Classic Cakes

I have known Andrea from Classic Cakes for nearly eight years. I've taken baking classes from her, been to tastings and events at her amazing cake shop, and had friends use her for their weddings, all with rave reviews. In every single instance she has been exceedingly professional. I have had a dozen opportunities to taste and view her work. Absolutely amazing! Not only are her cakes and other products gorgeous, they are full flavor, moist and decadent. She uses high quality ingredients, not the hydrogenated oils of other generic commercial bakers. I highly recommend Andrea from Classic Cakes. More...

Andrea made our wedding cakes nearly five years ago, and five years later we still get compliments on them! In fact, my mom and I still dream (and talk! ) about the many fall flavors she created - making my spice cake dreams come true - from pumpkin to hummingbird. Our guests raved! The detail on the design also exceeded my expectations. I still remember on the day of how I gasped when I saw our cakes! On top of that, Andrea is just a wonderful person and a gem to work with. We attended a cupcake class by Andrea a few years ago, too, and it was so fun. Thank you, Andrea!!! More...

As an 11 event planner/coordinator, I was elated when I found Classic Cakes. One of the few bakeries that limits the number of cakes they do on a weekend so that it's fresh and flavorful, not frozen! I had the pleasure of working with them for several weddings and events and highly recommend! More...

I highly recommend Andrea with Classic Cakes. She has been on our Preferred Vendors list (I own Buffalo Lodge) for the past 3 years, and my clients consistently hire her and have great feedback on her quality and professionalism. Easy to work with and takes her role as "cake artist" very seriously. More...

The designs are detailed and customized and the flavors are amazing. I can't eat cake anywhere else (others taste like chemicals to me now). I've used Classic Cakes for my event yearly and always received a ton of compliments. Andrea you're the best! More...

"The best tasting cake in the world". I had a wonderful Applesauce Cream Cheese Cake for my baby shower. It was so pretty it was hard to cut it open. People tried to take the cake from me because it was that good. I really ate this cake until the day I had my baby. More...

Andrea at Classic Cakes provided us the most perfect cakes for our wedding. She is a true artist in terms of visual beauty and amazing baking skills! We had four small cakes and one two tiered cake that all looked gorgeous. She was so helpful and understanding as I had about one thousand different ideas for how I wanted each of the single cakes to look. Andrea delivered gorgeous cakes in six flavors. Our guests absolutely loved the cake. We had 105ish guests and had about 114 servings ordered. We only went home with a few servings! We had Sugar Cookie, Grand Marnier, Blueberry Limoncello, Red Velvet My Way, Mexican Hot Chocolate, and Carrot. We loved our cakes so much we wanted to showcase them with some beautiful hand written acrylic signs from our decor vendor to identify each cake.

Andrea was wonderful to work with and the cakes arrived looking gorgeous on stands that we had borrowed from her. I can't wait for our one year anniversary so that we can get another cake from her! More...

We went in for a tasting, for our wedding cake, and we were sold right away. Andrea's cakes are so delicious!! She helped us design the perfect cake and was so helpful along the way!
On the big day, she arrived early with the cake and we were amazed! It was absolutely stunning and everything we wanted! We had a hard time waiting until we got to cut the cake. That first bite was just as delicious as the tasting, our guests thought so too! We are still hearing compliments about our yummy cake! More...

Andrea is soo talented! My husband and I went on an amazing tasting, and fell in love with all of the different flavors we could incorporate into our wedding cake. She sketched a beautiful design of what our cake would look like, and there was not one piece left at our reception! Our guested raved about the flavors. We are thrilled that we chose Classic Cakes. Thank you Andrea!! More...

I'm not a huge fan of frosting and really wanted a naked cake. A few other vendors I talked with discouraged the idea, but Andrea was all in. I loved the fact that we got to have multiple (delicious) flavors and the naked cake design turned out even better than I could have imagined. The cake was absolutely gorgeous and almost too pretty to eat. Loved the berries Andrea used to accent the design with as well! More...

Working with Andrea was a joy. She truly loves what she does and that passion results in delicious and beautiful cakes. If you are wanting more than just your average wedding cake, choose Classic Cakes. She made my vision of a cake come true, and was so flexible with what we wanted. Gourmet favors and total elegance all around. More...

Classic Cakes made my wedding cake and it was absolutely amazing!  Each tier was a different flavor and all flavoring is natural. There was no extra cost for designing the cake the way we wanted it.  Everyone at the wedding commented first on how great the cake looked and then on how great it tasted!  Even the hotel commented that they had never seen a cake that looked that good.  They were amazed to find out that it was buttercream frosting and not fondant. Andrea was amazing to work with throughout the process! More...

Words cannot express how great my wedding cake was. Not only was it beautiful, but the flavors were amazing as well. People are still talking about my cake and my wedding was 3 months ago!

Andrea did our wedding cake for our wedding on 11/2/13, and it was absolutely perfect! We received so many compliments not only on how beautiful it was but also how great it tasted. The applesauce, red velvet, and fleur de sel were our guests' favorites. Andrea was extremely professional, and it is obvious how passionate she is about her work when you meet with her for your consultation. She was a little more pricey than some of the other cake vendors that we looked into, but it was worth every penny. Her designs are gorgeous, and she offers a wide range of flavors which allows you to truly customize your cake any way you want. This is her full time business instead of a hobby on the side, which shows in the quality of her work. She was impressive in every way, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding cake vendor in the KC metro area. More...

Andrea makes everything from scratch using high quality ingredients and you can tell - the cake was delicious. She offers so many great flavors and gluten free options as well. We chose White Chocolate Raspberry Chambord, Salted Caramel, Hummingbird, Sugar Cookie and gluten free Chocolate. She was able to re-create the lace pattern from my dress onto part of the cake and it turned out beautifully. Thanks Andrea! More...

Classic Cakes did an absolutely amazing job on our wedding cake! Andrea took the lace pattern from my dress and made that the design on the cake. ..impressive! And it looked amazing! It was one of the most beautiful cakes I have ever seen and was everything I had ever dreamt of. And not only was the cake BEAUTIFUL but it was one of the most delicious cakes as well!! People have told me WEEKS after the wedding how they STILL want another piece....and so do I! Her flavors are unique, delicious and vibrant! I was so happy to be able to offer my guest something a little different than just traditional wedding flavors! I would HIGHLY recommend Classic Cakes to ANY bride/groom! They were amazing!!!

Andrea is a true artist! Her cakes are amazing in every way! She helped me surprise my groom with his favorite cake as one of our layers- German chocolate. When he sliced into it and found it was his favorite he said " you really do love me!". Sublime! By the way- everyone loved the German chocolate so much it was the first to go! More...

After sampling some cakes from the more traditional bakers in town, we were overjoyed to discover Classic Cakes. Andrea has a delicate touch with organic flavors, and her cake creations are delicious, not heavy and over-iced. We had a hard time selecting cake flavors; they are all amazing. She also was able to take our hand-sketched design and turn it into a beautiful complement to our wedding theme. Our cake was lovely and delicious. Only complaint: she does not cut her own cakes, and our caterer had to fumble through dismantling the cake and cutting it. Ask her to instruct your caterer when she delivers the cake! Otherwise, a great wedding cake vendor! More...

The only issue we had with Andrea and Classic Cakes is that everyone LOVED the specialty flavors that we picked out SO MUCH. ..the cake was gone before we got any! (Other than our first cutting of the cake, of course!)

She gave us lots of tasty choices that made our cake stand out for our guests, and she did a fantastic job in answering the questions we never knew we had about wedding cake planning. She's the best! More...

Andrea at Classic Cakes was AMAZING!!! She is a reliable person with a kind and caring personality. She has a variety of unique and delicious cake and icing flavors to choose from. Andrea made our wedding cake and my husband’s groom cake, which were exactly what I envisioned. Classic Cakes I found to be reasonably priced compared to other vendors, especially taking into consideration how much more delicious Andrea’s flavors were compared to the others. A year later the guests at our wedding are still talking about how wonderful our cake tasted! :) My husband and I loved our cake so much we decided to have an anniversary cake made for our 1 year anniversary!

Stunning to look at and delicious to eat! Can’t get better than that! Andrea did a fabulous job at making the cake of my dreams! She matched the swirls on the cake to our wedding invitations; the detailing on the cake was exquisite!! The cake was moist and flavorful, and the buttercream . . mmmmm SO GOOD!! Andrea is very talented, professional and sweet and I would certainly go with her again! The only hiccup with the cake was that when she arrived with it she placed the cake topper to the side and not on top of the cake. I’m not really sure why she didn’t place the cake topper on top when she set up the cake, or why she didn’t leave instructions on how to properly place it on. After she left the wedding venue attempted to place the cake topper on, but did it incorrectly, and it tumbled down the back and shattered on the floor! It just so happened that we had brought a cute little novelty cake topper . . . the one with the bride straddling the groom. We were going to put on a cupcake in the background, but it ended up front and center on the main wedding cake . . . . Unexpectedly it has made a cute little story for our wedding. More...

Andrea was the most professional cake artist we met with. She knows the science of cake-making probably better than the back of her hand, and she has a back-up plan for every situation.

Beautiful AND Delicious! Our wedding was so incredible... Andrea of Classic Cakes made us a 5 tier cake with the design that was exactly what we wanted. I had the caterers save me and my husband two large slices of each flavor so we could be sure to taste each delicious cake. I’m so glad we did because we didn’t have any cake left over… AT ALL! Everyone LOVED it! I had so many guests say it was the most gorgeous AND most delicious cake they’d ever had. I have to agree with them! Everything was absolutely perfect! Just perfect! Andrea, Thank you so much for all your hard work! I couldn't have asked for a better cake vendor! More...

Our cake was AMAZING! Andrea worked with our florist to match up the flowers from the ceremony and the centerpieces. But that's not what's so amazing--it's the flavor and texture of her cakes. It had an amazing dense texture with yummy smooth butter cream icing. Each layer was a different flavor and Andrea uses only the finest ingredients, which was a huge selling point. We ate some of the left over cake for nearly two weeks and it was still as dense and moist as it was the first day keeping it in the refrigerator. YUM! Highly recommend Classic cakes. More...

We are obsessed with cupcakes and have tasted "famous" cupcakes in tons of different cities, and I can assure you that you will NEVER taste a better cupcake than the ones by Andrea. Go do a tasting, and the decision will be made for you. Everyone at my wedding RAVED about our cupcakes. Definitely try the Snickerdoodle cupcake. It tastes just like a snickerdoodle cookie! We also had Strawberry Shortcake, Mexican Hot Chocolate, Carrot Cake, and Chocolate Malt flavors. I will say that her cakes are more expensive than most but that is because she not only uses the best ingredients (all gluten free, organic, etc) and she bakes from scratch. She pays for the best ingredients and it is totally worth it. She also does baking classes at A Thyme for Everything in Lee's Summit. I'm going in December to learn how to make her Snickerdoodle cake. More...

We met with another wedding cake baker that was recommended by our planner. Although good, neither one of us could justify paying almost 1000. 00 for a wedding cake for 130 people. It wasn't exraordinary- and lets face it- it's cake! We met with Andrea, who had us sample almost 20 different fabulous flavors. Our first baker offered 4, the basics. We loved that Andrea was a scratch baker and that she was open to making anything we could imagine. We figured she would be very expensive and were thrilled that a 4 tier cake to serve our 130 guests was more that 50% less than out first baker- we spent less than $500. The cake was DIVINE! We had chocolate malt w/ choclate hazelnut filling; orange cream poppyseed with chocolate ganache; strawberry shortcake; and almond w/ almond cream filling. Everyone raved about the cake. It was beautiful, elegant, and most importantly, tasty:) More...
