Sugar and Spice Custom Cakery specializes in customized cakes & cupcakes for all kinds of events. We take great pride in making custom orders into edible pieces of art. Meticulous attention to detail, allows for orders to be as unique as the individual. Our cake toppers are hand sculpted and/or painted and can become a keepsake (a treasured memento you will have forever). All recipes are made from scratch using only the freshest and top of the line ingredients. Sugar and Spice Custom Cakery is a home based business; we believe in providing small business service with large business results. We can keep our prices lower than most commercial kitchens since we don’t have the overhead expenses they do. The owner has almost 20 years’ experience in the industry, from working at several local bakeries & custom cake shops to freelancing. She is a graduate from the Minneapolis Art Institute International Culinary School with Summa cum laude, is Food Safety Certified through the state of MN and her business is approved and registered by the State of MN.

I specialize in customize cakes where all items are hand sculpted. Edible pieces of art is what I like to call my work. To view cakes I've made please visit either my Pinterest page or my Facebook page by copying the below links. https://www.facebook.com/dawn.olsonwallerus/media_set?set=a.1243716933608.2033206.1249908597&type=3https://www.pinterest.com/kakekreator/my-cakecupcake-creations/To order a cake please email at dolsonwall@hotmail.com. Because the items I create require a certain amount of time to dry I do require at least a 2 week notice for all orders.
