Candis created the most incredible wedding cake—so beautiful it brought my grandma to tears! The design was stunning, and the flavors were just as amazing. Our guests couldn’t stop raving, and there wasn’t a single slice left, even though we ordered extra. She came highly recommended, and now I absolutely understand why.

This brings tears to my eyes! It was such a pleasure creating such a special cake for you and Grace. You were both such a joy to work with from the first email to delivery. Congratulations you guys!!!

They delivered the cake to our wedding venue without any issues! (I didn't even notice when it was delivered). Everyone at the wedding said it was the best (and most moist) wedding cake they've had! I would absolutely order from them again

Honeybee Cakes is more than just a cake company—it’s a place where memories are crafted. Candis, the artist behind the magic, truly puts her heart and soul into every creation. She doesn’t just make cakes; she carefully considers her clients, their events, and the stories they’re celebrating. Her goal is always to create something as special and unique as the moment itself. For the past four years, I’ve been ordering her incredible Christmas cakes, and they’ve become a cherished staple of our Christmas Eve celebrations. My mother-in-law now reserves a specific space in her fridge for our "Christmas Honeybee Cake." At Thanksgiving, the family eagerly asks, "Did you get the cake? Are you getting the cake? What if we don’t get one this year?" That anticipation and excitement speak volumes about the love and care Candis pours into her work—and the artistry she delivers every single time. Every year, we marvel, "How can she top this?" And every year, she does. But what truly stands out is that, in some small way, Candis has become a part of our celebrations and our family. She hasn’t just created cakes—she’s created a tradition and a moment of connection that we all treasure. This is what makes Honeybee Cakes so special: it’s not "just a cake." Grocery bakeries churn out cakes every day, but Candis takes it to another level. She creates memories, weaving her artistry into the celebrations that matter most to her clients. You won’t be disappointed with her service, and I can promise you’ll fall in love with whatever she designs for you. Candis doesn’t just bake; she makes magical memories.

I knew of Candis’ cakes from Instagram and when I got engaged a friend shared from her Instagram story that she was going to be doing a wedding cake tasting party. I signed up my fiancé (at the time) and myself, for I believe $15/person, when we got there we got to try so many different cakes and she was actively talking to guests and answering questions, and her husband was there helping out as well (we love a supportive husband!!) anyways we ended up deciding to do the vanilla cake and strawberry filling and inquired about the recommended size as we were doing a small intimate ceremony with our parents and spouses and a dinner with all of them after. She recommended the two tier small cake and was asking about how we wanted it to look, I probably looked like an idiot because I didn’t really know that would be a question nor do I really care I just loved the work I saw on her page so I gave her creative freedom. Candis was very responsive and kept checking in to make sure I hadn’t changed my mind about how I wanted the cake to look, I told her my color palette, how Ben and I met (working at Starbucks) and she put together the most amazing cake. She even came and delivered it to the room we were dining in so I got to give her a big hug and admire her work firsthand! I definitely recommend using Candis for your cake needs, she is so talented and kind and a pleasure to work with.

Candis is incredible. The flavors she creates, the cake consistency, the fluffy frosting, the decorations… like it’s unreal. My family was lucky to claim a limited edition Valentine’s Day cake and it was absolutely perfect.

We loved working with Candis from Honeybee Cake Co.! We ordered two semi-naked wedding cakes and they were DELICIOUS. We had a spice cake with cinnamon buttercream and a lemon cake with almond buttercream. These cakes were made with a whole lot of love and expertise. Both cakes were eaten almost entirely and our guests did not stop coming up to say “best wedding cake ever”! In addition, Candis went out of her way to collect floral decorations from our florist to match our centerpieces and bridal bouquet. Those details meant the world to us and the cakes were beautiful! We highly recommend Honeybee Cake Co.!

Candis really outdid herself with our cake! She took a simple inspiration photo and description of what we liked and created a masterpiece. Our semi-naked wedding cake was breathtaking. The floral was integrated perfectly and the custom cake topper was exactly what we had in mind. Being October, we chose all four tiers of spice cake with maple cinnamon buttercream… Seriously, this is likely the best cake we have ever tasted. People were actually hunting extra pieces down at the end of the night and nonstop asking for the flavor combination. We can’t wait to order more cakes from Candis! She is beyond sweet and her work speaks for itself.

I am OBSESSED with Candis and Honeybee Cake Co! I knew right after getting engaged that I wanted a cake from Honeybee, and she absolutely delivered! The cakes are literal works of art, especially the painted floral buttercream, and they also taste amazing. Everyone raved about the cake and was so excited to see there wasn't any fondant! I highly highly highly recommend Honeybee Cake Co!
