The best cake ever!! This was a strawberry cake for a gender reveal party! Everyone including the mom to be loved it!

Awsome work. The mother to be along with the guest that attended the gender reveal party loved her cake! You did a heck of a job and I definitely will begin sharing your info. to my friends and family!! Thank you so much.

Kristina made a cake for my son's first birthday, themed Mr. Onederful. I asked her to make something with a moustache and suspenders and she came back with this absolutely amazing creation. It was beautiful, exactly what I wanted, and absolutely delicious (I would recommend the red velvet!) She was even kind enough to accommodate me on short notice. I would definitely order from her again and recommend her to anyone looking to order a custom cake for any special occasion. Thank you Kristina!

Kristina did a fabulous job with the pool table themed cake.

Kristina did a fabulous job with the pool table themed cake and cupcakes. Impressive artistry. Yummy strawberries. Several guests asked me where I got the desserts. Yes, I would order again.

Kristina does an excellent job of providing delicious treats that are thoughtfully crafted. I've trusted her to do two cakes so far off of a generic theme (One being a beer brand and the other interests of the birthday boy) and they turned out fab. I had several people asking where I ordered the cake from. Her cakes are affordable and she's pleasant and easy to work with. I also recommend trying her liquor filled strawberries - they're awesome!

Kristina absolutley blew us away with this incredible fortnite themed bday cake! My nephew was completely stoked and excited. The details were so perfect and beautifully done. And the cake itself was soo delicious! Along with this perfect cake, Kristina was amazing to work with, very patient and able to take a few of my inspiration images and ideas and make a cohesive work of art. I really appreciate Kirstina taking on our cake (especially during a busy celebration season this summer). 10 out of 10 reccomend! read more

I ordered chocolate covered strawberries and Rice Krispy treats. They were both delicious! Kristina came through for me with less than a week's notice. She's a hero! I had the option to get them on a cardboard tray or in a box. I chose to have a smaller portion put in a box so that the guest of honor had a few left to take home after the party and the rest on a tray. I would recommend having these treats boxed because they would make a nice Hostess or Thank You gift. read more

This is one of the reviews you almost don't write because you don't want everyone figuring out how great a place you love is! I have ordered custom birthday cakes for my two daughters for the last five years from Blushing Berries. Kristina is a great baker and an unbelievable artist! I send her a picture of the cake my girls would like and she replicates them spot on every time! It is truly remarkable! And the cakes taste just as great as they look! Kristina is also a pleasure to deal with. She is very responsive and always has the cake ready as promised. I can't say enough great things about Blushing Berries! It's the perfect place to go for custom cakes!! read more

Blushing Berries cakes by Kristina are simply amazing. The cake I ordered literally looked like the picture I sent. It was a stunning centerpiece for our little girls first birthday. Not only did is look amazing but tasted delicious as well. Everyone kept complimenting how wonderful the cake was. Kristina also was great to work with.

Kristina made a wonderful cake. You know how sometimes you get a cake and it's beautiful on the outside and so-so on the inside? That's what I was worried about when I ordered the cake. It was for my daughter's 5th birthday party and she wanted the cake to be strawberry. We also got two dozen cake pops in chocolate and vanilla. All I had to do is send Kristina over a picture of what I wanted and she replicated it in a snap. The cake (and the pops) were absolutely gorgeous. Everyone was talking about it. When we cut into it.....yum!!! The cake was big. We only got a 1-tier cake, but it was BIG. I was shocked to see how much of that cake disappeared. I will definitely use her again. Thank you! read more

So Sunday morning, I pulled up to Ben'YaYs with the whole crew ready to see what the hype was about. When we walked in, there were already a few people inside, but it wasn't overwhelmingly busy. The young lady working the register was absolutely wonderful. She was patient, attentive, and even let my son take over the ordering process when he started telling her exactly what our family wanted. One thing I really appreciated was her recommendation when I started ordering multiple individual orders of beignets. She suggested that we get a box instead, which was actually the better deal and saved me some money. Listen, I love when somebody helps me spend less money without me having to ask! We went with a box of the original beignets plus two orders of the cinnamon sugar beignets. Since we got the box, we also got three dipping sauces. And if you have kids under 10, you already know that anything they can dip is automatically more exciting. Our order came out pretty quickly, and let me just say... THESE BEIGNETS WERE GOOD. Like, everybody was already talking about coming back before we had even finished eating. Four of the five people with me had never had a beignet before, so they had nothing to compare them to. But I've had beignets in New Orleans AND locally, and I can confidently say these held their own. Light, delicious, covered in that glorious powdered sugar, and the cinnamon sugar ones were a fun addition. The front area is on the smaller side, but thankfully there's a back seating area where you can actually sit down and enjoy your food. That made a big difference with my family. And let's talk parking because this is important! Street parking is pretty sparse, especially on a Sunday during church hours. Thankfully, there's paid parking behind the restaurant. I paid about $3, which was well worth not driving around the block 17 times looking for a spot. Would I come back? Absolutely. The kids are already asking when we're going again, and honestly, I'm not mad about it.

Love, love, LOVE this place!…read more We ordered a dozen Ben yay's and all the sauces: vanilla cream, chocolate, raspberry, and strawberry.

Blushing Berry Cakes absolutely exceeded every expectation with the stunning cake they created for Alexis' celebration! From the moment it was unveiled, it was the talk of the party. Everyone paused to admire it--and nearly everyone took a picture. It was that beautiful. I'll admit, I gave Kristina very vague instructions, but she ran with it and used her creativity, attention to detail, and serious talent to deliver a masterpiece. The design was elegant, sharp, and personalized in a way that made it feel so special. You could tell just how much pride she takes in her work. Kristina was incredibly professional and patient throughout the process, and it was clear that she cared deeply about both the process and the final product. From start to finish, everything about working with her was seamless and enjoyable. The best part? The price was more than reasonable for such high-quality work. For all future celebrations, big or small, I know exactly where I'm going--Blushing Berry Cakes. Thank you, Kristina, for making such a memorable centerpiece for such a special occasion! read more

However I think the prices are a bit high. $5.50 a piece? Probably won't return.
