We've been big fans of SusieCakes for years and it was a no-brainer to get our wedding cake from them at their Manhattan Beach location. Even after loving their cupcakes and cakes for so long, our wedding cake still exceeded expectations. Everyone LOVED the cake and it was so good that even people familiar with SusieCakes were surprised to hear that's where we got our cake. We ended up getting 2 layers vanilla, 1 lemon, and 1 marble. The ordering process and communication was easy, quick, and clear. We did the tasting and the price went towards our cake which was amazing. Absolutely loved our cake and highly recommend SusieCakes to everyone!
The best cake ever. We flew back to Massachusetts with the rest of the cake and I am DEVASTATED to report that it's all gone now. All our guests who knew Susie Cakes in advance were excited about the cake and many guests who didn't know Susie Cakes told me how incredible the cake was after. Super easy to work with and they had it nicely assembled and boxed up for my brother to pick up for the wedding. We had to make a last minute addition of flourless cupcakes for some gluten free guests and it was no problem at all.
Working with a great cake specialist made our job easy. We were able to design a cake that was perfect for the wedding setting and tasted delicious. The delivery and set up were without any issues. We are still hearing about how good our cake tasted - several guests went back for seconds and thirds.
Cake was a huge hit! Staff was always friendly and helpful leading up to the big day. We received so many compliments from guests on how amazing the cake tasted!
SusieCakes did the cake for our wedding and they were sensational. First, the tasting experience was awesome - we went to the Chestnut Street location and tasted with Park. It was so helpful to not only try the flavors, but also to look at pictures of what can be done. Since we couldn't decide on one, we picked 1 tiered caked (celebration cake) and 4 other flavored cakes. They were all so good and Park recorded all of the specifics and ended up transitioning the details to Dani at the Marin location to place the order since it was closer to our venue. Delivery was also very reasonable. I would 100% recommend SusieCakes to anyone, and particularly for weddings!
We ordered the Luscious Lemon cake as our wedding cake and it was delicious! We met with Molly back in February at this location for our cake tasting and she was great. We emailed back and forth regarding the style of the cake and I found her to be very responsive and helpful. As we were getting married in Half Moon Bay, she arranged for our cake to be delivered from the San Carlos SusieCakes location. The cake was beautiful and a huge hit with our guests!
Best wedding cake ever!! We are so glad we chose Susie Cakes for our wedding cake! It is honestly the best wedding cake I’ve ever had, and that’s not just because it was my wedding! Everyone said it was amazing!! It was also beautiful! I sent them a picture for inspiration and they made it better than I could have imagined! Will definitely be recommending Susie Cakes!
Susie cakes was amazing. They designed a cake exactly as I described it to them. We had a destination wedding so we didn’t have the option of tasting the cake before the wedding. But, our guests (many of who are not cake people) LOVED the cake. One guest admitted taking cake from other tables. It was that good!
We got our wedding cake from SusieCakes and got so many compliments! Everyone was incredibly easy to work with, which was a huge help when I had so many decisions to make for the wedding. The cake was beautiful and oh so tasty!!
Yum
*I actually used the Lafayette location, but they're not listed on this site*
If you love sweets like I do, then this is the bakery for you! We were totally put off by our venue's crazy cake cutting fee, so we initially set out to do cupcakes for the guests and a small cutting cake for us. However, after going to a wedding where they opted to do a dessert bar, rather than just a cake or cupcakes, we were obsessed.
We chose the a la carte option and were so happy! Our guests loved our dessert bar. Rather than have wedding favors, we ended up ordering up on the dessert bar and provided cute take out boxes for guests to take a few treats to go- this was hugely popular!
We didn't end up saving much in the long run, but the variety was so much fun and our guests enjoyed it, and that's what matters!
We had gone back and forth on having an actual wedding cake, but decided we would go for it! I honestly didn't do a ton of research but had gotten cakes at SusieCakes before, so knew that their cakes were delicious. I emailed with Molly as we were planning our wedding from Europe and she was prompt in responding and helpful in going through all of our options. We set up a tasting when we were back in SF for a week and got to try literally all of their combinations of cakes. SO SO GOOD!!! The hubby wasn't able to come to the tasting (so a lucky friend got to come!) but Molly sent me home with FULL slices of the ones that I liked so he could try everything.
Ultimately, we decided on a red velvet, three-tiered cake with cream cheese frosting (along with a sheet cake to cover the rest of our guests). Basically to die for! I wasn't super picky about what I wanted the outside of the cake to look like and was surprised by all of our options with the cream cheese frosting (who knew they could make cream cheese frosting look like fondant!). We didn't want any crazy design, just something that looked classy and simple. I had looked at some pictures when we went in for the tasting and Molly sent more afterwards of ones. The whole process from start to finish was easy. I didn't even research any other bakeries as there was no need. Their prices were much less than I expected for a wedding cake and the cake was absolutely delicious! They also delivered the cake to our venue in San Francisco.
We have the top tier in the freezer, which I CANNOT wait to have! Fantastic service and a fantastic cake!! I would definitely recommend SusieCakes!!
Three wo words:
Chocolate Coconut Cake
The best wedding cake I've ever had, and that's not because it was at my wedding. Just like the cupcakes you love from the Marina, but enough to serve 70+ people.
We'll be getting the same cake for years for our anniversary.
I was already hooked on Susie Cakes even before my wedding. Make sure you do a tasting- they give you all these spoons of frosting to mix and match with different cakes. The only thing was since I got married on a Sunday, we had to pick up the cake Saturday. But it still tasted fresh/good. I don't want to wait a year to eat the rest of my wedding cake!
We ordered desserts from SusieCakes for our wedding, and we didn't want a wedding cake at all.. We had the dessert selection which included 6 different desserts and mini cupcakes. It was all delicious and really easy to deal with, with a good variety offering something for everyone . You do need to like frosting for the cupcakes (which we do...) and I think it would have been nice to have something special offered with the wedding order which ended up being a pretty big order - like a decoration or some signs that would come with it saying what is offered.
They did delivery for a great price, and the place set it up for us (they don't do set up though).
We had 200 people at our wedding and their biggest cake only serves about 75, so we ordered cupcakes too.
Everyone (including us) RAVED about the cake. We got red velvet and assorted cup cakes. The cake looked beautiful and was more reasonable than all the other cake places we looked. I couldn't be happier.
YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
The best I have ever had!!!
Our wedding cake was perfect. It looked exactly like I hoped it would, it was incredibly delicious, and totally inexpensive. We love susiecakes!
I love to eat wedding cake (or any cake) but let's be honest wedding cake is never a moment of aww. Susiecakes is my favorite cupcake bakery and so when I picked my wedding cake - of course I went to them as well. They can only do a max of 3-tiers and only buttercream (no fondant) but that didn't stop me. I had to have their flavors and It was a Great Decision! My cake was beautiful and tasty. Real home baked goods tasty. Not fake cake tasty. Book them if you want a tasty cake not a fancy elaborate fondant cake.
VERY nice, helpful staff. I live in L.A., but got married in the Bay Area, and both the Brentwood and San Francisco locations coordinated to help me do my tasting, and then get my wedding cakes ordered, made, and delivered on time. They did a phenomenal job - everything was as ordered, and arrived on time as promised! One of the few of my wedding vendors who didn't let me down last minute! I would highly recommend them. They have great follow up. The prices were amazing, and super reasonable for wedding cakes! Note that they don't do fondant cakes, only regular icing, but I still thought they came out looking gorgeous (I ordered a 3-tier cake in the largest size), and it tasted WAY better than a fondant cake will. You can do a lot of customization just by choosing the cake and frosting/filling flavors for each tier. A+ bakery, will be going there for cupcakes for years to come!
