2 weeks agoCapital Cakes is the way to go if you want a phenomenal cake that not only looks amazing but tastes delicious as well. Katelyn is awesome at what she does and believe me you will not be disappointed. When I contacted Katelyn I was about a week away from my event because I struggled with communication from the baker I was working with but Katelyn made things stress free regardless of what timeline she was working on. I feel like it was meant for me to reach out to her once I found her because the experience was everything I could ask for and more. From her communication to flexibility she is a dream come true. Don't think about it, Just Do It. Trust me you wont regret it!

a week agoI loved my wedding cake! It was exactly what I wanted. Communication was great, which I really appreciated during wedding planning. The tasting boxes were a nice touch, and the strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream was excellent. I would definitely recommend her to any bride.

3 months agoI ordered my wedding cake from Capital Cakes. The cake was so beautiful and delicious. Our guests absolutely loved it. Katelyn made sure that the color is what we want and she was on time about delivering the cake. We will definitely order from her again in future :)

7 months agoWhen I saw Katelyn’s work for wedding cakes, I prayed that she would be available for our wedding because WOW–her work is just stunning. The cake she made for us was exactly what we were hoping for and more. She got everything from the color to the texture to the taste just right. I cannot even begin to describe how delicious her cake tasted. We also ordered gluten free and vegan cupcake options–I could have just had those at our wedding and been happy; they were delicious. I cannot recommend Capital Cakes enough–Katelyn is a master at her craft!

3 months agoBeautiful and delicious cake, and they were able to do it short notice. I really enjoyed designing the cake over email! I am not very creative but they took my basic parameters and made a wonderful fall themed cake for my wife's birthday. Thank you!
