Ahoy Matey! Our Bobby was selected to be on Food Network Challenge: Extreme Pirate Cakes, which will air on September 4th at 7pm CST. It has been quite a journey getting Bobby on the Food Network for the second time this year!

It is Friday, and I have to take a moment to remember Robin Perlo Berry and her husband, Josh Berry. Robin came to the bakery for a challah every Friday. We began to know each other over our counter and then again professionally as she planned events for our customers’ life cycle events. When someone hired Robin to help with their simcha (happy event), she became a part of the […]

I hear cake tastings have no calories, so make sure you enjoy them J. (We all wish that was the truth!) Photos or cake samples in their shop for you to view. The ability to help you decide what you would like. For […]
Of course, I am prejudiced, but I believe your wedding cake baker should be one who: 1. Works in a commercial kitchen – no dogs or cats allowed 2. Has insurance 3. Is cognizant of food safety and has a health department certificate (ie., the City of Houston gives you four hours to have crème cheese out – includes, prep time, delivery and amount of time sitting out […]
So you have been on all your appointments, tasted cake and reviewed your options. You found a baker you like and feel confident about – what happens next? 1. Some bakers have a detailed contract which you will need to sign. 2. You will need to provide a deposit – usually about 50% and it is usually non-refundable. This deposit holds the date for your wedding cake to be made […]
