If I had a dollar for every time some said "this is the best wedding cake I've ever had" ... I'd be rich! Seriously, hands down the best cake. Not only was the taste amazing, the details, and the professionalism and service Millie provided. She is very sweet and makes you feel like you can go to her whenever needed. As a bride, I really appreciated her willingness to do whatever it took to make my wedding day extra special and extra stress-free! :) THANK YOU, MILLIE!!!

I sampled cake at several places in the DFW area. None of them gave the 'wow' factor that Millie's cakes did. My husband and I were so impressed! She specializes in quality vs. quantity of flavors, icings, etc. If you want AWESOME cake that is beautifully decorated- this is the place! Some cake shops have too many choices so they didn't put effort in to making any of the cakes TASTE GOOD! I gave her a picture of what I wanted her to create, and it turned out even more beautifully than I imagined! Guests raved about how yummy the cake was- definitely not your average wedding cake that a lot of guests come to expect. The groom's cake was delicious as well and looked great! She was prompt for our meeting and with delivery. She even had us cake to enjoy the night of the wedding with strawberries, etc. which was a nice touch when we got back to the room.... :) Fair pricing as well. Couldn't recommend her more highly for this special time in your life! I'll definitely be contacting Mille on our anniversary for some more of our yummy cake- Our freezer died recently and we lost our 'couple's cake'. Looking forward to eating it again!

I'll admit, I was nervous about talking with a baker about what I wanted for the wedding cake - I had it all planned out in my head, and I hoped that they could follow my plan to a T. From the moment I walked in, I felt compleetly at ease with Millie, and talking with her was like chatting with an old friend. She showed me some of her past work to see if there was something I liked, and I completely fell in love with one of the cakes she had done. It was just too beautiful to pass up! She asked if I had found a florist yet, and I hadn't, and she said just to keep in touch with her so that she could decorate the cake with real flowers. She gave me some incredibly delicious samples, and we chatted for a long while about life, love, and cake. It was just wonderful! You know how people say the week leading up to the wedding is the craziest? Well, it is, and I forgot to keep in touch with Millie about the flowers and the cake topper. As it turns out, my mom did the flowers for the reception, and we sent some of those flowers along with the cake toppers over to Millie the day before the wedding. I felt so awful for holding out on her, but I hoped she had time to use some of the flowers or at least just the toppers. The next day, walking into the reception with my husband and seeing that cake was one of the best moments of the day. I was in awe of how beautiful that cake looked! Millie had arranged the flowers just so, and the toppers were absolutely perfect. I wanted to hug it, and then devour it. When it was time to cut the cake, I couldn't wait! The flavors were just amazing, and I wish I had more time to eat it. Thank goodness Millie had a box set up for us to take the top layer in at the end of the day. In short, Millie is a fabulous and wonderfully talented woman. She makes you feel like you're her own daughter, that she would do anything to make your day special. It's people like her that made my wedding day so beautiful. I cannot thank her enough! - Elated

I didnt eat any cake except the cake taste with my husband and I but everyone told me the cake was delicious.. I would recommend Millie to everyone. And she is VERY resonably priced..

Millie was so wonderful and professional. Our wedding and grooms cake was so beautiful and delicious, all of our guests wanted to know where we purchased them from. Such a great experience working with Millie at Takes the Cakes!

Millie was wonderful to work with. Her cakes are beautiful, and they are very good. We sent her a picture of my husbands airplane, and she did an amazing job replicating it for the groom's cake.

There is so much that I could say about Millie and her cakes but you really should just go see for yourself. I told her my theme and some of my favorite things and she ran with it. I even through her a last minuet curve ball and she pulled it off flawlessly. Millie is one very tallented proffesional and she will take excellent care of both you and your groom.

We chose Takes the Cakes by Millie because we tasted her cake at a Fairy Tale Manor open house and it was incredible. Her cakes are very reasonably priced and our cake turned out beautiful. Millie was a pleasure to work with and even worked with our venue to coordinate delivery. We were very very happy with our wedding cake!

Really great flavor and service at an excellent price. Nancy uses real butter - not lard - which is important for flavor. Our cake was gobbled up even though we almost had 2 slices per person. Nancy was very careful too, that everything worked out well and was co-ordinated in advance. I am a very tough reviewer and Nancy was my best vendor. The only thing I could have done better was discuss the design more and not worry about flavor - with Nancy the flavor is slam dunk.

Millie was the absolute best vendor to deal with...so helpful and really knew the vision my daughter had for her wedding cake. She also did the cake for the shower and it was absolutely spectacular! Can't say enough about how wonderful she is!

Millie met with us at length to set up our order for both cakes. She is very professional and talented. She helped us select our sizes and had a tasting to determine what kind of icing and fillings we liked best. When we saw our cakes of course we were thrilled. They were beautiful and delicious too!I might also mention that she doesn't skimp to make sure she has enough cake, there is plenty for everyone to enjoy! The prices were so reasonable and that was for 150 people.

I honestly wasn't too concerned about my wedding cake before I started looking. My husband nor myself are big cake eaters so we truly weren't too worried about it. But when I met with Millie all that changed. She created a spectacular cake for us that was not only delicious but more amazing than any cake I've seen. It was one of the things I was most excited about when the day cake. Thank you Millie!!!

Millie's cakes are absolutely stunning. I told her what I had in mind but when I saw my cake it was more than I imagined. Did I mention how delicious it was? The price made it even more spectacular!

I would highly recommend Millie at Takes the Cakes!! Not only is she wonderful to work with and very professional, but her cakes are OUTSTANDING!! One of my bridesmaids was getting married the weekend after me. After tasting my bridal cake, she was thinking that she should have had a different baker for her own because the taste was just to die for!! I definately would recommend her services to anyone! We will be utilizing her for cakes in the years to come!! Thanks Millie!! :)

Both the wedding cake and the groom's cake were absolutely delicious and decorated beautifully! The guests raved about the flavors with most saying it was the best wedding cake they had ever tasted. Millie was wonderful to work with, we'll definitely recommend her, and we've found a great baker for future cakes!

What can we say, we tasted a lot of cake. Millie and her husband had not only some of the best tasting cake, they also had a winning attitude when we met them. When we interviewed them we did not feel like just another customer, we felt like they were going to take good care of us. Both cakes were delivered exactly as ordered and tasted wonderful. The custom groom's cake was a hit, and I might add a bit of a trick to make ... but it was awesome. Millie handled all the dealings with the florist and worked seamlessly with her to get the cake topper just right. We would highly recommend. The price was also right!
