Cake Tastings
We do not have a set menu anymore because we individually customize our cake flavors based on your flavor choices. Let us know about flavors you love and we will create cake flavor pairings to match your favorite taste options. How many flavors can you choose? It’s up to you! Yes, every tier can be a different flavor choice.
Our buttercream icing is always delicious Italian Meringue Buttercream (IMBC). The most delicious cakes in the world are covered with Italian Meringue Buttercream.
Need a fondant covered cake? Yes, we also work with fondant covered wedding and specialty cakes. My fondant wedding cakes are covered with Massa Ticino luxury sugar paste. This is the best fondant in the world for performance and taste.

Chocolate Ganache
Made with couverture Valrhona or Callebaut chocolate and heavy cream, chocolate ganache is offered instead of buttercream per request under my fondant cakes for an additional $20/tier. Ganache stands up beautifully in Atlanta humidity and heat. Naked ganache cakes are an artistic statement and offer a delicious alternative to buttercream. Chocolate ganache is available in milk chocolate, white chocolate or dark chocolate options. I highly recommend that fondant wedding cakes have a layer of ganache underneath the fondant.
Buttercream
Our buttercream is always gourmet Italian Meringue Buttercream made fresh in house. This is a professional buttercream made with egg whites, heated sugar syrup, European butter and real vanilla beans. It’s silky and divine! We custom flavor this buttercream to match our cake flavors.
