Custom decorated cakes

Hi, FC friends - what's your favorite bakery for custom decorated cakes? I've used Madison Park Bakery in the past...they do a nice job on the design but the cake itself is SO dense and rich. Looking for something lighter but still high quality. Thanks!

Deep Sea Sugar and Salt in Georgetown is the best cake in town. They don't do written messages, though, just flowers or other customize-able decor options. Some flavors are lighter, others more rich.

Huge vote for HoneyCrumb cakes. They've made our wedding cake and our first anniversary cake. They're GORGEOUS and omg don't even get me started on the sugar flowers they create. They are something else. honeycrumb.com
