Editorial Review for Swiss Confectionery Inc. – by Missy Heckscher

In Short
Five generations have run the confectionery which speciakizes in wedding cakes. Swiss's five-cake "artists" bake more than 60 per weekend. Cakes can be done in contemporary or traditional style, and can be designed with as many layers and ornaments as the bride desires. Don't come here looking for donuts and pies--Swiss doesn't have 'em. The bakery specializes in cakes and pastries, including petit fours, fancy brownies, jelly rolls, champagne patties, Russian cakes and lady fingers.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I have had Swiss cakes for special occasions since I was a child. My wedding cake, my 25th Anniversary cake, my children's birthday cakes, graduation cakes, have all come from Swiss. I would not go anywhere else. When you bring the cake home it smells the whole house - we usually order a bigger size cake then needed, so we have left overs. Always fresh....can draw just about anything on the cake......and the poured icing I just had on our anniversary cake looked so elegent and tasted delicious. They will have my business for years to come - its a tradition in my family.

Pros: Friendly and professional

Cons: Not alot of parking, but the cakes are worth it.

I had both the chocolate and wedding cake at our wedding and there was none left! Most delicious cakes ever - they make great birthday cakes too - just don't order last minute.
