Service: Custom birthday cake shaped like a Lord of the Rings book
I have been several times to Laura’s cake shop and bought different things - a cake for a birthday, some cupcakes, a cinnamon roll, and at Christmas a turron bar with special flavors like Ratafia. For my cousin’s birthday I ordered a cake shaped like a Lord of the Rings book, and Laura was advising me about the inside - I asked for cheesecake and she said no cheesecake, she recommended something more like a biscuit, and I chose what she suggested. The cake was very good, ready on time, and she was respectful and paid attention to the details. Price felt fair and according to the quality, and after that the girlfriend of my cousin called her for another cake for another birthday.

Service: Custom cakes and desserts delivery service with dietary accommodations
I have used her just personally for having her create cakes and desserts for me. She has been extremely professional, always delivered everything on time if not early, and she’s willing to bring it to my house which makes my life a lot easier - she’ll always drop it off. Her food is excellent, and she always inquires about intolerances or anything she should be aware of and can accommodate that. I saw her catering menu with a large variety of options, and she was willing to try and find other things including more savory items; a bit expensive but it’s a very high-quality product.

Service: Provided vegan cookies and cake for a child's birthday party
I hired her after trying her vegan cookies at another birthday and being so happy I could eat something since I avoid milk and eggs while breastfeeding. For my daughter’s party we ordered cookies like the ones I tried and a cake - a burnt cake with like marbre, with vanilla and chocolate - and it was delicious, very moist, and I got a lot of compliments from other parents. Communication on WhatsApp was easy, timing was flexible, and she was even ready before I contacted her. Pricing felt fair, a bit above usual cookies but well priced for vegan, and I gave feedback about some bundles being pricier than the non-pack and she took it into consideration.
