A Modern Take on the Fruit-Covered Cake

This dome cake isn’t just about looks, though it certainly has those too. With four tall layers inside, it’s designed to hold its structure while delivering fresh berries and detailed buttercream details on the outside.

Fruit and florals can easily become overdone, but here, they stay precise. This cake balances elegance and abundance without ever looking fussy.

Pastel Mini Cakes with Vintage Buttercream Details

These are perfect for intimate celebrations, dessert tables, or as extra-special gifts. Each cake is designed to stand on its own, but they’re even better as a set. You’ll find ruffles, swags, and sweet details in every bite.

The Sweetest Buzz

Cupcakes in Their Coquette Era

These little cupcakes feel like “cameo brooch meets sugar art.” Soft pink ruffles, piped rosebuds, and dainty bows, each one a tiny vintage dream. I wanted them to feel like something you’d find tucked into a jewelry box... if jewelry were made of buttercream.

Perfect for tea parties, baby showers, or anyone living their coquette era. Small, sweet, and unapologetically frilly.

Vintage Buttercream Cake with a Rosy Twist

This cake is all about the drama, light pink buttercream, hand-piped bows, and tiny roses that took way too long but were totally worth it.

Perfect for birthdays, bridal showers, tea parties or just because you feel like being extra.

The Romantic Hydrangea Cake

Some cakes are made to be remembered.

This two-tier vintage-inspired beauty is one of those unforgettable creations. An ivory canvas dressed in hand-piped swags, ruffles, and floral frills.

The color palette leans gentle and graceful: pale pink, dusty lavender, sage green, and buttercream white. Each flower was piped individually, creating a cascade of petals that wrap around both tiers.

This Wedding Cake Was Basically a Garden in Buttercream

This cake was such a labor of love. From the start, I knew I wanted to fill every inch with hand-piped flowers that felt soft, romantic, and garden-fresh. I used a mix of gardenias, butterfly ranunculus, hydrangeas, gerbera daisies, roses, dahlias, and stock flowers, all in shades of pink, blush, dusty rose, lilac, and ivory.

It’s the kind of color palette that just melts you a little. Delicate and elegant, but still full of personality. I love how the flowers tumble organically down the sides, like they’re growing right out of the cake. Those subtle little details, the buttercream texture, the gentle pops of green, and the placement of each bloom are what make this cake feel so special.

Cue the music, grab your glitter, and let’s talk about this cake! When vintage charm meets disco fever, you get a party centerpiece that’s equal parts sweet and spectacular.

I went full-on Studio 54 meets Versailles with this two-tiered beauty!

Perfect for a birthday queen who loves a bit of sparkle with their slice, this cake brought the fun, the flair, and a little fabulous to every inch. Whether you're turning 30, flirty, or forever 21, this one’s for the bold-hearted and sparkle-obsessed.

So go ahead, turn up the music, strike a pose, and let the cake do the talking.

A Garden of Buttercream: A Floral Wedding Cake to Remember

Some cakes are sweet, some are stunning, and then there are cakes that stop people in their tracks. This two-tier wedding cake falls firmly into that last category. Covered in a cascade of buttercream blooms in deep burgundy, dusty rose, blush, and forest green, it’s a floral dream come to life.

A Cake That Feels Like a Bouquet

When designing this cake, I wanted to capture the romance and elegance of fresh flowers—but in a way that’s completely edible. The bold burgundy and dusty rose flowers create depth and drama, while the softer blush tones and forest green leaves add balance and movement. Each petal is hand-piped, layered with care to create texture and dimension, making the cake look almost too beautiful to cut (almost!).

Why Buttercream Flowers?

Sugar flowers are lovely, but there’s something extra special about buttercream florals. They’re soft, delicate, and delicious. Every flower on this cake is made with my signature buttercream, ensuring that beauty doesn’t come at the cost of flavor. Plus, there’s a certain magic in knowing that every detail was crafted by hand, petal by petal.
