About Baby Cakes Bakery

A love for baking is surely a genetic trait one I inherited from my grandmother Claudette, lovingly called "Grandma Cookie" by her great-grandchildren. I have baked for my family's restaurant, The Pizza Shack, since I was a teenager. Over the years, I learned the importance of creating a product that is both special and of high quality.

 

In February 2012, I was discussing the specials for Valentine's Day desserts with my brother, Michael, and sister-in-law, Laura. I had this fun, exciting idea to make a spectacular cupcake as the special. If there's any moment in which Baby Cakes was born, it was then. I wanted to bring class to a cupcake, and I knew it just had to be stuffed. Why should towering layer cakes have all the fun? With a green light and a desire to venture out of my comfort zone, I created exactly what I set out to make a gourmet cupcake. It was a classy, delicate dessert in a most-loved cupcake form, and it was staying around much longer than Valentine's weekend!

 

In 2017, I had the incredible opportunity to compete on the Food Network show "Bakers vs. Fakers" and won with our signature cupcake, the Golden Ticket. Since then, I have created a brand for myself, Baby Cakes.

 

We are a from-scratch bakery, and my company shares the same passion and dedication instilled in me when the family recipes were taught to me by my Uncle Jim and my grandmother years ago. I love that I am able to put my personal spin on a dessert, and that it is so well received.
