SOOOO wonderful. The cake and cupcakes were the best I have ever tasted and they were EXACTLY what I wanted. I am a destination bride without a planner, I emailed them photos of what I wanted and they delivered perfectly. The cake was on time and I didn't even have to think about it the day of my wedding! Thank you so much Cakes by Karol... you guys rock! :)

For our wedding we didn't want cake. I know a little odd. But Karol was open to making us a rice crispy treat cake with buttercream icing. I was so impressed as soon as I saw it & the reaction from our guests was so cool! It looked like a cake but there was a little surprise inside. The crispies were perfect! We also had a surprise cake topper for my husband and Karol was more than flexible working with my close friend to get the topper delivered & in place with no problem. I really appreciated the willingness to work with my special requests. As far as I'm concerned there is no other option when it comes to a Key West wedding cake baker!

My husband and I were married in Key West April 14, 2012. Our wedding cake from Cakes by Karol in Key West was amazing! It was beautiful and DELICIOUS! The buttercream frosting and filling were to die for! We've been married 12 days and I've already called to have the same flavor cupcakes as our cake delivered to Wisconsin as a surprise to my husband! I would highly recommend Cakes by Karol!

We went with cupcakes instead of a wedding cake and they were awesome! We chose 4 flavors: key lime with raspberry filling, rum cake with pineapple filling, chocolate cake with peanut butter cream frosting and traditional red velvet, along with some key lime cookies on the side. They were a huge hit, none left at the end of the night. They were delicious and decorated to match our colors perfectly too with little sugar palm trees on them. We would absolutely recommend Cakes by Karol to anyone for a wedding cake or in our case cupcakes!!!

We chose a dessert tower with a mini wedding cake on top for our wedding. We decided since not everyone likes cake, to go with a variety of desserts. We had mini chocolate mousse shooters, strawberry shortcake shooters, and key lime tart shooters. Everyone thought they were tasty and were a nice change from your everyday wedding cake. They also make for a nice treat to take home. I like that Cakes by Karol offers many different options for a wedding dessert. Whether it's wedding cake, dessert shooters, or cupcakes you want...this is definitely the place to go with. We wanted something unique and different from the norm and they were the perfect choice. The tower looked lovely on display. They are a bit pricey, but overall I was still very happy with my choice.

DELICIOUS.... that is what I have to say about Cakes by Karol. Karol made my three tier wedding cake and it was beautiful. So beautiful in fact that all of my guest kept commenting on that fact that it was to pretty to cut, however after it was cut they all said that they were glad that we did because they got to enjoy the deliciousness that was hiding in all that beauty. I really loved my wedding cake and wouldn't have changed anything about it. I can't wait until next year when I pull that top tier out of my freezer and get to enjoy it all over again. Thank you Karol you are amazingly talented :)

As a non traditional bride, we opted to go with a full dessert spread in place of a wedding cake. Karol provided the most amazing treats for our guests from the expected Key Lime Pie flavors to Bacon Brownies (yes, that is right bacon brownies). We setup our desserts from the start of our reception with a cute sign that read "Life is Short...Eat Dessert First" and our guests followed that lead! not a crumb left, and it was a hit!! Thank you Karol!!

Oh-so-delicious! We ordered a tiered cupcake display and small 6" cake top the week of our wedding. They went above and beyond to accommodate our order on a busy 11-11-11 wedding weekend. Everything was delivered on time and totally tasty! The only issue we had was completing the paperwork over email...the forms were impossible to print with all the necessary information on the same page--a very small complaint for such an overall pleasurable experience. Would definitely recommend!

Awesome!! I am an amateur baker at home. I really wanted to make my own cake. Since we had a destination wedding, that was out of the question. I know we have old had the typical, dry wedding cake. You take one bite and never finish. This cake was nothing like that!! Delicious!!! The best cake I have ever tried! We were to far from home to be able to keep our top tier. I'm not sure it would have stayed in our freezer until our 1 year anniversary. The design was exactly what we described. They were very easy to work with. I would highly recommend to anyone loooking for a fabulous cake.

Cakes by Karol made our cake and cupcake tower for our wedding. The flavors were heavenly! We had a carrot cake with a tower of cupcakes in vanilla with raspberry filling, key lime with key lime filling, chocolate with peanut butter filling and red velvet with cream filling. Everyone loved the cupcakes, my husband and I ate on the carrot cake for a week while we were still in the Keys and it was moist and delicious every day that we stuck our plastic forks into it. I'd hire Cakes by Karol in a minute and highly recommend their services. Karol was wonderful to work with and super responsive. You won't be disappointed with their delicious cakes and cupcakes!

From the very beginning Karol was amazing to work with. We live here in Key West, so rather than go into her shop for a tasting, she made us serveral mini cupcakes in different flavors and then gave us all of her fillings. It was great. The cake was one that I found from a magazine so she had never done it befrore. It came out looking exactly like the picture. We chose her Rum Cake with Pineapple filling and everyone raved about how great it tasted! The entire time we were planning, Karol was very quick to respond to emails and so flexible with our requests. Thank you so much for helping make our day perfect!

Our butterfly design came out gorgeous. And everyone really enjoyed the layers of Margarita cake with Key Lime filling and Chocolate cake with Chocolate buttercream filling, all topped with Ivory buttercream frosting. Beautiful and delicious!

The cake was absolutely perfect!
It was the talk of the wedding and we cannot thank you enough!!!
It was literally perfect duplicate of the picture on your website and that says a lot about you and your business! Its hard to find people that take so much pride in their work and you are certainly amongst the best. By the way, it actually tasted as good as it looked!!!!
Thanks again Karol and we are beyond happy that you could make our special day even more memorable!!
I STRONGLY recomend Cakes by Karol if your getting married anywhere in the Keys! Our wedding was in Islamorada and the delivered all the way from Key West.
A++ in my book!

Cakes by Carol was FANTASTIC. For my wedding I had two cakes made: Wedding and Groom cake. They were very flexible and when I wasn't sure about something I could call and speak to them. All I did was send them pictures and asked them to recreate it. They were able to do that without a problem at a great price. They were even able to make a 3D construction crane cake - my husband loves them. It was an unusual request but they did a wonderful job. Everyone thought it looked great. The cakes not only looked great but they tasted good - very moist. The wedding cake was white chocolate with raspberry filling and the groom cake was coconut with pineapple filling. DELICIOUS.

The cake was AMAZING. It looked and tasted great! My planner was involved in the details and had recomended Karol. She was easy to wok with. I didn't have to go into much detail she knew exactly what I wanted. AND it actually tasted great! She also did several mini-deserts for us and they were spectacular as well.
