We have many talented artists at Cakes by Gina and we can recreate almost anything you find online! We do, however, have certain restrictions when it comes to copyright issues with certain brands.

We are known for our 3d cakes. If you dream it.. We make it!!

If you are not serving the cake within 2 hours after pick-up, you do need to refrigerate your cake. We use real milk, butter, and eggs and it is important for those to stay fresh. It is best to pull your cake out of the fridge at least 2-3 hours before the event. We feel our cakes are best enjoyed at room temperature.

We take pride in everything we do. Our cakes are freshly baked the week of your event. We do not freeze any of our produced goods. We make our cake icings daily, silky french buttercream fillings  and we do use ingredients like butter, eggs, sugar ….and our skill level is second to none!

We will provide a box for your caterer or coordinator to place your topper in and there will be clear instructions attached to the top of the box so you can properly freeze your cake topper. If done correctly, you will be enjoying a yummy cake on your 1 year anniversary! We believe in the tradition of freezing the anniversary cake topper however, if you would like a fresh one made one year later you can order one for $60 which is smooth iced or simply decorated with “Happy Anniversary” on the cake board.

We do not ship cakes, due to that we use butter and dairy products as part of our production.

We do not offer classes at this time. We do offer internships for students that are studying baking and pastries and are required to intern before graduation.
