Sherry's Cake Creations

Sherry's Cake Creations Making Custom Cakes is where my happy place is. I enjoy being able to be part of that special day/o Hello, I'm Sherry! Baking really is my happy place.

Here's a little about me:

I have 2 children (Olivia and Owen) and am a former full time Engineer by day and a baker by night. I have given up my Engineering Full time career to make baking my new full time gig so that I can be around more for my kids! I am a self-taught home-baker. I began just making cute cakes for my own kids, then would get asked to help out friends and family with their cake

needs. One thing led to another and it gradually expanded into a small side business. I still REALLY enjoy every single cake I make and love new challenges that come along. I am happy to work with any allergies/sensitivities that may exist (i.e. Gluten, nuts, dairy, eggs) and will adjust my recipes as needed. I NEVER have any nuts in or around my cakes unless specifically requested. (I have a fabulous Nutella Buttercream, that I have to keep secret from my own children or it won't make it out of the house.) My favorite types of cakes are for kids and baby showers, and weddings, however, I am up for anything and love trying new things. I am getting more and more into making wedding cakes and am really enjoying doing those. Be on the lookout for any specials or pop up items I offer periodically through my site - especially at holidays!

The Reese’s Cup masterpiece for awesome Victoria!

Layered with chocolate ganache drizzle and chopped up Reese’s Cups between the layers. Topped with a chocolate ganache drip and more of that oh-so-good peanut butter buttercream and full size Reese’s Cups!

If you or someone you know likes Reese’s Cups - keep this one in mind!! It’s so good. Can be made with vanilla or chocolate cake inside.
(This one has vanilla cake)

For those that don’t know me personally- or aren’t friends with me on my personal page (or with my husband) … my father very unexpectedly passed away late Saturday night at the early age of 67.

Please understand that I may not be as responsive (or responsive at all) for a bit. His services are out of town Sunday and Monday and I’ll be out of town through Tuesday. Most everyone has been amazing.

My family and I are beyond devastated as this was incredibly unexpected. He lived pretty close by in Huntersville and was here as often as he was able to watch my kids tear up the soccer fields. He will (and is) missed terribly.

Please bear with me as I learn how to grieve and support my mom and brother and my children.

Just wanted to give everyone a little heads up as to why I may be out of the loop a bit.

End of year announcement

I will NOT be doing thanksgiving specials this year. We will be taking family time off this year.

I am also closing the books for 2022 for custom orders. (I am booked through the end of the year aside from the holiday weeks)

I will announce any specials as time allows - however, this year has thrown lots of challenges at our family so I will be taking a slower end of year than typical to spend with family.

A blue work of art for Kayla! My first cake “baby” who isn’t a baby anymore at all! This is the 9th!!! cake I’ve made for her!

Happy 12th birthday, Kayla!!

Note - this was a “dealers choice” cake with the only instruction besides flavor being that she loved blue and not to make it girly - just “cool” - love those types of orders where I can let my artistic mind go wild!

UPDATE - sold out of regular loaves.
Have 2 more GF loaves left.

So I’m a bit behind this year - it’s been a heck of a year and the hits keep coming but I’m trying to get my act together 😁

I’m doing some pumpkin loaves this week and next. On a FIRST COME basis.

Please message me if you’d like some loaves of PUMPKIN BREAD (remember they freeze and thaw well).

My hope is the next round will be the beginning of November (sometime prior to thanksgiving so you guys can have for thanksgiving week).

GLUTEN FREE FRIENDS - please also let me know if you all would like some and how many loaves - I will be doing those next week.

Loaves this year will be $12/loaf.

Message me with how many loaves you would like and if you have a preference as to which week you would prefer to get them. This week or next week.

Payment will be needed prior to pick up unless we already have an established relationship with an alternate payment type. (Venmo, cashapp, Zelle etc)

Thank you all and yay for my house smelling like pumpkin again! I LOVE pumpkin season!

My Story

Hello, I'm Sherry! Here's a little about me: I have 2 children (Olivia and Owen) and I was an Engineer for 19 years and decided to leave corporate America and my commute to RTP to be around more for my children with all their sports and activities so now I have time to focus on my cake business more full time and work it around my family. Baking cakes really is my happy place. I am a self-taught home-baker. I began just making cute cakes for my own kids, then would get asked to help out friends and family with their cake needs. One thing led to another and it gradually expanded into a small side business, and now my main business. I still REALLY enjoy every single cake I make and love new challenges that come along. I am happy to work with any allergies that may exist (i.e. nuts, dairy, eggs, gluten) and will adjust my recipes as needed. I NEVER have any nuts in my cake unless specifically requested. (I make a fabulous Nutella Buttercream, that I have to hide from my own children or it won’t make it out of the house.) I love making fun cakes! Whether they be for kids, baby shower or for those fun adults that never grow up! I also enjoy making pretty, elegant cakes. Always looking for new challenges and trying out new techniques. Never be afraid to ask me to try something you’ve seen somewhere. I’ll be honest if I think it’s outside of my wheelhouse, but I’m almost always up for the challenge!

I just wanted to share a few pics from my daughter’s graduation party from University of South Carolina. Alexa requested her cake be ONLY from Sherry's Cake Creations. Sherry and I were former engineering co-workers. Yes …I drove almost 2 hours to pick this up because… yes, they are that good. Top was almond vanilla, bottom was red velvet with chocolate ganache inside…. All buttercream frosting with fondant name/year, braids, and of course, the best Cocky I have seen!!!

Thanks Sherry… that and the cake pops were 100% gobbled up!!!
