About


patti*cakes is a reflection of chef Patti Samper’s passion, creative energy and artistry.

All our cakes are custom designed, baked and handmade by chef Patti Samper — from flavors to colors, and concept to final product. We use mostly organic ingredients as well as (difficult to find) fine ingredients from around the world.

Each cake is especially designed according to our clients’ preferences and taste.   As no two persons are the same, neither are the cakes produced at patti*cakes. Each one is unique to its owner and the occasion, which chef Patti enjoys tremendously making as memorable.

Cakes start at $10.00/pp.

Tips and Advice
there is a difference between bakers/bakeries and cake designers. bakers/bakeries will provide more typical themes and flavors.
custom cake designers are more detail oriented and will develop customized recipe's, colors and designs to suit clients' specific preferences.

when ordering a custom designed cake, please choose your cake designer 6 months prior to your event.
select a cake designer that is in-keeping with your ideas/preferences rather than someone who claims they can do "anything". 

select a cake designer or baker whom you are personally comfortable working with.
