I am so glad I found Renee through Yelp. My eldest brother was getting married via Zoom but none of…read moreus live in Washington and since we couldn't see him in person we really wanted to do something special. We decided we wanted to get them a small wedding cake enough for two people so they could have a festive zoom wedding. Our plans were limited since we needed to find someone who made beautiful cakes and could also deliver since we don't have any friends or family to do it. I tried getting in touch with a few other places but none of them were as friendly and willing to help make it happen. Renee was amazing! She made time to chat about my idea and was willing to hand deliver the cake the day of the wedding as a surprise. She listened to what I wanted visually and made it look exactly how I envisioned. She was also texting me photos of the finished product and making communication really easy. The cake was beautiful, she delivered it and my brother and his fiancé were over the moon! They thought the cake was beautiful **and they said it was delicious** and it totally made their wedding feel special. I really truly appreciate Renee for delivering the cake during a snow storm and making our surprise happen. Such an awesome experience!

I am such a booger for not leaving a review for Renee in a timely fashion. But better late than…read morenever to spread the good word about great sweets. Our wedding coordinator recommended Renee, and she did not disappoint! Renee offers an array of cake flavors, fillings, and decoration options. The cakes themselves are so lovely. Moist and flavorful, perfect for a celebration. Renee has always been responsive. Her communication is clear. Her prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and service. I strongly recommend Renee's Custom Cakes if you live or are having an event within driving distance of Covington.

**Must Love Frosting: A Cupcake Paradise--But Don't Worry, Liking Frosting is Totally Acceptable**…read more Let's start with the obvious: **Must Love Frosting is a masterpiece of dessert engineering**, a shop so devoted to the art of cupcake perfection that every visit **feels like stepping into a sugar-coated dream world**. The cupcakes? **Flawless.** The cake itself is **moist, rich, and crafted with the precision of a world-class pastry sorcerer**, while the frosting is **whipped into an ethereal cloud of sweetness that could probably float a few inches off the plate if physics allowed it**. BUT--**and this is important**--let's address the name. "Must Love Frosting" sounds **a little intense, doesn't it?** Like you have to **legally swear allegiance to frosting before entering**, as if a secret frosting council will question your dedication at the door. **But let me reassure you:** you don't have to *love* frosting. You just have to **like it a reasonable amount**. I tested this. I walked in with **a measured appreciation for frosting**--not an overwhelming devotion, but a solid respect for its role in society. **No alarms went off. No one escorted me out.** The staff happily handed me a cupcake, and nobody demanded I write a sonnet about buttercream before I could eat it. The truth is, **these cupcakes are so good, they'd win you over even if your frosting enthusiasm was at a lukewarm "it's fine, I guess" level**. The balance is perfect--**not too much frosting, never overwhelming, always exactly the right amount** to complement the cake in a way that **transcends human expectation**. So if you're worried that maybe you're not *passionate* enough about frosting--don't be. **They'll take you as you are.** Come for the cupcakes, stay for the joy, and **leave knowing that frosting acceptance--not full devotion--is completely acceptable here**. Five stars. And **an honorary nod to those who only like frosting, but still deserve great cupcakes**.

This business is not a welcoming business in my experience.

**this is a BLACK OWNED & operated business**…read more the owner (Shawna) bakes her cakes and desserts with so much love, sweetness, consistency & uniqueness! you will never get a cake that taste like ATOL cakes. she does sheet cakes, round cakes, cupcakes, 1/2 sheet cakes anything! for my graduation party this year, i ordered a sheet cake from ATOL cakes in the flavor of banana pudding. now i know it might sound a little off putting to have a cake in the form of another dessert but this was hands down the best cake i have EVER had. she uses a light icing that's sweet but not overpowering, then the cake batter has small hints of banana flavor & the filling is a little thicker than the icing & it really gets that banana pudding vibe going. i promise these cakes will not disappoint. she takes orders by phone, or email & she is very timely with getting back to you. *i'm really hoping this review expands her business & gets more folks to buy black owned & operated* she deserves to have all the clientele, thank you Shawna!!!

I live in Fife/Edgewood and I can…read moretell you that I had zero idea this place was here, and I've been in the area for almost 4 years. I was in need of some custom cookies for a meeting, and fast. I reached out to Bon Appetina's and was replied to swiftly and to my surprise, they agreed to place a rush order for me for a small additional charge. I was so grateful I didn't have to scramble to find somewhere else! Pickup and payment was super easy. It was a little hard to find the spot since it's in a warehouse complex sort of setup, but once I found it we were golden. They have the door locked until you ring for pickup but they answered quickly and my box was labeled and ready to go. I was so happy with how they turned out! Everything was exactly as communicated and they looked so cute - and delicious! The person receiving them was so excited about them which was my entire goal, so that alone was a 5 star experience. Definitely super happy with this order and I'll be reaching out to them in the future for other custom orders.

I'm so obsessed with their work. It's delicious and my friends always rave about it about how…read morebeautiful and tasty their cakes are! I've ordered for First communions, birthdays and just because it's that good. I removed a star because they have room to grow. Depending on who helps you, some of the girls are not the nicest. I went to order a cake before and the lady was treating me like I was bothering her. I was trying to tell her my order but she kept interrupting me. Finally I asked her if she could let me finish what I'm saying and not interrupt. *phew* but she was able to finally take my order and every other time has been well (when not dealing with the specific person mentioned above). I've also ordered a latte and individual little mousse cakes. Yes, they have the viral fruit mousse cakes that are hyper-realistic, trompe l'œil pastries designed to look exactly like real pieces of fruit like mangoes, strawberries, peaches, or lemons. When cut open, they reveal beautiful, contrasting layers of airy fruit mousse, a intense fruit center (like a gelée or confit), and a thin sponge cake base. They are finished with a glossy mirror glaze or a thin, crunchy chocolate shell to mimic the texture of real fruit skin! Try them out, I know you'll love them. I'll end with saying, they could make the ambience a little better. It would be amazing to have a spot to sit and enjoy a party inside their store but they add the two little table and seats outside. It's in a sketch looking shopping center with a laundry mat next door and Chinese restaurant. Weirdos sometimes walk by so, now you know.
