The cake you created for our daughter's wedding surpassed our expectactions. Not only was it a work of art, it was absolutely delicious as well. It looked just like the photo on your website. Many pictures were taken before the cake quickly disappeared. Everyone oohed and aahed over the elegance and wonderful flavor. You delivered it to the restaurant well in advance of the arrival of the guests and it was displayed beautifully. We had to make wedding plans on very short notice and your staff was so helpful. This was no small feat, as you had to work with us long-distance. Thank you for adding so much to such a joyous occasion. Your creativity and attention to detail are unparalleled in our opinion. You are quite simply the best in Boston. Steve and Susie Tunning Middletown, OH

Amanda makes truly delicious cake. Our consultation with her was professional and pleasant, and she understood our needs and ideas perfectly. If you want a cake that looks good AND tastes good, I highly recommend her. Our cake was a three tiered apple and pumpkin cake. It was so moist and yummy that my husband got me a small apple cake from Amanda three months later for my birthday.

Amanda and her team created a stunning, creative and tasty wedding cake for our wedding at the artists for humanity epicenter. She created a visually arresting design based off our invitations that was just out of this world. Some of our guests initially thought it was not a real cake- it looked that unbelievable! It was a very collaborative design process and I appreciated that Amanda had a background in art- it definitely showed when it came to the cake. I also am continuing to get compliments on both the look and taste of the cake. I never thought I'd hear someone say "that fondant was so tasty!" but her homemade marshmallow fondant is pretty awesome and the cake and fillings were delicious. Payment and delivery was seamless- there was a whole team there making sure everything was just right and it was. I am not sure I can wait until our 1 year anniversary to eat the cake we froze....

Amanda and her staff made an amazing daisy cake for out wedding. People kept asking me if the cake was real, as it looked just that perfect. I would not hesitate to recommend Amanda as she and her staff are friendly, outgoing and do beautiful work.

It's the day after my wedding and before I even finish opening my gifts or start writing the thank you cards, I want to post this review -- I am that impressed! I chose Amanda Oakleaf Cakes on a complete whim. My husband Ryan is really into cake shows, so I thought it might be kind of cool to leave my comfort zone of the vanilla cake + white icing three-tiered deal and get something a bit different. Ryan and I were getting married at a friend's beach house in Nahant, so we wanted something beach-themed. Amanda had some great ideas. What we ended up with was a massive cake (at least by regular standards) that matched the scenery, our invitations and captured our style. In fact, the sugar replica of Graves Light was completely on point and the figurines of the two grooms (these folks are very same-sex marriage friendly, we were well-treated) were really cute. Everyone at the wedding raved at how the cake looked and then raved again when they tasted it. The buttercream frosting was so creamy and even better with our graham cracker crumb "beach sand." Both the red velvet cake and the lemon cake (yes, I had two pieces) layers tasted wonderful. Amanda Oakleaf and team are a very talented bunch. If you want something special to make your occasion even more memorable, I think you should give them a call.

We had Amanda Oakleaf create a cupcake wedding tower for us with a square topper and caricatures of my husband and I on top. They were the most delicious cupcakes/cake I've ever had at any event--and I'm proud to say it was my own. The adorable caricatures were so spot on and so fabulous. The cupcakes were absolutely scrumptious and the entire thing a huge hit. The topper, decorations, and entire cupcake tower were so perfect and so us! They did an amazing job of capturing us and the sentiment we were going for. I should add that all the cupcakes were consumed! Yum!

To anyone looking for the most spectacular wedding cake of their lives, Amanda Oakleaf Cakes delivers. We had two cakes made for our wedding event. One more traditional three-tiered cake and one specialty cake consisting of a scene set in the Grand Tetons National Park with figurines of ourselves, and our two dogs, hiking. Not only was the professionalism beyond appreciated the cakes were better than we could ever have imagined and tasty too! We got so many positive comments on our cakes of guests wanting to know who did them for us and how we found them that we just started handing out Amanda Oakleaf's notecards with the information on them during our reception! I would truely recommend using this vendor to ensure that your wedding cake dreams come true.

The cake Amanda created for us is not your typical wedding cake but rather a piece of art. Besides looking stunning it was extremely delicious. (And fondant is not easy to pull off) We highly recommend her.

My husband and I had some specific ideas in mind for our Red Sox/Yankees themed wedding cake and had struggled to find a baker that could turn our ideas into cake. We met with Amanda and were delighted not only by the taste and quality of her cakes and frostings, but also by her enthusiasm to work with us. The cake turned out amazing and was the talk of the wedding. We wholeheartedly recommend Amanda and her team and will look to her for future cakes as well.

I had Amanda design a custom wedding cake in the shape of an airplane as that's where my husband and I met. You cannot believe this cake, it was amazing! This was a surprise for my husband and he was absolutely blown away as were all of our guests. It was much more life-like than I ever imagined and it tasted yummy...lemon cake with raspberry merengue. The staff was professional and easy to work with and I would use her again in a heartbeat for any specialty cake needs...birthday, anniversary, etc. It was hard for me to schedule a tasting as I'm not local and there aren't weekend tastings but Amanda was kind enough to make up a batch of cupcakes in different flavor combinations so we could choose. People are still sending notes about this cake!

Amanda did not make a wedding cake for me, but did design a custom cake for my husband's 40th birthday. He liked it so much he made everyone wait an entire day before cutting in to the cake. The cake design was based on album cover art work for Iron Maiden's Benjamin Breeg Album. I sent her pictures and my ideas for the cake and she made my vision come to life! Our guests were in awe. What an artist! Not only did the cake look amazing, but it tasted wonderful as well! Her cake helped make my husband's birthday party an unforgettable event! I want to get married again just so I can have her design my wedding cake!

I would highly recommend Amanda as a cake provider for any special occasion. Our wedding cake was her unique design, as she listened to what we wanted and came up with a perfect solution. The flavor of the cake was wonderful, and we received many oohs and aahs from guests as to the design and presentation! Overall a wonderful choice for us and we'd work with Amanda again happily!

My daughter's birthday cake - the cutest Golden Retriever puppy wearing a #33 Red Sox Jersey - was the BEST! Amanda worked with our ideas, improved upon them, and delivered a fantastic and delicious cake. It was the hit of the party. We shall definitely order again from Amanda. In our opinion she's The cake boss!

I got a custom birthday cake for a friend. The service and the cake were both excellent. Patient seller, took the time to listen to me and even accommodated when I asked for a delivery date change!. As for my friend she absolutely loved the cake and keeps talking about it non-stop. Thank you!

Also, the cake was delicious!!! The butter cream was the best that I have tasted. I received many compliments on the cake...I would definetly order another cake from Amanda in the future... Thank you! Kim
