I own a large wedding plannng company in the wine country and have used Michelle Maries as a cake vendor for over 10 years. I have had nothing but compliments from my brides and their guests, on the quality of the cake and personally have had a wonderful working relationship with them. Kathy always gets back to me and the cakes are delivered on time. I continue to recommend them, with confidence, to our brides.

My wife and I used Fleur de Lisa and we were extremely impressed by the artistry and flavor of our cake. She made an unbelievably beautiful 3 tiered cake of vanilla, lemon and dark chocolate with a Hawaiian theme. She hand crafted bamboo sticks and Hibiscus flowers out of sugar that were so realistic it blew my mind. After we hired her to make our cake my wife was watching a wedding special on Oprah and there was Lisa handing out cakes she had made with her former employer. Oprah was as impressed as we were

Just got a Park Avenue Cake from Michelle Marie’s last week. Unfortunately, it was all dried out and a great disappointment. Not sure what goes on with service there as I waited for quite awhile to be served while the counter person cleaned the cases. Finally she asked if I needed assistance (No, just standing here watching you clean because I have nothinh better to do.) I hope they read the comments and go over basic service with their employees. Used to eat lucnh there but, stopped doing that as the waiters and counter help were neither. I do think their tarts are decent if you get one while it’s still fresh.

We celebrated my Mom’s 80th Birthday on Saturday with 70 friends and Michelle Marie’s Fruit Basket cake. It’s one of our favorites and people LOVED it!!! We organize many of our gatherings around their special cakes. Who can resist the Chocolate Overload cake during the holidays? And, their marzapan “potato” cake has become a tradition on St. Patrick’s Day. When we want a special treat with no occasion at all, we get one of their eclairs–delicious!!

We had a very limited budget for our wedding three years ago and used Della Fattoria in Petaluma as our baker. What an amazing cake! We ordered the Tuxedo cake. It cost $231 and fed an army. All my foodie friends remarked on how amazingly good the cake tasted. Even if you’re not getting married, I recommend their fabulous cakes. We picked up the cake ourselves. Everyone was wonderful at Della, they have my undying gratitude. The head pastry chef was fabulous to work with.

Oh Costeaux… I loved this place and will miss their crab cakes. Unfortunately, they were the only negative thing about my wedding day. I met twice with Marin to design how my cake should look (to match my dress). When the cake arrived, it did not look anything like our design. It was not remotely attractive (had a top and bottom shell border and that was all). She informed me that she ‘thought it looked better without a design on it’. I am a baker as well, and being the bride, was extremely upset. Costeaux sent out another baker to try to fix the cake, but it did not help. I shutter everytime I think about that cake. Awesome tasting carrot cake though!

The best cake you can possibly eat would be by Pattycakes. Patty makes a cake that there is not a crumb left. No one can outdo Patty Forget.
