Psst: Her prices are also super reasonable!
The cake layers were a play on the classic sticky toffee pudding -- but with a welcome, spongy lightness to cut the deep notes of dark caramel and molasses. The flavor was warm, almost nutty, and just slightly spiced, and the texture was fork tender and moist -- without the over-indulgent stickiness or heavy density that sticky toffee sometimes creates. The vanilla buttercream was such a welcome addition, its fatty creaminess providing the perfect textural foil to the sponge and an ideal flavor contrast to the toffee's warm richness.
Everyone in our group went back for seconds and thirds. My only sadness is that I had to leave half the cake behind for the birthday boy!
Martha's cakes ahead of the cakes available on Mill Rd. And with lovely, attentive service, to boot: Martha was ultra responsive via email and text, readily offering suggestions and sharing detailed cake descriptions. She truly cares about her creations, and ensuring her customers have the best treats possible for their special days.
I would highly recommend to anyone looking for cakes for a large event!
(Annoyingly I forgot to take a photo of the cupcakes.)
