LAYERS

The classic cake glow-up — two to four layers of fluffy perfection, each hugged with filling in between, then dressed up in all the buttercream glamour. Every slice is a little surprise party of flavor and texture. Our Mirror Mirror cake is the perfect example of this.

TALL CAKES

Basically the “tall drink of water” in cake form, also known as a Double Barrel Cake. Two matching tiers stacked to look like one flawless masterpiece, completely covered in buttercream. Hidden supports keep it standing tall while all eyes stay glued to that perfect finish. Our Lady of Quality showcases what a tall cake size would look like.

A birthday cake inspired by the Cat in the Hat, featuring a tall red and white striped hat, blue fur-like icing, and Dr. Seuss-themed decorations, including a sign that says "That Thing" and a cake topper with the phrase "Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss".

TIERS

Now we’re talking statement piece. A tiered cake stacks multiple cakes (each one a full design moment) into a show-stopping centerpiece that screams celebration. The more tiers, the bigger the drama — and we’re here for it. Our That Thing cake is the best example of this size.
