Boom Botts Cakes

The amazing gender reveal cake Vinny made was a big hit. I called him from Philly and gave him very little direction as to the design and what he created exceed my wildest expectations. It was soo cute, and super tasty, and his prices are more than fair. I only wish he lived in the Philly market so I could order every special occasion cake from him!

My wedding cake from Amanda Oakley’s in Boston was fantastic.
So fantastic that we couldn’t help but eat it off the floor when the top tier smashed onto my BU apartment floor as we moved out.
Le Sigh.
So now, a year later, we decided to get a replica in our new hometown of Rochester. We contacted Vinny of Boom Botts through my co-​worker thinking we were just getting a regular/​albiet delicious old cake. We gave a brief description (lemon/​raspberry with italian meringue) and waited.
Not only did Vinny not give us a regular old cake, he researched our wedding cake pictures and recipes and made an exact copy. Only this one was not a year old and stale. Oh no, this was one of the most moist and flavorful lemon cakes I’ve ever eaten. And let me tell you something, I know my lemon cakes. The italian meringue had just a touch of sweet and super smooth and velvety. Vinny also took the time to make the fondant red ribbon (a very key component of our tiny wedding) of our top tier. The work and care he took to make our little cake was wonderful and touching.
We will definitely contact Boom Botts for future cake-​ventures. And believe me, I love my cake-​ventures. Now excuse me while I hunt down my husband who took off with our leftover cake…
