The Frosted Cake Shop

I can not believe Tessa. I did not place the necessary deposit to secure the date? Tessa makes this seem like «I» was the irresponsible one who just didn’t honor the agreement and that I didn’t bother sending the deposit! The deposit was in the mail 2 days after our agreement! The reason she cancelled on me was because something more important than a customer came up! She had to cancel because of scheduling issues. I still even have the emails!

Contacted Tessa about a cake for my wife’s 30^th birthday on the strength of the Unilocal reviews and I was not disappointed. Tessa was very accommodating to my design ideas and produced a cake that looked and tasted better than I could ever have imagined.

I can’t say enough good things about Tessa and The Frosted Cake Shop. She made my wedding cake both beautiful and delicious. I received many compliments on how my cake was the best cake people had ever tasted, it was moist and the texture was perfect. It arrived on time and stood up to every expectation I had. Working with Tessa was easy and stressless, perfect for the overworked bride! I chose the red velvet with cream cheese filling for the top, hummingbird cake and caramel filling for the middle, and white cake with both lemon cream and raspberry filling for the bottom. Each layer got rave reviews, but my favorite (and one of the biggest reasons I chose Tessa) was the hummingbird cake. No one had ever tasted anything like it and I love that I was able to serve something original to my guests. Tessa has many wonderful flavors that are very current and she gives you a large variety to choose from, unlike some of the other cake shops we tasted where there were very few options for both flavors and decorations and they want to charge you for every little thing.
For the price, Tessa beats the competition in flavor, decorative options and pure talent. She is original and creative and I hope she stays in the Sacramento area a long time because I plan to use her again!

The cake Tessa made for Sarah’s graduation was PERFECT and truly amazing. It could not have been better. I had to coordinate the cake and graduation party from San Diego so it was risky. I couldn’t have been happier with the customer service and the cake.

For some reason, The Frosted Cake Shop and I were not destined for a relationship. Firstly, I contacted them in February for my September wedding and it took them 4 days to write me back. I had already written them off at that point, but okay.
Then I was on a diet which didn’t allow me to eat cake and once I was able to go cake tasting, I contacted them again (in April) to set up an appointment. It probably doesn’t help that I live 90 minutes away and getting to Sacramento isn’t something that I can do easily or frequently.
However, once I asked for the appointment, I was asked when my wedding date was. I told them Sept. 22^nd and it took 2 days AND a phone message to get a response that they weren’t available on that date.
Really? It would have been nice to get a head’s up that they were booking the day. I didn’t even have a chance to try to hurry up there to try to save the date. I almost feel like they are brushing me off. Like I am some Bridezilla that they just don’t want to deal with when really I’m just a bride who lives in one city and is getting married in another. Who doesn’t have the luxury of running over to taste cake on any given day.
It would have been nice to get better treatment. I’m sure their cakes are good. But I still have friends & family in Sacramento who I will NOT be sending to this shop because I don’t want them to have this kind of service. I hope they treat you better than they did me…

I originally thought I would use Freeport Bakery for my wedding cake, but was seriously disappointed with the taste, price and lack of artistic options. I think they are a great neighborhood bakery, but think they will soon faze out of the wedding industry as The Frosted Cake Shop moves in.
Guests at our wedding ALSO said our cake was «the best wedding cake they’ve EVER had.» They also said it looked almost fake because it was so intricate and cool. I gave Tessa a picture and she duplicated it to a tee. The flavors were awesome and had everyone wanting more. She has great ideas and is willing to work within your budget. The Frosted Cake Shop has also done a couple of excellent birthday cakes for me! Happy customer.

If you are over Freeport Bakery, like I am, (and even if you are not) I cannot more highly recommend Tessa. She cares. She is professional. She truly is artistic. She is creative. And she is NICE! Go here, you will never regret the experience, nor the cake. Everybody at my daughter’s party raved.

I don’t want to overkill my review with a bunch of updates, so here’s all you need to know. Guests at our wedding said our cake was «the best wedding cake they’ve EVER had.» Seriously. Exact words. (And among my friends, that’s quite a statement because 2011 was basically the «year of the wedding.»)
Specifically, our guests enjoyed the pumpkin cake with cinnamon cream cheese filling and italian buttercream frosting, but every single flavor we tasted was excellent. If outstanding flavor matters to you, call Tessa for a tasting (hey, alliteration!) ASAP. If you’re into fancy, schmancy, over-​the-​top designs, she can do all that exquisitely, but lucky for us, she also made a lovely, simple cake that fit our budget.
I found The Frosted Cake Shop on Unilocal,so I know I am only echoing other rave reviews. Still, I feel a moral obligation to shout so loudly about this one. If you need a lovely, delicious cake for any occasion, THIS is your bakery!

I hesitate to write this review as I love the Frosted Cake Shop and I don’t want Tessa to become too busy to make me a cake! Lol! I have never been disappointed by a cake by the Frosted Cake Shop. I went with a different vendor for my wedding cake, and I was sorely disappointed. I should have ordered from Tessa! Tessa has never said no to any of my designs. They are always spot on, and I always feel that my money was well spent. She has a very bright future in front of her; I love the Frosted Cake Shop!

Tessa is amazing! She is SO easy to work with, has incredible ideas and designs, and best of all her cakes are DELICIOUS! She did the Groom’s cake for my wedding and it was perfect. It looked like a pint of Guinness and tasted like a peanut butter cup! Thanks so much Tessa!
