The cakes are literally the best cake I have ever tasted(moist and full of flavor) and each time they have nailed the requested designs.

They make sure to have a thorough consultation, to go over all the details of what you want. I enjoy that during the consultations, they provide a lot of recommendations but ultimately let you have full creative freedom. Their quality of work is very consistent, their cakes not only look great but also taste amazing. This is a very reliable place, we appreciate them being part of our special occasions and providing us with the best quality service! We are also obsessed with their fondant and American buttercream!

As someone…read morethat loves cakes, I was so looking forward to trying Sage on my wedding day and I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of their cakes. My husband generally doesn't like cake as much, but even he loved the ones they made for us. The blackberry sage was a huge hit, and the decoration on the cake could not have been more stunning. It was exactly what we asked for and more. They worked with us too to add a topper my mom made for us and it looked perfect on top of the beautiful cake. We can't wait to get another cake from them on our anniversary!

They had amazing customer service and they were training a (very sweet) new guy who made a mistake in the order, I got a call from them because they wanted to make sure that my order was all correct - it wasn't, but they did everything they could to fix it and gave me free cupcakes in the flavor that was mistakenly removed from my order and they all tasted amazing. We even got the gluten free cupcakes and they tasted great. The Opera Torte flavor I might have dreams about for the rest of my life!

Had a very poor experience working with this company. We spent two weeks working out the details of…read morecustom wedding cake with a pre-arranged date set in the very first email. During the process to meet and get our samples, the business owner wrote informing us our date was no longer available and they were booked up now. Apparently they wanted us to pay a retainer to lock in the date, but we were just supposed to guess that was required since it was never mentioned in any communication nor was an invoice provided to us to do so or a means of payment discussed. We would have had no problem at all paying even in full had the business mentioned it even once that it was required. Really a disappointing experience all around working with the provider.

Voula was very responsive and and clear about the details and exactly what everything cost without adding on unnecessary prices. She delivered the cake on time too. The cake was wonderful, full of detail and my baby kept saying "lion king" simba, mofasa, zazu and rafiki. It was full of a lot of great detail and the red velvet cake tasted amazing. The only drawback is that to get that amount of detail, need to pack a significant layer of frosting. I'm glad I used blue lace cakes. They delivered exactly what I was looking for detail and taste. Will definitely use voula again.

If you're looking for a custom cake that will look gorgeous and taste amazing, LOOK NO FURTHER!!!…read more I was planning a 30th Bday party and it was Hawaiian themed and I wanted a custom cake baked with love. Robin was absolutely wonderful and easy to work with. I submitted my request through her site and got a response shortly after. We consulted through email and through phone to ensure my order was what I wanted. She even asked me if it would be indoor or outdoor, which was so thoughtful because she then recommended that it be covered in fondant so that it didn't melt or fall in the heat. She was so easy to work with and super friendly. The cake turned out absolutely amazing. Everyone at the party was so impressed with the design and how the cake tasted! It was DELICIOUS! I've had her coconut cake and almond cake from other events that my friends have planned, as well. And they were very delicious. I cannot explain how good they are but you just have to trust me on this. Those flavors I would have never chosen but they left me wanting more. For this event, I went with chocolate cake and chocolate butter cream and it was perfectly moist, and perfectly sweet, but not too sweet and not too chocolately. Chocolate actually is not my favorite cake flavor but this was literally the perfect chocolate cake. Moving forward, I definitely plan to continue requesting cakes from her. They will NOT disappoint. HIGHLYYYYY RECOMMEND!!!!

They have created custom cakes for every occasion and so many people have commented on not only how beautiful the cakes were but how tasty they are. My daughter is allergic to eggs so Jenya, the owner was able to make egg free cakes and still make the cakes taste great! I love her attention to detail. They are a bit distance for us to drive and over the years the price may have increased but I think it's worth it.

They incorporated our painted pottery turtles into the design. The chiffon lemon with raspberry filling and chiffon with passion fruit filling cakes were delicious!! They were extremely easy to work with (including making several tasting boxes available at different times due to COVID restrictions.) Honey Bee Pastries was also reasonably priced for the Washington, D.C. area. We would highly recommend using them for all your catering bakery needs.
