Dear Fatema, Where do I begin.......
From my first meeting with you, I knew you would be the one to make my daughters
wedding cake. When looking through your beautiful book of cake designs I knew which cake
my daughter would choose, she chose your simplest most elegant cake, I thought.
Your baking skills are outstanding, each layer couldn't be better than the other. The
Ganache, was a hit with our guest but the Mocca was my personal favorite.
The artistry of your design was phenomenal. Our guest all complimented on the fondant.
When I told them it wasn't, they were surprised.
Fatema, you went above and beyond when the flowers didn't happen( I am so sorry
for that). You were very creative, improvised and made it look absolutely beautiful.
You are a true professional and I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you for your talent,
hard work and dedication to make my Daughters Wedding day a special one.
Gratefully Yours,
Adriana

I want to thank you for your absolutely GORGEOUS cake!! Not only was it a sight to
behold, it was DELICIOUS. Everyone told us how tasty it was and couldn't get over how
pristine looking the buttercream and sugar flowers looked. Exactly what I had envisioned
and beautifully executed! Thank you so much for your hard work, accomodation, and
attention to our desires.
Sincerely,
Desirae and Chris

I found you on the internet and I took a chance on ordering your cake from
the beautiful cake gallery and the customer appreciation comments from your website and I
was not disappointed at all. We had NO personal recommendations we just stepped out
on faith and we were overwhelmed by how delicious your cake turned out to be. The design
of the little girls dress was absolutely beautiful and what was even more surprising was
the AMAZING TASTE! Everyone at the shower raved at the beauty and the taste of
your masterpiece. There was well over a hundred people at the shower and
everyone had a piece especially after they heard the comments about the exquisite
taste. We even had a little leftover and were upset that there wasn't more for us to
take home to enjoy!! Trust me you will have many folks heading to Livermore for your
cakes--I know I'm heading back!!
Thanks Again,
Althea from Hercules

Dear Ms. Nuruddin,
Many thanks for the beautiful cake you delivered and setup for our daughter's
Wedding.
All the guests enjoyed a generous piece and we received many compliments. Thank you for
helping her have a wonderful wedding celebration.
Sincerely,
Mary

The wedding cake was very unique and beautiful. It tasted as good as it looked. There
were many raves about it and everyone wanted to know who the bakery was. Even the minister
wanted to know so the church coordinators could pass on the information to the future
brides.
Kathy

Fatema,
Thank you very much for doing such a great job on the cake. My Nephew Greg had
turned 21 and your cake was a very special addition to the celebration. Not only was it
decorated perfectly, but the cake itself was the best we have ever tasted. He could not
get enough of it. The Cannoli filling with the chocolate chips was wonderful. Thanks again
for working so hard to make a very special celebration.
Debbie

Fatema,
We ordered the Chocolate Ganache and Raspberry mousse. Everyone loved the cake and I
received so many compliments on the decoration.
Several people inquired about the bakery. I would highly recommend Cake Delight to
anyone!
Julie

We had many compliments on the variety of cake flovors that were chosen - Chocolate
mint mousse with Chocolate cake - White cake with Raspberry mousse and Lemon cake with
Lemon mousse. Frosting was creamy without being buttery and all variation of cakes were
very very moist. All three layers were a huge success.
Thank you
Beverly

Hi Fatima!!
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you in person, but I wanted to thank you for
the cake you made for my mom's 60th birthday party on Sat.
Not only was the cake absolutely beautiful it was absolutely scrumptious!! All the guests
were raving about it and asking about it. I gave them your information.
I will be ordering again and soon as I'm throwing my niece a baby shower in the near
future. I will be telling all my friends about you and your lovely cakes. I want you to
stay in business for a long time!! Livermore has needed a good cake bakery for years!!
Sincerely,
Kim

Fatema,
I just wanted to let you know that our extra wedding cake won't last until the first
anniversary! I've been devouring it little by little since the wedding.
The marble cake was amazing and all of our guests commented (between delicious bites)
that the cake was wonderful.
After suffering through a miserable tasting elsewhere, finding you was a
blessing. My new husband and I look forward to ordering a new cake next year to
celebrate our first year together.
Thank you so much!!
Sincerely,
Erin

Do you know what perfection tastes like?? Well from
previous experience, I thought I knew what good cake tasted like. Maybe like any average
person would think. We've probably all had birthday, shower, or another special occasion
cake, but all pretty much the same. Same components, same look and feel. But all in all,
we know what cake tastes like right??? WRONG!!! I've been misled all these years thinking
that I knew what cake tasted like!!! Now that you have an idea of where I going with this,
I can now tell you about how I came to this epiphany,.
Well I am a
newlywed. Average person. I work a regular 8 to 5-er, and pretty well balanced with a very
open mind. Oddly enough right before my husband asked me to marry him, I thought I already
knew who I was going to have design my cake for my big day. I happened to be watching food
network and they were hosted a Halloween cake battle where the top cake designers were
battling each other for the best Halloween-themed cake. Now, the competition had
competitors from all over the United States, from all different backgrounds, with
expertise in all different styles and techniques. The cake that *took the cake* (I made a
funny), was the creation of a Bay Area native who had a shop in a very familiar city to
me. I couldn't believe it. I was just kidding with my sister while we watched the
competition, saying that I wanted that particular cake designer to do my cake. A week
later on October 29, 2005, my husband asked me to marry him. At that point I knew for sure
who was going to do my cake. I was wrong again. One very important thing about being a
bride and trying to plan your perfect day, the vendors that you choose are playing a very
important part in making this day special, so choosing the right vendor will make a huge
difference. I'm not a wedding coordinator or really had any idea about what it takes to
plan a wedding, but I was sure going to find out. In my case I thought I did the research,
made an appointment, and thought I was on my way to the perfect wedding cake.
Unfortunately, I was not pleased with the way things went with this cake designer. I
walked in really excited to be working with someone who has just accomplished something as
astonishing as she did, but the feelings weren't mutual. When it was time to go over what
it was that I was looking for and what I wanted, I was not a priority. I was treated like
I was a waste of time and that this was just any other occasion. I wasn't treated like a
potential customer, especially a bride-to-be looking to invests a good amount of money for
just a cake. At that, the cakes were just mediocre. They weren't spectacular or anything.
I was very disappointed in my experience as well as the product that she was expecting me
to pay for with the attitude of some hotshot who has no compassion for her clients. Well I
was so glad that was over. Then I was back to the drawing board, until I spoke to my
florist about my cake dilemma.
That's when I
was introduced to the taste and the face of perfection. I was referred to Fatima of Cake
Delight in Livermore, Ca, by a near by vendor. Obviously I can see why. From my first
appointment with her I knew I found the perfect cake designer. She was so warm and
welcoming and very accommodating. That was so important to me, being very new to the
wedding world and had no idea what I was doing. She explained the whole process and made
sure I knew that this was an important event, so everything has to be perfect. She was
very understanding to my needs and didn't treat me like she was doing me a favor. Just
talking to her made me feel at ease.
Then it was time
for the cake tasting. Now that was *the icing on the cake* (ha, I made another funny! You
better stop me, I can go all night!). I have never tasted cake so well balanced with the
sweetness and the texture, and the buttercream, there's no words to describe the mastery
of this very common frosting. Sometime buttercream can be very tricky, but as mentioned,
Fatima has mastered it to an impeccable degree. She has perfected the filet mignon of
buttercream. Incredible!! Not to mention that she personally concocted a mango mousse
especially for our wedding. My cake was like no other cake I have every tasted. Not only
did it taste incredible, but it was absolutely beautiful! This creation of white cake,
mango and strawberry mousse, and this deadly delicious coating of buttercream had my guest
raving about it all night. As a matter of fact, they are still raving about it!
This woman is
amazing in her creations and her love for what she does. She is very meticulous, and a
perfectionist, in which it shows in the quality of her creations. She is definitely a gift
to the Bay Area wedding industry and I always rave about her work to anyone who will
listen. In making the choice for a perfect wedding cake, she went above and beyond what I
was looking for. We will always be forever thankful for her hard word and unprecedented
efforts in making our day so special.
