Our guests had nothing but compliments for the creativity and execution of the cake design as well as the delicious flavor of the white chocolate cake with strawberry filling and the chocolate cake with the chocolate mousse filling. We continue to be customers of the Bean Counter and are never disappointed! Thank you so much for being a part of our special day."

I’m glad I had the chance to work with you. I have been a Bean Counter customer for many years and I had seen your work with brides/and families on cakes. I wondered if I was going to ask for a cake design for my special occasion, and it happened!"

"When we look back on our wedding day, family and friends still talk about our wedding cake. Our pumpkin brown butter cake with caramel Swiss meringue and fresh caramel sauce was the best cake I have ever had…and that is coming from a pumpkin fanatic.
You made the cake process so delightful from meeting with you in person during our tasting, to making my dream cake a reality…almost too good looking to eat!
We can’t thank you enough for all the love that went into making this cake. We certainly know where to travel for all our future cakes. Thank you for the best cake experience and the most delicious and beautiful cake."
All the best,

"The birthday cake you created for my Mom’s 80th birthday was truly special, such a beautiful cake! My Mom just loved it, we all did. The sugar flowers were stunning, we were able to remove them safely and have saved them as small bouquet. (not in the refrigerator) I appreciate all your communication with me throughout my order. I wanted to be sure to let you know how much we enjoyed the cake. Everyone asked where we ordered the cake so I was happy to promote the Bean Counter. We will return."
Thank you!
All the best,
-Sharon
"The kids’ cakes came out so amazing! The vegan cake was so beautiful it was just like what I had envisioned in my head, I feel like with food allergies a lot of the time you have to sacrifice pretty things, but definitely not in this case. The Halloween cake was so detailed I just absolutely loved how it came out, and most importantly my son loved it. You guys totally knocked it out of the park! I could not have been more pleased, thank you so so much."
-Kara
"Just wanted to THANK YOU for the beautiful birthday cake you made for my Grandson. He LOVED it and the baker did a fabulous job with the Paw Patrol characters they looked great. As usual the cake was delicious and everyone just loved it."
Thanks again

"Thank you so much for the absolutely beautiful shower cake. It was so perfect!!! Everyone raved about how precious it was and asked where we'd gotten it from. And even more importantly than it being the most adorable thing I've ever seen with a remarkable level of artistic detail and design, the cake was delicious. It was extremely light and fluffy with a perfect amount of sweetness - loved it! Will definitely be ordering future cakes from your bakery :) Thank you so much for everything!"
-Bethany
"Just a quick note to say that the chocolate ganache "drummer" cake you made for Alex and Hayley's rehearsal dinner was a HUGE success! It looked fabulous and tasted even better---we had people coming up all weekend raving about how good it was! (And my Gluten-free/vegan friends really liked their cake too !). Thanks SO much for making the event extra special and sweet!"

"I knew how amazing The Bean Counter's cakes are, my husband I come in all the time for your cakes.. and that's why I had you make my daughter-in-law's baby shower cake. The shower was yesterday and the cake was beyond AMAZING. You should have heard the praise, the comments and I think I told about 70 women where they can get cakes that great! The Bean Counter! You are amazing. No one beats you. The cake was not only gorgeous, precious and beautiful, but tasty .. ohmygosh, the taste.. especially the Chantilly cream. THANK YOU, THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"
-Denise B.
"I had to write you to tell you how extremely, over the top - happy we all were with the cake!! Never, ever had any of us had such a delicious gluten-free cake. You would never have known that it wasn't made with white flour! It was so moist and so flavorful!! The design of the cake was spectacular!! So gorgeous! You took my vision and brought it to life in such a beautiful way. Our party was at Bocado and even other patrons who walked by commented on our gorgeous cake!! I have some good photos of it that I can send you. Thank you again for all of your help! We will certainly recommend you to friends and family."
-Heather
"We've made it a tradition with my daughters to get their birthday cakes every year only from The Bean Counter. When I placed the order I was pretty vague about how I wanted Ariel on the cake. All I said was as long as Ariel is on the cake do whatever! My daughter actually screamed when she saw this cake! As always, I'm amazed at what a great job you've done! Everyone at the party and on Facebook wanted to know where we got the cake! Thank you so much! My only complaint...I had to unbutton my pants. Delicious!!!!"
-Dineira W.
"I just want you to know that was the most AMAZING cake ever! EVERYONE at the shower LOVED it, and I can honestly tell you that I have Never tasted such a delicious cake in my life!

"Thank you so much for the truly beautiful cake you created for the anniversary party. It was exquisite, and admired by all. Just as noteworthy was how delicious all the different flavors were. I was right to order the additional chocolate cake, as we had only three pieces left—all vanilla! I appreciated working with you, and was delighted with all aspects of the cake. Many thanks."
