    I’ve used Millie several times for my cake needs, and recently hired her to bake our wedding cake in September, 2017. As always, she did a downright fabulous job. The cake was incredibly beautiful, and exactly what I had described to her that I had wanted. And Y’ALL – it was DELICIOUS!! We went with yellow cake, with milk chocolate filling and butter cream icing. It was so moist and perfect!! We provided cake flowers (including succulents) for Millie to add to our cake and she did a beautiful job arranging those on our cake. I will continue to use Millie for my future cake needs!! Thanks again Millie!!

    Millie did such an amazing job with our wedding cakes! We had a pretty traditional bride's cake which was amazingly delicious and so beautiful! Exactly like her sample photos. She even placed the flowers/cake topper perfectly and provided a cake stand. The groom's cake had a "traditional tattoo" theme which needs a certain level of artistry and technique to pull off - Millie pulled it off perfectly! It was probably the most talked about thing at our wedding. Definitely a special touch and the groom loved it and couldn't get over how accurate the artwork was. Any time I need a cake in DFW I am definitely reaching out to Millie again! Amazing value for the quality, and you deal directly with the owner who is incredibly professional and friendly.

    I cannot say enough good things about Takes the Cakes by Millie. She designed the most beautiful and thoughtful cake for my son's first birthday party. Millie was a dream to work with and the cake was the hit of the party! The details of the cake were amazing, and all eatable! And not only did his cake fit the theme to a T (camping theme), but it was moist and delicious! I will continue to use Takes the Cakes by Millie for all future events and highly recommend her to family and friends. Thank you Millie for making such a special cake for my son's first birthday!

    I absolutely loved the cake! It was delicious and looked stunning. Millie did a great job. She was so easy to work with and very quick to respond if I had any questions. The cake was delivered and set up on time. I was so impressed with Millie throughout the whole wedding planning process. I would definitely recommend Millie to others for a wedding cake. Her work is fantastic and the cake tasted delicious. Thank you Millie!

    We requested a Marine theme groom cake. Even though I am familiar with Millie's great work, I and everyone at the venue were amazed by the intricate attention to detail. Simply beautiful and stunning! Thank you Millie for another masterful work of art!

    Millie with Takes the Cakes did the most beautiful wedding cake for me. I was completely stunned when I saw it. I have used Millie several times and am always amazed at how responsive, talented and easy to work with she is. I would highly recommend her for any cake, she strives to go above and beyond her clients expectations.

    My wife and I were extremely pleased with our shower cake, wedding cake, and couple's cake. Millie created a beautiful tiered cake that tasted just as wonderful as it looked. Her cakes are always lovely, no matter the event, and we would recommend her to anyone who enjoys cake.

    We had called and emailed a picture of the wedding cake to about 4 different wedding cake companies. Most prices were too high and the staff impersonal. We were so pleased with Takes the Cake for several reasons; her prices beat the other bids, she was very pleasant to work with, the cake was absolutely beautiful, and it tasted great - very moist and delicious. She delivered the cake right on time and it looked just like the picture we sent. I would recommend Takes the Cake to anyone needing a special cake. I was pleasantly surprised that she set aside an extra box with a cake for the bride and groom to have on their first anniversary. She was very professional. Thank you Millie.

    Millie made us the MOST BEAUTIFUL wedding cake we'd ever seen!! She listened to our ideas, threw in some fabulous suggestions, and the result was stunning. Many guests commented about how they normally don't like the taste of wedding cake, but that this one was delicious! Honestly, we hate fondant, but love the clean look it gives. Millie was able to create an incredibly smooth surface without using fondant. She also double-stacked the layers so that there was chocolate and white cake in each slice. It was so perfect we almost didn't want to cut into it! Best of all, she was completely affordable.

    Thanks, Millie!!

    Mille did such an amazing job on our cakes for our wedding. Everyone loved them and wanted to know where we got our cake. Mille was very friendly and easy to work with and made my wedding go smooth with an on time delivery. She even was willing to meet with me after work as I work in healthcare and have an awkward schedule. I would highly recommend takes the cakes any day and will use her again.

    Millie did such an amazing job on wedding cake. I arranged a day full of cake tasting appointments for my husband and I; Millie was the first on our list. After meeting with Millie and tasting her amazing creations, we canceled all of our other appointments. I ordered a 4-tier butter cream icing cake in layered of French vanilla and chocolate. I found a picture online of a cake I liked, I brought it to Millie and she executed the design and detail exactly to the picture. Millie offered a very flexible payment plan option, which was wonderful. Millie was very personable and genuine and baked such an amazing wedding cake.

    Takes the Cakes by Millie is the best of the best! Millie is a joy to work with. Her cakes are true works of art. The wedding shower cake she recently did for me was the hit of the shower. It tasted as great as it looked! I highly recommend Millie to everyone I know. Takes the Cakes by Millie is who I will use for all my future parties and events.

    Millie did a great job. She was very patient as we looked through her cake design and options. She made open suggestions with the plan we had in mind. Millie was very professional during our interactions with her. The cakes arrived on time and were very well done. On top of all that, the cakes tasted wonderful!

    Millie is fantastic! I found her on the internet while planning my daughter's wedding. We met with her in her home office, myself, my daughter, future son in law and his mother. She had several taste samples ready of both cake, and filling options. She listened to my daughter as to flavors and styles, and we looked at a huge variety of cakes until my daughter found just what she wanted. We selected a 3 tier lemon, with a scrumptious raspberry filling. The groom's cake was a chocolate, with rich chocolate frosting and huge chocolate dipped strawberries "dressed" in tuxedos. Both were beautiful, moist and delicious. We received many compliments at the reception. Mill is so easy to work with, and I'm glad we found her!

    Our wedding cake from Takes the Cakes by Millie was perfect! The design was beautiful, the cake was delicious, and the price was very reasonable. I have to say that Millie was not my first choice. I was a little hesitant to use with a baker that worked out of their home, so I went with a baker that had a store front. Two month before the wedding that baked closed their store and disappeared with my deposit. Searching for a new baker I came across Millie’s website again and the calendar on her site (which by the way I love that she posts a calendar of her availability) showed her as available for my wedding date. I emailed her to schedule a consultation and tasting appointment and she responded to me within hours, not days. The appointment was scheduled for me, my husband, and my mother in Millie’s home. I was worried that a meeting in someone’s home might be awkward but I was pleasantly surprised when Millie greeted us at the door and took us into her very comfortable and professional home office. We tasted cakes, icing, and fillings, which were all super yummy. Millie even packed up some extra to take back to my husband who was not able to make it to the meeting. The day of the wedding Millie showed up exactly when she said she would with exactly what we had ordered. She placed the cake on the cake table, she let my dad put the cake topper on and used some of the extra flowers to decorate the cake because I had forgot to prepare something ahead of time. Our experience with Takes the Cakes by Millie was wonderful and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a beautiful and tasty cake.
