Big Mama’s Heart: Pink & Cherry Sweet. A heart-shaped cake and hot pink was non-negotiable. Topped with glossy cherries, silver glitter and accents that catch the light, vibrant animal print piping, bows, and all the love baked in a vanilla strawberry cream cheese cake.
Here’s to celebrating her - bold, beautiful, and adored. Big Mama energy! 🍒

Pretty-in-pink. Fresh roses, stencilled buttercream, gold sugar crystal accents, and a literal crown for the birthday queen 👑🍓
Made for someone who loves all things beautiful and feminine. A vanilla cake with strawberries, blackberries, raspberry compote and whipped cream. And add pink and a crown? That’s birthday royalty!

These are dangerous in the best way - two bites max and you'll think of them all day. Chocolate cookie cups, peanut butter cream cheese filling, 70% cacao Guitard chocolate, toasted macadamia nuts, and a whisper of miso for that salty sweet umami kick. The dessert table was fancy!

Boy or Girl? They've got everyone guessing💙💗👶. Mom chose the colors with care. The bets came in, and they kept the gender reveal alive way beyond the very last slice! So… what’s your guess?

His Personal Cake: Tiny but mighty and part of a larger dessert spread. While the macarons and cupcakes fed the crowd, this mini cake was reserved just for him. He comes back for the same quadruple chocolate combo each time: rich chocolate cake, dark chocolate mousse, whipped cream and ganache. I don't mess with his signature flavor!

Hello 40: The Rose Cake. 🌹
For a milestone that turns heads, like her. This two-tier design features oversized petals hand-shaped from a blend of fondant and modeling chocolate. The top tier blooms into a bold red rose, while the bottom tier flows with soft white ruffles for striking contrast. Finished with a gold “Hello 40” topper. Because 40 isn’t subtle, and neither is this. Not just a cake. A statement.

Commissioned as a surprise for their new SDSU grad, this edible art stopped everyone in the restaurant.
Diana was ecstatic when she saw her custom cake: a rose gold graduation cap, cascading sugar roses, a diploma, and her university crest for the Class of 2026. Getting the text later that “the cake was AMAZING! It was so, so good...so happy I asked you to create this piece of art!” made MY day as well!❤️ Congratulations, Diana!

Naked and unapologetic. The request: chocolate chiffon, not too sweet, no frosting, no filling, no fondant, no flowers. So I kept it just how she wanted it. Fresh strawberries, dark cherries, a light dusting of powder sugar, a single candle and a lighted happy birthday topper. Proof that frosting is optional when the cake and fruits shine on their own. No sugar overload. Still pretty.

Macaron shells brushed with edible gold and black shimmer, sandwiched with pistachio cream and rolled in generous chunks of roasted pistachios. Crisp, creamy, nutty, and a little glam. Zero apologies.

He said Lego + Dinosaur. We said you betcha! Built him a cake stacked with candy melt bricks in his favorite blues and greens and topped with a roaring T-Rex, his age -11- built right in Lego blocks, and name in that iconic Lego font. Roar-some birthday, Max!

Espresso Martini meets Tiramisu. Layers of chocolate sponge cake soaked in espresso martini, filled with velvety mascarpone and dusted with dark cocoa. It's smooth but bold and every bite melts. Coffee meets chocolate meets indulgence. 😋

Custom birthday cake for a true Killjoy. Inspired by My Chemical Romance's Danger Days, this was very personal. Because round cakes are too mainstream for a MCR fan birthday, I ditched that and built her a concrete-look cube instead. Distressed grey buttercream, hand-piped graffiti, killjoy spider in front. The other sides rep her favorite tracks - Na Na Na, Bulletproof Heart and The Kids From Yesterday, with that raw, post-apocalyptic vibe.
P***y, grungy and 100% MCR.
Long live the Killjoys 🤘.
