And how long have you been doing cakes?I was doing work release in high school at a local bakery (Parsons Bakery). I started as a cashier, then went to donut frying, and then started assisting on simple cakes. A co-worker asked me to help on a wedding cake. After we finished, I thought... I could do this. Took some classes and voila. I've been doing cakes for about 5 years.Q: What types of items/cakes do you offer?I mainly provide cakes, cake pops or cupcakes for any occasion. For a few orders I've agreed to do cookies but prefer to stick with "cake" for now. Maybe someday when the kids are bigger and I have more time I'll open up to other treats.Q: What is the most unique cake you've done so far?I've done so many different kinds of cake designs. A Jabba the Hut, a giant lipstick... I love the designs that clients come up with on their own to fit a specific person, couple or situation. It makes it so much more fun for me to create than just copying a picture.
