“I was blown away by the cake Belle Saveur created for our wedding. It’s the best cake I’ve ever had. The cakes they make are moist, rich, and full of unexpected flavors and textures that compliment and balance one another. It’s too difficult to put into words, you just have to taste it.”
Success Coach Stacey Ellen
"Jessica of Belle Saveur is a truly exquisite chef that never disappoints. From her gourmet elaborate dinners to her cakes and cupcakes, I’ve never met anyone that pays as much attention to detail as she does to the taste of her creations. Whether you are looking for someone to cater your special event or teach you some of her secrets, Jessica is open, friendly and easy to work with. She truly cares about making your experience special and goes up and beyond every time."

“We hired Belle Saveur to cater a 5 day intensive workshop with 3 meals a day in a rural camping location without many amenities. Belle Saveur was able to provide the highest quality and most delicious meals often using local produce and meats. Belle Saveur far exceeded our highest expectations, all participants raved about the food. We would hire Belle Saveur gain without a doubt.”

“Belle Saveur catered a lunch & learn at our office and absolutely blew our staff away. We had a record turnout for the presentation because of the hype of having a professional chef prepping soups, salads, and crostini in your kitchen! People who missed the luncheon were asking about it for days afterwards, architects who attended raved more about the meal than the product showcased. Make a lasting impression by having Belle Saveur cater your event- your guests won’t be disappointed!”

“I have had the privilege of working with Belle Saveur over the the years assisting and hiring them for specialty events. The company is professional, delightful, and above all, offers amazing food. I hired Belle Saveur to teach a cooking class with a group of my friends. Belle Saveur’s team offered above and beyond what was expected and that evening pleased all of my guests tremendously! I highly recommend Belle Saveur and I am grateful to have experienced the delicious food they create. Many thanks!”

“One of the foundations of our school curriculum is access to professionals in the field. I recently taught an immersive culinary course to a group of 25 middle schoolers; Belle Saveur’s Chef was a guest teacher on our first day together. Not only was the Chef able to gracefully incorporate the fundamentals of food and kitchen safety into an engaging 2-hour session, but she was able to do so with a group of young kids who had a wide variety of kitchen experience. The Chef had kids cutting, slicing and whisking within minutes. By the end of the lesson, kids had made aioli from scratch, brunoise'd shallots and made a quick pickle. What struck me even more than 11 year olds picking up these tasks with ease was Chef Jess’ patient, thoughtful and engaging nature. Belle Saveur’s cooking class was a safe space to take risks and explore unfamiliar foods.

“Belle Saveur was an absolute pleasure to work with. Jessica was very attentive during the conceptual process, listening to all of our preferences and adding creative and thoughtful suggestions that ended up making the difference. The cake was delicious and beautifully decorated making it the centerpiece of our wedding decor. Our wedding took place on a beautiful beach in Carmel, California and the cake that Jessica created matched this gorgeous location with its stunning beauty. When the day of our wedding arrived she presented a cake that met and exceeded all of our expectations. She managed to combine mine and husbands wishes in a seamless and creative way. This was impressive considering my husband wanted carrot cake and I wanted apple pie. The crowd was in awe as the cake was presented and those sentiments continued as everyone raved about the taste. It was obvious to us and to everyone attending our wedding that Jessica created this cake with love and passion.”
