Design photogenic cakes like the signature chocolate drip and pastel cupcake stack pictured in our header!
Rich dark chocolate cake layers filled with pastel pink & cyan swirl buttercream, finished with a dark chocolate ganache drip and topped with matching gourmet cupcakes & sprinkles.
Most states allow selling non-potentially hazardous baked goods (like buttercream frosted cakes, cookies, and breads) directly from home without a commercial kitchen. Check if you need a Food Handler Card or basic home inspection.
Supermarket cakes are mass-produced with cheap preservatives. Your custom cakes use real butter, custom designs, and fresh ingredients. Position yourself as a luxury artisan baker rather than competing on bottom-dollar pricing.
Set your cake near a window with indirect daylight (never direct harsh sun). Use clean vinyl backgrounds or soft pastels. Shoot straight on at eye level to capture dramatic chocolate drips and topping height!
