    Tiffanie is amazing! She's friendly and easy to work with. She made the perfect cake for a…read morebirthday. All while planning via text with me being out of state! I gave her very vague ideas as I'm not an artsy type and she ran with it and made it better then I imagined! She will be my go to if I need to send more treats in the Windsor area ever again!! Highly recommend!

    First, I will start with how easy Tiffanie was to work with. She and I started communicating in…read moreJanuary for cakes that were ordered for May pick up. I live in Arizona, so this was all by text communication. My son and bride-to-be had put a deposit on their wedding cake through another bakery, but I wanted a more detailed cake as the Groom's cake. My son has a dream pair of shoes that he could not afford for his wedding, so Tiffanie made a pair for him, in cake form. The cake was chocolate espresso with beautifully detailed fondant, moist, and flavorful. This cake made it from her house to our rental in Estes Park, to the rehearsal dinner, and then to the wedding venue the next day without a single crack! We ate the shoe box at the rehearsal and one of the shoes at the wedding. My son didn't want to cut them because they were too beautiful. So many people commented about how detailed and realistic they were. I'm so happy I reached out to Tiffanie. She also made a graduation cake for my daughter, which was not as detailed as we had discussed, but I think she became overwhelmed with all the other orders she had for graduation season that she didn't have time to create more. When I let her know my disappointment, she was quick to apologize and make things right Overall, it was an amazing experience working with Tiffanie. I would highly recommend her, especially if you need anything detailed.

    Creative Cakes I…read morefound Tasty Cakes on yelp while searching for a bakery to make my sons birthday cake. I was impressed with the work that was presented online and wanted to patronize her business. The communication between us was fairly good with the exception of a blip when there was a family emergency. Kellie was pretty nice throughout the entire process but I did feel a little like I was bothering her with questions. I figured since I paid her $115 for a 8 inch round cake, that it was okay to make sure it was being made the way I envisioned. At some point, I went to the baking section at Michael's and looked at an 8 inch pan and thought it was super tiny. I inquired about how much it would be to make it 12 inches. I've read that she charges by the slice but I was hoping that she could cut me a deal but it didn't happen. She just said that it added 'x' amount of slices and will be an additional $55. No worries, it's a business and I completely understand. My total tab on this cake was $170. We threw a few ideas around but I gave her complete freedom to do as she wished. I'm usually hands on with everything but thought it would be nice to just let an expert do their jig. When my babies big day came, the cake was nice. It was detailed and a lot of work was definitely put into it. It was just not my personal cup of tea. Nonetheless, it was a good center piece. I ordered a bubblegum cake and I wish I didn't. When I first discusses flavors I asked about bubblegum and Kellie said that kids like it. I wanted something different so I thought it was a good choice. I only cut 20% of the cake and not one person ate a complete slice. I threw a majority of the thing away the next day. I was a little disappointed. One kid asked me what flavor it was & I said, "bubblegum." In which he replied, "Oh yeah, it tastes like bubblegum...with puke in it." I'm not blaming Kellie for my flavor choice but I would have appreciated some honesty. I suggest sticking to a normal flavor. Besides the taste, the cake wasn't very moist. I believe she started to bake on Thursday for my Saturday night party since she emailed me on a Wednesday stating that she was going to get started the next day. I know the giant (Jack the Giant Slayer theme) on top of the cake was made later because the color was more vibrant and the texture was a lot better than the main cake. This is a "cottage food" business and I really wanted to love it with all my heart. I just feel that it was a little pricey for the overall experience I had. Given the type of home based business it is, I wish she could have worked out a deal with me for a bigger sized cake. I guess I just have a chip on my shoulder because I could have ordered an amazing half sheet of scrumptious Haupia or Hawaiian Paradise cake from the notorious Kings Hawaiian bakery for under $50 if I were still in California. Tasty Cakes Cakery is a great local choice if you have the money to drop on a custom cake. Kellie does great work. If I were to do it differently, I would choose a better flavor, draw out exactly how I wanted the cake to look & ask if she could bake the cake the day before. I would have loved to meet her in person but we did everything through email, postal service to send payment, and text. She also asked if it were possible to change my drop off time because her husband was playing a game someplace and wanted to watch it, which was okay with me. I was just in school at that time, so my husband was there to receive the cake without me. Anyway, sorry for the novel. I just wanted to share my experience with my yelp community. Check her out and decide for yourself :) Solid 2.5 Stars rounded up to 3 for an A-OK experience.

    Amazing cakes made by one woman! She is self taught and you would have thought she went to years…read moreand years of school. She made my graduation cake for massage school, my son's birthday cake this year, and I have eaten her delicious cupcakes. EVERYTHING was fantastic. She puts a lot of time and detail in to her pieces of art. I can tell she really enjoys what she does. Her prices are reasonable, especially for what you get. I will never order a cake from anyone else again.
