Hey guys! I know I have not posted in so long but I’m still here and still making cakes. As much as I’d like to do it more, working full time, school and trying to also have a LIFE takes up most of my time.
-
I just wanted to come on here and show off some of my recent cakes and give out some info🩷
-
As busy as I might be at times, if you ever need a cake please feel free to message me. I cannot do EVERYTHING, but depending on your inspiration we can tweek a few things, or if I truly don’t believe I can bring your vision to life, I will be honest with you.

PRICES…
This is huge. Every cake will be priced differently.
I know things are expensive and you don’t want to pay out of the butt for a cake. With that being said I do try to make my prices fair. Although I try to be as fair as I can, I also cannot short myself. Price varies on so many things when it comes to a cake. Size, flavor, toppings, time, amount of frosting, fillings and much more.
For example the photos I have listed all vary with price.
When I determine the price for you it looks a little like this
•Supplies needed- this includes all the ingredients for the cake and frosting (and filling if wanted), packaging, toppings (such as the mermaid tail, the flowers, candles, candies and much more). When I am charging for supplies I do not charge you for a whole bottle of vanilla extract if I only used 2 teaspoons, instead I do the math to find out how much it cost for those 2 teaspoons only.
•time and labor- this includes my time shopping for materials and supplies, time baking and time decorating. I will mention that I do not “milk it”. Yes I take my time, but I feel as if I’m very efficient. I’ve done a lot of research with how much most bakers charge for labor and that number has been as high as $30/ hour but ranging more in the $20 zone. For me that is still too high considering I still have much improvement I can do. I charge $15/ hour for labor with most cakes taking 2-4 hours in total.
Unfortunately it is hard for me to determine an exact price until I am completely done with the cake… I know how frustrating this can be. But I try my best to give you a guesstimate before hand so you know if you want to follow through.
Speaking of following through, I do require a deposit. Once we get a guesstimate of what the price will be I will require a 50% deposit. This helps me gather the supplies and helps me feel secure that you will follow through with buying and picking up your cake.
I live in Sutherlin and understand that it is out of the way for most people, with that being said I do work in roseburg and can bring it to work for pickup, otherwise I will charge a fee if I’m delivering or meeting you elsewhere.
I have taken some orders 3 days in advance, and I will still leave that as a possibility. BUT I do prefer to have atleast a 1-2 week notice. If you are on a time crunch please still reach out the worst I could say is no, but sometimes I am able to make it work.

I want to say how thankful I am for everyone that has supported me in the last year.
I love baking and I love creating these cakes.
I’m still learning and not even close to perfect but looking back at my cakes from the beginning compared to now blows me away.

Now for these cakes…
This mermaid cake gave me trouble… and wasn’t quite how I visioned it but I do like what I was able to come up with.
The breast cancer awareness cake is one if not my favorite I’ve ever done. This meant so much to me as well as the person who received it.
And lastly the P**P cake, this one cracks me up. A friend asked me if I could make it and I was hesitant only because the picture she showed me looked so realistic. I had such a hard time figuring out how to make it look so real, but it ended up being super easy. I think it’s the funniest cake I’ve ever done and I was very pleased but disgusted at the way it turned out😂😂
