    “ So the Sweet Spot owner has been nothing but amazing to me! Laura has been so kind and patient with me, from changing flavors to styles to how big or small I want it. She understands how important this day is to me and has been so helpful! I have tried so many of her cakes and cupcakes, and I loved them all. She actually did my baby shower cake and I kid you not it was the best cake ever! I can’t wait to see what she comes up with for my wedding, very excited to keep getting more treats from her! “
