Delicious Desserts Takes Best Wedding Cake Second Consecutive Year
A-List Contest Sponsored by CBS Channel 4 Announces Boston’s Best Businesses

Delicious Desserts of Falmouth, MA, owned by Lisa Raffael, was named the A-List Best Wedding Cake by CBS Channel 4 for the second consecutive year. Raffael, a graduate of the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts, has designed, baked, decorated, and delivered more than 1100 wedding cakes since she opened Delicious Desserts in 1993.

The A-List contest was hosted by CBS4Boston.com and CityVoter. The contest tallied more than 100,000 votes for the 1300 Boston area businesses nominated.

Next month, Raffael competes in a Celebrity Cake Decorating contest in Nashville, which will benefit the T.J. Martell Foundation. Raffael and country singer Troy Gentry, part of the duo Montgomery Gentry, will design and decorate the "Ultimate Country Song" cake themed after one of Gentry's hit songs.

Raffael's accolades include a wedding cake featured in Bride’s Magazine September/October 2003 issue, which led to publication in the book The Perfect Wedding Details by Maria McBride. In May 2005, Raffael was invited by Bride’s Magazine to participate in the Cake Walk at Grand Central, an event that highlighted the top 50 wedding cake designers in the country. She appeared on the Food Network's Challenge program twice, earning third place on the Ultimate Wedding Cake Challenge and second on the Celebration Cake Challenge.

The A-List contest focused on 100 categories of businesses, ranging from arts and entertainment, beauty, auto, fashion, health and fitness, gifts, sporting goods, cheap eats, specialty food and drink, and weddings. Raffael’s Delicious Desserts competed against 22 of the Boston area’s wedding cake businesses. For a complete list of A-List winners, visit www.cbs4boston.com.
