Can't decide? The perfect marbleized swirl of our white and chocolate cake.
- Red Velvet Cake
Our traditional rich red velvet cake. Deep flavor and a deep color.

- Buttercream

Our true European buttercream blended with our rich chocolate ganache for a chocolatey buttercream that is absolutely delectable. This icing has a light chocolate color.
- 50/50 Icing
A 50/50 blend of our true European buttercream and Rosette icing. Sweeter than the buttercream and not quite as rich in butter flavor, the 50/50 icing has a candlelight color.
- Chocolate Ganache
A rich chocolate cream that gets poured over another of our icings (we recommend the chocolate buttercream). Has a deep chocolate color and a thick glossy sheen that is absolutely gorgeous.
- Whipped Cream
Fresh whipped cream blended with a touch of sugar. Breaks down quickly so can only be used in specific designs and cakes. Can't be tinted or decorated on (color will "bleed" into it).
- Parisian Chocolate Whipped Cream
A belgian chocolate blended whipped cream. Light, chocolatey, and not overly sweet. Breaks down quickly so can only be used in specific designs and cakes. Can't be tinted or decorated on.
- Rosette Icing
A classic "grocery store" style icing made from powdered sugar and shortening. A sharp sweet flavor with a bright white color. Tinted icings are generally made using rosette icing.
- Tinted Icings
Our tinted icings are made with the above mentioned rosette icing and require dyes to get full colors. Darker, deeper, and more vibrant colors like blues, reds, purples, black, and others can cause the icing to have a bitter taste and can stain teeth, tongues, clothes etc. For that reason, we generally encourage customers to avoid more vibrant colors, though sometimes for specific designs it's the only option to achieve the look.
Signature Fillings
- Bavarian Cream
Our most popular filling, a velvety whipped vanilla filling that's quite a bit lighter than a traditional cooked custard. Not similar to the pudding style Bavarian cream some folks think of when we mention "Bavarian cream." Think vanilla ice cream in whipped form.
