My wife and I booked Deborah shortly after a productive and fun first tasting. We were highly impressed with the variety of Deborah’s cake flavors and her light, moist and flavorful samples. Between our first and second tastings, however, email responsiveness was sporadic. This led to some stress on our end, such that we debated whether we needed to find a backup. However, the second tasting went very well and we chose readily our flavors (green tea with yuzu crème and lavender with white chocolate mousse) and design, which we mostly left to Deborah’s excellent creative skills. We were excited about the cake and viewed our first look at the design at the reception as one of the special treats of our day. On the wedding day, traffic caused the cake to arrive very late to the venue, but it made it in time for the cake-cutting. The cake was lovely, but not as breathtaking as Deborah’s other cakes, even her smaller ones. What was disappointing (and embarrassing), though, was... Read more that one of the beautiful flowers affixed to the top layer had become dislodged such that it dangled over the second tier and left a gaping hole at the insertion point in the top layer. We surmise this occurred during transport, as we know Deborah takes pride in her creations and would never let a cake leave her shop in that condition. (Interestingly, our cake never made it onto Deborah’s Facebook page.) The damage was minor in the scheme of things and our photographer was able to capture an image of the cake from an angle that minimized the dangling flower. More importantly, the cake was delicious – moist, light and flavorful, just as her samples were, and was very well received by our guests. We can’t wait to eat the now frozen top tier for our first anniversary! All in all, we would definitely recommend City Sweets to anyone seeking a beautiful and delicious cake at a reasonable price.

Deb Lauren is an artist and someone who certainly knows her sweets! She helped us pick out the flavors for our wedding cake and was so accommodating to our gluten free guests! The cake was STUNNING...and we received so many compliments on the freshness of the cake and how wonderful it tasted. Even though everyone was full, they still ate their cake!!! Thank you Deb! xo

Deborah! We cannot thank you enough for the most amazing and delicious wedding cake! Our guests were extremely impressed with the intricate detail and of course the multiple flavors you included. The cake was out of this world and we greatly appreciate all of your amazing talents! Thank you again for adding that special touch to the most amazing day of our lives! You are highly recommended by Katrina and Charlie! Much love!

Deborah is not only an amazing artist but such a sweetheart!! First of all, our wedding cake was delicious and a work of art!! She made all my dreams and crazy pinterest ideas come to life!! I couldn't stop staring at my cake during the reception and remember thinking, "I can't believe this gorgeous cake is ours!!". She is such a sweetheart because she assured us that a year old cake is not going to be delicious. She was able to make us a fresh cake with the flavor of our choice on our anniversary and it really meant so much to us! I recommend Deborah to any bride. She is so easy to work with and talk to!! Love her!!!!

Deb Lauren at City Sweets is an amazing artist! Not only was our cake beautiful, but tasted great. Her flavor selections are the best. She uses only the best ingredients to flavor her cakes and fillings and it is evident when you taste them. We had 4 different layers and each was to die for. Champagne cake with berry filling, lemon cake with lemon filling, chocolate cake (like none other) with vanilla filling, and vanilla cake with vanilla filling. Every layer was so flavorful. Guests commented nonstop on how great the cake was. Would use her again in a heartbeat!!!

Deborah did a fabulous job creating the cake for our wedding! She is so creative and talented and the final product was gorgeous. My guests loved her cake and she was so easy to work with throughout the process. We HIGHLY recommend her! Thanks again Deborah xo

Deborah Lauren is fantastic. She was the first wedding cake vendor we saw and we fell in love right away. My husband and I are into a really unique blend of flavors and foods, so when we heard about the champagne cake, we knew we had to try it. Yeah, it's as good as it sounds, and with berry frosting in the middle, it's to die for! I wish I could preserve the cake top we have forever, but we don't even plan to wrap it and freeze it for our first anniversary, it's THAT good (we just may order another fresh one instead ;) ). The design of the cake was really beautiful as well, as Deborah took two of her previous designs and combined it into one--truly the work of an artist! I highly recommend City Sweets, and will definitely do business with her again!

Ms. Deborah is a god send. From our first conversation on the phone I knew she was going to e my wedding cake designer. On the day of the consultation (even after I had to cancel a few times) she was so pleasant and helpful. I am a picky bride and I changed mind 2 or 3 times and she never gave me any worry she made my husband and I a delicious and beautiful cake. It was better than I could ever imagine. She has such a kind heart and will make your wedding day dreams come true as she did ours. :)

Deborah is a true talent. The cake was beautiful and it tasted amazing. Very easy to work with and responsive. I am contacting her again the next time I need cake!!

The wedding cake was absolutely amazing - it was definitely a work of art! Deborah created a gorgeous five-tiered wedding cake for us with different flavors in alternating tiers. We received so many compliments on the taste and look of the cake. The cake was so moist and delicious - probably the best wedding cake I've had. We love the combo of green tea and chai tea flavored cakes. Also, the cake looked beautiful and fit our spring wedding theme so well! Deborah is a pleasure to work with - she is professional, responsive and really flexible to accommodate our needs. We are so looking forward to our first anniversary to eat the cake again!Thank you so much Deborah!

Most amazing cake that we have had in our life. Thank you for being so patient with us and understanding our needs. Our guests loved the cake

LOVED my cake! There was an incredible variety of cake flavors that were new and innovative. The tasting was sugar overload at it's finest. Deborah was a pleasure to work with and very helpful. We had our tasting several months before the wedding and upon getting closer we were even able to retry our flavor selection just to make sure it was what we still wanted.

Great service, great cake! Deborah did a great job.

Deborah was fantastic! The cake tasted simply wonderful. The only thing was, decorations was not included.
