Heather made us the most stunning cake of our dreams for our wedding in mid-June of this year. She has such a wide variety of interesting and delicious flavors for cakes and she offers a great tasting option if you're curious. We went with an earl grey cake with a passion fruit curd and it was as delicious as it was pretty. She was also so amazing at creating the cake design that we wanted and even worked with us to find the perfect design that sort of married all of the designs we were looking it. She was great about asking us for our wedding vision boards and floral / colors as well so that she could make sure that the cake would tie in perfectly. Highly recommend her if you are looking for some really cool flavors and a really talented and sweet baker in the SB area.

Buttrcream Cakes created the wedding cake of my dreams! From the moment I saw it, I was stunned by its beauty—it was truly a work of art. We chose a four-tier naked cake with lemon vanilla flavor, and every bite was delicious. The cake was delicately decorated with figs, berries, and a touch of greenery, bringing a natural elegance that matched our theme perfectly. The balance of flavors was spot-on, with the lemon and vanilla shining through in every bite. Perfection in every way! Thank you, Buttrcream Cakes, for making our wedding day even more special.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Gabby and Claudio Cakes! I found Gabby on Zola while planning our 120-person wedding. Though I reached out to other bakers, Gabby stood out with her variety of items, designs, and services. I am an indecisive person, so when I contacted Gabby, we only had a rough idea of what we wanted: a small cake and a dessert table. Gabby’s excellent communication skills helped us find exactly what we didn’t even know we wanted. She took our vague ideas and brought them to life with her creativity. Gabby met with us for a tasting, where we got to try an impressive selection of cake combinations. From what I recall, she offered more choices than any other baker we considered. While we aren’t typically cake people, every single thing we tasted was absolutely delicious. Our wedding was in Ventura County, and Gabby was able to provide delivery from LA. Our wedding started later than usual, and Gabby was flexible with a later delivery time, which was a huge help since our wedding was outdoors—we didn’t want desserts melting before the reception started. Even our coordinator mentioned how great this was since it’s not a standard service. In the end, we ordered around 19 dozen assorted pastries and a small cake for photos. The desserts were such a hit that they were gone almost immediately, and even months later, guests are still talking about how amazing everything was. Some even mentioned being disappointed they didn’t get to try anything because the treats disappeared so quickly. Throughout the whole process, Gabby was professional, knowledgeable, and communicated flawlessly. I truly wish all my vendors were as amazing as her. I highly, highly recommend Gabby, and I’m just waiting for another event to work with her again. Thank you so much, Gabby, for making our day so dreamy!

We began as a concession company providing cotton candy at sporting events. In the fall of 2021, we extended our brand by starting our own manufacturing plant. Sweet Buckets was born as an option for customers and businesses to purchase Cotton Candy and Gourmet popcorns direct from our company.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

King Marlon's Pastries 

5.0

  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA for additional fees

We are an online Dessert Shoppe based in New Orleans, La. Sourcing the freshest and most authentic ingredients. Using new and old-fashioned techniques to ensure the highest quality our customers expect. We specialize in Custom Cakes, Donut Pastries, Catering Events, pre-packaged Baked Goods, Party Treats & more.

King Marlon's Pastries was amazing in every aspect - communication, quality, taste, cost, and presentation! Marlon was amazing in accommodating our dietary requests. We are vegan and (mostly) sugar-free. We'd tried other bakeries but the quality was not great. We would have rather gotten a non-vegan cake that our guests could enjoy than have a vegan cake just to say it's vegan. However, King Marlon's Pastries did a phenomenal job! He was responsive and communicated clearly - he was also transparent about the options he could make for us and answered questions about ingredients willingly and enthusiastically. The presentation for the tasting was also amazing - he went above and beyond which gave us confidence in knowing he'd go above and beyond for our actual wedding cake. The cake itself tasted great - it was moist, not overly sweet, and complex enough to enjoy at a wedding. Thank you, Marlon! I look forward to being a repeat customer for other special cake needs.

Sweetness Cake Bakery

  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA for additional fees

Congratulations! This is an exciting time for you and I am thrilled to be a part of your celebration. I have been making custom cakes and desserts since 2012 and the best part about my job is YOU! I really enjoy meeting with couples, learning about their story, and coming up with a design that fits their wedding vision. I love to add meaningful details to cakes and treats, and I take great pride on the quality of the products we offer, both in look and in taste. I can't wait to discuss your wedding cake dessert dreams with you and add some sweetness to your celebration!

I cannot recommend Danielle enough. Where to start? Aside from her baking, she was wonderful to work with: kind, communicative, punctual and organized. My wife and I wanted a simple two-tier cake for our 45 person wedding, so we reached out to Danielle to schedule a "Cake Chat". (We selected three different cake flavor combinations, and then met up with Danielle to taste test and discuss what we wanted.) We were able to narrow down the flavors that we wanted this way. Plus, the cake was so good, we decided to add a third tier. :) Danielle is also able to accommodate for vegan and gluten-free diets. We were able to place a small order of vegan and gluten-free cupcakes to accommodate our guests with different dietary restrictions. These were delicious as well. The day of our wedding, Danielle and her husband arrived right on time with our cake and cupcakes. All of our guests loved the cake so much, and my wife and I are looking forward to all of the extra cake leftovers in our freezer. PS, if you need a flavor recommendation: the vegan chocolate cake with raspberry jam and cream cheese frosting is the way to go!
