Southern Sugar offers custom cakes and cupcakes for all your special occasions! I’m a small town country girl with a big dream. Thank goodness for YouTube!
Southern Sugar started as just a small and fun idea that came after I attended Culinary School. In the beginning, I was just doing a small and simple cakes and cupcakes for friends and family members under the name “Haley Cakes”. After no time at all, it became a passion that I decided to run with and make into a 2nd full time job. After graduating college with a degree in Baking and Pastry, I wor
ked at a few different bakeries and cake shops and learned so much from them and also many trials and errors at home. Plus, the help of lots of YouTube tutorials. In December of 2017, I was asked to run a small table at an event my job was having and pass out my cupcakes. That’s when I knew that if I played my cards right, I could get business from people outside my family and friends. I rushed to find a new name that I connected with and felt confident telling people about. After many, MANY ideas, the name “Southern Sugar” came to me when I looked at my muddy truck while walking out of a cake supply shop. I immediately knew that was it. My “booth” at this event was not thought out. Little business cards made from Walmart, a naked table and a big smile, I handed out my cupcakes. It definitely took awhile for word to spread, but eventually, I started receiving orders from people I had met at the event. Then it turned into their family and friends contacting me. After that, I decided to make my Facebook and Instagram business pages and Southern Sugar took off from there. I went from having maybe 1-2 cakes per month to 1-2 cakes per weekend! December 2018, I was asked again to run a booth for the event. I was much more prepared that time around. Professionally made business cards, matching tablecloth, banner and pictures of my work. I looked like a professional! ;) So here I am today, very blessed to be where I’m at, but craving for more. I am very thankful for my family and friends for believing in me and also pushing me to believe in myself and my worth. I wouldn’t be here today without the wonderful people who tell their friends and family about me. So THANK YOU! Couldn’t do this without y’all! -Haley

Good evening all!
I wanted to let everyone know that I have decided to take a step back a bit on making cakes for a little while. It has become difficult to juggle everything; cake decorating as well as my full time job, school and trying to spend time with my family. I will still take orders, but I won't be able to take as many as I would usually be open for. I was accepting 2 cake orders per weekend, but for the time being, I will only be taking 1-2 per month. I appreciate all the love I've had, but I need to be able to have time to do these other things that are needing more of my attention.
Thank you for understanding!!

Hi there! Do I have anyone in the Leon Springs area or close by who has a sweet tooth?!? I mistakenly made the wrong flavor for an order so I have cupcakes that I don’t want to go to waste! I have a box of 12 vanilla and a box of 9 vanilla. Or you can have both! Message me if you’re interested in picking them up! They aren’t iced yet so I can ice them in one flavor of your choice, if I have the ingredients available! Discounted price!!
