The drip cake on this page was a tenth birthday.
Birthday cakes are the cakes we make most. A first birthday with a smash cake beside it, a tenth with a character on top and red drip icing, a sixteenth in the right shade of a color that has to be exact, a fiftieth that nods to the person without a joke, a ninetieth that feeds the whole family. Each one is made from scratch and decorated to the idea you bring.
The cake can be picked up from the kitchen or delivered with party catering, dessert cups in the same colors and a fruit display. Flavors and fillings are built to the guest of honor.
Dessert pricing starts at $6 per person. Send the date, the age, the guest count and a photo or a theme and we come back with a design.

Every weekend of the year, in every neighborhood.
Birthdays do not have a season. Kids’ cakes go out to Ellet, Firestone Park, Goodyear Heights and Kenmore every Saturday, milestone cakes to the halls and restaurant rooms on Route 18 and Front Street, and office birthday cakes to the break rooms along East Market and South Main. The first birthday wave follows the hospitals; Akron Children’s is a few blocks from the kitchen.
Pickup is from 647 E Market Street at the time you choose. Delivery covers Akron and the ring around it, and the cake rides along with any party catering order to Kent, Canton, Medina and Cleveland.
Themed cakes take longer than plain ones. Give us two weeks for a character, a sculpted shape or a design that has to match a photo.

This place offers ALL of your catering needs. I don't believe there is anything she can't provide for you. I have had SO many meals and attended SO many events. The Taste of the City (Akron) she provided so many great "samples". An outdoor hibachi grill party with all the trimmings, steak, shrimp, chicken, rice, fresh vegetables also one of my favorites. The taco bar and loaded potatoes are great for staff meetings. The seafood is always top quality, the largest shrimp! The desserts made from scratch are amazing. Cakes, cheesecakes, individual desserts, it doesn't end. Give them a try! Best prices around with professional service.
