My name is Melissa, and I am the Events Manager at Golden Sands in Ocean City, MD. One of my April brides booked her cake with this cafe and it was my first time getting to experience this vendor. I had never heard of them until now, but the way my couple talked about them and the great experience they had, definitely caught my attention. The cake was beautiful, the woman who delivered it to my venue was so helpful and told me not to worry about a thing while I was helping our bride, that she would take care of setting it up and everything. Everyone at the wedding was raving about how amazing it tasted and that's very rare that you get a cake as beautiful as this one, that tastes as it looks!

There is art in the walls, cute nooks to sit and eat, and the desserts were yummy..we had the lemon chess pie (tastes like key lime, but is a softer creamer texture with coconut. We also had the funfwtti brown, which was moist and tasty. It also rather large--think two brownies in one. We also had the strawberrycello cake. It was a combo of most pondcake and strawberry pieces. Also tasty. The only cons are that they ran out of cinnamon rolls on cinnamon Saturday, and they didn't seem to know which of the items were vegan even though they were advertised on their cute board. If in the area, we would...
