Cake arrived as described. We kept frozen for an additional two days before our party. It was AMAZING and still so fresh and delicious. Tracking and details were spot on. I also found the packing and serving instructions very helpful.

I ordered a cream cheese pound cake, half strawberry cake, and half coconut cake. I ordered the cakes for Christmas dinner and everyone loved them. The cakes were absolutely delicious and I look forward to ordering from Sugaree's again.

The caramel layer cake brought back memories of my childhood days when my mom stood over a coal stove to make that frosting just right. It was delicious. The texture of the cake was good and the moisture in the batter could readily absorb the moisture from the frosting . This was my first purchase but it will not be my last!

The cake was nice and moist and the icing was so delicious. I would suggest to anyone who loves caramel cake to try it! Also it was wrapped VERY WELL which is very important to me. I have ordered cakes and they have been crumbles because it was not packed correctly.
