STEP THREE
Creation
Where your cake comes to life
The drawing board
01
From the moment our consultation wraps up, I get to work bringing your cake to life. I create detailed hand-drawn sketches, as close to the final vision as possible. While the finished cake always has a little personality of its own, that sketch is what I'm looking at every step of the way
02
Baking from scratch
Every cake I bake comes from my personal recipe book ~ a collection I've built over a lifetime. Some recipes have been with me since childhood, others I've adapted over the years to work exactly the way I need them to and taste exactly the way I want them to.
03
Creating decorations
This is where I get to do what I love most. I specialize in handmade, realistic sugar flowers ~ and I mean truly realistic. I study each flower, understand how it's built petal by petal, and recreate it entirely out of sugar. It's meticulous, detailed work ~ the kind that has me completely in my element, refining every little piece until it is just right.
04
Finalizing & photography
The final stage is placing each decoration exactly where it belongs until the cake feels complete. And then comes the photography. Getting the backdrop, the lighting, and the angles just right takes real time and thought. Because your cake won't just be on my Instagram, it'll be in your wedding photos too. It deserves to be delicious, look stunning, and be remembered exactly the way it should be.
