Heather made us the most stunning cake of our dreams for our wedding in mid-June of this year. She has such a wide variety of interesting and delicious flavors for cakes and she offers a great tasting option if you're curious. We went with an earl grey cake with a passion fruit curd and it was as delicious as it was pretty. She was also so amazing at creating the cake design that we wanted and even worked with us to find the perfect design that sort of married all of the designs we were looking it. She was great about asking us for our wedding vision boards and floral / colors as well so that she could make sure that the cake would tie in perfectly. Highly recommend her if you are looking for some really cool flavors and a really talented and sweet baker in the SB area.

Levain Bakery

  • Starts at $175
  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA

Handmade with love and the best ingredients in NYC since 1995. We bake fresh and ship same-day, so cookies arrive ready to enjoy (though we recommend warming them in the oven for that famous gooey center).

I ordered party favors from Levain for my best friend's baby shower and they were a HUGE hit! They were the first to go and everyone was asking for more. If you want a standout treat at your event, these cookies are perfect. The order was super easy to place, and the team was very helpful. Can't wait to order for a future event!

Jackie is incredible! We needed wedding desserts that would suit many dietary restrictions, which was next to impossible to find. Other vendors we talked to didn't even try, or completely brushed us off for having specific requests. However, Jackie NAILED it with ease! She blew us away with the taste, the presentation and love she put into every dessert. She really knows what she's doing and works with you to make sure you get exactly what you want! Highly recommend, Jackie won't disappoint!

King Marlon's Pastries 

5.0

  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA for additional fees

We are an online Dessert Shoppe based in New Orleans, La. Sourcing the freshest and most authentic ingredients. Using new and old-fashioned techniques to ensure the highest quality our customers expect. We specialize in Custom Cakes, Donut Pastries, Catering Events, pre-packaged Baked Goods, Party Treats & more.

King Marlon's Pastries was amazing in every aspect - communication, quality, taste, cost, and presentation! Marlon was amazing in accommodating our dietary requests. We are vegan and (mostly) sugar-free. We'd tried other bakeries but the quality was not great. We would have rather gotten a non-vegan cake that our guests could enjoy than have a vegan cake just to say it's vegan. However, King Marlon's Pastries did a phenomenal job! He was responsive and communicated clearly - he was also transparent about the options he could make for us and answered questions about ingredients willingly and enthusiastically. The presentation for the tasting was also amazing - he went above and beyond which gave us confidence in knowing he'd go above and beyond for our actual wedding cake. The cake itself tasted great - it was moist, not overly sweet, and complex enough to enjoy at a wedding. Thank you, Marlon! I look forward to being a repeat customer for other special cake needs.

Their staff is the absolute best and went above and beyond to make the Wild Posy set up the most perfect dessert station at our reception! My friends also used Wild Posy for my bridal shower and they did a really good job of making that very different from my wedding. Instead of the goodies I mentioned for the wedding, they did popsicle pour overs and they were delicious! Highly recommend!

My name is Julian and I have the incredible opportunity to design wedding cakes. It's such a joy to blend my passion for baking with my love for the fashion world. Watching the trends in color and textiles inspires me to find innovative ways to incorporate them into my cake creations. Each custom cake I design is a genuine expression of art. I take immense pride in sourcing ingredients from around the world, ensuring that the interior is just as beautiful as the exterior.

Chef Julian with Belladonna baking provided the cake for my wedding in November of 2022. At our initial consultation, he was incredibly kind and thoughtful. He seemed to really want to understand our love story and the vibe and theme of our wedding, and create a cake specifically for us. We brought some specific ideas and requests, and not only did he accommodate them, he was excited about them! Our cake was a show stopper in terms of both looks and taste. Multiple guests commented to us that it was the best cake they've ever eaten. We really can't recommend him enough!

Sweetness Cake Bakery

  • Serves Santa Barbara, CA for additional fees

Congratulations! This is an exciting time for you and I am thrilled to be a part of your celebration. I have been making custom cakes and desserts since 2012 and the best part about my job is YOU! I really enjoy meeting with couples, learning about their story, and coming up with a design that fits their wedding vision. I love to add meaningful details to cakes and treats, and I take great pride on the quality of the products we offer, both in look and in taste. I can't wait to discuss your wedding cake dessert dreams with you and add some sweetness to your celebration!

I cannot recommend Danielle enough. Where to start? Aside from her baking, she was wonderful to work with: kind, communicative, punctual and organized. My wife and I wanted a simple two-tier cake for our 45 person wedding, so we reached out to Danielle to schedule a "Cake Chat". (We selected three different cake flavor combinations, and then met up with Danielle to taste test and discuss what we wanted.) We were able to narrow down the flavors that we wanted this way. Plus, the cake was so good, we decided to add a third tier. :) Danielle is also able to accommodate for vegan and gluten-free diets. We were able to place a small order of vegan and gluten-free cupcakes to accommodate our guests with different dietary restrictions. These were delicious as well. The day of our wedding, Danielle and her husband arrived right on time with our cake and cupcakes. All of our guests loved the cake so much, and my wife and I are looking forward to all of the extra cake leftovers in our freezer. PS, if you need a flavor recommendation: the vegan chocolate cake with raspberry jam and cream cheese frosting is the way to go!
