Cakes By Annette — Restaurant in Culpeper

When you go for your tasting don't be fooled by the location. She works out of her kitchen. You are in the right place :). We had an outdoors themed wedding and we wanted the cake to look like wooden logs, tree stumps stacked on top of each other with our initials engraved on the side. When we did the cutting, people were surprised because they didn't even notice that it was 'the cake.' It looked so realistic they thought it was another decoration. Almost all of the cake was consumed by our guests and as most of the other reviews will tell you, the cake was moist and tasty! It looked amazing and tasted great! Home run Annette!

Our cake was three different layers (a 12", 10" and 8") each with it's own icing/cake/filling combination. Annette was extremely responsive with our questions and flexible about the tasting. The tastings are setup where you choose a few icing/cake combinations and then choose filling flavors to try with each icing/cake combination. It was a very pleasant experience. All of the options were so good it was difficult to choose!

We asked to have her setup delivery of the cake to the venue, which was on time and correct. Altogether a...

Absolutely perfect! She made our 6 inch wedding bride and groom cake and all 120 cupcakes just the way we wanted. They were gorgeous!! The color was spot on and the flower petal and rosette design looked elegant. She perfectly paired the flavors which we had the chance to sample at the tasting.

The guest's raved about how amazing the cake was! It was moist with just the right amount of filling. Our lemon cake with raspberry was yummy too! We will definitely use Annette again for cakes in the future whether it's for a birthday, anniversary or party!! Thank you for making our special day everything we...

I found Cakes by Annette on our local Facebook Group. I contacted her via email and received an immediate response. I requested 3 dozen cupcakes and 3 dozen cake pops for my daughter's baby shower. I sent her some pictures of the space theme we were going with and she showed me some pictures of various cupcakes. I settled on the look/flavors of both. She did not disappoint. Both the cupcakes and cake pops received rave reviews from the guests, in both appearance and taste. I had to transport these to the venue about 40 miles from home, but the cupcakes were packed well, 12 to a box using cupcake inserts. The cake pops were in a bag, and held up well. Annette is a pleasure to deal with and her customer service is top notch. I will definitely use her again if I have another...
