Artisanal Desserts & Cakes
Hello, I'm Kristen and I love to design & decorate cakes. I enjoy helping out at special events & occasions by providing artisanal desserts & cakes that bring a smile to someone's face or a giggle to the party. I love what I do, and I can’t wait to make each cake!
I grew up in a family where my mother and grandmother made cakes for every birthday in our extended family and sometimes, cakes for neighbors and friends. Initially, I just stole tastes of frosting! (It is delicious) And somewhere along the line, I got hooked into the making, and decorating as well. I love the time, effort & details that goes into each cake.
I got a job at a local bakery where I learned the difference between baking an occasional cake here and there for friends and baking lots of things on a daily basis. I learned a lot from the owner of that bakery, and I was even able to teach her a few things from what I'd learned over the years experimenting at home.
Now I'm running my own business, putting my experience to work. But it's hard to call it work when I get to do what I love each day!
(Did I mention that I love frosting?)

pricing & flavors
All of our cakes are made to order and require a minimum of 2 weeks notice for Birthday or occasion cakes. And, a minimum of 2 months for wedding cakes. Deposit required at time of order. In order to guarantee freshness and quality we limit the number of orders we take each week. All cakes include basic writing and decorations. We can create almost any custom artwork you can think of for an additional charge.
The first step toward your custom made wedding cake is a consultation and tasting.
During the consultation, we will discuss decor, cake flavors, and pricing for your wedding cake. A variety of cake samples will be available for you and your guests to sample. Most tastings run around 30-40 minutes in length and cost $20.00 for a group of 4 or less. This charge will be rolled into the total of the cake if client books. Tastings are only offered for wedding cakes.
Please note: A scheduled tasting does not guarantee or hold your wedding date. A signed contract and deposit is required to hold a specific date.
The total cost of your wedding cake will depend on your choice of flavor, fillings, and decor. Most orders fall into one of three price ranges. Multiplying this price by your number of guests will give you a general idea of your total cake cost. Your final price will reflect your unique design choices.
