Celebrate Love.

We love being a part of your celebrations of love. Engagement parties, bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, weddings and anniversaries - we are here for it all with options for cakes, small desserts, favors, and more.

We are now booking for wedding/event season 2024. Please call us Wed-Fri 11am-5/6pm and we can answer any questions you may have and get the ball rolling to bake up sweets for your special celebration. 267.740.2354

Let’s start with cake.

Cake is traditionally a big part of the wedding, but these days, you have a lot of choice about that cake.

You may know exactly what you want, or we will be happy to help you decide, but the options are plentiful. You may go with one large tiered cake that gives enough servings for all of your guests. You can do a smaller tiered cake that gets cut for the ceremony of it, and then additional servings for the guests can come from a non-tiered (read: more budget-friendly) cake that gets cut behind the scenes. Or you can do cupcakes, or a buffet of smaller cakes in various flavors, or just a little sweetheart cake, or you can do an assortment of desserts and no cake at all. One more option to throw at you; we do a tiered cinnamon bun cake if that’s more your speed. We have many options for a wide range of budgets and we’ll be happy to work with you to come up with what feels best for you.

Now, a little bit about what we offer and how we work…

Think classic and elegant.

And of course, delicious — that’s the number one priority — but we sure do love to make those cakes and sweets look pretty, while we’re at it!

We’re all about baking up classic, elegant, modest cakes, and decorating them with fresh flowers and/or fruit. We do two-tiered and three-tiered cakes, and we do cake buffets, where you have a range of standard layer-cakes in various flavors and sizes. We do bite-size portions of individual desserts, too, to round out your offerings. We can do seasonal pies, and we can even do a stacked/tiered cinnamon bun cake, if you’re looking for something a little different.

We’re a small bake shop, and smaller weddings are more our thing than grande affairs. We did A LOT of tiny weddings cakes the past few years for the COVID micro wedding thing, and we really kind of loved it. So let’s say our specialty is the event for 2-100/150. Our largest three-tiered cake gives about 100 servings, but if your guest list is a little bigger than that, we can offer cupcakes or supplemental cakes to make up the servings. If you’re looking for a towering four or five-tiered cake and/or looking to serve 200+ guests, we might not be the right bakery for your event.

Flavors

Freshness is our biggest concern, as well as offering a selection of flavors that will both inspire and delight. We keep our list of flavors and fillings down to what we can make fresh, from real ingredients, in each season. Of course we do classic vanilla, and we do a killer chocolate stout cake. For the more adventurous, we have our orange+almond+poppy cake, or our vanilla+lavender, or brown-sugar+bourbon. (See the Cakes section of this site for the full list and more info on flavors.) Our Swiss meringue buttercream is positively dreamy and while classic vanilla is a wonderful match with most flavors, we can get adventurous with our buttercream fillings if you wish — hello rose+pink peppercorn or salted caramel? We do put a lot of care and love into our baked goods, and we’re convinced that it’s the love that makes our desserts stand out. We do offer vegan options. We do not offer gluten-free cakes or cupcakes.

Design

We favor a simple, as in classically elegant, style over trendy cake decorating fads. We love decorating with fresh flowers and/or fruit as it tends to reflect the season of your event and it allows us to work with our local flower farmers/growers/florists to source the best blooms. (We even grow a lot of them ourselves in our on-site garden.) Alternatively, we can work with your florist so that your floral decoration exactly matches the rest of your wedding decor. In addition to flowers and fruit, we’re happy to add pops of gold, texture, a chocolate drip, sprinkles - there are lots of options within our classically elegant repetoire. You can see many more photos of the style we tend to favor on our Instagram/Facebook - there is a Story Highlight of Weddings on our Instagram page. Please note, though, that we are a small and busy little bakery that loves making delicious cakes - we are not a cake studio, and we do not specialize in custom trendy decoration.

Desserts

In addition to cake, we're happy to work with you to come up with an assortment of desserts that will be both memorable and delicious for you and your guests. 

Some of our standard offerings include: bite-sized portions of our beloved salted caramel brownies, raspberry oat bars, caramel+coconut bars, and creamy lemon bars. Lemon or fresh fruit & cream tartlettes in the summer, apple and pumpkin ones in the fall, and keylime and/or chocolate+caramel ones always. Cream puffs, mini cupcakes, madeleines, cookies, and more. We can do packaged treats for favors, too. (Our mini pop tarts make GREAT favors when we decorate them to match your day, as do our pressed-flower cookies.)

What we don’t do (Sorry, it’s just not our thing!)

Fondant, specialty cake art, artificial or out-of-season fruit/flavored cakes, sugar flowers, shaped cakes (we do round), cake pops, intricately-decorated cookies, heavy on the colors (we keep our cakes and frosting as natural as possible), and gluten-free cakes. If you must have one of these items, no hard feelings! We are happy to recommend another local bake shop that can make it happen for you. You can find more images of the kind of work we do in the other pages of this website and on our Instagram/Facebook.

Pricing

Our prices are fair and reasonable for delicious baked goods made from scratch with quality ingredients and care. We are happy to work with all budgets - we can go big and go all out, or we can keep it simple, modest and sweet.

Delivery

We are a small, local shop. We offer delivery and set-up to venues in our surrounding area. Anything over 45-60 minutes away is outside our range. (Sorry!) We do charge a modest delivery fee which includes cake set-up. Some smaller cakes we are happy to send out the door for you/a trusted guest to transport and set-up, but generally, we do recommend delivery so that we can have all the stress of making sure your cake makes it there safely.

Tastings

At this time, because we are such a small and busy little bakery (again, not a cake studio), we are not able to offer formal in-house tastings. However, we will be organizing a Spring tasting event and a Fall tasting event. SPRING TASTING EVENT: Dates to be announced soon! See below for details! Please stay tuned to our social media to find out more as we firm up our fall dates.

Booking and Timing

While we try to keep things easy and casual, it is in everyone’s best interest to book your date as soon as possible. Because we specialize more in small weddings and events than huge bashes, we’re able to take 2-4 events per weekend, but those dates do fill in! (We are already booked for May 4th as one of our bakers is getting married that day, and of course we’re doing the cake and going to the party!) Please call on a Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday 11am-5/6pm to discuss your date and vision, and to get onto our calendar. After an initial chat, we’ll have a pretty good idea of whether we’re well suited to bake up your wedding dreams, and then from there, we can follow up with an in-person meeting (if you’re local) to go over more specific details, like wedding cake silhouette and flavors and decoration and additional dessert ideas. Email works for communication, too, but please note - it is difficult for me to keep up with all of the emails sometimes. If you don’t hear back from me, please follow up with a phone call during business/office hours! Please, no contact via social media.

Celebrate love.

Obviously, most of this has been about the main event - the wedding - but we are also happy to do cakes and sweets for all the events leading up to and after the big day. Engagemet party cake, bridal shower treats, rehearsal dinner desserts, goodie-bags for guests who’ve traveled for the celebration, breakfast bakes for the wedding party - and then anniversary cake and baby’s first birthday…. let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but we’re just a phonecall away if you’d like to plan.

Spring Tasting Event

We will be offering a more formal take-away box of our most popular Spring/Summer wedding cake flavors for pick-up on Saturday March 23rd or Sunday March 24. Each box will contain sharable-sized slices of four of our most popular cake flavors; chocolate stout, vanilla+lavender, lemon, and Almond Dream (different from pic at left). There will also be two mini vanilla cupcakes with specialty flavor buttercream frosting, and two of our pressed-flower cookies. The cost per box is $32. Order/reserve yours using the button below! Note: we do not charge for our informal tasting boxes, which can be picked up most weekends with at least 3 days notice, but with those, we cannot guarantee what or how many flavors will be included - and they’re in the form of cake tacos, not pretty slices. We will do another tasting event in late July or early August.
