OMG! My wedding cake was so beautiful! Everyone at the reception were talking about how good the wedding cake was. We are so please with services and the wedding cake. The cake was the talk on facebook and among family and friends for the whole week! Very moist and delicious! I would recommend Occasional Cakes to everyone! Especially the vanilla butternut!

Mrs. Harrison
Thank you for the beautifully decorated wedding cake and grooms cake you provided for our wedding. The flavors (red velvet, lemon, butter rum, vanilla, and spice) were wonderful. Everyone raved about the flavor and moistness of the cake. You delivered in making a homemade southern quality cake in a professionally decorated package. Thanks for everything!

I fell in love with Occasional Cake’s butter rum cake at Newton White Mansion’s winter bridal show. I visited a few bakers for cake tastings but I couldn’t forget Janice’s butter rum cake. The cake is moist with great flavor. Janice was a delight to work with. She is extremely professional and was very accommodative to my ideas and changes. Days before the wedding I was concerned that I would not have enough cake for all of my guests. Janice proactively helped me develop a solution. The end result was a beautifully decorated wedding cake that was absolutely delicious. My guests loved the cake and there were hardly any slices left at the end of the evening. I strongly recommend Occasional Cakes for an upcoming wedding or event!!

Janice Harrison is the ultimate professional at her craft.
We were very fortunate to have chosen her as our baker for our wedding. We are still receiving rave reviews over how lovely it looked and how scrumptious it tasted.
We were pleased with Ms. Harrison from the start - she knows her business well and aims to please her customer.
We would highly recommend Janice Harrison - Occasional Cakes for any occasion for the BEST tasting cake ever!

Occasional Cakes provided services for both the wedding and groom's cakes. The service was excellent from start to finish!!! Ms. Janice Harrison's design style is modern with a traditional flare. The cakes not only looked beautiful but tasted fantastic!!! If you want a cake that looks straight from the page of a magazine but tastes as if your mom made it then Occasional Cakes is the place for you. We served every guest both the wedding and groom's cakes as each plate was left empty on the table at the end of the night. The groom loved his cake featuring his favorite NFL team (Minnesota Vikings) it was as if he was a child again pointing and smiling directing everyone to "look at my cake". Occasional Cakes service was very professional and Ms. Harrison went the extra mile for our special day by obtaining a gold cake stand to match our wedding decor. Thank You Janice for making our dreams come true!!! We highly recommend Occasional Cakes for your event!!!

Janice was a pleasure to work with. She was very professional, available, and always there to help. The wedding cake was beautiful and tasted great! My only complaint was that the sheet cakes we bought were very dense, which made it difficult to eat an entire piece. Overall, Occasional Cakes is a great business to work with. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a bakery for their wedding.

We used Occasional Cakes for our wedding cake, and it was delicious! We chose a very simple design and decorated with orchids from our florist. The cake was very moist, full of flavor and tasted like a homemade lemon pound cake. I can't wait to taste our anniversary layer - because at the end of the night, the rest of the cake was gone!
I would recommend Occasional Cakes for your wedding cake because Ms. Janice is very professional and her cakes are awesome! What I really liked is that she allowed me to taste several freshly-baked cake flavors during my tasting session. This really helped to sway my decision because I took some home to my then fiance and he fell in love with her cakes on the spot.

The cake was a huge hit. All of my guest kept asking me where I got the cake from and not one piece was left over. I will never get another cake from any other vendor again. Thank you for providing the best wedding cake ever!!!!

I used Occasional Cakes for a retirement reception. I gave very little instruction about what the cake should look like - just basic guidance that I needed a cake that reflected the love we had for an employee that completed over 34 years of service. On the day of the event, I was blown away when I saw the cake. It was prefect and the center piece of the event. I couldn't have asked for more. Everyone who saw the cake wanted to know what bakery we used.

We were very pleased with Occassional Cakes. Our cake was absolutely beautiful!
We were supposed to have filling in our cake and a monogram done in our wedding colors. We were not informed that the monogram could not be done in our color prior to the wedding, therefore, I was surprised to not see it on the cake when we went to cut the cake at the reception. At that time we also discovered that the filling was not done.
However, Occassional Cakes provided us with a complimentary anniversary cake to compensate for the error. I appreciated their responsiveness.
I would definitely recommend this vendor.

Occasional Cakes LLc did a wonderful job on my cake. All I can say is that when my husband and I return from our honeymoon the first thing he said was "WHO HAS THE LEFT OVER CAKE BECAUSE I WANT SOME".

If you're looking for a cake that both looks good and tastes good, you will want to choose Occasional Cakes. Like most brides, I barely had a chance to eat at my wedding and that included getting a real slice of my own wedding cake. My husband and I left for our honeymoon the day after our wedding and the desserts we received while on our cruise vacation couldn't even compare. When we returned home, we were delighted to find some leftover wedding cake awaiting us and quickly indulged ourselves. In addition, the cost in comparison was exceptional. I would highly recommend Occasional Cakes!

It was a pleasure to work with Occasional Cakes. The most important was the attention and responsiveness. Very professional from start to finish. The cake was absolutely delicious and met our custom order to perfection. We were able to receive taste, creative style and professionalism within our budget. I have already received calls and given referrals for Occasional Cakes. Our guests truly enjoyed the cake. Highly recommend!

I was SO happy to find Occasional Cakes! We had gone to a few tastings, but nothing compared to Occasional cakes! We ended up going with Vanilla butternut and Cherry Chocolate Marble (sounds weird, but was DELICIOUS!!). The service was professional and the cake was elegant and delicious! A great deal for the price! You will not be disappointed!!!

Occasional Cakes has the best moist cakes. I was able to sample over 10 different cakes during my taste testing. I gave them an idea of what I wanted on my cake and they put it together and it was more than what I was expecting. I just loved my double heart cake and it fit right in with my double heart theme. The cake was delivered on time as well.

The cake was delicious and moist. The decoration was to die for. Everyone thought I paid big money for the cake. Janice was very professional and flexable. I had changed the cake design about 4 different times. She was very understanding and made very helpful suggestion. I would highly recommend to anyone.
