Following graduation, she worked as Head Pastry Chef of a Relais & Chateaux inn and restaurant. After deciding to focus on cake and sugar art, she began making wedding cakes in 2001. She went on to win both the National Gingerbread House Competition at the Grove Park Inn in 2004, and Food Network’s first Gingerbread House Challenge in 2005.

Sugar flowers are made by hand, petal by petal, and add an exquisite artistic aesthetic to a cake. Working with sugar flowers allows for limitless creativity in the design process as they can be made in any color, style or variety imaginable, and are able to be arranged in ways that are not possible with fresh flowers. They keep beautifully for years, so they can be brought home and displayed as a special remembrance of your event.

Consultation & Tasting

The Cake Tasting is one of the sweetest experiences of planning your special event! Christina looks forward to working together with you to create a design that is uniquely yours, and tells your story. Much time is spent on each individual client’s design process and sugar details. As a result, the studio takes on a limited number of cakes each year. Once you have selected a date for your event, please contact us to begin the process. Wedding cake prices begin at $10 per serving. There is a $500 minimum order, plus delivery. Cake consultations and tastings are by appointment only, and there is a $50 tasting fee, which will be applied to your order should you choose to book with us. At least three days notice is required if you need to reschedule your appointment, as cake samples are made fresh and are customized to you and your event.
