Violet Cake Co. was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Communication was always pleasant and they responded quickly. Attention to detail was meticulous. Everything was delivered on time and properly stored- which they set up with the venue ahead of time in case it was hot which it was! The end products were beautiful and tasted delicious - our guests raved about them. We are so grateful to Violet Cake Co. for helping make our special day even more perfect. Thanks Malissa.

Sarah's Dessert Bar 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
  • Serves Carlsbad, CA

Hi! My name is Sarah Martinez, Owner, Founder and Pastry Chef of Sarah’s Dessert Bar. I started this business officially in January 2022 after unofficially starting it from my home making desserts and birthday cakes for friends and family. It quickly grew to the point I could no longer work my other job at the hotel I was working at, and had to choose between the two. I chose to take the leap of faith and embark on my own entrepreneurial journey.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarah's Dessert Bar provided the perfect sweet ending to our wedding day! Communication with Sarah was clear and prompt throughout the planning process, which I greatly appreciated during an otherwise hectic time. The desserts Sarah created were simply delicious - our guests couldn't stop raving about the Oreo cookie shooters, chocolate covered strawberries and PB&J Macaroons. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted so fresh. For the quality and taste, Sarah's prices were very reasonable in my opinion. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah's Dessert Bar to any couple looking to add some yummy treats that your guests will love to your special day. Sarah helped make our wedding celebration even more special with her talents!

We hired Natalia with Little Lulus for our wedding last month and the cake and desserts were incredible!! Finding a bakery that can do both the wedding cake small desserts was surprisingly challenging, and we are so glad we found Natalia. The wide range of desserts she creates the presentation is what drew us to her, and she was so sweet to work with! We opted for the strawberry filled 4/6/8 wedding cake, which was soooo delicious, and about 7 other smaller desserts. The fresh fruit tarts & cannolis were my favorite. My husband and I are excited to work with her again for future birthdays & celebrations, and wish her all the best. Thank you again!! Kelly & Gabriel

Welcome to Connor's Craft Cakes, your passport to a delectable journey through the world of artisanal cakes. My goal with each cake is to ensure that your identity is expressed in an artistic centerpiece cake that you couldn’t live without.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Connor to make our wedding cake and we are tremendously happy we did. We were in the unique position of planning our California wedding while living in Massachusetts, but Connor was awesome to work with. He was extremely communicative over phone and email, he offered to ship samples to us (but we ended up trying them when we happened to be in California for other reasons), and he understood our colorful/wildflower vision perfectly. He sent us some mock-ups of the cake design, we iterated a few times, and the final product was exactly what we were looking for. The flavors were also delicious - we ended up going with 3 flavors because we loved them so much. Quite possibly the most delicious cake I've eaten.. and we received so many compliments from our guests. We are just so happy. Thank you Connor for making our spectacular wedding cake - you'll be hearing from us for every single anniversary to follow :)

The Sweet Sicilian Bakery 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Carlsbad, CA

Welcome. The story behind The Sweet Sicilian Bakery: Well first off, I love baking and creating beautiful art, but beyond that, this bakery is near and dear to my heart. This love may have started with my Dad's bakery we had growing up, Salvatore's Bread and Pizza Bakery. He made fresh Italian bread for many restaurants in our town! Also growing up in a large Sicilian family was something that was so special, there were so many gatherings and events happening all the time ( oh, and Sunday dinner at my Nonna's house every week, yum!) There was a lot of love, laughs, and FOOD! The most special and delicious treats were the Italian cookies!

The Sweet Sicilian Bakery was an exceptional choice for our wedding cake and desserts. From our very first interaction, Christina’s clear, professional, and reassuring communication put us completely at ease. Her work was nothing short of outstanding—elegant, refined, and crafted with incredible attention to detail. Not only was Christina wonderful and friendly to work with, but the cake flavors she created were also unique, balanced, and absolutely delicious. She exceeded our expectations by arriving promptly and executing the cake design flawlessly. The sugar flowers added a stunning and creative touch without being overly sweet. We are truly grateful to Christina and The Sweet Sicilian Bakery for making our special day even more perfect. Thank you Christina! Looking forward to our next event with you. ️

WOW! Hazel & Jade blew our socks off with the wedding cake that they made for us. I could not recommend them more. Not only was our cake incredibly delicious, but it was so beautiful to look at. I didn't want to cut into it; that is how gorgeous it was! It was really important to me to have a vegan wedding cake, and this team just blew it out of the water. We ended up choosing the gluten-free chocolate chip, and it was so moist and delicious. I am just sad we don't live in town, and we will have to wait until we are back to visit this place! If you are looking for a delicious wedding cake, look no further because you've found it! Thank you to your team from the bottom of our hearts!

Jenny is by training a Medicinal Chemist with a science background. Learning from an early age in her mother’s kitchen in England, she has always loved to bake treats, and it turned into a business in 2010.

My now-husband and I ordered our wedding cake from JennyWenny Cakes and it was INCREDIBLE! We got the carrot cake with a modified cream cheese frosting (to make it a little less sweet--so kind of them to accommodate us!) that was absolutely delicious. Our families loved the cake, too, and everyone told us that it was the best carrot cake they had ever had. Also, the cake was designed exactly as we had specified--"nearly naked" with some gold leaf. Simple but elegant! My mom wanted to dress it up even more with a little cake topper, so we added that, too :) Thank you, JennyWenny Cakes team, for such a wonderful experience! I highly recommend this company for all of your wedding cake needs.

They were so kind, responsive, and helpful from start to finish. Our tasting was such a fun experience as every flavor we tried was delicious and unique, making it so hard to choose! They brought our vision to life perfectly! The cake they made was almost identical to our inspiration photo and even more beautiful in person. We had a two-layer cake along with three different mini cake flavors, and every single one was incredible. You can truly tell they love what they do and put so much care and love into their work. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good everything was! We’re so glad we chose them and would 10/10 recommend their bakery to anyone looking for something that’s both stunning and delicious.

  • Serves Carlsbad, CA

Handmade with love and the best ingredients in NYC since 1995. We bake fresh and ship same-day, so cookies arrive ready to enjoy (though we recommend warming them in the oven for that famous gooey center).

We brought out Levain cookies for our guests as the last round was called at the bar, they were the perfect delicious last note before we headed off to the after party. Everyone scrambled for them, and I saw a few getting stashed in pockets for later! My favorite text from a friend the next morning was: "I have to say, Levain cookies for breakfast is def a thing. Fills the belly. Calms the demons." :)

We decided to not do a traditional cake for our wedding and it was the best decision we could have made. Ana's cupcakes were delicious and a huge hit with our guests. We had hardly any cupcakes left at the end of the night. Not only were the cupcakes delicious, but they were also beautifully decorated and fit exactly with our outdoor wedding. We went with vanilla cupcakes with a vanilla buttercream. Ana executed our vision perfectly and we would definitely use her again for future events.
