My company is based on the belief that our customers' needs are of the utmost importance. I am committed to meeting those needs.  Consequently,  my business relies on repeat customers and referrals.   All of my cakes are baked to order, using the finest domestic and imported organic ingredients.  The 000 Caputo flour from Italy helps to create unusually  tender cakes with a fine crumb, and with exactly the right amount of moistness.   Powdered fondant/icing sugar is India Tree's (www.indiatree.com) version, which is specially developed for the baking trade.  It has much less cornstarch than grocery brands, and is formulated to produce "smoother and glossier" icings and fondants.  Their Caster/Superfine sugar is the best sugar for my cakes.  It allows for superior blending of ingredients with less mixing--over-mixing produces a tough cake.

     My sugar flowers and decorations are all personally handcrafted from sugar paste, fondant, marzipan, butter-cream and royal icing.  My meticulous attention to detail helps to create superbly realistic looking flowers (see picture gallery) and other painstakenly crafted, detailed decorations

     My cake boards, intricately designed with originality and attention to detail, provide a special backdrop for my cakes.  They provide a dimension of beauty and originality which you will be hard pressed to find  anywhere!

     I would welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and to deliver to you the cake of your dreams.  There are  limitless design possibilities and flavor options!   A complimentary consult and tasting are included with all potential orders.  Two to three months notice for wedding cakes, and three weeks notice for special occasion cakes are recommended.   We are located in Lyme, CT, with free delivery within a 40 mile radius of Old Lyme Connecticut. Other locations are negotiable!                                                                                                                            

     Also, if, because of distance, it is not possible to deliver the cake at all, I will provide a beautifully handcrafted cake topper and other decorations necessary to finish off the cake.  Also, I can provide you with one of my beautiful cake boards by itself.  This service has a minimum order of $400, plus shipping, for the topper, and a minimum order of $250, plus shipping, for the cake board alone.  A combination of the two starts at $500, plus shipping.
