⛳️ Happy 11th Birthday, Armaan! It was so much fun creating this custom golf cake. Thank you for trusting C³ Cakes to be part of such a special celebration! 💚

✈️ Off to the Arctic… but not before one last surprise.

Many of you know that while C³ Cakes is my creative passion, my full-time career takes me to the Canadian Arctic each summer as a marine chemist. For the next couple of weeks, I’ll be swapping buttercream for glaciers and seawater samples. ❄️🌊

Before I packed my bags, I finished creating a new signature flavour that I’m so excited to share with you.

☕ Introducing the C³ Signature Espresso Crunch – Arctic Edition

Four layers of my signature ultra-moist chocolate cake, filled with silky espresso Swiss meringue buttercream, house-made espresso toffee bits, crispy feuilletine, and rich dark chocolate crunch.

It’s deeply chocolatey, perfectly balanced, and made for anyone who believes coffee and chocolate belong together.

This special flavour will be available to order when I return August 1st.

Thank you for supporting my little business while I balance two careers. Every cake you order allows me to keep creating, experimenting, and sharing what I love most.

Until then… wish me luck in the Arctic! ❤️❄️

☕ Coffee lovers, tell me your go-to order:
Latte • Cappuccino • Americano • Flat White • Mocha?

80 years in full bloom 🌸🌿

This special cake was created for an incredible mom, grandmother, and passionate gardener whose signature flowers are dahlias — especially Piper’s Pink.

Chocolate cake filled with salted caramel Swiss meringue buttercream, homemade salted caramel sauce, and crunchy toffee bits 🍫✨

The dahlia blooms were handcrafted from cake pop and buttercream, nestled inside a watering can covered in white modelling chocolate — every element made from scratch, with lots of love and attention to detail.

A sweet tribute to 80 years of nurturing gardens, family, and beautiful blooms 💕

🌊🍰 The Beaufort Gyre, in cake form 🍰🌊

For our recent meeting, I brought a little edible oceanography to the table. This cake was inspired by the stratified water masses of the Beaufort Gyre, from the polar mixed layer at the surface all the way down to deep water below.

🔹 Layered velvet and buttercream represent the vertical structure of the water column
🔹 A “slice” reveals Mixed Polar Layer, Pacific waters, Atlantic water, and deep water
🔹 Edible details include a cake pop mooring and tethered ocean profiler, and a top-down “drone view” with sea ice isomalt and white chocolate polar bears

Science, but make it dessert. 💙
