“I knew very early in my wedding planning process that we did not want a traditional wedding cake and wanted to have a dessert bar instead. I am so grateful to Melissa at Bear Brook Bakery for giving us that option - once I saw photos of her work and menu on her website, I wanted no one else and I'm ecstatic she was available and worked with us. Melissa's desserts were honestly one of my favorite parts of the day. Like...second to actually getting to marry my husband. I was getting ready as she dropped things off and set up so I didn't get to see them until I walked into the reception and I was absolutely blown away. The cookies, cake shooters, mini pies, etc. that we ordered looked absolutely tantalizing. Everything was delicious but my personal favorite of the treats that night were the vanilla bean tarts topped with fresh fruit. They were perfection. I loved, too, that multiple guests came up to me at the reception to rave about the dessert bar and how delicious everything was. My dad, who had initially been a little put off that I wasn't doing a traditional cake, came up to me after a few minutes at the dessert bar to tell me that the mini blueberry pies were amazing and he wouldn't doubt me again (haha). For me, wedding cakes have never been memorable. Having been to a dozen weddings in my life, I just don't remember any individual cakes tasting great or looking so beautiful that they stuck in my mind. Melissa's dessert bar though? I don't see myself or my guests forgetting that anytime soon. Melissa, you're amazing and if I were planning this wedding again, I wouldn't work with anyone else for desserts.”

“I had the pleasure of including chocolates from this company as wedding favors, and they were an absolute hit! The exquisite blend of flavors and the smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture left our guests delighted. The packaging was elegantly designed, adding a sophisticated touch to our special day. These chocolates truly made our wedding unforgettable, and we couldn't have chosen a better treat to share with our loved ones.”
