Lara and her staff at Fluffy Thoughts did an AMAZING job on my wedding cake. I was contemplating not even having a cake since most wedding cakes I've tasted have been not worth the money. However, I decided to give it a shot and received a recommendation for Fluffy Thoughts. My maid of honor and I went in for the cake tasting and were really happy with everything we tasted. In addition, their presentation was so unique. Right away I fell in love with the pumpkin cake and I decided I had to have it! All of my wedding guests RAVED about the cake and called me for days after telling me it was the best cake ever, even the ones who don't care for sweets. I had some left over to take home and I had friends fighting over it the next day. Not only did it taste fabulous, but Lara and her staff did a great job pulling off the design I requested. I changed the size and design a few times and they didn't hesitate once. Eventually I sent them a picture of what I wanted and they executed it flawlessly! It looked beautiful and elegant. I would definitely hire them again to do another cake in the future!

I chose Fluffy Thoughts to provide the cake for my wedding based upon the excellent reviews I had read, and I could not have more impressed with the taste and style of the cake that Lara and her team designed. We had a vision of what we wanted the cake to look like, and Lara was able to create exactly the style of what we had in mind. The cake itself tasted phenomenal, and I am typically not a cake/sweet eater at all. Everyone at my wedding raved about the cake, and we repeatedly heard from the guests that this was the best wedding cake they had ever had. The cake tasting was extremely helpful in learning on how all the numerous options for flavor, fillings, and frostings would work together. Communication with Lara and her team was a breeze, and everything from the ordering, design, and delivery was very efficient, uncomplicated, and stress-free. I highly recommend Fluffy Thoughts if you are in the market for a cake of any sorts, and I will not hesitate to use them myself again!

All I can say is WOW! Fluffy Thoughts did an absolutely incredible job with both our wedding cake and our festive "groom's cake" for the rehearsal dinner. Both cakes tasted so good that when we fed them to each other in the key moments of the evening, we actually ate the entire forkful of cake instead of just shoving it in each other's faces. :) Both cake and frosting were flavorful, not too sweet, and light and fluffy. The fondant icing was particularly delicious! We chose the cake flavors from a wide variety offered to us during our tasting, as well as little additions like chocolate crunchies. The design of both cakes was outstanding. They designed a classic wedding cake accented with the beading design of my gown, with beautiful fondant flowers all over the cake. For the groom's cake, we chose a ski mountain design because that's where we met. Fluffy Thoughts did a great job designing a mountain with a chair lift and a little bride and groom on skis. Very cute and creative! In terms of process, the staff was very responsive to my emails, and they gave us a free tasting, which was a lot of fun! I plan to use Fluffy Thoughts again for future cake needs.

We hired Fluffy Thoughts for our wedding cake simply because they offered the most unique flavors. We wanted a seasonal cake for our Fall wedding and as soon as I saw online that they offered a pumpkin cake, I booked our tasting. I had no idea what I was in for – the tasting with Lara was amazing! We tasted so many unique flavors and combinations it was difficult to choose just three. We decided on pumpkin cake with layers of caramel and maple cream cheese, white cake with raspberry jam and lemon butter cream, and chocolate cake with chocolate ganache. Our cake truly tasted the same or better than the tasting! All of our guests raved about the unique flavor options and everyone loved the pumpkin cake. I also think Fluffy Thoughts is comparable or lower in cost than other bakeries that charge extra for things like fondant or fillings. Our cake was also more stunning than I had anticipated (by the way, I never thought that I would use the word “stunning” to describe a cake!). I provided Lara with a photo of a cake design that I liked and Lara made it more beautiful than the photo. Their customer service cannot be beat either. I could go on and on, but simply put: our cake was affordable, beautiful and tasted great!

Their cakes are amazing. We received many, many compliments on our wedding cake. The tasting process that Fluffy Thoughts uses is very unique and allows you to taste just about any combination you can imagine. We tasted cakes at 2 other places and Fluffy Thoughts beat them hands down and the prices are competitive for the area.

I chose fluffy thoughts for my wedding cake. At the tasting I was amazed at the different options I could have. I chose the white chocolate with a milk chocolate ganache and cookies and cream filling and chocolate cake with coffee filling. It was delicious! I met with them and they were able to create a beautiful cake.

We used Fluffy Thoughts for our wedding cake and were very pleased with the result! I am not someone who likes things that are very sweet, so choosing the cake was probably one of the hardest things for me. At our tasting, my (now) husband and I were initially a bit overwhelmed by all of the options we could choose from, but Lara offered many suggestions on flavor combinations, which was very helpful. Since we had an autumn wedding, we wanted to choose a flavor that was indicative of the season. We wound up choosing two flavors: pumpkin spice cake with coffee buttercream for the display cake and hazelnut cake with alternating layers of dark chocolate ganache, coffee buttercream, and hazelnut buttercream for the supplemental sheet cake. Both were phenomenal! Everyone enjoyed our cakes and thought our flavor combinations were very unique choices for a wedding cake. The display cake was simply gorgeous! We preferred a simpler design, so we opted for a 3-tiered twisted square ivory cake with a large chocolate branch lying diagonally across the front. To give it a pop of color, we had a small cluster of fresh flowers on the top and one flower on each tier. The flowers were provided by our florist but arranged on the cake by Fluffy Thoughts. It turned out even better than we imagined and truly captured the fall look that we were going for! My only “complaint” (and I hesitate to use that word) is that we wound up with a ton of leftover cake. We had 165 guests at our wedding, so we chose a display cake sized to feed 100 people and supplemented it with a sheet cake sized to feed 75 people. Everyone was served a large piece of cake at the reception and extra pieces were put out on a table for people to have more. Even so, at the end of the night, we wound up taking home the top layer of the display cake along with the entire sheet cake that was never even cut. In hindsight, we would’ve ordered much less cake. The leftovers were delicious, but I would’ve rather saved the extra expense. The entire staff was very friendly and easy to work with. I would absolutely recommend Fluffy Thoughts to any bride!

Lara and her team are just fabulous. Delicious cakes, responsive, and professional. Lara was willing to consult with me twice to discuss the design of my cake and was happy to make any changes I requested. The whole Fluffy Thoughts staff are wonderful, happy people who clearly love their work. They'll make your vision a reality and the cakes taste amazing!

An awesome tasting wedding cake was a top priority for us. We also wanted a unique looking cake that fit our fall theme. We loved working with Fluffy Thoughts. They are all-around professional from preparing for the initial consultation by gathering your likes and dislikes to coming up with various flavor combination and design ideas during the hour-long tasting. At the consultation, they "had us!" We chose a pumpkin cake with a cinnamon cream cheese frosting and homemade salted caramel as well as red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, dark chocolate ganache and raspberry jam. The cake looked like "fall fireworks" which made it one of the hits of wedding. Plus, it tasted amazing. Even some of our wedding guests said that this cake was THE BEST they had ever had (and they have been to a A LOT of weddings!). Fluffy Thoughts, including Lara and Gwen, is creative, responsive via phone and email, listens to its customers and enjoy making brides happy.....And groom's too. ***We also worked with Fluffy Thoughts to create a surprise grooms cake for the rehearsal dinner. The theme - Burn Notice. They were extremely detailed and delivered a one-of-a-kind cake with so many items on it associated with the TV show. They even incorporated photos of the bride and groom along with two sugar people - Michael and Fiona, the main characters. It was absolutely perfect!! I really feel like this bakery works hard to earn your business and turn out great products.You can't go wrong with Fluffy Thoughts. Their cupcakes are good, too!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE FLUFFY THOUGHTS! Fluffy Thoughts made the most AMAZING cake I have ever seen for my wedding rehearsal dinner - a triceratops groom's cake complete with pirate patch and peg for my husband (to honor his lifelong love of dinosaurs and pirates)! Words can't describe how lifelike, detailed, and cool this cake looked. Suffice it to say that the triceratops looked like it was going to walk right off the sand display table, and truly belonged in a museum. The guests crowded around the groom’s cake and oohed and awwed, clicking photo after photo of it. But best of all, the huge smile that came on my husband's face when he saw this surprise was priceless! I am so grateful to Fluffy Thoughts for helping me to make my husband feel appreciated and happy! I also want to note that this was a HUGE cake. It seemed about two feet in length and quite tall. My dad picked it up in DC and drove it 3 hours to Charlottesville, VA. Even though it was so big, and with horns sticking out and everything, it stayed 100% intact through the whole journey.Finally, I got super cool Samoa and Candy Bar Crunch cupcakes from Fluffy Thoughts for my bridal shower. I plan on going back soon - so I can try the Cannoli, Candy Cane, and Pina Colada flavors, among others! Thanks Fluffy Thoughts!

Lara Stuckey and Fluffy Thoughts Cakes were absolutely amazing. They did our grooms cake, wedding cake and cupcakes. Everything not only looked incredible but tasted incredible as well. Our Notre Dame grooms cake was the most bada** cake I have ever seen. The foot tall leprechaun was detailed and right on point. It was also edible and tasted great. Lara and her staff were very attentive and easily accessible when needed. They helped toss ideas back and forth and found ways to work within our budget. I highly recommend Fluffy Thoughts and can't wait to work with them again.I definitely recommend them

I ordered the Groom's cake from Fluffy Thoughts, and the wedding cupcakes. The tasting they provided was great! They let you taste up to 6 different fillings and 6 cakes, and they were all DELICIOUS. They offered a lot of unique cakes as well, such as red velvet and pumpkin. I wanted Van Halen's guitar for the Groom's cake and was absolutely FLOORED when they delivered it. I mean this cake was a work of art. I was not expecting it to be so detailed - my husband was amazed. He was so surprised and honestly I think it was his favorite part of the wedding. The cupcakes were also lovely. They looked perfect and tasted great. The only thing left at the end of the night, was a small slice of the guitar cake and 1 cupcake - everything was eaten. It goes to show that the flavors were well-received. I 110% recommend Fluffy Thoughts!

I want to thank Fluffy Thoughts so much for making my wedding a success.  The cake was absolutely delicious and totally breathtaking. After looking at several vendors, it all became clear on who I was going to choose when I came to Fluffy Thoughts.  My mom and I were so impressed with your professionalism and expertise in wedding cakes. Every cake we tasted was truly delicious- especially the Red Velvet and Pumpkin! Words cannot describe the level of comfort I had in your ability to design, make and deliver my cake in a timely manner on 10/01/11. I never once worried about my cake because I knew that you and your wonderful team were going to ensure that everything was perfect. Again, thank you for making one of the most important days of my life so special and memorable. I wish you great success and longevity for your business. You are so sweet and Fluffy Thoughts is the best business in town :-)All the best, Brittany Lane (Formerly "Brittany Baker")

I worked with Lara Stuckey and her staff for my grooms cake and wedding cake. I wanted the grooms cake to be a replica of a bottle of Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. The cake was spot on and I couldn't have been happier! Everyone (especially the groom) loved it! Our wedding cake was better than we could have ever expected and all of our guests loved the flavors of it. I have already recommended Fluffy Thoughts Bakery to other people and will continue to do so!
