This place makes the most beautiful cakes. I would give 10 stars for how the cake turned out - so so beautiful. But we didn't love how the cake or cupcakes tasted (good but we had better). Good price (157$ for the cake and 12 cupcakes) for such a piece of art! read more

The baker describes herself on Instagram as an "extremely moody baker." In hindsight, that should have been a warning sign. We had a very disappointing experience with her two weeks ago. Communication is handled exclusively through email, which became a significant issue when time sensitive matters arose. She maintains very limited hours and is not open to the public, making it difficult to resolve concerns quickly. Unfortunately, the cake itself was also disappointing. During the bride and groom's cake cutting, the top tier slid off and landed in a candle. Beyond the presentation issue, we did not find the cake enjoyable to eat. I also feel that the reviews displayed on her social media pages do not provide a complete picture. Numerous one star reviews can be found on her Instagram page under a highlight labeled "1 Star," where negative reviews are showcased. Rather than addressing customer concerns professionally, she publicly mocks and criticizes customers who leave unfavorable feedback. What happened after I posted my review was the most troubling part of the experience. Instead of responding professionally, she used foul language, called me stupidand stated, "I hope your daughter's wedding was ruined." Based on both the product and the conduct that followed, I would strongly encourage anyone considering hiring this baker to do their research and think carefully before booking. read more

Dari is the most talented, gifted, and artistic "Kake" baker there is. Her cakes are simply outstanding. She did our wedding cake in three different flavors, all unique and flavorful. It was such a hit at our wedding. If you read her website you'll understand she is a one person operations to ensure quality and personal touch. The negative reviews are written by people who simply didn't understand that you would be working with a true genious in the kitchen. read more

Darci made a lavender earl grey with white chocolate ganache for our wedding and seriously, the cake is just perfection! You can taste all the layers of flavors without one being too overpowering.She definitely kept the delicate flavors so well balanced. We made sure to get the leftover cake the day after the wedding and sure enough, it still tasted really good and was still moist!I wish I can have her cake back in California!Thank you again Darci!Seriously the best cake I have ever tasted! read more

Cakes look nice however the customer service is really bad. The way she talked to my fiancé over the phone is very rude and unprofessional. I'm lost of words. If you are having a bad day and you're running a business, I dont think you have to put it on your customers. Thats it. If I can give this shop a score of 0 I will. read more

If you want to find the world's tastiest wedding cakes, look no further!! Kake by Darci is by far the best!! All of our guest were raving on about how good our vanilla cake was with the vanilla bean and bourbon buttercream frosting!

It was a complete hit!! Absolutely recommend Kake by Darci for everyone!! read more

I am at a loss for words at how unprofessional this business is. After deciding we wanted to use Darci for our wedding desserts, we made a special trip out to Canmore for a cake tasting with her. We loved it. We loved the options she provided and asked tons of questions about options. We made our decisions and I was extremely excited. I have been showing all our friends and family pictures of the beautiful desserts we ordered. It was a fun experience. Fast forward to right now. I'm literally in tears after she fired us and returned our deposit. The night of the tasting we bought a sample pack and took it home with us. My fiance thought the cupcakes were a bit crumbly and stuck to the paper, so last night he emailed her about it. He simply asked if that was common and if there was anything that could be done to keep them more intact on our wedding. I assume it was because they were put in and out of the fridge after we brought them home and took them to an event the next night. Darci's reply was that she was cancelling our order and refunding our deposit. My fiance phoned her to discuss and ask her to reconsider, but she said she had already refunded our money and she talked about how were asking too much of our colour choices. I don't understand, as we ordered from a photo and were thrilled with all choices and discussions. Unreliable and unprofessional. Thank you Darci for adding stress and disappointment to what should be a fun process. read more

Darci made me a cake for my 35th birthday and it was absolute perfection. Three layers of the most delicate, soft and MOIST chocolate cake, with raspberry buttercream between each layer. The best part? ROSE GOLD on the outside. It was a real show stopper at my birthday dinner. Oh, and just enough left-overs for me to have some cake for breakfast the next day. read more

while her macaroons might be tasty, the experience is soured by Darci's demeanor. moody is an understatement. in the future, I'll satisfy my sweet cravings elsewhere read more

I fell in love with the cakes here through Instagram (where else!), they make the most whimsical and fun creations ever so when we were hosting a lumberjack themed bachelorette in the mountain I, of course, had to reach out and see about a creation for us. We ended up getting lumberjack cupcakes and they were absolutely adorable! All the girls were thrilled with the cupcakes and thought they were the cutest things ever, just as importantly, they were absolutely delicious! read more

Kake by Darci - Lumberjack Cupcakes for a Bachelorette! - Custom Cakes Near Me - Canmore, Alberta

Very unprofessional and rude. The cake designs look great but the owner is very rude when answering phone calls and is very mean to paying customers! This business owner needs to learn how to respect customers and value each business she gets. I would not recommend to get your cakes from this owner!!! read more

I used this vendor for our wedding cake. It was perhaps because they are understaffed or with just one person but regardless of the reasons I feel that there could be improvements on their services. First of all they are not the most responsive. For the most part that wasn't a problem since I started my planning very early. Additionally, they were not very organized. I say this because, they called me two weeks before the wedding to let me know that the flavors of the cake had not been chosen. Although I was at fault as well, the person on the phone was quite rude and requested that I responded within the hour and she said that she did not have time to explain how the flavors worked. The last part that I was very disappointed about is that we had requested some floral decoration on the cake. It was a destination wedding so we had limited amount of time and we went out of our way to purchase flowers and drop them off (as we had discussed), however, when we got the cake, there was no flower, so really unsure what happened to that and we simply got a plain white two tier cake. As for the flavor, personally, I felt that it was very dry. No one commented on it and people didn't finish their piece and we had a lot left. read more

Darci made a cake for my sisters Celebration of Life and besides the event itself it was the most talked about item. I think it's the only time I have ever taken a picture of a cake but the outside beauty had nothing on what was maybe the best cake I have ever eaten - and I've eaten a lot of cake. The only leftovers people took home were pieces of their cake. There not enough adjectives to describe just hoe good it was. Do yourself a favour and find out for yourself read more
