Pear Cake...


Look at this cake!
A customer asked that we make a small cake for a backyard wedding, she really wanted to highlight the abundance of pear trees in the yard- isn't this the perfect wedding cake? The pears are made of marzipan it's not only edible but tasty!

Just an example of the creative things our cake decorators can do! The yummy staff loves making your cake ideas come to life....what's your dream cake?

Cupcake of the month!

September is already here! That means it's time for a new cupcake of the month!

September is about savoring the last few days of summer- it's time to enjoy one last swim in the lake and a few more ice cream cones. Bathing suits and sandals will soon be swapped for cozy sweaters and winter boots. Time to have a few last summer bonfires... roast some marshmallows and eat a few more s'mores.

Wait!!! No need to go out and buy all the fixin's for s'mores- just come to yummy stuff and pick up our cupcake of the month: graham cracker base, chocolate cupcake with chocolate filling and a burnt marshmallow topping! I suggest picking up at least 2 for everyone... they are that yummy!
