About Violet Cake Co.

VIOLET CAKE CO.

OWNER/OPERATOR

I'm an artist who loves cake. I graduated from the USC Roski School of Fine Art with a BA in Fine Art and Italian. In 2008 I began my official culinary journey, working for some of the top cake companies in the US before opening my own San Diego wedding cake studio in 2020.

All our wedding cakes are unique and made to your exact specifications. Because we prepare all our cakes with fresh and locally outsourced ingredients, Violet Cake Co. cakes are always moist, flavorful and delicious. We have many cake flavors which can be iced with fondant or our delicious Swiss buttercream.

Would ABSOLUTELY recommend Violet Cake Co.
We worked with Violet Cake Co. for our wedding at Wedgewood Weddings at The Headquarters, and everything was perfect! We chose to have a small cake for our cake cutting and cupcakes for the rest of our guests, which worked out wonderfully. For our cake, we asked for a small vintage-style design that incorporated a figurine of our sweet pup, and they did such an amazing job bringing the idea to life. It was such a fun and personal detail to have as part of our wedding day, and the cake turned out exactly how we had envisioned it. We were so happy with everything and would absolutely recommend Violet Cake Co. to anyone looking for beautiful and personalized desserts for their wedding or special event!

Good & Just OK
We had a bumpy start to communication, but the taste and flavors were irresistible so we booked. The wedding cake was A stellar, beautiful and designed exactly as expected. The cupcakes were definitely disappointing in size as compared to the price. These are not a standard size gourmet cupcake. More like a two bite cupcake. I had really shopped around and made the mistake of not knowing the size that Violet Cake offered, so that is on me. I would suggest that you clarify that Prior to purchase. They were beautifully decorated and tasted delicious, just really small and unexpected. Good thing I had plenty for guests to have more than one. I WOULD use Violet Cake Co again, but not for cupcakes.

Thank you Tracy for your comments. I'm glad you liked the flavors and the cake. The cupcakes are categorized into standard size and minis. I don't know how to upload the picture but we got one of your cupcake table. Those are indeed our standard size cupcakes. Our gourmet cupcakes are larger and they are all listed on the website. Overall, I'm glad your wedding went well, best wishes.

Beautiful cake and delicious flavors!
We enjoyed our experience with Violet Cake Co! Maria was very responsive to our questions via email. It was easy to set up a pick-up delivery date at Malissa's home bakery. We ended up choosing the maracuja flavor for our 2-tier wedding cake, plus limoncello for cupcakes. Both flavors are delicious, but that maracuja flavor is 10/10 AMAZING, I still dream about eating it to this day. For the design, we sent a few inspo pictures and the cake turned out exactly how we wanted it. It was so cute and perfect. Thank you Violet Cake Co.!

Great dessert vendor!
I was so glad I found Violet Cake Co for our wedding desserts! I really wanted those “coquette” cakes, turns out they are also called “lambeth” cakes and they’re so beautiful and elegant. I was so happy that they were also able to provide a variety of desserts (cupcakes, brownies, tarts, cream puffs) because I really wanted variety. The flavors of cake are delicious and unique and the prices are very fair! I’d definitely recommend them.
