They made a custom cake for my daughter's graduation and was able to make it extra special with the decorations that they recommended. The cake was delicious My only critique is that they are deceptively large!

Raleigh Cakes made my daughter’s birthday cake, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, they were professional, transparent, accommodating, and reasonably priced.All I had to do was send them an inspiration photo, and they brought the vision to life perfectly. They offered excellent suggestions and clearly understood exactly what I wanted—something that comes only with experience and attention to detail.Unlike the other bakeries I contacted that seemed to add extra charges for every little detail, Raleigh Cakes focused on delivering a beautiful cake that matched our expectations without unnecessary upselling. The final product was not only stunning but also delicious.The cake was ready on time, looked exactly as we envisioned, and was a huge hit at the party. I highly recommend Raleigh Cakes and will definitely be ordering from them again!

My experience with Raleigh Cakes was A+. The cake was beautiful as well as delicious and exactly as I had described….a replica of a basketweave cake with flowers that my mother used to make. They are so easy to work with, pick up was easy, and you can completely trust them to create your vision. Can’t recommend them enough.

First off let me say, having to place an order fully online and communicating via email only, was definitely different. Not to mention I’m from Ohio and placed an order for pick up while I was visiting my family. I have ordered many cakes this lifetime and they were in person, and no one has ever gotten it this right! I mean from the raspberry lemon cream filling to the buttercream exterior with the raspberry ombré, fresh roses, and edible butterflies! My family from the first bite got so quiet and all I heard was “UMMMMM”. This cake was a hit! I will be back to Raleigh in December to celebrate my winter babies I will be ordering another cake!

I don’t know where to begin. First off I contacted Raleigh cakes two ish weeks before our wedding. The team responded so quick! I sent them the inspo pic & they deliveredddd! ✨ It was exactly what we wanted a beautiful cake that was 3ft long. It was so delicious! We got buttercream frosting with chocolate and vanilla flavors. So happy they were able to create this for us! Our dream cake was perfect ♥️Definitely ordering from here again!

Raleigh Cakes saved the day for me! I needed a gender reveal cake with only two days’ notice, and they were able to fit me in. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it was also delicious! The customer service was excellent, and their responses were prompt and professional. I will definitely be using them again.

We had a great experience with Raleigh cakes when ordering for my daughter’s combination 18th birthday and graduation party. Everything was clearly laid out from ordering to pick up to serving suggestions- with instructions for cutting! My initial inquiry was answered quickly and I was directed to the signature cake which was a better fit for what we were looking for. Best of all, the cake was beyond and delicious! We decided to make this the gluten-free option for our guests but no one could tell the difference and the gf folks loved it. Will definitely come back to Raleigh Cakes for future celebrations.

I can't say how much I appreciated and enjoyed working with Raleigh Cakes. They made a special groom's cake for my son's wedding rehearsal. First, it was an amazing looking cake - a home plate, with a baseball for guests to sign, their initial on the top and a flag that said "home is wherever we are together". Second, it was also a delicious red velvet cake. Working with the Raleigh Cakes Team for your special cake is highly recommended.

Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it, and my husband was completely surprised and blown away.The customer service was outstanding from start to finish. The team was responsive, professional, and genuinely cared about making my vision come to life. Thank you for helping make such a special milestone celebration unforgettable.

The cake for my son's graduation was delicious with custom decorations that made it a show piece for the party. John was responsive to my inquiries and we were able to settle on a design that fit within my budget. I would work with Raleigh Cakes again and I recommend them for those looking for delicious custom cakes.

Awesome to work with! Everyone was very impressed with the cake! I told them my vision, I got a phone call and talked it through and it came out even better than we thought!!! Would definitely recommend! They did not try to over sell me, in fact, told me where I could possibly cut costs where it didn’t make sense. This was helpful being pretty new to having someone create a cake for me!
