Sandra is amazing at what she does. The cake she made us was not only beautiful, but so delicious too! She allowed us to have a different flavour for each of the 4 tiers which was so nice since it's impossible to choose just one, all of the different cakes she makes are SO good! She provided a sketch of what the cake was going to look like based off of my original request and when I asked her if we could make a few alterations she was more than accommodating. The final product was everything I've always wanted, she really did make my wedding cake dreams come true!

Beautiful Wedding Cake and Pastries
We found the owner of Cakes by the Lakes to be very professional and personable. We thoroughly enjoyed the cake tastings. We decided to go with a two-tier cake for our small wedding (50 guests due to covid-19 restrictions). We initially opted for the raspberry for the bottom layer and the chocolate lovers for the top layer, however after the tasting we requested the strawberry cake for the bottom. At the wedding when we cut the cake we got the raspberry bottom. I think she must have forgotten. It was delicious just the same. Aside from this we would recommend Cakes by the Lakes to our family and friends.

Wow factor cake!
Sandra was amazing to deal with leading up to our wedding. I ordered from her a surprise grooms cake, which until we cut it, our guests didn't believe was actually cake! The cake delivered in every possible way. The look (sorry, I don't have a pic at this time), the taste, and the price. I will keep this amazing lady in mind the next time I need a spectacular showstopping cake!
