I'm so thankful for all of you who keep me in mind for your birthday celebrations! I am fully booked for June, but still have some July and mid-late August spots open if you're hoping for cake or cupcakes as part of a celebration.

Cake pictured: cardamom vanilla cake with raspberry jam and orange honey Italian meringue buttercream, topped with vanilla cream cheese frosting, honey, and fresh blueberries.

An enchanted forest cake for R & S 💍

This couple knew they wanted fairy tale vibes, and included "the inside of the cottage" at their magical venue Vaughan House Micro-Weddings in their inspiration brief, and then let me run wild with the design. I had a ton of fun, and am so thankful for their trust in me.

Cake details: dark chocolate cake with Earl Gray buttercream and chocolate hazelnut ganache.

It's another big tasting week over here, so I'm offering a deal in an attempt to not drown in extra cupcakes.

$30 for a baker's-choice mixed dozen. Pickup available Saturday or Sunday in Afton or Amherst... Possibly a Friday evening option for my Lynchburg friends. (Message me to discuss timing details.)

While supplies last, and orders must be placed by Thursday. Available as an add-on to any current order, or as a stand-alone new order.

Thanks for helping me out!

Vintage vibes with spring berries, garden flowers, and hand-made gumpaste swans for S & G's May wedding at Vaughan House Micro-Weddings

I had so much fun with this couple's maximalist inspo, and I think this may be my favorite vintage cake yet. S & G also went all-out with fun flavors to share with all their guests: chocolate earl gray hazelnut, strawberry matcha, and lavender crème brûlée.

Top tier: chocolate cake, Earl Gray IMBC, chocolate hazelnut ganache
Middle tier: strawberry cake, jam, strawberry matcha cream cheese frosting
Bottom tier: brown sugar vanilla cake, caramelized sugar topping, white chocolate lavender ganache
