best.cake.ever

Cindy was wonderful to work with. We were not exactly sure what we wanted for our wedding cake but we provided Cindy with a few examples, and she helped us create a vision and delivered a beautiful and delicious cake.
I highly recommend the cake tasting (we even did 2 rounds) as there are so many varieties to try. The options are unique, and the style of your cake can be completely customized to you and your preferences on flavors, sizing, colors, budget, etc.
We loved working Cindy and Chartier and would certainly do it all over again.

Highly Recommend

You won't be disappointed!
Most amazing treats I have ever had! I highly recommend Cindy - She is professional, friendly and very reasonably priced - the cake, mini cupcakes and the cruffles were amazing!!! Her attention to detail was spectacular. She worked with me to make everything perfect! And everything was absolute perfection.
Seriously...try the cruffles!

Fabulous! Yummy & Beautiful Gluten free wedding cake

Cindy at Chartier was a dream to work with for our July 22nd, 2022 wedding day. She was kind, professional & creative. She was able to provide us with a delicious, beautiful, and safe gluten free wedding cake. She listened to my husband & I’s wishes and created a beautiful design based on that. I would highly recommend Chartier to anyone looking for a beautiful and yummy cake!

10/10 recommend

Cindy was an absolute dream to work with, she made the whole process SO easy and our cake was beyond perfect. She was so willing to accommodate pick ups and drop off and meetings with me being out of town.

Thanks so much Chelsey! Your cake was fun to create and I am so glad that everyone enjoyed it. Using some of your own dried wheat was a neat addition to the design. Congrats again to you and Carson!

Cute and simple

We ordered a small simple cutting cake, and that is exactly what we got with a little twist. It was suggested we go with the merlot wine cake and it was a great suggestion. We provided our own cake topper and it looked too cute! Price was also very reasonable and communication was easy.

Congrats again to you and Garett!

Fantastic Cake!

Cindy did a fantastic job on our wedding cake! Exactly what we were looking for - we got so many compliments! Her cakes are the perfect level of sweetness! She was super patient dealing with our requests and everything was perfect! I already can't wait to get another for our anniversary!

Thanks so much Gabrielle! We loved being part of your special day and creating your wedding cake; especially with the adorable puppy on top!

We look forward to seeing you next year for your anniversary cake ...or perhaps even sooner for other celebration cakes! ☺️

Tastes as amazing as it looks!

Cindy went above and beyond to create our beautiful elopement cake! Our cake was simply stunning and also tasted fabulous--moist, homemade and not too sweet! During our consultation she took the time to understand our vision and then made it come to life beyond our expectations. She was a dream to work with and very flexible with pick-up. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed!
