The Cake Studio

Recommended by The Knot, Bride's Magazine, and a billion other places, the Cake Studio simply lives up to the hype. If you need a cake made for any reason, I suggest going through there and having Katie prepare you for one of the best cakes I've ever managed to eat.Seriously, it's a reason to get married on its own.

I used the cake studio to make my wedding cake. I gave Katie a picture of what I was looking for and she replicated it almost to a tee! Her fondant flowers were impeccable. She was also willing to work with us in areas of difficulty. For instance, we really wanted buttercream frosting but we were having our reception outside in August, so we feared buttercream would melt in the heat. Katie was willing to watch the weather and work with us. The cake flavors were also delicious -- we had a 3-tiered cake. Two layers were her signature strawberries, chocolate, and vanilla, and the other layer was lemon cake with strawberries. The cake looked perfect and was delicious!

Great cakes great designs but lousy business practices. They owe my daughter a $100..00 deposit for over 40 days. They have excuses like I lost your address, I mailed it but it was never cashed, I put it in the mail today. Have left numerous phone messages with little response. When they do respond it is just another story. Going to have to take legal action to collect $100. Good product but terrible business people. So sad but beware

I've tried for several months to get in contact with The Cake Studio to try and arrange a cake for my wedding. I've sent emails, left a voicemail, and sent a facebook message and I've never received a reply to any form of communication. I kept trying because my fiancé and I had tried the cake at a bridal show and it was by far the best. My wedding is two months out and I can't wait any longer. If you don't have capacity or aren't interested for some reason, politely declining would be appropriate. Right now the only message being put out is that you're either not interested in doing business or at least clearly not interested in my business.

Our wedding cake didn't look anything like the example cakes in her studio. It was sloppy, messy and I really wish I hadn't paid $1000 for something that my mother could have done a better job decorating. Too late now, but I really recommend not going with this company for your wedding.

I ordered my cake from Katie for my summer wedding. I found her business through WeddingWire.com and I fell in love with her cake photos from her website. She was very quick to get back to me about my inquiry and when we sat down to design my wedding cake, it was a breeze! Her prices are a bit expensive but she offers ways to fit your budget. On my wedding day, I absolutely loved my wedding cake!! It was very pretty and delicious. On the down side.. a $100 deposit was required for using her cake stand. I was told once her cake stand was returned to her, she would refund the $100. Well, on my wedding day there wasn't a cake stand at all which was very disappointing. After contacting her several times about my refund, a $100 check was mailed but it was bit of a hassle getting my money back.

We must have had a dud. Katie's cakes in her house were pretty, but our wedding cake we just disappointing. It looked like it was hastily made from freezer backup cakes the morning of the wedding.The tiers looked like they were melting and the fondant flowers were awful half-painted things that I could have made myself. She couldn't even take the time to make the flowers one-color. For $600 I expected a stunning, perfect cake... not something that looked like I could have done better myself. We would have had a prettier cake from Giant Eagle for a fraction of the price.Guests at least liked the cake (or said they did) but my husband didn't think it was anything special. It sort of tasted like it was pulled out of the freezer.I would not recommend the Cake Studio to anyone and would in fact advise people to better spend your money on grocery store cake if you want any value for your money. Katie ignored our questions about the cake after the wedding as well.Do yourself a favor and don't bother with this place.

Although she makes a delicious cake, how embarrassed i was when i saw my cake. After weeks of boasting to friends and family about how beautiful my cake was going to be, then to walk into the reception to a completely wrong one! - the color was wrong - the topper was wrong - the ribbon was missing - the cherry blossoms were pathetic, they were yellow instead of white. I emailed Katie, & called her, but have yet to even get and apology or even a response. The only acknowledgement I have rcvd so far was her disputing my reviews. I would not recommend this company if you want the design to be correct.
