April 8, 2001 Dear Ms. Janice Harrison: It's been a week since the blissful event of our daughter's wedding on March 31, 2001. My wife (Frances) and I have been re-living the treasured memories of the wedding. We have been talking to our friends and many family members. There were several best-liked events of the wedding, i.e., the DJ's music score, the vocal wedding Song; and/or tasteful Luncheon. However, the one over whelming tasteful piece of conversation was the Wedding Cakes. Our bridal and grooms Cakes. I would like to take these few moments and put into words the high praises and appreciation Frances and I have for your participation into making our daughter's one day magical. When first recommended to us, we were hesitant due to all the wedding horror stories we had hear about Independent Bakeries and using the Web in ordering. However, as "word of mouth" about your excellent tasting and elegant mastery in Cake making; our worries were quickly put to rest when we reviewed your large portfolio of cakes. We appreciated your flexibility in working with us long distance; since our wedding event was held in Maryland, the bride and groom were coming in from New Jersey and we are located here in Texas. Your arranging for weekend and extended hours to allow our daughter and new son-in-law a taste test was literally delicious. Ms Harrison, your recommendation and selection of the Groom's (chocolate) cake made the Bridal Cake table complete. The Bridal wedding cake was the center of attention and guest conversations. You left no decoration details untouched, the miniature rose flowers were cute and tasty. We took a gamble and noted in our wedding programs that there would be no dessert other than cake served. Good decision, the guest could not stop talking about how "HOMEMADE" your cakes tastes and "how not" like the traditional non edible COMMERICAL cakes you receive at most receptions. Frances and I salute you on a Job Well Done! We will be one of those "word of mouth" references to our family and friends. Please be advised, our Daughter, Monica and Duane, our son-in-law, BOTH CONCUR with our assessment Sincerely Tyrone & Frances Crawley 06/30/2001 Janice, The cake turned out beautifully. My guests raved about how good it was and we were able to bring home a few pieces for later. Ericka (Gilford) & Carlos Lee 07-21-2001 Janice, I just wanted to thank you for your service for my wedding July 21st, 2001. The cake was Excellent! Everyone is still talking about the cake. Thanks again. Anthony & Sharon Tyler-Chavis 7/28/2001 Janice, It was a pleasure to work with you. The cake was as beautiful as it was delicious. Thanks for your part in making my daughter's wedding a success! Janet Jones, New York, NY 07-21-2001 Dear Ms. Harrison, Thank you so much for your services. The cake was beautiful and delicious. Here's a picture of the cake with the flowers. Sorry it took so long. Sincerely Juanita Howland-Greene. 8/11/01 Janice, Once again the cake was simply delicious as always and the Power Ranger worked out just fine. Thanks again Pamela Hall-Davis 10/27/01 Janice, The cake was absolutely perfect. All of our guest complimented us on choosing a great bakery. Thank you, for "putting the icing" on our wedding cake. Thanks, Mr.& Mrs. Oliver (Leonaye & Brent), Upper Marlboro Md. "....everyone was asking who made the cake. We would recommend your services to all our family and friends!" Gary & Theresa Thompson 09/15/2001 Hi there, The cake was great! Everyone loved it as I thought they would. You can be sure to get a few recommendations from me in the next year or so as I have two gals getting married soon. I assume you are available for non-wedding cakes as well. Thanks for everything. Ireti 12/08/01 Subject: RE: Birthday Good Morning J. Harrison First let me THANK YOU. The cake tasted so good and looked so pretty that my son just didn't want to cut it. However, he cut the cake and it was gone in less then 10 minutes. I ate my first piece and had to run and hide my next two pieces. That a sin, I know - I just lost 15lbs during the month of Nov. however I have become addicted to your cake. I have to say I have never tasted a brought cake that tasted so good. And I will be ordering a Carrot Cake, Spice, and Rum cake and another Butternut very soon. Thank you so very much. Have a Great Day! PS. One of my employees was at my son's party Saturday and I think (pretty sure) she will be ordering her Wedding Cake from you. We have been looking at the Wedding Cakes on the web this morning. I will also be using you for our parties in the future. Thank You, Ms. Lenora Reeves December 15, 2001 Hi Janice, I just wanted to take this opportunity after everything has settled to thank you for a beautiful wedding cake. We received so many compliments on that beautiful beautiful cake. I want to tell you that you have a special gift that God has granted you with and I hope he continues to bless you in this new year. I know if I ever have another event you will hear from me. I have fowarded your number to several people that said the cake was wonderful. It is amazing because most of the time you see cakes that look beautiful but don't taste good, YOU HAVE BOTH!!!!. Thank you for everything and may God bless you in this new year. I will keep in touch for more cakes. Thanks Always, Michelle and John 11/23/01 Oh Janice, It was so perfect! The cake transported just fine in the trunk of my car. Beautiful! No one wanted to cut it, but they were glad they did--the flavor was outstanding. I will definitely send others your way if they need a referral. My "peoples" at home in South Hill, VA though, may be out of luck 'cause I ain't promising to bring another cake in the trunk of my car. I have your board--I'll find out if someone is in your office over the next two weekends and will drop it off. My parents were in shock that technology will even allow you to put a photo on a cake of all things! My mom was even more shocked that we had stolen her photographs and she didn't know. We took lots of photos of it to send to my brother in Korea. Thank you so much for all your hard work. You'll hear from me again for sure. Love. Lorelei Hill January 19, 2002 Hello, I know it has been a while. Things have finally settled down. The cake was delicious and we were all really pleased. It got eaten, too! Everyone except for 5 showed up. The snow stopped just in time for all to attend and began again right after it was over. I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say "Thank you". Bennice Thayer "...there were only crumbs left and it was money well spent. The cake was beautiful, doing business with you was a pleasure, your professionalism was excellent and there's no way I can express how thankful I am to have found Occasional Cakes..." Ericka D. Liverpool July 06, 2002 Mt Airy Mansion The cake was delicious and looked really nice. Perfect and we loved it. Mila and Ken Lowery 4/09/01 Dear Janice, EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE of our guests loved the homemade wedding cake! Thank You very Much! Aneesah & Terry Ladd Mon, 20 May 2002 Janice, everything went very well. Of course, everyone said how delicous the cake tasted. We didn't have enough only because people took two and three pieces. I will be doing business with you again for those special occasions. Kim and Jimmy left this morning for the honeymoon. Thank you for your excellent services. Sharon Frazier Thank you. The Jan. 14th 2001 event went really well. Everybody enjoyed themselves. The cake was fantastic. Everybody devoured it. Thank you again for contributing to make the evening a memorable one. Kailash Gangar 5/25/02 Just wanted to drop you a note! The cake was excellent. Enjoyed by all. It was very beautiful and perfect for our wedding.
