Our wedding cakes are made with 100% organic and fair-trade ingredients. Because we use only organic and natural ingredients, we DO NOT do fondant, royal, or gum paste decorations, which we find too artificial.

*Chocolate-Orange Mousse

*Ganache (chocolate satin finish)
*Icing designs can also be piped onto cheesecake layers

Designs
*Fresh organic & non-toxic flowers and greenery
*Sugared fruit
*Sugared leaves
*Piped dot borders
*Piped shell borders

*Berry layers between cake layers (dowels)

Our new head Pastry Chef is certified in Pastry Arts by the American Culinary Foundation, has eight years of wedding cake experience, has won several prestigious medals, and recently taped an invitation-only cake challenge on The Food Network (to be aired). She will personally prepare and decorate all wedding cakes, handle with our Executive Chef all wedding cake tastings, and with our Executive Chef and logistics team handle wedding cake transportation, setup, and cutting.
