Dalana made the most delicious, moist beautiful bridal shower cake for us! Communicating with her was easy, stress free and she even delivered to the venue! I asked for a simple, elegant 2 tier cake and that was exactly what was delivered! Salted caramel pineapple, yum!

The cake and the giraffe did a beautiful job on our wedding cake and cupcakes. All of our wedding guests are still raving about how yummy the cupcakes were and being celiac was so happy to find a baker with gluten free options! So yummy and so beautiful!

Dalana from The Cake and the Giraffe created the most beautiful and delicious cake for my wedding. We picked the lemon meringue flavour and it was outstanding!! The buttercream is so silky, the lemon curd was perfectly tart and the cake light and moist. Our cake looked better than the inspiration photo we provided. I couldn’t be happier with how it looked. Dalana is so talented and we will definitely use The Cake and the Giraffe again for special occasions!

Dalana gets 10 stars; 5 for delivering exactly what she promised on time, on budget and with highest quality and another 5 stars for being a fantastic artist and creating an incredible cake not just for visual WOW impact but also perfect flavors, and the best tasting butter cream layers.She created a life size horned owl cake for my wife’s birthday. Horned owls are big birds, and the cake was so realistic some people could not believe it was a cake by just looking at it. I also wanted to make sure that it was not just a statue-like creation. She put in a lot of whimsy by creating a happy birthday note on a torn piece of paper held in the bird’s beak with a wink.Fantastic job Dalana. Thank you very much for making this occasion memorable.

Dalana made cake and cupcakes for our wedding, and they were simply divine. Everything was delicious and she was also able to make vegan, gluten-free cupcakes for some of our guests that have dietary restrictions. Dalana was also super responsive, friendly, and easy to work with. Just a lovely human! Highly recommend The Cake & The Giraffe for any wedding or event.

This was the best cake I have ever had. She did an amazing job creating exactly what I had asked for. This was a surprise for my girlfriend and she loved it so much that she cried when she saw it. Thank you so much for making our night so special. Highly recommended!!!!!

Dalana..thank you so much. The cake you made us was totally us. We loved the accents of the decorations from the Ichigo plushy you put on top to the colored decoration of the game themes we had envisioned. It was beautiful. Also...the flavor was amazing....the chocolate raspberry compote+ganache and vanilla+dulche de leche was highly enjoyed by our guests and us. We had also done the cake tradition of leaving a piece for an year. Even after the year...the cake was amazing. Thanks a bunch!

Not only were the cupcakes absolutely delicious (everyone kept asking me where they were from), but Dalana was so accommodating as I ordered, changed, re-ordered, and changed, my order numerous time due to ever-changing wedding plans with COVID. Thank you so much, Dalana! Your cupcakes were the perfect treat for our chilly outdoor wedding this weekend.

I'm really picky with desserts but WOW, I loved the cake Dalana made for my wedding. Not only was it beautiful but the flavours were perfect (even the fondant was delicious)! We ordered a lemon & blue velvet 3-tiered cake and everyone loved it. Had to ask the kitchen to bring out seconds for everyone! Working with Dalana was also the easiest experience ever - she even coordinated with our florist to match the flowers on the cake with my bouquet! If you're having trouble picking who to make your wedding cake, look no further.

Dalana made us the most beautiful and delicious mini cupcakes for our wedding! Our guests raved about the flavours. I thought we ordered too many, but honestly, there were very little left at the end of the night. Order more than you think you need because they are too yummy! We also ordered a small cake for cutting and I HIGHLY recommend the salted caramel pineapple cake. Not only is she talented, Dalana is super lovely too. Don’t sleep on The Cake and the Giraffe!

We hired Dalana to make our wedding cake and cupcakes back in October and they were perfect! We had ordered a tasting box from The Cake and The Giraffe and we were immediately sold as the flavours were heavenly, so much so that we couldn’t decide on just one flavour and ordered all three as cupcakes for our guests, who loved them! We ordered cupcakes in confetti, peanut butter and chocolate, and vanilla chai and our wedding cake was confetti - they were all beautiful and delicious! Dalana was also very professional to work with and super kind. We will for sure be ordering more cakes from The Cake and The Giraffe in the future!

Wow! Our wedding cake was made by the cake and the giraffe and we wouldn't have changed anything! It was both beautiful and delicious! We had the salted caramel banana, which was to die for! (photos by Sachin Khona)

Our wedding cake was perfect! We got the “not your average vanilla” and it was so delicious. The cake also looked exactly as we had discussed. We also ordered a slab on the side to make it easier for our venue to serve and we chose the neopolitan flavour for the slab and our guests loved it!

Dalana is amazing at what she does! My daughter’s birthday cake turned out dazzling and delectable. It was exactly what I wanted.
