Jennifer is absolutely incredible. Armed with nothing but the hand-drawn vision of an 8-year-old and a mission to bring it to life for his birthday, she went completely above and beyond--and absolutely nailed it. The cake was not only stunning, it was SO delicious. Jennifer exceeded every standard of service and truly outdid herself. She was kind, compassionate, and attentive throughout the entire process, and what meant the most to me was her genuine recognition of just how important this was to both me and my little boy. You can immediately tell that she truly cares about her craft and her customers. She didn't just gain a customer for life--I genuinely feel like I made a friend. I am beyond grateful for the time, thoughtfulness, and care she poured into both the cake and our correspondence. As long as she is in business, I will never go anywhere else for these needs. Thank you will never feel like enough for the gratitude I have in my heart. read more

I ordered a cake and 2 dozen cupcakes for my twins' 3rd birthday from Jennifer and couldn't have had a better experience working with her. Both the cake and cupcakes turned out better than I could have imagined and tasted delicious. She is so easy to communicate with and quickly responds to emails. Her prices were very reasonable. I will definitely be ordering from her for all my future cake/cupcake needs! read more

Jennifer is very professional and communicates well. I ordered a dozen cupcakes, and to my surprise, I was able to order 4 different flavors. She even customized it to be less sweet than a normal cupcake. Throughout my drive from Zion up to her place, we were in good communication of timing. She is also a sweet and friendly person. read more

We ordered our wedding cake from Salt Cake City last October and it was absolutely incredible. Jennifer was a pleasure to communicate with and the pickup and cake stand drop-off went very smoothly. If we didn't live out of state, we'd be back for every special occasion! Bonus - we pulled the leftover cake from the freezer after 9 months and it was still moist and flavorful. read more

I got married recently and I needed a cake. Not just any cake, though, one of Counselor Troi's torso. (If you don't understand why, please watch the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode called "Phantasms." Season seven, episode six.) I thought it would be easy to find someone to make said cake. After all, it's just a sheet cake, right? Tiered cakes are probably much more complicated. For whatever reason, I had a really difficult time finding someone to make this cake for my husband and me. I e-mailed and called several bakers, and they either blew me off or acted like I was a freak of nature for even considering such a cake. I was getting discouraged. Then I received a reply to my cake related query from Jennifer, who was a few days late in responding because she had just returned from her honeymoon. Not only *could* she make the cake, but she was very excited to do so, and gave me a very fair estimate. The final product was everything we'd hoped for and more, and Jennifer was just the best to work with. She replies to e-mails very quickly and answered all of our questions. Best of all, the cake was delicious and a huge hit at our wedding! So all I can say is that whatever your cake needs are (traditional or non-traditional), Jennifer will make it happen. read more

Salt Cake City - It's a cellular peptide cake...with mint frosting. Delicious. - Bakeries Near Me - South Jordan, Utah

Jennifer at Salt Cake City was one of the kindest, most professional, and responsive people I worked with while planning my wedding and I am SO glad I chose to have her do my wedding cake. The cake turned out exactly how I pictured it (rustic/boho/wild flower vibe) and everyone was raving about how delicious it was! We decided to do a 3 (6-9-12) tier all different flavors (chocolate on top, red velvet in the middle, and lemon poppy seed on the bottom) for ~130 guests. All 3 were absolutely amazing but oh man, the lemon poppy seed tasted just like home and I cannot recommend it enough! I've been eating it for breakfast every day since the wedding! You will not regret choosing Salt Cake City! read more

We chose salt cake city to create not one, but two cakes for our wedding. They were not just beautiful but they were delicious. Jennifer did an absolutely amazing job. My wife and I were very happy with everything we received. read more

You guys, this is going be long, but bare with me. This will be a very detailed comprehensive review. I found Jennifer at Salt Cake City, by just searching online. I wanted a cute cake for my daughter's first birthday and all of the quotes I was given for the cake I wanted were ranging from $150-$210. Jennifer was about $145 ($153 with tax). Her prices were very competitive. Also, from looking at her cake albums online, I could tell that this wasn't just a "mom" hobby. Everything was very professional and clean. Well, I e-mailed her and at the time I was trying to figure out if I wanted to go with her or another baker I was in contact with. My cake idea was very specific and my price range was also. The other baker didn't seem as willing to negotiate or work with me, but Jennifer was AMAZING. She took into consideration my price range and the overall look I was going for and gave me several different options so that she could get me what I wanted at a price I was comfortable at. Once we set a date, I e-mailed her a few different times and changed the size of my cake. Then about 3 days before the party, my daughter got chicken pox, I e-mailed Jennifer and asked her if she could move the cake to next weekend, and she was totally fine with that. Then I changed the cake size again. By this point in time, if I were her, I would've been completely frustrated and irritated. If she was, she didn't show it in the slightest. She was responsive, kind, and very willing to work with me. I'm very grateful for that. The day came to pick up the cake, I honestly thought I was going to be heading to a store location because of the professionalism I had seen in her cake making and also her willingness to work with me. Also, there was a list of 30+ flavors on her website. Naturally, I thought she must have a store with a very large kitchen. I thought she had a team of people working for her or something. When I got the pick up information I noticed that it was a residential neighborhood and the directions were to a house. I went to pick up my cake and Jennifer was SO SWEET and helpful. I noticed upon entering her house that she was one busy woman. She had cakes everywhere! They were lining the living room and all available counter space. I am a neat freak and even with all these cakes, her kitchen was spotless! You can tell that she was very serious and professional about her business. She helped me load my cake out to the car and everything went smoothly. Now to the cake........ Oh. My. Gosh. I'm not one for fondant, but wow. I ordered a Alice in Wonderland inspired cake with "Riah in One-derland" writing on it. I wanted the cake to have a more class-tea party look unlike the traditional wonky decor you usually get with Alice in Wonderland. It was spot on. I literally wouldn't have changed one thing. Actually, when I first picked it up and she said, "Everything is edible", I thought in my head, "Ya, except those flowers you stuck in there." They honestly looked exactly like fake flowers you'd get from Micheal's. Nope! They were fondant. I couldn't get over how real they looked. Several people at the party actually commented on the flowers specifically and how real they looked. From looking at her designs on her website, I wasn't too worried about the look of the cake, I was however concerned about the taste. I've eaten a few beautiful looking fondant cakes, but the beauty stopped once that puppy was sliced. Jennifer's cake was nothing like those. Besides being beautiful on the outside, the taste was equally amazing. The thing I liked most was that there was a layer of buttercream under all of the fondant, so even if you didn't care for the taste or texture of the fondant, you could simply peel it back and have a regular cake. As for the flavors, as mentioned before, Jennifer has MANY flavors to choose from. Being a first time buyer, I went a little safe with my flavors as I wan't sure how her cakes would be. For my bottom tier I ordered the "Snow White" cake from her menu. It was a classic white cake with white buttercream. It was delicious, but again, safe. For my second layer I went a bit more adventurous and did the "Orange Cream" to get some bright spring flavors in there. You guys. YOU GUYS! It tasted just like an orange cream sickle. Since it was the second tier, and smaller than the bottom, everyone was fighting over it. IT WAS SO GOOD! Both cakes were moist. The orange flavor was subtle and not too overpowering. It also tasted natural and not artificial. When I order again I will definitely try some of her other flavors At first my family thought I was being a little crazy ordering a cake that was over $100. We are usually the Costco/Sam's Club sheet cake crew, but after eating Jennifer's cake, my mom made several comments about how this might have to become a tradition for bigger life events. I would recommend Jennifer to any body. If I ever order a special cake again, I won't be going anywhere but to her. read more

I'd give Jennifer 100 stars if I could! She was very flexible with times for the cake tasting, and was very good at explaining the number of servings for different cake sizes. She understood what we wanted, even if we weren't too sure ourselves! She made sure that the cake arrived to the venue at the right time to keep it fresh and ready for all to see. Also, she is truly an artist--I was able to leave her some faux flowers (day-of) that I wanted to have adorn the cake, and she NAILED IT. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful cake!!! If I have any other kind of event that requires a fancy cake, you better believe I'll be going to Salt Cake City. Not only are Jennifer's cakes beautiful, but the flavors are phenomenal! We got 4 different flavors for our separate layers: almond joy, fuzzy strawberry, german chocolate, and apple spice. The cakes were moist and delicious and the fillings were to die for. The buttercream frosting was divine! And her pricing is straightforward and very reasonable! read more

The wedding cake looked even better than we hoped, all the layers were amazing delicious. The consultation process was simple and easy, and all our guests loved it. We got so many compliments on how it was the best wedding cake they'd had. read more

Jennifer at Salt Cake City was amazing. We had to plan our wedding from out of state and she helped us make it easy. We wanted a simple, elegant cake to go with a vintage-style wedding, with real flowers on it to match my bouquet. Not only did it exceed our expectations, but it tasted AMAZING. We got a "Snow White" flavored cake with Coconut Buttercream frosting/filling. The flavors were delicious and the coconut was subtle - very gourmet, nice and moist. She delivered and adorned the cake with the flowers left by the florist all with great timing and good competitive pricing. She has wonderful customer service skills. It was a great experience! I would highly recommend Salt Cake City! read more

SO GOOD! Jennifer is amazing. Super easy to communicate with (I don't actually think we spoke on the phone at all... we met once then the rest of our correspondences were through email), reasonably priced, makes DELICIOUS and beautiful cakes! We ordered enough cupcakes for 85 people, 60 came, and (in addition to the 24 vegan cupcakes we purchased through a different vendor) ALL the cupcakes were gone in a matter of minutes. Everyone came up to us and complemented how delicious they were! We have our stand alone cake topper in the freezer awaiting our first anniversary and every day I see it in the freezer, I am so tempted to dive in for just one more bite!! read more

As the best friend of the bride, I have to say, besides the bride, the cake was the most amazing part of the wedding. Ü All the guests raved about the cake. It was delicious!! There were 4 different flavors that were all unique and amazing. Guests were literally rounding up groups so that each person could get a different flavor and they could share and sample all 3. My best friend, the bride, asked me to please write a review because she wants everyone to know what a great company this is. Brides to be...this IS the place you want to do your wedding cake. read more

I had been calling everyone looking for two cakes. One needed in a few days and one needed by father's day. Jennifer was beyond fantastic. She was extremely polite.

What a pleasure to work with. read more

I found Salt Cake City a treat to work with. I was out of the state and out of the country for several months preceding my wedding, and Jennifer was very responsive to emails and made time for me when I was available in state. She provided an amazing level of service, even ordering some special decorations for the cake to match those I was using in other parts of the decoration. She let me freely mix and match from the huge variety of flavors she offers and the cake was exactly what I wanted. I would recommend her without reservations. read more

I spent forever looking for someone to make my wedding cake. I came across Jennifer and Salt Cake City and loved all of her pictures. I contacted her and sent her a picture of what I wanted with a few other alterations. Jennifer was amazing to work with and so flexible. She even recommended someone that could make ninja turtle cake pops for our son. The price was less than everyone else and she delivered those with our gorgeous cake. My husband and I won't go with anyone else from now on for any occasion requiring a cake! Jennifer and Salt Cake City beat out everyone else's prices, the cake was everything we wanted and incredibly delicious! Everyone at the wedding raved about it! read more

We recently planned a wedding in Salt Lake City from overseas. We only communicated with Jennifer via email and pictures. The process was too easy and and I was a little nervous as to what we would actually get, but the cake was EXACTLY what we wanted. The colours and the design matched the pictures we sent Jennifer. Three days before the wedding, I changed the order and added an additional tier. Jennifer was more than willing to accommodate this request. As an added bonus, the cake was delicious. We chose strawberry lemonade and it was a huge hit. I would HIGLY recommend Salt Cake City. read more
