Our meal was quick to our table and served hot and fresh. Today's soup was tomato vegetable which was interesting, a new spin that I hadn't tried before.

We were all thanked for coming in too which I think goes a long way.

When I was planning my wedding, Paula's was the first place I thought of for my wedding cake…read more Everyone there is friendly and helpful and the prices seem reasonable. I chose the 'Wedgwood' cake since I have always loved Wedgwood dishes, and it turned out to be a pretty cake that looked great with my cake topper. I am not usually a fan of store-bought cake in general and especially white cake, but I actually kind of liked the taste of Paula's white cake, and I also liked the lemon although the flavor was pretty subtle. I found the cake also lasted well, and was still fairly moist a few days later. One thing Paula suggested was getting the main cake and an extra slab cake as well to accommodate all our guests, although as it turns out we only used little more than one layer of the main cake so it would have been enough, and we were eating leftover cake for days and pawning it off to relatives - I believe she meant well with the advice, but I would suggest brides look at whether they are having a lot of other food as well before deciding how much cake to get. I also purchased some squares for later in the evening because making and cutting them myself that day would be too much hassle. Unfortunately I had to request they not include my favorite peanut butter squares, and I was disappointed to find out the replacement square was rice crispy squares. To me, that is a child's food and not classy wedding food, as well as being something simple that I could have made and pre-cut myself. Besides that disappointment, the other squares were tasty and wedding-appropriate. Overall I would suggest being careful about the quantity of cake you get and I would suggest checking in advance what peanut-free squares they will include, but otherwise I would recommend Paula's Pantry for your wedding cake and desserts based on taste, appearance, and price.

My Mom was quite particular in wanting a lemon cake, not too heavy but just perfectly sweet. It was as ordered. In addition to the cake were these wonderful tarts that allowed for the guests to choose. =The cake when on the plate looked like you would never be able to get through a piece because it was so rich but that was not the case. I also loved the lemon taste, as lemon can so many times be too tart or too bland - it was just right! Highly recommended!

However, unfortunately they tasted quite dry and seemed a few days old, which was disappointing especially for a special occasion. I had mentioned that I wasn't picky about the exact design or colors, only that I wanted them to look "pretty" for my Nonna's 98th birthday. In my mind I was thinking softer mixed tones like pinks, purples, and greens. The cupcakes all came in different shades of blue, which, while very pretty, wasn't what I envisioned. That said, I do acknowledge that I didn't specify exact colours, so that part is on me. Overall, visually lovely, but the freshness and flavour didn't match the expectations for the occasion and the price point.
