WEDDING CAKES
You have many choices when it comes to your wedding cake. You can buy from a local grocery store bakery, you can have a family member bake it or you can find someone who you know will make exactly what you want. I strive to be that baker that bakes what you want for your special day.
I have a vast variety of cake flavors, fillings and icings for you to make your wedding day one you will remember. If you need some help deciding what flavors you want, I will be more than happy to help you with your decision. Also, consider doing one of my "tasting boxes". This will give you some idea what flavor combinations work together.
Over the past few years, my wedding cake schedule has been full about mid-year for the following calendar year (I usually hit my '10-12 weddings limit' by late May/early June). So the sooner you contact me about your BIG DAY ... the better. I tend to book up quickly and turn many couples away.
