"A party
without cake is just a meeting"

Welcome....
...to Whimsy Cakes!
Making beautiful cakes has been a part of my families history for a very long time. My great grandmother, grandmother and mom made cakes for social gatherings, their church and their children. My mother spent most of her days, as I do, baking happily in the kitchen creating all types of home cooked goodies with love. We would come home after school or other functions to sweet or savory smells from the kitchen, we couldn't wait to dig in! My grandmother and mother were traditional bakers and decorators and their sweets delighted young and old.
I now have live chat available to answer any questions you may have, please keep in mind if I do not answer via live chat in a timely manner I can not respond to any questions once you leave so please go to my contact page to send a inquiry with your email so I can send a reply. Facebook is also a great way to send your inquiries and is as simple as clicking the Facebook symbol to reach me.
Happy New Year everyone!! YES, I am currently taking orders for 2026, please check my dates below for availability! ☺️
My father had a stroke in May of last year and it took a pretty heavy toll on his health. He lost mobility on his right side so his bouncing back at 85 is very slow.
We visit various therapy professionals to help with fine motor skills, cognitive thinking/speech and mobility(walking and his right arm). He lives with me and my family so that we can take care of him, due to this HUGE change in our homelife I have had to shrink my order availability.
I AM taking orders for 2026 currently. I do require a $20 non-refundable deposit/retainer(50% of balance for wedding cakes and large orders) to save your date. I try to be accommodating as much as possible.
Because family is still my number one priority I might not be able to fit you in and apologize for that inconvenience, I can put you on my cancellation list or send you referrals to other talented local bakers who can assist you with your order.
I love what I do and I love being creative and using my talent to bring joy to others. Being a part of your special event is such an honor for me!
With taking care of my dad's needs and having a family of my own I am not always able to respond quickly to customers so please be patient, I do everything by myself, I have no assistants. If having to wait a few days for a response is too long for you I would completely understand if you decided to go with another baker and I can send you referrals to some lovely ones. My family comes first always. Thank you for your understanding and I look forward to assisting you! 😊
