Beautiful cake and excellent customer service! Found Holly here on Yelp and she made it on my daughter's top 10 list...which quickly went to 5 then finally top 3 LOL. My daughter chose Holly because of her personality, better tasting cake samples and how Holly was willing to go above and beyond to design the cake. First, I would like to thank her for her patience and professionalism. She dealt with my daughter who is high maintenance with no filter...so sorry Holly *nervous laughing* Holly offers cake tasting but there is a fee. She has standard and premium cake flavors, frosting flavors, and filling flavors to choose from. Highly recommend cake flavors: Chocolate, vanilla & marble Highly recommend filling flavors: Raspberry puree, strawberry puree & chocolate buttercream She does NOT provide flowers so please ask your florist for flowers. Holly provides a sketch for the design before baking and the cake turned out exactly like the sketch. My daughter loved the cake and got exactly what she wanted...she got her cake & ate it too haha Thank you again Holly! read more

Absolutely stunning cake! The picture does not, at all, do it justice. The cake was for a starry themed Sweet 16. The design of the cake couldn't have been more perfect for the theme. Since the cake had so much detail, i assumed it was going to be a little dry since she must have had to start early but I was wrong lol... the cake was moist and delicious!!! I chose the vanilla "funfetti" and vanilla buttercream. The crumb was so moist, tender, and flavorful. The ordering process was a breeze as was the pickup. The way it was packaged made it so easy to transport. I felt totally confident transporting a three tier cake to the venue. Holly is very nice and wonderful to work with. And, I forgot to mention, I ordered a week before the event due to our previous order, with another baker, being cancelled. read more

We had Holly make our wedding cake. It was 3 tiers with beautiful white piping and sugar pearls. She did a great job! We had a harder delivery process and she was able to plan for it and get the cake in good shape, on time. We loved the lemon curd filling with buttercream frosting, and the chocolate cake. read more

I had an amazing experience working with Holly. I had originally spoken to about 20 different vendors and I was getting extremely frustrated because all I wanted was a huge cake for my wedding and the first question everyone would ask me was how many people and that I didn't need to have a cake that big. However Holly took everything I said into consideration and remembered every single detail to the T from the first call to the delivery 10 months later! My favorite part about working with Holly is that she absolutely loves what she does and always does everything with a smile! Nothing phases her and everything is possible! I would HIGHLY recommend Cakes By Holly to anyone doing an event that requires high quality cake! She did a 9 tier cake for my wedding and it was STUNNING! read more

I wish this review was a lot different. The cake I purchased was NOT royal blue like the sketch. It actually had a few differences then the sketch we agreed on (a month prior) so it wasn't a last minute thing. The cake looked like it was made last minute though. This cake was important - for my baby shower. The theme was twinkle twinkle little star and I convinced my husband we should get a nice cake through Holly K because her work seemed good. Unfortunately that was not my experience whatsoever. It was expensive! $246! For something I literally cried about. This was the only bad part of my baby shower. :( read more

Where do I even begin with how amazing and how talented Holly is? If I can give her more than 5 stars, trust me I would. I stumbled upon her business through yelp from all her positive reviews so I contacted her via email to inquire about a special cake that I needed. She is great at thoroughly explaining everything when breaking down prices, size, and details in regards to the cake. I love how she is able to sketch your cake more than once for complete satisfaction. The cake was amazing and so breathtaking. I use to make cakes years ago but Im glad I decided for Holly to make it because like I mentioned earlier, she is far beyond talented. The guests and the birthday boy himself could not stop talking about the cake. Thank you Holly a million times!!! read more

Got ahold of Holly on a Tuesday morning asking if she could make a simple cake for a 35th wedding anniversary party that was the following Sunday. She was very easy to work with. Talked me through the website and let me know as long as we finalized it by Tuesday she'd have it ready for a Saturday pickup. She was right on schedule too! We picked out our flavors and sent her photos of our ideas and she was very open to our ideas and added her creativity making it better than we imagined it could be! She does offer delivery I believe but we live a couple miles or so away so it was easy for us to just pick it up. She had it ready to go when we arrived, and after we "ooh and ahh'd" over it she placed it in a wonderful cardboard travel box to keep it safe while we transported it. We presented the cake that Sunday and it was a huge hit at the party! Everyone loved it and as soon as we cut into it they were that much more excited! It was delicious!! I definitely recommend Holly for your custom cake needs!! read more

We loved the cake Holly made us for our wedding! Months before we had our cake tasting with her and were pleased with the way the cakes she brought tasted. The only disappointment was that there wasn't a huge selection of flavors and we also didn't get to choose the flavors for our tasting. Over the next few months Holly worked diligently with us over the design of the cake and we were very happy with the finished result! read more

Holly, THANK YOU! Holly made my cake for USC pharmacy school graduation and let me tell you, it was the most incredible cake I've ever ordered. My guests gave us so many compliments. Needless to say, everyone's Snapchat story had a photo of it. Holly was very easy to work with - I emailed her with a few potential ideas. She is very quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She turned my ideas into an image where we fine-tuned them and agreed on the cake. Her prices are great. For what you're getting, I was very happy with the price. Cake turned out exactly as she showed me in the pictures. We picked up which was easy and paid the bill online easily as well. Cake itself tasted amazing! We did pistachio and something chocolate I don't remember. But it tasted amazing. Again, everyone was impressed. Thank you for being an incredible vendor Holly. We look forward to working with you for future Long Beach area parties! read more

I just used Holly for my daughter's first birthday party. From the initial call, she was very friendly and easy to communicate with. The price was reasonable and I paid half initially with the second half to be paid before the party. I ordered a smash cake and cupcakes in the Alice in Wonderland theme and it all came out perfect. I was stupidly worried that the cupcakes would come in a large box and move around but was happy that they came in plastic boxes of 6 divided so they were perfectly safe. I ordered chocolate, vanilla, and marble and the cake was all delicious and moist. I will use Holly for any future cake needs and definitely recommend her! read more

I found Holly through a Google search. Checked out the reviews. Glanced at some posted pics and decided to reach out to her for my event. I did have some reservations because the entire transaction was done via e-mail. I made a down payment of 50% and had never even personally spoken to her, or tasted a sample. Well, no worries! She is very professional and easy to work with. She works with your ideas and perhaps because of her experience, her suggestions were great! I ordered three different cakes and each one was exactly what I wanted. The theme of the party was very masculine but classy. The event was a smash and the Cakes By Holly K, brought laughter, cheer, and celebration to the evening. Without a doubt, I would recommend and use Cakes By Holly K again and again! read more

Holly made us another AWESOME cake for our second son's FIRST birthday. All I gave her to go on was some lame photos of the Charlie the Tuna can advertisements and suggested "something like that" because we call our son "Sammy the Tuna." I couldn't have been more surprised and delighted when she delivered this! I love the waves and the colors! Super cute smash cake! (Even if he wasn't into smashing it) read more

Less than 2 weeks before my sister's birthday, i called several cake shops trying to order customize cake. But most of them didn't return my call and some said i was too late to order one. Then i saw Cake by Holly and right away fascinated by her work. When i called her, she immediately answered. Easy to talk to and i was able to explain what i wanted. From there on we communicated very well. Then the day came when i picked up the cake. I was very satisfied with the result, it was more than what i expected. It was beautiful. My sister loved the cake and it was the center of the party. Everybody loved the cake. I highly recommend her work. She's very professional and her work was amazing! Thank you Holly!!! read more

Holly K made my custom designed wedding cake last year. It was absolutely perfect. It matched the classic yet casual theme of my wedding exactly and it was delicious. She was very collaborative and professional. In fact, I liked it so much that she also designed my baby shower cake. Again, it was exactly what I had hoped for. I loved the adorable elephant theme and it tasted sooooo good. I can't wait to have her create my son's 1st birthday cake! read more

THE BEST! I will be getting all of our more detailed cakes from Holy. She did a fantastic job with my daughter's first birthday cake. Not only was it extremely pretty to look at, but it was tasty too. My husband loves coconut everything, so I asked if she could make the top layer of the cake coconut flavor and she came through with vanilla cake and coconut buttercream - super yummy. The "Icing on top," of everything is that she is a real pleasure to work with. read more

We were looking for a local vendor to make our wedding cake (which was 10/28/17) and came across Holly K on Yelp. The reviews were great and the cakes looked really good. We did look at a few well known bakeries but chose Holly K because we really liked the cake we tried at the tasting session and more importantly we reallly like Holly. She took time to get to know us and what we wanted. Holly is very creative and had the perfect innovative solution for our wedding topper which we had never seen or thought of before. Not only that but Holly hooked us up with a local wedding planner as our wedding began getting too big for us to handle. Holly can create exactly what you want and it was priced incredibly competitively . If you want the perfect cake with amazing flavour (we went for a vanilla sponge with a salted caramel filling), then look no further Holly K is the real deal and she will deliver exactly what you want on your special day. read more
