“ Rovalis Ristorante Italiano is one of my favorite places ever. While their various pasta dishes are great, from their excellent spaghetti to their great pesto and their flavored drinks too, my absolute favorite part about Rovalis are their cakes. I LOVE Rovalis cakes. Andrea does an excellent job making them. I still remember the first one I ordered. It was the Strawberry Champagne cake. At that time, I thought that was the best strawberry cake I ever had. Even today, it is still one of my favorites. Since then, I have ordered these cakes for birthdays and various holidays for years. I have yet to find one cake I dislike personally. The frosting is AMAZING, and what I also love is the balance of the flavors. Most cakes aren’t overly sweet or too lacking, making them very delectable. Even the sweeter cakes are still fantastic. With Rovalis, as long as they continue making cakes, I'll continue buying them and even come in for their great italian. ”
