She made my wedding cake, it was beautiful and so delicious. I almost didn't want to save the top of my cake for our anniversary because I wanted more cake!

Tawanda did an excellent job for our wedding the past Saturday. She was so easy to work with and I can't say enough good things about our experience. The cake and cupcakes were STUNNING and they tasted even better. Would highly recommend her for all your wedding needs. Everyone at the wedding raved about the cupcakes, and even took some home for later. 10/10!!!

Cakes by Tawanda did an amazing job. On our wedding day, the cake was delivered on time, looked gorgeous, and was very delicious. I didn't want to cut it because that's how beautiful it was. If you need a cake for any occasion, Cakes by Tawanda is the place to go. Thanks for adding to my special day.

I'm very disappointed. I ordered a birthday for my husband that I was to pick up today at 5pm, his birthday is tomorrow,. I went to the bakery at 4:45pm and the place was dark and the door was locked. I called Twanda and no answer. I waited until 6:40pm and I called again. No answer. I have to pick up a cake from the grocery store and wrote on it myself because the bakery was closed. Why am I so upset, I had surgery and I'm unable to drive so i had to incovenience someone to drive me 45 minutes to pick up a cake and she wasn't there. It's 10:25pm and still no call. Very unprofessional and I will not use this bakery again.

1:13 Re: Custom Cake Request AA Hello Tawanda, I am very disappointed that I sent a picture of how I wanted the cake that I was gifting to my Goddaughter and was assured it could be done.As you see from the picture attached that is not what I received.The symbol on the hat is a cross she graduated to be a nurse not a nun. I would of preferred to be informed that what I requested could not be done and had the option to choose if I wanted to proceed or look elsewhere instead of doing it however you wanted without my consent. At the end of the day I did pay alot of money for this cake because I wanted it to be perfect and I seen you had been on Bake it like Buddy. Sincerely, Brenda Martinez

I spoke with Tawanda, I found her to be pleasantly down to earth. I told her I was pleased with her website. I asked if she could create a cake for a gamer. A grown gamer! I asked if she could make it happen within a weeks time. She told me absolutely. When I arrived to pick it up, she presented me with a beautiful cake. I was afraid the cake would not be favorable. (In my experience, you substitute flavor for beauty or vice versa) I was wrong!! People kept coming back for seconds. The fresh strawberry filling was outstanding! "Chefs Kiss"!! When I tell you there was nothing but the cardboard leftover, everything including the "thank you" disc was edible and quite delicious!! I wasn't disappointed at all!! Thanks again for making part of my party successful. Highly recommended!!

They went way out of their way to fix up a cake for a birthday party on short notice. Excellent! Both the cake and the service.

Tawanda did an amazing job! The attention to detail on the cake was just as phenomenal as the taste. I am still in aww over it! Very impressed! Thank you for making it such a special day for us. We are truly thankful for your work!

What a miracle worker!!!! We used Cakes by Tawanda for our special event and it was simply amazing. W thought I knew what kind of cake we wanted then Tawanda sat with us and made suggestions that not only made sense but helped ensure our party centerpiece was perfect. There are hundreds of Cake specialty shops but Cakes by Tawanda is the best hands down. Just to let you know how good and perfect her cakes are, we traveled 6 one way to get this cake and it even held up perfectly on the drive home. Thanks for making our party special.
Our small wedding cake and cupcakes were done by Tawanda. The entire process with her was not as smooth as my other vendors and I think is because we didn’t spend as much. Our wedding was 65 people and we were doing other desserts as well. Tawanda’s communication was not there several times throughout the process. The automatic response you get is that they respond within 24 hours, they don’t. There were several times I had to send a follow up email. Brides, if you want to feel any what special (similar to how my other vendors treated me), this isn’t the place. We had a tasting that I had to initiate and get information on. The cake at the tasting was good. Tawanda never spoke about pricing throughout the process, just sent us an invoice. Didn’t give us an option to have the cake delivered and pay a fee, just told us to pick it up (on our wedding day). The cake itself was delicious and gorgeous, but we received so many complaints about the cupcakes being dry ?.. embarrassing. I had great wedding vendors, I kind of wish I went a different route with our cake, which I’m surprised about since she’s won food network awards. But the taste and customer service just wasn’t there for me as it should be for a wedding

I have used Mrs. Tawanda for all of my occasions for the past 10 years. I have never been let down. She always supersedes my exceptions and for this I will continue to use her business and recommend her anytime anyone needs a cake. Thank you again for making my day a success.

Tawanda provided the most beautiful cake for my daughter's college graduation! Not only was it impressively beautiful, the flavor was awesome. People couldn't get enough of it. This cake was easily one of the best cakes that I've ever eaten. That is saying a lot, since I'm totally into cakes!
