Palermo’s Bakery created the show-stopping cake for Megan & Edward’s Shadowbrook wedding in NJ, and it was both beautiful and delicious. Palermo’s combines artistry and flavor seamlessly - their cakes are elegant, timeless, and always photograph beautifully. From delicate details to show-stopping designs, their creations make wedding photography cake-cutting moments feel truly magical. Palermo’s Bakery is a staple in New Jersey weddings for a reason, and I can’t wait to capture more of their incredible work!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Palermo Custom Cakes & Bakery for our upcoming engagement celebration. LeighAnn was fantastic—she guided us through every step, from creating the perfect engagement cake to choosing a variety of pastries for our guests. She was incredibly helpful, patient, and made everything feel smooth and stress-free. We truly appreciated her attention to detail and the care she put into making our vision come to life. We’re so excited to have Palermo be part of our special day and would absolutely recommend them!

Our cake was beautiful and, more importantly, delicious! Guests raved about how tasty it was. Palermo made the ordering process easy, and we loved that they let us try 16 different samples in our tasting; it made us very confident in the quality of all of Palermo’s cakes. It was also a nice surprise that we were able to take the top tier home, which we weren’t expecting.

We LOVED our wedding cake from Palermo! Our venue (The Palace at Somerset Park) partners with Palermo, which made the ordering and delivery experience seamless. I barely had to lift a finger aside from filling out an order form! We had so much fun tasting the 16 pieces of cake Palermo provides for at-home tastings. We liked most of the flavors but definitely preferred the classics to the fruit-based cakes. We ended up choosing chocolate pudding and cannoli for our four-tiered wedding cake, and we (not to mention our guests) absolutely loved the cannoli flavor with real cannoli cream filling! I didn't have to choose Palermo since one of their cakes was included with our venue, but I would choose it without hesitation again and again based on our experience!

Our wedding cake from Palermo’s was truly out of this world. Since they partner with our venue, The Farmhouse by Landmark, the entire process was seamless - from picking up our tasting box to finalizing our design. They also handled delivery directly with the venue, which was one less thing for me to worry about on such a busy day. As someone with a severe nut allergy, I was especially nervous about being able to safely enjoy my own wedding cake. Marylin made me feel completely comfortable and confident choosing Palermo’s for a nut-free cake. We selected chocolate pudding and lemon to offer both chocolate and vanilla options for our guests…and everyone loved it. The cake was beautiful, our topper was perfectly accommodated, and most importantly, it was absolutely delicious. We can’t recommend Palermo’s enough!

We had the absolute best experience with Palermo Bakery for our wedding cake! From the very beginning, their team was so easy to work with—responsive, detail-oriented, and genuinely excited to bring our vision to life. We chose a four-tier cake with two flavors—mango mousse and cookies & cream—and it was a huge hit. Not only was the cake beautifully designed and exactly what we envisioned, but it also tasted incredible. It’s rare to find a bakery that nails both presentation and flavor so perfectly, and Palermo truly delivered on both. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious it was (we even had people going back for seconds!). Everything was executed flawlessly, and it was one of the standout elements of our wedding. Highly recommend Palermo Bakery to any couple looking for a stunning and delicious wedding cake!

This has been my go to place for custom cakes for almost 15 years. They’ve always come through with my wild designs to the T. Leighann is amazing. They understand the importance of making your day a success. I moved 40 minutes away and I still use them for my custom cakes. Thank you so much for everything.

This bakery does not disappoint! This is the second time Leigh Ann has made a graduation cake for my children. I gave her an inspiration picture and she made it look even better! I got a cake tasting box so each kid picked his favorite flavor. The cakes came out beautiful!

We worked with Michelle to design and select a cake for our recent wedding. Throughout the process and selection, she was delightful and energetic, offering great advice to get exactly what we were hoping for. The cake turned out excellent and many of our guests commented on how beautiful it looked and how great it tasted. Thank you again for helping make our special day all the more wonderful :) :)
