Frosted By Darla Jacksonville

Darla was such a sweetheart! I called her the day before my husband's birthday, knowing it was last minute, but she was more than willing to help assist in making a cake for us with no issue. I really appreciated that. We shot ideas back and forth and came up with an amazing cake: chocolate ganache with a raspberry cream filling. She asked my husband's favorite color, which is purple, and was able to utilize that in the frosting and decorations. The result was a very classy and very tasty treat. He absolutely loved it! It was so fluffy and moist, and the frosting was so rich and creamy. We will definitely be back- thanks so much, Darla! :)

A Yelp rabbit hole lead me to this adorable little bakery, that is actually right by my house and has been for about six years, according to the incredibly sweet (pun intended) and friendly owner. I'm both glad and mad at myself for finding this place. When she sells cake by the slices, I'm going to have to find a whole new level of will power to not go up there on all of my days off. And not just cakes by the slices, but she has cookie sandwhiches, cake pops, mini cheesecakes, brownies, rice krispies and more. I was so impressed at how many sweet treats were packed into this tiny shop. For our first time in we tried a slice of the White Chocolate and Raspberry cake, a Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwhich, and a six count of the Strawberry with Chocolate Ganache mini Cheesecakes. Man, they were all sooo good! I wish they weren't as good so I wouldn't be thinking about them so oftem. It's hard to choose, but I think the cake slice was my favorite. It was just cooked perfectly and the frosting wasn't overly sweet and the raspberry filling was that right amount of tarte to offset everything else. It was heavenly. For the sake of my waistline I'll do my best to not give into the temptation too often, but I can't wait to go back and try some other tasty treats! Also, she does offer custom cake options if you have an event (or just want a whole cake to yourself... I couldn't judge or blame you). Not sure of pricing, but definitely worth checking into!
