Confections

When I first inquired about the cake. Gal said it would be $70/ $55 for a 1/2 sheet cake and the decorations is $15 for the Doc Mcstuffin theme. There was also supposed to be a 10% craigslist discount.After seeing the many decorated cakes on her fancy website and inquiring with Gal, i figured the cake would be pictured with our theme; it would be decorated as doc Mcstuffin and as she indicated there would be a few toppers. I wanted to ensure that i was able to get a cake with this decoration for my daughters birthday since a 2 tier/3D fancy cake could not meet our budget.I contacted Gal on 3 occasions to confirm pricing, purchasing and pick up. I thought during this time, she took my order and unfortunately we were not on the same page.I sent my husband down there to pay $70 for the cake. However, she made him look thru a book of 1"x1" pictures of cakes and choose cake toppers to add to the cake. The toppers were $5 each, for the exception of one that was 1/2 the size. Anyhow, the cake came out to $90. I had to call her and asked why the cost was different then what she quoted me? She said "your husband chose all the cake toppers." I told her that i gave her my order and he was supposed to just taste the cake, choose a flavoring and pay for the cake. Anyhow, I didn't have time get into it and just left it at that.Fast foward to Scarlet's 2nd birthday. See the cake for your self. It was a regular lightly flowered-decorated cake with toppers on it. Really? I could have paid $25 for a Costco cake and order cake toppers on amazon for half the price. What does flowers have to do with our theme? What a disapooinment. She couldn't paint a stethoscope, doctor bag or bandaid on the cake? Her website shows all the other cakes decorated as themed. Unfortunately, the taste of the cake wasn't amazing either. There was a very thin layer of the flavoring that you get to choose from a selection of 5. Everyone kept asking what it was. It was supposed to be guava strawberry and unfortunately it tasted like a cheap version of guava jelly. The whip cream was too sweet as well. The cake separated at this layer too. It was cake, guava/strawberry flavoring/ cream/cake and it was falling apart while serving. The cake was in the house the entire time. It was hot though, but i don't believe that was the reason for the separation.Moral of story... Open communication. Make sure you know what you are buying. Maybe ask for a bigger picture that will be exactly what you are looking for. Ask for direct cost and not a generic quote.

This store and Gail is amazing! She is awesome in making cakes come to life! We were so very lucky to have met her! she made our wedding cake exactly how we envisioned it and more! The flavors she did the cake with were mouth watering and yummy! It was more than we imagined! The whole cake was beautiful! She not only communicated with us to ensure we were getting what we wanted she even held a tasting and my husband loved it! Her guidance and knowledge in combining flavors and frostings to ensure it would hold in this hawaii weather were invaluable! We were blessed to have found her! She also recently did our daughters sweet 16 masquerade themed cake! And boy she rocked it! It was truly beautiful and she displayed the theme perfectly! Our daughter was very happy! Not only does her cakes look Amazing but they taste like nothing you have tasted before! She is a very professional woman and we highly highly recommend her for all of your cake needs!

This was just an overall poor experience, quality and all. My husband went in to order with a picture of how I wanted my daughters succulent birthday cake to be and he said that they kept questioning our theme/decor we wanted for it as if we had to choose a character themed cake just because. He then showed them the picture and tried to explain the colors and they kept writing down the wrong ones and he had to repeatedly ask them to make note that it was purple, and green tones we needed and he said they kinda just brushed him of and was all yeah yeah we got it....long story short when we went to pick up I literally laughed as if it was some sort of joke...for $150!!! we got a teeny tiny cake with Christmas colored ( red and green) roses and leaf like things that were intended to be succulents...I was nearly in tears with frustration but it was too late to do anything about it and my husband is not one for confrontation or complaining, so I just bit my tongue. I hoped for the price it would at least taste amazing but it did not at all it was so bland, it was suppose to have guava and strawberry filling but literally the inside was filled with just frosting. Never ever again! For the price paid I expected much better quality and craftsmanship. Lesson learned.

Thank you Confections Hawaii for the very beautiful AND delicious birthday cake, and cupcakes that you delivered for my daughter's birthday party. The audience loved the Sophia mascot that you brought. It was fun and entertaining with the mascot dancing! I recommend Confections Hawaii to anyone who wants delicious cakes, cupcakes, and cool character mascots.

Awful. I'll say it in eight words...they forgot to make my daughters wedding cake. We went to pick up her cake on her wedding day only to find out they did not make it. We ended up going to Costco for her cake. Awful.
