Testimonials

On 8/23/2025 Brent Hadley had this to say:
When I contacted Crystal about making an anniversary cake for my parents, I asked about customizing the flavor. Her immediate response was "no problem!" She wasn't kidding! She created a strawberry bourbon masterpiece that was both gorgeous AND delicious! My parents were absolutely delighted with this scrumptious sensation. Her price was incredibly reasonable, and Crystal was so easy to work with. You should order from her before she's too busy to take your order. We are already planning our next event just to order from her again! Thank you so much Crystal!

My original plans fell through and was left scrambling last minute for a GF cake. I contacted Crystal the day prior to the event and she was able to help me out by making a beautiful and delicious cake for our celebration. I could not be more grateful and highly recommend Crystal!

FAQ

Are your baked goods ready to go, or do you keep inventory on hand?

Every order is custom made to your specifications. I don’t keep pre-made inventory on hand, which means your treats are freshly baked just for you! If you have something specific in mind, feel free to reach out and we’ll make it happen.

Can you accommodate allergy restrictions?

Yes, I can bake with allergy-friendly ingredients upon request. However, please note that my kitchen is not certified allergen-free, so I cannot guarantee the absence of cross-contact. If you have severe allergies, please reach out to discuss options.

Do you offer flavors or items not listed on your menu?

Absolutely! I love trying new flavors and customizing orders. If you don’t see something you’re craving, just ask. The best way to reach me is by text or email, especially if you can’t get through on the phone—those methods are often quicker and easier for communication.

How far in advance should I place my order?

I recommend placing your order at least 5–7 days in advance, especially for custom or large orders. My schedule can fill up quickly, so the earlier you reach out, the better chance I can accommodate your request.

Do you offer delivery or pickup options?

Yes! I offer local pickup and limited delivery depending on your location. Delivery availability and fees vary, so please contact me to confirm if I can deliver to your area.
