Deborah Li is not only an artist but an actual wizard, and Kuro Neko Cake Studio is her tower of magic. My wife and I were lucky enough to commission a cake from Kuro Neko for our wedding, and it turned out that one of the best parts of the whole reception was telling people that, yes, it really is cake! (I'm still not sure that my wife's grandma believes us.) When we asked for a book cake, we knew it would be beautiful, but upon seeing it the morning of, we were absolutely blown away. The colors, the sculpting, and how it all fit together as a piece of art left us without words. And, somehow, it tasted as good as it looked. As for the process, Deborah was wonderful to work with: attentive, keen to get the personal details just right, and fantastically friendly and supportive. Thanks in no small part to her artistry and amazing work, our wedding day was completely magical!

Deborah was wonderful to work with- we wanted a somewhat unique cake and when I saw her work on instagram I knew that I had to work with her! I loved seeing what she came up with and how she tied together so many different parts of our wedding decor together. The flavors were great, we had such a hard time picking between them. She also made it easy to rent a cake stand from her so I didn’t have to find one and risk it not fitting the cake. Would definitely recommend her!
If you're looking for incredible taste and cake design, Kuro Neko is the perfect choice! My husband and I had the honor of working with Deborah for our wedding cake. We were completely in awe of the gorgeous design she delivered, using the lace detail on my dress as inspiration! There are no words to adequately describe how truly amazing and talented she is! She was so kind and made the entire process seamless from inquiry to drop-off. Easily one of our favorite parts of planning our wedding!
Oh, and our families are still raving about the brown butter and sweet potato cake flavor! The perfect fall treat!
My husband and I are fans of wedding cake - we knew we wanted one, but finding a cake studio from out of state for a wedding can be tricky. We were looking for a unique cake in terms of flavor and design. In Persian culture, rose water is used frequently in pastries and cakes and, we wanted the cake design to reflect elements of a traditional Persian love cake with pistachios and rose petals. The cake is also important for the cake cutting ceremony (aka the knife dance). When we found Kuro Neko, we were so excited about the strawberry rose flavor and the gorgeous design of cakes. Deborah is the sweetest human and was so flexible with us and incredibly creative. She sent a sketch of the cake, and when we fell in love with it we even decided to add another tier. She also delivered it on our big day and sent a kind note beforehand. Deborah is insanely talented and our guests were in awe of the beautiful cake she designed and gave high compliments on how delicious it was. Hire Kuro Neko for your wedding, party, etc. Don't think twice.
Our wedding cake was the most fantastically beautiful thing I had ever seen - we were pretty vague on design preferences and she knocked it out of the park. The flavors we tried were all incredible, but highly recommend the brown butter sweet corn (tastes like a light, buttery toffee-kettle corn). The price was more than reasonable for a cake with such obvious care taken at every step, and communication and drop-off were flawless. Such an incredible addition to our wedding day :)
We are Seth and Beth Wedding Photography. A big thanks to Kuro Neko cakes for their professionalism in a recent wedding that we worked together in. We look forward to working with you again!
We ordered a "plain" cake from Kuro Neko as a cake for our micro-wedding and it was absolutely perfect! It was gorgeous and tasted fantastic. Ordering and pick-up were also very easy. Thank you for the amazing wedding cake!
We ordered the lemon blueberry “plain cake” for a party and it was gorgeous and absolutely delicious! We also got a small cake for our son’s first birthday and it was almost too cute to eat. Delicious, beautiful, and great customer service. Would definitely recommend her cakes for weddings or parties alike!
