    Batman surprise cake!
    Kristin S.

    Darci was amazing to work with for our wedding cake! The initial tasting was great, she gave us so many options to choose from. After reviewing her website I found that she can do some incredible specialty cakes so I decided to surprise my husband with a Batman cake! We received so many compliments on it and it tasted wonderful! We'll be using her for any family party moving forward.

    Amazing and delicious cake!
    Stephanie S.

    Darci is absolutely fantastic to work with - professional, kind, communicative, and so talented! The cake looked beautiful and tasted just as good. Highly recommend!!

    Our daughter got married last Sat. (Oct. 24, 2020), and we used Simply Sweet as the baker. At the cake testing last summer, her cakes were moist and not overly sweet, and we liked that. They had a lot of flavor. Darci has a nice display of cakes and as well as a book to help choose icing types, etc. She is very sweet and accommodating. We had the cake delivered and rented a beautiful cake stand that made the presentation simply lovely! The cake was indeed moist, decorated just as we had asked, full of flavor, and had 3 flavors per the 3 tiers which fed 50. We loved the buttercream frosting - tasty but not too sickening sweet like so many I've had. Our top layer was a chocolate with ganache filling. The next down was the lemon with raspberry mousse filling, and the bottom was a chocolate with an amaretto buttercream. The outside was a white buttercream. I was impressed with the chocolate that actually had a cocoa flavor! I've had chocolate cakes with no flavor at all, and this one had a great flavor. The lemon cake was incredible. Chocolate is my personal favorite, but the lemon was equally up there this time. I saw all the great reviews on Yelp, and I agree with them. Darci has a wonderful talent in baking and decorating, and we couldn't have been more pleased!

    Darci is the consummate professional. Her cakes are gorgeous and delicious. Her cake was the star of the show at our wedding reception with it's gold edged fondant and flowers to match our table arrangements. Donut walls and cupcakes are in fashion right now but a beautifully crafted and perfectly execute wedding cake will never be passe.

    My wedding cake was not only beautiful, it was delicious. Thank you Darci for making my dream wedding cake come true! My now husband does not have a sweet tooth at all, but once he tasted it, he took a whole piece and was floored by how delicious it was. All my guests raved about my cake. And Darci is simply delightful- she was super agreeable when I had to change my date and so sweet through the whole process. I loved how excited she was to make my cake. Thank you!

    Darci did an amazing job on my wedding cake! She worked with me on getting the right design and details perfect. She was such a pleasure to work with. When I saw my cake in person it was more beautiful than I could have imagined. It also tasted delicious, her fillings are to die for! I would highly recommend her for wedding cakes.

    The beautiful wedding cake Darci made.

    Darci did my wedding cake and it was delicious and beautiful!!!! Fairy tale come true. I still crave the cake she makes all the time. It's so moist and flavorful and wonderful. Best baker in the world!!

She was very responsive via text. I ended up ordering a 6" 2 layer pumpkin cake (in which pumpkin is a specialty flavor and hard to find out of season) with gold leaf for $40. I forgot to ask her what kind of frosting it would come with, but ended up with a frosting that was subtly sweet and tasted like a combination of cream cheese and buttercream. The cake was nice and moist. She even threw in a "Happy Birthday" cake topper, without us even mentioning it would be for a birthday. She follows all COVID and other safety protocols. Would recommend for any cake needs in the future. It was an easy experience and everyone loved the cake! 2023 #1

You have to be in the neighborhood to come across these little shops. But, with a name like "ROXY'S CAKE STUDIO", how could you not stop in? Ok . . . yes . . .that is exactly what happened. Headed to the brewery on the corner . . . parking was limited but FOR one space in front of ROXY'S. Of course, it was like a magnet . . . and within minutes we had purchased $18 worth of beautiful sweets. A beautiful Chantilly dessert in a jar. A banana/strawberry/vanilla dessert in a jar and the most beautiful "cookie". The cookie had a lemon Oreo baked inside it. Yum! Although all of the desserts we tried were good, I'd say Roxy's real talent is DECORATING. Her baked goods are unique and beautiful and very colorful. If you have a special family occasion, I would pick up something from ROXY'S. Your family & friends will be delighted. Especially the children - colorful desserts get them every time. Love this little LOCAL shop.

Crunchy layers on the crust and buttery goodness inside that doesn't even need butter. The lady, the son(?) and the chef brought their pastry to our table even if the spot is a food court.

The owner, Bella, was very friendly and gave us tips on other spots to check out around town. What really stood out is that they don't use seed oils or processed ingredients. You can actually taste the difference. Everything feels lighter and fresher. We tried Terry Bradshaw's favorite - the crème brulee croissant. It was creamy, flaky, and worth the hype. The pistachio cronut was another winner. They bake it not fry it, yet it was perfectly crispy. The cronut also came in Madagascar Vanilla and chocolate fillings. Each pastry was also topped with edible flowers. On top of all this, it came in this cute little Louis Vuitton-style cloth to-go bag that made the whole experience feel extra fancy. Highly recommend stopping by if you are at Sawmill Market.
