Wonderful Woman!

Maybe I’m being biased because Belle is my favorite Disney princess and Miss Ava is French and so is Belle that I absolutely adore this woman! Lol

She did a wonderful job with her cupcake trial for my wedding cake and she was very accommodating to detail that I wanted. She is very responsive and so so sweet.

She always made a birthday cake for my coworker which was chocolate but also made me a separate vanilla cupcake because she knows I do not like chocolate. She is so fucking sweet!

Then 3 months left until my wedding date I asked her to make a Halloween grooms Cake and she delivered! My husband loved it! Very good in detail.

Thank you so much Miss Ava! You are my permanent baker and I will never ask for anyone else again!

So creative

WOW. I'll start from the beginning of my experience with Ava and Baked A La Carte. She was recommended by our venue and in all honesty, we visited a store-front bakery before coming to her. Huge mistake. Their presentation was lackluster at best. When we showed up for a tasting with Ava we were IMMEDIATELY blown away by the fact that she had carefully baked and created individual mini cupcakes for us to properly sample her various cakes, frostings, and fillings. We felt like we were sitting down with a friend to decide our cake. We talked her through what we liked and she walked us through a vision. she DREW. OUT. THE. DESIGN and showed us a digital option if we wanted. The way she drew the design of our cake allowed us to ENVISION the cake at our wedding. It's beautiful! We were sold and booked her the next day.

Unfortunately, COVID-19 interrupted our scheduled wedding plans on March 27, 2020. Ava was EXTREMELY easy to work with to reschedule our date, which will now be rescheduled again in the middle of a pandemic. Her communication is impeccable and I never had worries that she would deliver for us on our wedding day. I am SO EXCITED for the cake she will make for us in 2021.

But that's not all! We value small businesses and their work, so when we actually got to officially tie the knot in a private ceremony on May 8, we asked Ava if we could purchase a small cake from her for that day. It was jaw dropping. It's hard to decide what she does better--bake a delicious cake, or decorate a stunning cake?!?!?! Good thing you don't have to sacrifice either with her services.

Amazing cupcakes and cool cake designs

Went to a wedding where instead of one large cake they had a plethora of choices to choose from. I had to get one of everything from the Macaron to the Madeline's to the cupcakes to the homemade infused chocolates. Everything tasted so good and would definitely recommend.

Orginally from Paris, France, I moved to the United States in 2015 to realize my dreams and goals in life. Baked à la carte started in 2020 when I decided to take my passion, French recipes, artistic and creative skills to the next level by offering to bring a French touch to many special celebrations in the USA.

We are a military family owned business and take pride in helping our clients' visions become a reality. We look forward to bringing a French touch to your many celebrations!
