Dear Melissa,

Thank you so very much for the magnificent job you did on our wedding and groom cakes! We are a somewhat
unconventional couple, and no one that we tried could provide the blend of novel and traditional that we were
looking for - until we met you!

The cakes were scrumptious (wedding: 1 tier yellow cake with chocolate hazelnut filling, 1 tier lemon cake with
raspberry mousse filling, 1 tier almond cake with fresh strawberry filling; groom: his favorite yellow cake with
mint-chocolate filling), and the guests still won't stop talking about the designs! The Scrat on top of our wedding
cake looked adorable! And Steve was happily surprised by the "signed" Georgetown Basketball groom cake.

Thank you again for your hard work, for your creativity, and for the delicious cakes.

Oh, one more thing -- my wedding planner (who has planned weddings for the past 25 years) said you were the
best cake maker she has ever worked with.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Love,
Katherine & Steve

Thanks for everything, the cake looks great. We were all impressed by how great it tasted too! I have your card, I
will be recommending you for sure!
~Emily B.
Thank you Melissa!  The cake was delicious and it was so beautiful. I loved the hint of orange flavor added to the
filling. The candy clay looked amazing. It was definately the center piece of our event.  

You really did make my task stress free!  Thanks for all your help!  

And go ahead and put down chocolate mousse for my next cake order!  That tasting was great!  Can't wait to work
with you again.

This was the most wonderful wedding cake I have tasted. The buttercream and strawberry filling were
phenomenal. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

I tasted the Dora Cake for Melissa's daughter's birthday party and the cake was definetely one of the best cakes I
have ever tasted : It was red velvet and had the best icing. The cake looked amazing and all the guests talked
about the cake for quite sometime after it was served.
~Jessica
I can definitely say I have tasted several of your cakes and all have been great. The texture was great and the
taste was phenomenal. I can't even describe how pleased I am to have found you for future cakes.

When searching online for local bakers, I was very impressed with the philosophy on the Sugar 'n' Shindigs site:
whatever we wanted for our cake is what Melissa would work to create. That she also provided
Day-of-Coordination services was a plus since we were also debating hiring a coordinator.

When we met Melissa for the first time we were a little surprised by how much she DIDN'T fit our expectations for a
wedding coordinator. And ultimately that was what we liked so much about her. Just like with the cake baking, the
coordination services were totally flexible. We came away from the first meeting believing that Melissa would not
simply be a baker or coordinator that we hired, but a partner in the creative process.

We thought her prices were extremely competitive. She also asked us a lot of excellent practical questions that we
had not thought about. We decided pretty quickly that we wanted to hire her. The first cake tasting was a delight
and we both felt that the event would be much less stressful for us if she was in charge. Weddings definitely ramp
up emotions for the extended family as well as the couple and we could tell that Melissa would be professional and
well-grounded.

She was extremely helpful and very responsive throughout the planning process, including attending at least one
Open House with us at the venue. On the wedding weekend, she took the bulk of the decorations to the venue for
us, set it all up, and did a great job of keeping us close to on schedule. She established an excellent rapport with
our other vendors and the maid-of-honor. When the event was winding down, she took care of getting all our
belongings collected to make it easy to pack up when we left.

We have absolutely no reservations about recommending her services.

Melissa was an amazing asset to our wedding. She was so welcoming to us and helpful with what we wanted. She
helped us create our perfect wedding cake that tasted DELICIOUS! I have plans to go back to her for cakes for
other events. Plus her taster cakes were super great and we were able to get a lot of opinions on what we
wanted in terms of flavors, much better than a bite on a toothpick!
