Hi ladies,

I'm looking for some wedding cake recommendations. We're doing it VERY cheap. So, I think I'm looking more along the lines of someone who is good but does it on the side.

Any recommendations?

    you can get really delicious sheet cakes at costco for under $20 then have a small one to cut for the front of house...if you just want to do a round cake on a pedestal for the front of house you could get something from Kroger probably in the $20 range

    Try Bonomini Bakery in Northside.  They charge per cake, not per slice and they will make you a pre-scored sheet cake for the back.  I have their price sheet.  PM me if you want me to send it to you.

    I am going to second this - and the staff is very friendly and willing to help. I did a tasting there - but we decided to go elsewhere because they don't do the complex fondant work we needed for our Mario-inspired cake..

    but otherwise - we totally would have went with them.

    I am going with Royal Icing by Jillie...She is in the Franklin/Middletown area. I went through 3 cake tastings before we found her and her fondant is to die for! We had gotten prices of up to $500..she is only charging $300 for a 4 tiered cake to feed 114. Let me know if you would like her #

    <div>I second Trix and Treats sweets.  We did a small cake for us and cupcakes for our guests (125 people) for $150.  Everything was absolutely beautiful.  I think you can look her up on Facebook if you want to see pictures. </div>

    Piece of Cake on Glenway Ave in Cincinnati. They're SO affordable (we're spending less than $200 on a cake for 140). Its a small mom & pop bakery and they do AMAZING work. TONS of incredible flavors. If you look on their website all of their pics are pretty dated but if you bring him a picture of what you want he can do ANYTHING, they're just not very tech savvy so thats why their pics and website are a little outdated. :)
