As shower cake and dessert professionals, we make the cake selection process simple. There are four steps to selecting desserts for yourshower:

1 - Flavors
Flavor First
Flavor is the primary focus of our bakery. When it comes to cakes and cupcakes our cake flavors are tastefully complemented by our light, airy icing. Instead of hard fondant or overly sugary buttercream, our light icing provides the perfect balance of flavor and texture.
Our cookies, cakes balls, and other desserts follow our flavor first methodology.

Customer Love
Wow!! I am so impressed with our beautiful and delicious 3 tier white cake with vanilla Bavarian cream and raspberry jam filing! It was light with just the right amount of sweetness and tartness. The cake was so scrumptiously moist too. All our guests loved the cake. This meant so much to us because 80% of our guests were Asian and don't like anything too heavy. Trust me, it's a huge compliment. I was so glad to hear our guests marveling at the beauty and taste of our cake. Thank you so much Patty and your team for making the process so easy and making the perfect cake for our perfect wedding day.

Shower Cakes ↴
Bringing Your Cake to Life
Your shower cake will come together with the marriage of our cake flavors, airy, light icing, and your ideas for design. While flavor is the primary focus of our bakery, we are happy to work with you to bring the vision of your shower cake to life. We have photo galleries for inspiration and welcome you to provide pictures as well. We’re quite sure the collaborative creation of your cake will ultimately leave your guests wanting seconds!
Fondant Free
Many images of shower cakes found on the internet are made with fondant. They may look fantastic, but they fall short on flavor. This is how Patty’s Cakes is different--you’ll cut our cake with ease and enjoy every bite!

3 - Pricing

Simple Pricing
We keep our pricing as simple as possible. Pricing is math, and we're cake geeks, not math geeks.
Shower Cake Options
Shower cakes are typically three-tiered cakes. Small showers usually have two-tiered cakes. Larger showers generally require a three, four, or even five-tiered cake, and are often accompanied by a sheet cake for additional servings. Sheet cakes are not displayed with the shower cake; they are kept in the kitchen and served unbeknownst to the guests. The combined servings from your tiered cake and sheet cake will equal your total headcount. Use the estimator below to figure out what sizes work for your shower.

When Should I Book My Shower Cake?
We sell out every weekend of the year, and some weekends sooner than others. We suggest booking your shower cake three to six months in advance.
Once booked, we're flexible. Flavors, designs, and headcount can all change up until 14 days prior to your event. Your deposit ensures you have a spot before we sell out. Book a cake tasting ASAP.

Delivery Range

Methods of Payment
Payments can be made in the store, or online. We accept cash, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.
Liability Insurance, permits, etc.
If your venue is asking for liability insurance we have you covered. As brick and mortar business we have all the insurance coverage, permits, etc. that they may ask for. Venues typically want specific verbiage on the COI (Certificate of Insurance) so send over what they have and we’ll provide the proper documents. We frequent many local venues so our COI might be on file, which is one less thing for you to deal with. Yay!

Patty’s Cake did an amazing job with my wedding cake. The tasting process made you feel comfortable with your choice, the people are amazing and no other cake shop really compared to them. I have gone back several times to get cupcakes for other occasions and they have always been a big hit. We ended up getting a banana flavored cake and it was AMAZING!
