This past October my partner and I worked with Paula at Cake Fiction for our wedding at Jack’s Barn in Oxford, NJ, and were so impressed! We initially set up a tasting at their kitchen/shop, which was so much fun. Paula and her husband were so lovely and their shop space is too cute! We booked them on the spot, and worked with them to design a two-tier wedding cake and a dozen cupcakes. So delicious! They were a hit at our wedding and we still receive compliments on the cake/cupcakes. We’d recommend Cake Fiction to anyone who’s looking for a tasty and unique cake/dessert for their event!
I highly recommend Cake Fiction. Paula does incredible work! She made a beautiful and delicious cake for my wife's 30th birthday party.
Not only did it look great but it also tasted great too! Even the fondant was tasty. The price was also reasonable and she is easy to work with.
If you need a custom cake make sure you call her, she is one of the best!
I love this place and could not say enough wonderful things about them. Our first experience with them was a traditional carrot cake for my 40th birthday ordered through a local restaurant which was just like a cake my grandmother used to make and amazing.
Yesterday, we enjoyed this custom anime themed cake for my daughter’s sweet 16. While anime may not be anything, the team at Cake Fiction took the challenge and even hand painted an amazing titan.
The price was fair and they were so easy to work with.
For 2 years in a row, Paula has been making delicious cakes that are works of art for our little one for his birthday. She has made his dreams come true by putting in so much detail into the design of the cake, adding fine little details that has not failed to put a smile on his face. All our guests rave about how delicious her cakes are and the portions are very very generous that there is plenty of left overs for our guests to take home happily. I am so lucky to have found Paula and Cake Fiction and I am never buying special occasion cakes anywhere else!
Cake Fiction was the one vendor we used from a recommendations list our venue gave to us. I am SO glad we did. Their barn itself is also super cute, just going up for the cake tasting session was magical in itself. Picking just 3 flavors to sample from their list of cake combinations was so hard, which was a good thing! You are allowed to have a different flavor for each layer of cake at no additional cost, so we had fun with those.
We picked the olive oil cake with passion fruit cream, the walnut almond pound cake with raspberry mousse, and the lemon cake with orange flower blossom cream. Well, my husband talks about that passion fruit cream more than any other part of our wedding (I try not to be too upset about that), it was that amazing! My favorite flavor was the raspberry mousse, and I keep hearing a ton of compliments on that flavor in particular from our guests. The only critique I would give to Cake Fiction is that they didn't give the venue a list of the flavors so nobody knew what each layer was and my husband and I had picked the flavors months before and couldn't remember either.
I also appreciate how up-front Cake Fiction was with their pricing, which is listed online on their website to give you an idea of an estimate for your cake. We ended up going with a naked cake with just buttercream frosting on the outside which saved us a bit of money, and it looked so beautiful after our florist put a couple of flowers on it for us and it really fit in well with the theme of our barn venue. I made my own cake toppers out of clay and they were a little heavy so I was worried about them on top possibly sinking into the cake, but the cake was sturdy and the topper sat up there proudly!
And finally, Paula is also the sweetest lady ever and you can tell she really has a passion for her work. It's lovely that we have such a great wedding cake baker in New Jersey. Now if only they would open a tiny bakery so that we can get two cupcakes with our flavors next year for our anniversary. :)
I am so happy with choosing Cake Fiction for my wedding day! Paula did an amazing job and made the cake of my DREAMS for my Alice in Wonderland theme wedding. Our wedding cake was great, followed by some Eat Me cupcakes for our guests and best of all the Mad Hatter Tea Party Clock display cake we get to keep and cherish for years to come. Thank you again for adding the special touches to my wonderful wedding day!
