The best birthday cakes say something about the person you're celebrating: their favorite color, the theme of the party, a hobby, or simply their name piped across the top. Lauren designs every birthday cake with you, so it looks the way you pictured and tastes as good as it looks.

Every cake is a single-tier, two- or three-layer buttercream cake, baked fresh for your date here in Nacogdoches with locally sourced ingredients. Send an inspiration photo, a party invitation, or a few words about the birthday girl or boy, and Lauren will create her own take on it.
