Nepita 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Hello everyone, my name is Terence and I am the owner of Nepita! I have always been passionate about sharing a culinary moment with strangers. Being trained and having worked in Michelin starred restaurants, I learned how to make all sorts of frozen confections. That shaped me in creating Nepita, an artisan ice cream pop up shop offering flavors inspired by the Mediterranean!

So lucky to come across a unique and passionate business to work with and offer to my guests! I wanted unique and unconventional flavors that would be unforgettable - the flavors are exceptional! I loved the koginut and candied tumeric ice cream and still talk about it to this day. I hope more people discover Nepita because it’s THAT good.

Milk Bar 

5.0

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Milk Bar is a sweet (and occasionally savory) shop that’s been turning familiar treats upside down and on their heads, shaking up the dessert scene since 2008. Bon Appetit magazine called us “one of the most exciting bakeries in the country.” But you can literally just call us Milk Bar. We’re not big on feeding the hype beast. But we’re super into feeding our flavorful treats to those who crave the unexpected.

Awarded Best of Zola
Milk Bar is one of our favorites and we thought it would be great to have a special touch from them for guests at our wedding. We ordered lots of cookies as wedding favors, displaying them as a 'cookie wall' near the exits. The cookies were amazing, guests loved them as a sweet treat to end the night, and the packaging is quintessentially Milk Bar and looked beautiful on display! Working with the Milk Bar team to get everything ordered and delivered at exactly the right time was easy and we're really happy with the result! Would highly recommend Milk Bar!

Empire Cake was a delicious addition to our wedding day! We went with Raspberry Lemon- it was so yummy, and we kept the design beautifully simplistic so it would be the perfect backdrop to add fresh flowers from our florist. The Empire team so helpful and communicative throughout the planning process. Shout out to Bonnie, who was our main point of contact. Highly recommend Empire for any of your cake needs!

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Create a customized cake or dessert menu to complement your wedding theme. Beginning with a sketch or just an idea, we can inspire you towards the most brilliant creations. Additional dessert options include dessert tapas, dessert buffets and or a gift to sweetly end your celebration. Our specialty: beautiful and delicious. We offer traditional cakes as well as keto, vegan, sugar free and gluten free options. Currently, Aromas is not offering live tastings however our couples are having samplers shipped to them or they pick them up in manhattan. Thank you for considering us for this very special celebration.

We are science people so precision and details are a huge part of our lives. This vintage buttercream cake was exactly what we envisioned and asked for. The flavor mimicked strawberry dipped chocolate and the fresh strawberries were cut exactly as we asked. Perfect. Did you know that Aromas makes gifts! We added a few of those and our guest are still talking about the infused lollipops. A gem of an experience.

The Evercake 

5.0

  • Starts at $9
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

The Evercake concept started as I was ordering flowers online while skimming Pinterest for my toddler's birthday cake. I wanted a beautiful cake that I could add to a cart and have delivered. Why didn't this exist? A few months later, The Evercake was born. We are different in that we are strictly buttercream based (no overworked fondant here). Our recipes are tried and true, slightly less sweet, and with designs aimed to be worthy of your celebrations. We don't have a traditional storefront with overhead to worry about it, which means we don't have to mark up our cakes to account for this.

We were thrilled with the wedding cake and desserts from The Evercake. From the very beginning, they were quick to reply to our messages and easy to communicate with, which made the process of selecting and customizing our cake a breeze. On the day of the wedding, the cake was absolutely beautiful and looked perfect in our photos. But most importantly, it tasted amazing! Our guests raved about how delicious the cake and desserts were. The Evercake team truly helped make our special day even more perfect.

Daniel Colonel LLC 

5.0

  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Daniel Colonel loves telling stories through dessert. As a child, he was fascinated with food and always interested how it was made. He took his love for food, and sweet tooth to the Culinary Institute of America where he graduated in Baking and Pastry Management. Daniel's favorite part of the process is connecting with the couple and getting to know their love story. Wedding cakes with sugar flowers are his specialty but during the pandemic, he has began other sweet ventures including mini premium desserts that are served in cones and cookie boxes.

I've hired Daniel with Bocconi Foods for multiple clients and each one has been over the moon happy! The quality is fantastic.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was initially attracted to Cupcake Chromatography because some of their profits go to support STEM programs, which I think it awesome! But I ended up loving it for many more reasons! Nadia is really easy to work with and we had fun brainstorming ideas for our midcentury themed wedding. She was able to make a gorgeous cake around our theme and even include our 4 cats into it! It came together so nicely and looked great at the wedding! She also worked with us on the flavors, we had 2 layers of chocolate orange cake and 2 layers of vanilla with strawberry filling. Both were melt in your mouth delicious! My husband is usually a chocolate cake person but the slice we did for our cake cutting was vanilla and he couldn't stop raving about it! It's honestly slight torture having to wait a year to eat the top layer. We both said we want to order other flavors for special occasions this year to have more of their cake!

Awarded Best of Zola
discovering Williamsburg Brooklyn in the early 90s - you found out about it before the rest of the world caught up. I was looking for a fun and yummy cake for my husband's 40th birthday so a friend of a friend recommended Allie. Checked out her Instagram (@bigdaysmallbudgetcakes), everything looked super cute, so I DMed her and told her only a few things - that my husband *loves* LEGO, tart flavors, and cheesecake. Pause... then Allie laughed and said "I know exactly what I'm gonna do" in this fun mysterious way. So forward a few weeks when she brought the surprise cake to the party, and YES, home. run. Allie baked a 4x2 LEGO brick cake (YES), with light sea blue frosting (his favorite color), a raspberry and cheesecake filling (he loves berries and New York Cheesecake), with a light fluffy interior that was *perfect* for a super hot BBQ day. His eyes lit up when he saw the cake, and it was sooo cute to watch him cut the cake together with our daughter for his big birthday. Just as awesome as the cake, was Allie herself. I immediately felt her positive energy and brightness when I talked to her on the phone. Meeting her in person was no different (she delivered it herself!!). Allie and her cake is one of those things where you taste it and you look up at her (with half-chewed cake in your mouth) and say "Holy crap, this is *amazing*, you gotta do your own thing one day!!". I can't wait to have another event to hire her for another fun and amazingly looking and tasting cake. Don't hesitate, hire. Allie!

Velvet Valley Cakes 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Welcome to Velvet Valley Cakes, where vintage charm meets modern flair. Inspired by the timeless techniques of classic cake decorating books, I bring a bygone era's elegance to life with intricate, handcrafted buttercream designs. My diverse upbringing in Queens, NY, has infused my creations with a unique fusion of flavors, reflecting the eclectic culinary landscape of my childhood. From traditional to unexpected, my cakes blend nostalgia with innovation, making every wedding celebration a sweet masterpiece.

We hadn’t initially anticipated wanting a vintage-style wedding cake, but once we saw Blair Gutierrez’s creations at Velvet Valley Cakes, we completely fell in love with the idea. Blair’s artistry and attention to detail were evident from the start, and the cake on our wedding day was nothing short of perfect—both visually stunning and absolutely delicious. Blair provided us with an exceptional tasting experience, delivering four different miniature cakes for us to try. Each cake was flawless, delivered without any issues, and gave us more than enough to sample and enjoy. The thoughtful presentation of the miniature cakes made the experience even more fun and memorable. With every flavor tasting so amazing, it was hard to narrow down our choices, but we ultimately decided on two flavors for our wedding cake (Earl Grey Lemon Blueberry & Mediterranean). From our first communication to the tasting process and all the way to our wedding day, everything with Velvet Valley Cakes was seamless, professional, and delightful. The cake was a true highlight of our celebration, and we are so grateful to Blair for making our wedding day even sweeter. We couldn’t recommend Velvet Valley Cakes more!

Carol brought my cake dreams to life! She was super communicative throughout the entire process and truly cared about my vision. The cake tasting process was seamless and all of the cake flavors I tasted were extraordinary. My husband who doesn’t even like cake was obsessed with how light and airy the cake was and flavorful the frosting and fillings were. We had a stunning 2-tier mini tall cake and 48 cupcakes and all were executed with such care. The cupcakes were so moist and flavorful and the same with the cake. I’ve never seen the cake at a wedding disappear so fast, my guests loved it all. The design was better than I even imagined and I’m so grateful for Carol and all the care she put into giving me the most special cake and cupcakes. She is a true artist, in flavor and design! And I work in the culinary industry, my standards are super super high. You won’t regret working with Carol for your wedding.

Working with Abigail at Rosebloom Cakes for our September 2025 wedding was nothing short of a wonderful experience! Very easy to communicate with, Abigail took time to understand our vision—and made great suggestions when we were unsure—and created a beautiful cake for us. She did a tasting with us at our home, which was, of course, super convenient, where we discussed flavors, aesthetics, and more. Our wedding cake turned out absolutely beautiful (photo attached), and it tasted great! 100% recommend working with Abigail for your next event. Not only is she very talented, but she is also very personable and generous, making the experience all the better.

True story -- when people first came up to the reception area from the separate space where we held cocktail hour to find their seat at our wedding, everyone immediately rushed to see Melissa's beautiful cake. I have photos of a huge crowd gathered around the cake, everyone's phone was out taking pictures as if this was a celebrity sighting or something! People literally had to be told several times to get to their seats because they were literally in awe of the amazing cake. The cake also tasted incredibly delicious, and the buttercream frosting was a huge hit. Melissa really goes out of her way to create incredibly intricate and magical designs and it's something we will remember for the rest of our lives! Her and her husband also delivered the cake to our venue directly and even got in touch directly with our venue contact weeks in advance to coordinate. They were super organized and knew just how to handle everything. Plus she uses all fair trade ingredients so you will actually be contributing to sustainable agriculture.
