FAQ
  • Swiss Meringue Buttercream: my own recipe with egg whites + minimal sugar cooked to safety, whipped & mounted with butter
  • Sponge: custom recipes that make a moist cake - not to be confused with egg white based genoise/dacquiose/angel food
  • Extracts: nothing artificial, I make my own & use actual ingredients to impart flavors
  • Colors: if the ingredient has color, it will impart naturally 
  • Layers: layers are counted by the sponges with meringue buttercream & filling between - ie a 3 layer cake has 3 sponge layers with 2 filling layers between
  • Tiers: each tier is a cake stacked on top of one-another: a two-tiered cake is made of 2 cakes, a three-tiered is 3 cakes, etc. There is a center rod in my tier sets for extra security/stability. 
  • Servings: curious how the math adds up? I have cutting guides I am happy to share with you!
  • These are not grocery store cakes - meringue buttercream is very different from tub "buttercream" found at most grocery stores & bakeries; American buttercream - made with powdered sugar & shortening & other commodity ingredients. This holds true for the cakes/ingredients themselves. I am here to support local farmers & businesses by utilizing their fresh ingredients.
