    Sweet It Is! was the perfect choice for our wedding cake. The cake tasting kit we picked up was incredibly convenient, and they were very responsive to our emails throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, the cake was absolutely stunning - it looked exactly like the design we had discussed, and the taste was out of this world. Our guests raved about how delicious it was, and I even got to enjoy the leftovers for a whole week after the wedding! We couldn't be happier with the service and quality from Sweet It Is!, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their big day.

    Lori and her husband did an absolute FANTASTIC JOB!!!! I spoke to several different vendors but none of them would make the custom S’mores cake that I wanted until I found Sweet It Is! The cake was so beautiful I almost didn’t want to eat it, but it was soooo delicious. Definitely use them for your special event!!!

  • Beautiful and delicious wedding cake!!

    Lori did an AMAZING job with our wedding cake! We knew immediately from our initial tasting that we were going to go with Sweet It Is. We got a 4-tier cake with two flavors and two fillings: butterscotch sponge with cream cheese frosting and chocolate cake with a white chocolate Bailey’s frosting. It was absolutely gorgeous and so delicious. We had a line of guests going up for seconds! We are saving our top layer for our anniversary and are so excited to tuck into that in a year! We also rented a cake stand through her and the cake was so beautifully displayed!
