With well tested recipes, each cake is made entirely from scratch using fresh and local ingredients. The simple ingredients of butter, sugar, flour, eggs, and cream turn into the most glorious cake layers and fillings. With well balanced layers of flavors, and a cloud like swiss meringue buttercream. We create cakes that are not too sweet and are a perfect end to a magical event.
Our owner and pastry chef, Sarah Auger, graduated from The Culinary Institute of America in 2009. Over the last ten years she has worked as a pastry chef for farm to table restaurants, high end catering companies and top bakeries in Vermont, San Francisco and New York City. As she was building her repertoire working with various forms of pastry, Sarah was all the while continuing to build her skills creating and designing wedding and special occasion cakes. After traveling for portions of her career, Sarah has landed back in the Mad River Valley where she grew up, finding inspiration in the beautiful surroundings here.

“We had a small, outdoor, relatively low-key wedding but I wanted an awesome cake and Sarah definitely delivered! She also made us French macarons, the perfect addition to our dessert table. Both the cake and the macarons were delicious, beautiful, neat, and professional; clearly the work of a very skilled baker. Lots of positive comments from our guests on both. Sarah herself was also professional, responsive, and easy to work with. I'd recommend her services to anyone.”

“Sarah took the time to meet with us as a couple, get to know us, welcome our family to try her delicious cakes, and get to know our vision for our day. First of all, the cakes were delicious, second, they were beautiful! Sarah took the time to understand our vision. She painted the picture for the display and helped walk us through each step. We were beyond happy with Sarah, her delicious cakes, and her work professionally.”
