Introduction
Only taking projects in Colorado until the end of 2024. No projects in Colorado after the end of the year, thank you. Please read my bio to make sure we're a good fit before reaching out. Specifically my base starting prices for cakes. My base starting price is $150. Tastings start at $30 for three sample cakes, $60 for 6 flavor sample cakes. Plus a delivery fee. I can only do tastings for orders starting at over $500. I do not do private lessons; baking takes hours and ends up being a full day event. I'm a culinary school graduate with over 10 years of restaurant experience, and over 15 years with specialty cake and dessert experience. I love to bake with fresh, organic, ingredients, and to experiment with new flavors, textures, and cuisines to keep it interesting and to challenge myself. My first and biggest passion is for baking and desserts! I make one of a kind, boutique cakes that can't be found in a store. I absolutely love making cakes: Wedding, birthday, anything really. From simple elegance to elaborate carved and sculpted cakes. I really enjoy doing table-scapes and dessert bars/buffets with lots of variety as well. Weddings can be such a hit with something as simple as a show stopper of a dessert bar! I have an eye for detail and design and think a table can make quite the statement with the right flowers, colors and props. I charge delivery fees for cakes based on per mile or time, which ever is less. Base delivery starting fee is $50. My base starting price for cakes is $150. Estes Park $75 Denver $70 Aurora $100 Littleton $100 Colorado Springs $200 Greeley $60 Boulder $30 Happy Eating - Chef K 🍾🍰

Kristen exceeded my expectations on this cake. When a 7 year old wants a snake cake and reputable bakeries around town wouldn’t make one, I reached out to Kristen and she never hesitated on committing to the job. She did a phenomenal job and everyone was asking who did the cake. He was definitely a happy 7 year old at his party and so excited to see his snake cake. Kristen is now our go to for all cake needs.
