Cake recommendations

Hi nor cal ladies!
Does anyone have a cake company they recommend with a budget in mind? I really don't want to spend more than 700 on a cake to feed 100 people. The bids I'm getting are 900 plus delivery.
My venue is so I'm trying to keep other cost more reasonable.
I'm in Marin so probably anyone there or in SF or Petaluma/ Santa Rosa.

  • I am not sure if my baker will go that far, but try to contact her and see if she does. Super nice lady and the cake is heavenly! http://www.cakecreationsbybev.com/

    She is only charging $3 per slice. But fyi, she doesn't do fondant. :)

    Virginia Bakery in Berkeley was amazing.  We got a 3 tier, delicious cake for 125 people and it was about $400.00. We got buttercream, but I'm pretty sure they do fondant also, for an additional price.

    I am also not sure if they will drive to Marin, but it might be worth a shot. 
  • Our baker is charging us $800 for 75 slices -- which seems like a lot, but that includes all delivery and fees, and our cake is big and intricate with fondant and blah blah blah.

    If interested, here's her site:

  • We're going to do cupcakes and save a bundle.... for 80 cupcakes we'll only spend about $200. We're going through cupcake magic out of the yuba-sutter area.

    We really wanted a big beautiful cake, but the price difference is crazy!
