"I loved all the cakes I've gotten from Lynn..."

I have used Lynn for both my wedding cake and my mother s 75th birthday cake. Both times she outdid what I expected. I was married in October, during the weekend of the snowstorm in PA. We had the reception planned in the country. The hall was on the top of the mountain. We got there but most of the guests did not. I didn t think there was any way Lynn could get her van up that mountain, and I was right. She didn t even try. Instead she arrived in a blue Ford Raptor. We had more cake than guests but no left over cake after the reception. Lynn just delivered a beautiful 2 tiered cake for my mother s birthday party. It was as beautiful and delicious as the one in October. She hit the ball out of the park both times. I ll be going back for every cake I need.

"Ruined the Party!"

I ordered a three layer cake way in advance. I met with Crystal and went over every detail for my daughter's 16th birthday. I was very excited and Crystal acted as though it was not an especially difficult design. The day of my daughter's party I received a call from Crystal 20 minutes before she was to deliver the cake. She said she was having problems with my cake and a wedding cake because of humidity and asked if we could meet her half way between our house and hers to pick up the cake so that she could complete the wedding cake on time. Reluctantly, I asked my husband to meet her to get the cake. When he returned home, he said that I could have done a better job myself. The cake was to have been a different fondant color on each layer. They were all the same rippled mess. There were to have been fondant stripes and polka dots on the cake -- she just painted them on, and it was a rather sloppy job. The cake was leaning to one side. The fondant flowers that were to have been on the cake were plastic (she later told me that she had two beautiful flowers made, but that her daughter had knocked them down and broken them). The special features that I had requested on the cake were non-existent. I specifically said "no white icing" and it was piped all over the cake. As far as I was concerned, it was a hot mess. AND, she blamed it on the humidity. My daughter was very disappointed in the cake as well. When I called her and requested a refund, she told me that she thought the cake looked good. Honestly, it looked nothing like any of the cakes on her website. I received a $100 refund.

"My wedding cake was to die for!!"

I felt very comfortable with the consultation so I decided to go with Lynn for my wedding cake. Iordered a 3 tier cake with 3 different flavors. I felt no pressure when we talked about designs and she listened to what I wanted. She gave us a discount because my fiance was active in the military (This is not on her website). The day of the wedding I got a text from her. I thought there may have been a problem but the text was a picture of the finished cake. It was beautiful and exactly what I wanted. I also appreciated the picture because it took some stress off of me that day. The cake arrived as pictured, and tasted better than it looked. I'd order from her again in a heartbeat!!!

"Completely dropped the ball, horrible experience"

I found Crystals Custom Cakes online and contacted her about a cake for my fiancees surprise 40th birthday party. We spoke at length on email and over the phone about what I wanted and she was confident she could do it. A couple of weeks before the party she stopped returning my phone calls and emails. Luckily I contacted PA Bakery in Camp Hill and explained what happened. It was short notice but they made my Gorilla cake, it looked and tasted awesome and they made it twice as big for the same money Crystal was going to charge. Thank god for them or the party would have been ruined. I've planned several events in my life and never had somebody just drop the ball like that, no phone call, no reason, no communication, no explaination. Inexcusable.

"Really AWSOME Job!!!!"

Our wedding cake turned out fantastic!! It tasted as good as it looked and it looked beautiful. She even got the colors right from the swatches I gave her. The only potential issue was that she was a bit late but that was due to another customer taking up more time than she was supposed to. Lynn got the cake to our hall in plenty of time and sent me pictures of it so that I knew what it looked like before I came in. I can't thank her enough!

Vendor response: I'm glad you liked your cake so much! It happens sometimes where a customer doesn't pick up their cake on time which has me running late, this is why I set up delivery at least 1 hour before an event so I do have that extra time just in case. Thank you for your business, I look forward to working with you again! Lynn
