Could not be happier!
(Jan 12 2014)

COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. We looked at 3 places besides this, and we are so
happy with our choice. First, they had the largest number of samples for
the tasting, which isn't just cool because it means more cake, but because
you really get to choose the flavor combo you want. Only place with a
lemon we liked. They had one of the best prices we found, and worked with
us to maximize what we got (they even threw in some things, which while
they weren't big they made a big difference, and not that many places
do that). What we got in the end was a beautiful cake that the whole party
talked about. We liked them so much we referred them to family for a birthday,
and the cake looked so cool and precise, it could have been in a magazine.
What I learned during the process is it is as much about who the people
are as the quality of their work. These two are easy to work with, they
help you to find a cake that is you, and you won't feel like they are
wringing every dollar out of you (trust me, that's common) Great cake,
great price, and you even get an anniversary cake instead of having to
freeze a piece of cake for a dang year!

Yummy and perfect!

Our wedding cake was soo yummy and perfect! Highly advise anyone to come
here. Great prices, super customer service and attention to detail unlike
some of the more advertised bakeries to whom you are just an event date.
We were treated so well at the tasting being served and catered to one-on-one
with creative direction to help us come to the design and flavors we wanted.
Communication was great all the way through the process. On the day of
the event, my flowers were late and she waited for them to arrive so she
could place them. My hubby and I are just thrilled and thankful for finding
this place. One of the best if not THE best in town!! Dave and Waldi are
super!

Waldi was a pleasure to work with. Our wedding cake was amazing. We picked
red velvet with cream cheese filling and chocolate with chocolate mousse.
It was delicious. If we need a cake for any occasion we will get it here.

Cake and Candy Specialties made our wedding cake. David and Waldi were
such a joy to work with. The cake was beautiful, Waldi accomodated some
last minute requests (a monogram on the cake and a gumpaste HULK to surprise
my groom) and handled them well. Everyone loved this cake. We had vanilla
with strawberry filling, vanilla with chocolate mousse and pink champagne
cake with raspberry filling. Delicious! We also shopped in their candy
supply section. They have really cool candy molds, cookie cutters, and
shaped cake pans. They also sell gumpaste, fondant, flavors, fillings
etc. We bought chocolate to use for our favors, they offer milk, dark
and white chocolate in quart and gallon bags. It tastes way better than
the wilton candy melts. I would recommend Cake and Candy Specialties to
anyone!

Creative help and a beautiful, delicious cake!

The day I walked into this store I felt that sense of uniqueness. I began
my creative ideas with David and then Waldi walked into my life. The oh
so creative one! How fortunate I was to have found her. The wedding cake
was absolutely beautiful and well set up! They completed all tasks, even
time of delivery, to perfection. Everyone loved how the cake tasted and
asked where I had bought it. We will always appreciate their time and
talents put into making our wedding day special!
A perfect cake!

We want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to Waldi and David for our wedding cake!
It was perfect and beautiful and tasted amazing! Our facility owner told
us there is normally a ton of cake left over and for ours, there wasn't
a bit left!
Beautiful, delicious, friendly

David and Waldi are the owners. He does the cake tastings and customer
service and she makes the cakes. They really are a perfect team. We made
an appointment for a wedding cake consultation and we were welcomed right
when we walked in. David was so hospitable. He brought out a beautiful
plate with different style of cakes and frosting's. Everything tasted
wonderful. We browsed through photos of their previous work. We went with
one of their styles, but they are more than willing to make anything you
want. The best part is their prices are at least a third of the cost than
other places I visited. We went from a small two layer to a bigger three
layer because their price allowed it! Our wedding cake turned out beautiful
and tasted great!
Highly recommend - great cupcakes!

My wife wanted cupcakes for our wedding. We ordered cupcakes with strawberry
cake (white mousse filling), lemon cake (lemon filling) and pink champagne
cake (raspberry filling) and loved all three. We got tons of compliments
on how good they were and most of them wanted to know the name of the
baker. The little designs on fondant on top of the cupcakes also looked
great. Waldi and David were great to work with and they asked many questions
to make sure that we got what we wanted. If you need cake or cupcakes
for your event I recommend Cake & Candy Specialties.
Delicious and a great deal!

DELICIOUS and perfectly made! We used this place for our wedding cake
and desserts. Right from the start, David (owner) was extremely helpful,
knowledgeable and easy to talk to. We tasted and looked at many pictures,
and made a 2nd appointment to come back with an order. When we came back
he was just as helpful. We ordered a 6" round cake (Red Velvet) for
my husband and me, and then several different kinds of cupcakes, bars,
petit fours and cookies for our guests. We are more than satisfied with
what we received. We feel we got a very good deal, dollar-wise, and everything
was lovely and delicious. I think it's the best red velvet cake I've had,
and that's my favorite! We ate the other half of our cake 2 days later
on the beach on our honeymoon, and it was still moist and yummy.
Dear David and Waldi,
We just had to let you know what a magnificent job you did on our friends
surprise anniversary "suitcase" cake.My girl friend walked by
it once and just thought it was a little suitcase!Everyone there wanted
to know where we ordered this beautiful AND delicious,moist and fabulous
cake.Many had ordered cakes for their children's weddings,showers,etc.in
the past from other places and all agreed this was the best they ever
tasted!
Your prices are VERY reasonable as well which was an added bonus! Also,I
just want to say that you both are the friendliest,customer oriented specialty
cake shop I have ever dealt with.Thanks again!
Sincerely,

Hi Waldi,
My note to you is LONG overdue! The cake you baked for my daughter's first
communion was the tastiest and freshest cake I've had in a very long time.
Your fondue was perfect and so fresh! Thank you, thank you! Many family
members asked where I purchased the cake and I told them all about your
bakery and its location.

This is the best I have ever tasted. A friend brought a cake to a birthday
party and "WOW" I could not get enough of it and it was decorated
like nothing I have seen. It was the birthday girl all over again.

I have been a fan of the owner Waldi Paige for years. She is dedicated
to quality in everything she does. Today I enjoyed a Petits Four that
had a hint of almond and just the right amount of raspberry filling. YUM!

The appeal starts with site. They do an excellent job at decorating and
if you have a special need they will try to accommodate you very well.
But once you taste them it's hard not to stop eating, they're so good!
And what I particularly like, they're not too sweet and sugary.
