Sugar & Spice Confections

Oh yes! Let me be the first to write a review! So I ended up planning a last minute birthday party for my soon to be 1 year old at my parents’ place in Kansas City. I live in Maryland so it wasn’t the easiest party to plan. The one thing i REALLY wanted was a particular Sesame Street cake. I found a new team starting out in Kansas City on Craigslist and had my sister in law meet with them for a tasting. Everything was set with them. Well, less than a week before the Bday — THEY CANCELED!!!
My entire party décor and theme was tied to this cake and now I have less than a week to find someone else! From my iphone, I googled cake makers in KC in a pathetic last minute attempt and sugar and spice was the first link that came up. I left a message on Melissa’s phone assuming she’d call me back and laugh at me. Who can make a specialty cake in the middle of JUNE (wedding season!) with 5 days notice for a fair price?!
Well, Melissa can! Fortunately she had a last minute cancellation and was able to squeeze me in. So without a cake testing — I had no option but to trust her. I’m SO glad I did. The cake was beautiful AND tasted great! I had three tiers: spice cake with buttercream, godiva chocolate cake with oreo cream filling, and sour cream almond cake with raspberry filling. All three were so so so good. She even hand delivered the cake.
I’m so grateful I made that last desperate attempt! I’m even glad the original bakers canceled on me! Thanks Melissa!
