I have ordered cakes from Cake Me Home for the last 5 years or so and I have been so happy with the quality, taste, and workmanship Renee puts into each of the cakes. The details are exquisite and beyond what my initial expectations are. The taste is amazing and not too sweet at all (as that is what I love). I would highly recommend Cake Me Home to anyone who is looking for a cake made with love and hard work.

I wanted to thank you for the beautiful Frozen cake you made for my daughter's 5th birthday. The detail you put into it was unbelievable, from the multi layer brushed petals to the sparkly finish. I absolutely loved it!!! On top of that, it's the most delicious birthday cake I've ever tasted - rich and moist but not too sweet. Everyone who saw and tasted the cake said the same.
You are truly talented and you've made my daughter's birthday special!

"Thank you for my daughter's baptism cake. It was excellently decorated - very simple, but extremely elegant. What totally surprised us was the height of the cake. It was just as big as my daughter and the quantity was perfect.
At the event, we received rave reviews about the flavour and how the cake was NOT too sugary / sweet. The lemon and vanilla were a perfect addition for dessert after the Italian lunch that was served. I appreciated that it was not very sweet as compared to other cakes I have tasted before. Thank you once again for helping us celebrate this sacrament with our family." -- Charlene Mendes, November 2014

"My daughter LOVED the mini pink and purple doll cakes that were made for her 8th birthday and had to take home one of each! I gave the cakes as the loot bag and the girls loved it. We had people from other parties coming up and asking about the cakes as well.
Cake Me Home always manages to make Emma feel so special on her birthday and I can always see it on her little face especially when she hands out the cakes to all her friends. So thank you very much for all the time and care you put into the cakes - you have made my little girl so happy year after year."

Once again thank you for making the day very special and putting your heart and soul into the cake." -- Gauri Rangel, October 2014

"Thank you for our wedding cake. It was definitely a centre piece at our wedding. Wow! The cake Renee created was fantastic in every way. We went the non-traditional route and had cupcakes with a small cake on top. It was not only beautiful, it was delicous too! The team from Cake Me Home went above and beyond our expectations to create something that fit the style of our wedding and was within our budget. We are looking forward to our next cake!" -- Lena Bucciarelli, October 2014

"I was introduced to Cake Me Home years ago through a friend. I fell in love immediately! My first experience was for my 30th Birthday. Renee delivered the cupcakes to the restaurant before my event started and they were gorgeous! I have also turned to Cake Me Home for my son's 1st Communion cupcakes and my daughter's Baptism cake/cookies. I still get compliments on the cakes from my friends and family. Cake Me Home takes my vision and surpasses my expectation every time. I can't wait to see how my daughter's 1st Birthday cake will turn out!!" -- Hayley Morris, October 2014

“My most confident endorsement of the ladies at Cake Me Home for doing a wonderful job in cakes for any occasion. They presented us with a lovely ceremonial cake for the departure of one of our priests here at St. Francis de Sales Parish, Ajax, and all were sweetly pleased with their wonderful work and presentation. Thank you and we will be making use of their professional service once again.”

"Recently my friends threw me a very nice retirement party complete with good friends, good food, touching
sentiment and your grande cake. When first I saw it I was overjoyed with its relevant content and wonderful craftsmanship. The attention to detail was both amazing and humorous to us all. To say it captured the attention of the party goers is an understatement. The fact that it was as delicious as it was aesthetically pleasing was not lost on anyone either. Renee, I send you my heartfelt thanks for your baking ability and your creativeness. It made for a unique centre piece for the evenings fun. You came highly recommended and remain so for any I encounter that require a master cake decorator. Thank you again for your part on my evening of revelry."

"For two years in a row, Renee made us the most beautiful works of art for our son, Kahzmir's 5th and 6th birthdays. Each of the cakes, both from classic Dr. Seuss stories, The Cat in the Hat and the Lorax were works of art because guests at the party came to the cake table and couldn't take their eyes off the them! The hardest part was cutting the cakes! But once we did, we licked our fingers because the inside was just as good as the outside! Working with Renee was such a pleasure. I had very specific ideas about what I wanted the cakes to look like and what I didn't want them to look like. She listened carefully, gave me good feedback and then went off to do her research. She put a lot of time, effort and love into the cakes and the results showed! Even though I had a good idea of what I wanted the cakes to look like, she managed to wow me when she opened up the boxes! Whenever I think of those cakes they bring the fondest memories of a time in my child's life that are so precious. I am so glad I found Cake Me Home! For a cake you will never forget, I couldn't recommend Cake Me Home enough!" -- Minaz Asani-Kanji, March 2014

"The 2010 Audi A5 was delicious for the eyes and taste buds. Chocolate and strawberry were the perfect combination for this cake. The chocolate cake was moist, rich and flavourful. The strawberry buttercream was heavenly smooth with the right amount of sweetness and berry flavour. The design was thoughtful and detailed. Renee asked me the right questions and paid attention to the key features that made this cake truly unique. The toughest critic was the car owner and he was truly impressed." -- Vivian Chang, April 2013
