. She was very exciting and collaborative in developing the flavors we envisioned for our wedding day. As an Asian American, there is a void in Asian flavors in cakes/designs in the area of Maine/New Hampshire that we are in. She not only is excited about Asian flavor profiles but has training and experiences with this. She not only created a custom cake flavor (Honey Ginger Cake) but custom dessert bar as well (Adzuki hamentaschen, Matcha cupcake with strawberry compote and adzuki vegan buttercream, and Black Sesame-Dark Chocolate Mochi). The desserts and cake were absolutely delicious and everyone raved about the variety and expertise of the desserts. We definitely heard people say that our cake was the best cake they have ever had at a wedding. Not only did she make original recipes for our wedding, but also complied with the number of dietary restrictions that were needed for our wedding day (dairy free). Her cake design and attention to detail was amazing. She made a ton of little easter eggs of our favorite characters and symbols that were important to us. We have been so pleased and would use her again for any specialty desserts we may need for an event or just for ourselves. We cannot wait for our anniversary cake. She is so worth it. There were times she was busy that she warned us about that would make it hard to communicate with her. We understood and trusted her plan and process and couldn't have been happier with everything. Martha brings a ton of great energy to the process of wedding dessert planning. We strongly recommend her and for any Asians looking for an Asian styled/flavored cake, I would recommend Hanami Cake and as the greatest compliment from an Asian her desserts were 'Not Too Sweet." Absolutely Amazing!

Blue Bird MADE our wedding weekend. With espresso martinis & negronis PLUS fabulous desserts for our welcome party, followed by 3 hours of espresso bar & brunch snacks service for our ceremony, this was the best decision we could have made. Shauna is an angel to work with, communicating regularly up until the date to ensure everything was what we envisioned. She and her husband are so kind and amazing at what they do. Everything was delicious (especially salted choco cookies and PSL!!!). They clearly have extensive expertise in what they do, and they will be an incredible addition to any event. Not to mention how adorable the actual truck is - it makes for great photo ops! Thank you Shauna & Blue Bird for being the thing that people will be talking about when reminiscing on our big weekend!

We had our wedding reception at a brewery and wanted some easy to eat sweet and salty snacks. These popcorn flavors were delicious, they sent us flavors to try before we decided. We chose 4 flavors and they shipped them right to our house. The popcorn buckets had our cute custom labels which they designed for us and looked PERFECT! We had tons of compliments on the popcorn. We ordered plenty and people were grabbing them to take home at the end of the night. A perfect snack after a few beers. Theu were very fast with the samples and the order too!

Blue Goose Bakery 

5.0

  • Starts at $60
  • Serves Portland, ME for additional fees

Hi! My name is Jen and I'm the owner of Blue Goose Bakery. I operate a licensed home bakery specializing in custom orders. I started my journey baking for family and friends. Almost 10 years later, I am so proud of what my business has grown to organically.

I had met Jen at a vintage fair she does monthly and knew I needed her for my wedding after my now husband and I had tried some of her baked goods! We knew we didn’t want a normal large wedding cake but instead wanted a dessert table. Jen was super helpful coming up with flavors and ideas for everything I wanted! The cake was perfect but the real show stopper were the cupcakes and cookies!! I still have guests rave about the cookies and perfect flavors of the cupcakes! We barely had any left at the end of the night! Def recommend for any baking needs!
