    Amazing DOG!!!!

    Have you ever seen the incredibly realistic looking cakes of dogs? My daughter wanted to surprise her "then fiance" with a replica of his dog, Nestle, for the groom's cake. When the groom saw the cake, he was literally brought to tears! To say that Lauren delivered is an understatement! "Nestle" was at the wedding in all his glory and guests literally had to be told it was a cake. They thought it was a statue! Guests throughout the wedding were taking photos and video of the groom's cake. It was definitely a highlight of the event. This is not to say the bride's cake was not beautiful as well, but having a cake like the "Nestle" cake made my daughter's wedding even more of a special event than it already was! If you are blessed enough to be able to schedule Lauren for your wedding, do so! Of all the "add-ons" that you consider for a wedding, this is the one that will have the greatest impact. Lauren will elevate your event to a whole new level!!!!

    Surprise Grooms Cake

    As a bride it was so special to have the cake of my dreams but it was even better to surprise my groom with a LIFE SIZED replica of his dog (Nestle). But not make of cake, but brownies (because of his love for brownies). Every one of our guests were amazed by the beautiful creation that Lauren made. There were countless photos and videos taken of this amazing cake. Lauren is so talented and a caring genuine person on top of that. If you are able to book Lauren to create a cake of your dreams, do so! Your search is over. She is so easy to work with and is makes some of the most delicious cakes (and brownies) I have ever tasted. I can not thank Lauren enough for helping me surprise my groom and make my day so special.

    Highly Recommend!!!

    Highly recommend Fancy Cakes by Lauren. Fancy Cakes stepped in when our initial bakery closed last minute. I am so happy that we were referred to Fancy Cakes by Lauren because they delivered a perfectly delicious and beautiful cake! The office was so easy to work with as well!

    Lauren is Amazing

    Lauren was so easy to work with and she really nailed my cake. We were a very traditional decor couple and she made us an all cake, square tiered, lemon and chocolate cakes, with real flowers wrapped around the cake. She easily worked with my venue, planner, and florist seamlessly. Her mocha filling is wonderful and I could eat a whole bowl! You really can't go wrong choosing Lauren and her wonderful cake designs.

    Amazing amazing amazing

    The best of the best! Lauren was so easy to work with from the first email I sent her. She goes above and beyond with her cakes. She knows exactly how to bring your vision to life. Literally! Her cake is so delicious it was hard to decide which flavor of cake to go with at the cake tasting. No matter which one you go with, you cannot go wrong. I got the most compliments at my wedding over my cake. People are still talking about it to this day! If you want to wow your guests with your cake, Fancy Cakes by Lauren is your person! So beyond happy we went with her!

    Elegant White Wedding Cake

    I used Fancy Cakes by Lauren for my wedding cake and couldn't be happier! Lauren made the wedding cake process a breath of fresh air during all the chaos of planning a wedding. I had a dream of a very traditional elegant white wedding cake that had attributes from my grandparents wedding cake. I knew that this wasn't an easy task and Lauren would be the only one to make this vision a reality. Lauren exceeded all expectations as the cake was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Not only did it look amazing, but it tasted just as good as it looked. During the cake testing, we loved all of the choices and had a very hard time choosing because all the flavors tasted so wonderful. Our wedding guest still talk about our wedding cake and how it was one to remember. Lauren created a cake that my family and I will cherish forever. I would highly recommend Fancy Cakes by Lauren for all your cake needs.

    Best wedding cakes ever!

    We wanted a very specific grooms cake and Lauren made it perfectly. Not only was it incredible, it tasted amazing. The guests were all blown away. The brides cake was gorgeous and I still dream about how it tasted. We did the Champagne cake with raspberry filling

    Best Cakes ever

    Lauren and her team are immaculate bakers and cake designers. They are all so nice- I missed my first tasting and they allowed me to come by and pick up the tasting pieces and enjoy them at home and take notes then we came back for the design meeting. She has a great way of collaborating with you and figuring out your dream cake with it being your idea- not something imposed on you :)

    Lauren and Melinda were so amazing to work with and our cake exceeded our expectations. They were extremely responsive and helped us figure out exactly what we wanted while still keeping our budget in mind. The guests raved about the quality and how great it tasted and I was so happy when my mom sent a piece to our hotel room after the wedding that evening - it was the best thing to finish off an amazing wedding day with! We would recommend Fancy Cakes to everyone!

    Lauren created a beautiful and tasty wedding cake. She was very thorough in understanding our wants and desires. She worked with us in a timely manner. The cake arrived at the venue in excellent shape. Our champagne cake with raspberry puree filling and butter cream icing was out of this world delicious. It was just as we expected and our guests raved over the beauty and taste of the cake. I will definitely use Lauren again in the future and I highly recommend her.

    Lauren with Fancy Cakes did our cake for our daughter's wedding. She was awesome to work with and made it exactly as Kristen hoped for. She wanted one side of the cake to be a brides traditional looking cake and the back side to be the grooms cake. The Groom's side was to be a rock climbing side of a mountain with two people climbing to the top. Lauren was able to make it without any fondant which was our request and it turned out perfect - actually beyond perfect!!!! The flavors also matched the perfection on the outside. We cannot say enough about this experience.

    Thank you!!!!!

    Wow! I cannot get over how AMAZING Lauren and her entire team is. We had an amazing experience with them. From the initial meeting to the wedding day, everything was LITERALLY seamless. I gave her the tough task of wanting a cake that was beautiful, architectural, simple yet complex, and represented me. Of course, we had only spent 5 minutes together! She immediately sketched out an idea and it was THE ONE. It was perfect, and it translated on wedding day to absolute brilliance. If I could give 10 stars, I certainly would!

    I would highly recommend Fancy Cakes by Lauren! Both our wedding and groom's cake were delicious and looked amazing! We only made it home with half of our topper because we kept going back for seconds. Lauren is upbeat and personable and made the whole wedding cake experience fun!

    Lauren is exceptionally talented, and was so fun to work with! At the consultation, she was able to take my ideas as a bride, and sketch them into a masterpiece. (Not to mention her cakes were the most delicious of all the tastings! Toffee caramel filling - YES please!) When we finally saw the cake at our wedding reception - we were amazed at its stunning beauty!!!!! It was everything I'd dreamed of, and MORE! Guests gasped when they saw it, and commented how tasty all the different layers were. After the wedding, we froze the leftovers, and ate on it for weeks. YUM!!! Fancy Cakes by Lauren is a top-notch bakery, and I highly recommend it to any bride. Thanks to Lauren and her wonderful team, we had the PERFECT, dreamy wedding cake!! :)

    If you are looking for a great vendor to perform top notch work for your wedding, look no further. Fancy Cakes by Lauren is the best place to go. I received the recommendation from a friend and decided to give this establishment a try. Let me say that I am very glad that we did!

    My fiancé (now husband) and I had three main factors in selecting a cake vendor 1. Professionalism 2. Quality of Service/
    Easy to work with, and 3. Price. Lauren hit all three of these areas out of the park. The ambience of her studio was welcoming and inviting. The sample cake selection was incredible (we ate all of them and could not decide which flavors to pick), the pricing was very reasonable for the area, and the portfolio of cake designs were impressive to say the least. Lauren gets to know each couple and helps them to select the best design for their wedding. The contract and design process is very simple and straight forward. There are no hidden fees! Her manager, Marissa was the best. She followed up with me during the process and made certain that we were still on schedule and/or checking in to see if we wanted any changes. On the wedding day, the delivery was timely, quick and efficient. A wonderful and professional set up! 5 stars out of 5

    We had so much fun during our consult with Lauren! She was so friendly, and understood our vision almost instantly for the bridal cake. We were unsure of what we should do for the grooms cake, and she immediately starting sketching the most perfect idea! The cakes were all so delicious, it was hard to decide the flavors we wanted. I initially thought that we were getting a ton of cake in comparison to the guest count, however, ALL the cake was gone by the end of the night! It was a huge hit, we are so glad we chose Lauren!

    Lauren and her team do some fantastic artistry if you want a really wild grooms cake, from buildings to animals to food items, she can recreate anything in cake form. We didn't do a grooms cake, but picked her because of her fun personality and the fact the taste of her cake and filling were phenomenal! Everyone at our wedding commented on how great the cake tasted. My husband cannot wait until our year anniversary so we can cut into our saved cake and I hope to use her again for other events in the future.

    Lauren was amazing! I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted - just had a few things I liked in mind and a picture of my wedding gown. She worked her magic.... she looked at the picture and designed a PERFECT cake for our special day. It was 5 tiers of yummy goodness..... her Irish Creme with English Toffee couldn't have been more luscious! No hassle, spot on design, and just a FUN person to work with. LOVE LOVE LOVE her!

    As you can see by the flood of reviews, Lauren and her team are truly special! From our very first meeting, she was so fun and easy to talk to- she made me even more excited about my wedding than I already was! I wore a pale pink wedding dress with ruffles on the bottom, and I wanted a cake to match. Not only did Lauren PERFECTLY capture my vision, the cake was sooo delicious- definitely not your standard wedding cake! I can't wait to eat our frozen pieces in a few more weeks : )

    Lauren was amazing and we were lucky to be able to have our cake made by someone so incredibly talented!
