Good Day, I just wanted to thank you again for the awesome power ranger cake. Tyler loved it. As usual everyone commented on how good it was too. Your talent helped make another successful party for us. Thanks so much.

Thank you so much for the Lingerie Corset cake you made! It was so cute and tasted delicious! Everyone enjoyed it! You did another awesome job! Thanks again, Rebecca H.

Dear Amy, I just wanted to tell you how pleased we were with our cake. It was beautiful and delicious. I posted pictures on my myspace of the party and cake and I have had so many people ask for your number and website so just wanted to tell you thank you and GREAT job!

Hi Amy! Thank you so much for the wonderful cake! The cake turned many heads at the Hickory Tavern last night. The waitresses wanted to know who made the cake so I gave them the card off of the cake box. Dwight said that it was the best tasting cake yet! Debbie and the kids also came last night and everyone enjoyed themselves. Thanks again! Angela F., Maiden, NC

Hi Amy, The cake was beautiful and delicious! Everyone was impressed and I gave your card to a woman who knows several food-allergic children. She just went on and on about how tasty the cake was and how she couldn't tell a difference. I've attached two pictures of Sam with the cake. Monica B, Hickory, NC

Thank you for the wonderful job you did on the cake for my son's rehersal dinner. The ambulance was a big hit and he was surprised. I was also able to get a turtle cake topper that his brother wanted and it too was a hit. The wedding cake was beautiful as well. I heard many complements on both cakes. Darlene P.

I just wanted to thank you for another job well done! Everyone awhed over the cake, and I was giving your name out left and right.

Thanks again, Karen H., Claremont, NC

Amy, i have finally recuperated. The cake was lovely and delicious. People asked who did the cake and i gave them your name.

Thank you so much. Jane H., HIckory, NC

Hi Amy, I just wanted to email and tell you thanks so much for helping make Connor’s 1st birthday so awesome. The cake was fantastic as always. We had so many compliments and so many people wanting to know where the cake came from. Thanks again and have a great week! Alicia K., Sherrills Ford, NC

We were well pleased with the shower cake. There were lots of compliments on how tasty it was, and several people asked about the baker -- you! :) I typed up a few fliers with your contact information and placed them in the lounge. Like always, thanks for being so flexible when it comes to updates and changes. Lorie F.

Hi Amy, I just wanted to take a moment and let you know that your cake and cookies were a big hit! My sister and I can't thank you enough. The cake was the talk of the party and our parents loved it. We gave the cookies as favors to our guests and they loved them! I believe you may have some future business out of some of our guests! You do a great job and should be highly recommended!

Thanks again, Candace F, and Courtney S., Washington, DC

Hi Amy, Thank you so much for the wonderful job that you did on Cadence's first birthday cakes. They were so beautiful that we didn't want to eat them! They were delicious once we finally cut into them. We couldn't believe how moist they were and the left over cake stayed that way for almost a week. We couldn't have asked for anything better.

Thanks again, Julie L.

Amy, I have been meaning to tell you that both the wedding cake and reception cake were amazing! everyone loved them! What was left over I brought to work and Wes took some to work. People at his work wanted more, and people at my store loved it! one of our part timers got your card to put in her "wedding wish box" as a reminder who to order her cake from when she gets married! she said it was the best wedding cake she had ever had!!! you have an amazing tallent and your cakes are wonderful!

thanks again!!! samantha & wesley fox

Thanks once again for making the Bass cake. He was so thrilled and told me that he had never had a cake decorated especially for him. As always the cake tasted and looked great!!!!
