Sweet Orange Bakes — Restaurant in West Orange

This is the best cake you will have! I have never been hugely drawn to cake as a dessert option, but after my first taste of Julie’s cakes I became a convert. Being a mom of 2 young girls I find myself being offered lots of cake at birthday parties. After experiencing Julie’s creations, I cannot look at even the most interesting cakes the same way. Her cakes are visually stunning (though not like the showy-but-questionable-tasting cakes of TV bake offs)— delightfully designed and expertly executed.

We will 100% be using this business again in the future for all of our...

Our business, Roll by ADP is all about supporting the small business community and helping them with their payroll needs, so I was definitely looking for a local small bakery to support. I stumbled across Sweet Orange Bakes in a FB community group and reached out to Julie with my vision for our cake along with our logo shape. I leaned on her to suggest what flavors should be used and everything came out perfect! Julie totally nailed our brand color and I do not just speak for myself when I say I was blown away by the design, color, and flavor of the cake. It was a huge hit and the entire team, especially the...
