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 small-cakes-for-all-guest-tables, and though we haven’t done one yet, we’re totally down to do the long-cake or sheet-cake table-scape thing. and we’re anticipating doing quite a few of those this year. 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 micro wedding thing, and we really kind of love it. So let’s say our specialty is the event for 2-100/150. Our largest three-tiered cake gives just under 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 matcha 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. While we are happy to do custom buttercream filling flavors, we do not offer custom cake flavors - we do only the cakes on our menu, as we have tested them over years for stability (important in tiered cakes!) and freshness.

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. 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.

Flowers

You may have noticed, from our photos, that we tend to work a lot with flowers. It’s kind of our thing. Kimberly has been doing flowers-on-cakes since well before it’s become the big trend it is now. The way we like to do it is to be very intentional about it. We very much prefer to use flowers that are in season, and we very much prefer to use the flowers that we grow - organically grown, non-toxic varieties. In addition to our on-site bakery garden, with its 18+ rose bushes, herbs, pansies, and dozens of varieties of accent flowers, we grow literally hundreds of flowers on our local but off-site farm plot. We have it planned so that there is always something beautifully blooming, in a good varietiy of colors, from May through October. (Read more about our process and passion in the FLOWERS section of this site.) We love using these flowers on our wedding cakes. We can work with flowers from your florist, too, if you want everything to be exactly match-y-match-y. But yes, as you can see, flowers are our vibe. We won’t be mad at you and we’ll still love to do your cake if you prefer to go with no flowers. We do work a little differently than other bakers in this way, too - when using flowers from your florist, we actually prefer to do the placement rather than leave it to the florist. But we can work that part out when we get to it.

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 pressed-flower cookies have been wildly popular the past couple of years and we love making them. They’re wonderful on a dessert bar, or individually-packaged for welcomes and favors.
