Services
In addition to baking and designing deliciously contemporary wedding cakes, Amy and her staff also create custom cupcake towers and innovative dessert tables that will keep your guests coming back for seconds and thirds.
Amy personally meets with each couple to collaborate on the design and provides a decadent choice of cake, cupcakes or assorted confections to sample.

It’s not just their variety of flavors and designs that keep their clients happy, the Vanilla Bake Shop team believe that each cake should be baked with the highest quality ingredients and always made with love. They put their hearts into their cakes, cupcakes, confections and clients. Amy and Jeremy oversee the delivery of your product to the event site to ensure that perfection is achieved every time.
