The Details
how We'll Work together
Planning your wedding or celebration cake can be intimidating. So many details – colors, flavors, sizes, designs. RELAX – I love all of this and will guide you through the process and decisions.
Whether you already have a good idea of what you want or are feeling overwhelmed by the choices, we’ll put our heads together to design a cake that is truly YOURS. I’ll sketch cake designs, tweaking and revising them until you’re clapping your hands and giving me a thumbs up. We can also schedule a cake tasting selecting your favorite flavors. Once we confirm the design and flavors, you can check cake planning off of your to-do list – I’ll handle all the details, including coordinating delivery and set-up.
I'm here to create your vision and organize every detail from the start straight through to delivery and set-up.

baking and decorating
What about a themed groom's cake? Craving a dessert bar for your guests? Menu choices range from causal and fun such as cake pops, mini fruit turnovers, or cookies to more sophisticated and elegant French inspired classics such as croquembouche, eclairs, and chocolate mousse. Don't forget custom decorated cookies as party favors, thank you gifts or save the date invites.
Let's get creative.
... and More
As a trained pastry chef, I'm constantly testing new recipes so your flavor options can be as customized as your cake design. I'll provide a flavor list to tempt you.
Current popular flavor combinations include: lemon cake with lemon buttercream, pink champagne cake with blackberry buttercream, marble cake with mocha buttercream,
Earl Gray cake with white chocolate buttercream, butter pecan
cake with salted caramel buttercream and coconut cake with passion fruit buttercream!
All of my creations are made from scratch with fresh ingredients,
ensuring that your cake will be moist and full of flavor.

As a one-woman business, my production schedule fills up quickly, so please reach out to me as soon as you have a date for your celebration. Order lead-times vary by the time of year with October through May being the highest demand. Whenever possible I will accept last minute orders, so if you are running short on time, let me know and we'll see what's possible.
All of my cakes are designed specifically for you, so it's difficult to provide accurate pricing until we have clarified your choices. My pricing reflects the total number of servings, cost of ingredients and supplies, design elements, time required, as well as, my skill and expertise. As a planning guide, my wedding cakes range in price from $6.50-12/person. I understand budget constraints and will make suggestions and recommendations as needed to work within your parameters, if at
all possible.
