Duchess of Cameron is a business based in New York City that specializes in crafting bespoke wedding cakes.

Grey and her cakes have been featured on Food Network as well as in publications like House & Garden and Vanity Fair.
Services Offered
Duchess of Cameron specializes in providing an experience as elegant and lavish as the cake itself. The process begins with a consultation so couples can discuss their vision, flavor ideas, and more. Tastings are available so soon-to-be newlyweds can sample various flavors and select their favorite. Once the taste and design elements are finalized, the company can begin work on the cake so it is fresh for the wedding day. The team can deliver cakes within the Tri-state area.
Duchess of Cameron makes the most creative, most inspiring, most unique, most artistic cakes I've ever seen! I arranged with Duchess of Cameron to create an exquisite cake for a 90th birthday party that was a museum-worthy work of art, working in the colors and decor of the elaborate wallpaper and furnishings of the venue where the event was held. There was timely, professional delivery and set-up. I've also seen and tasted another cake Duchess of Cameron created for a charity event that was a work of architectural genius and craftsmanship. I've occasionally had cake that is pretty, but not especially delicious. But the Duchess of Cameron cases were the best tasting cakes ever, as well. They are works of art that are as fresh and delicious as they are imaginative and flawlessly executed. It is impossible to find an adequate number of superlative adjectives to describe the confections Duchess of Cameron creates!

Exactly What We Wanted
Working with Duchess of Cameron was seamless - just the way a bride would like it to be. From the cake tasting at home to the delivery on our wedding day: everything was amazing. We loved the cake. Not only was it so beautiful and crafted exactly the way we wanted, but the flavor and quality were delicious as well. And the cake was delivered on time and was in perfect condition.

Delicious personalization at its finest!
I was thrown a surprise bridal shower by my dearest friends, and was surprised by a custom Duchess of Cameron cake which was such an incredible highlight to the sweet day! It was such a gorgeous cake that I felt was truly personalized to me, despite it being a complete secret until its reveal. The color palette, the abstract form, the individual leaf details...perfection! I think we must have spent a good amount of time marveling over the sculptural beauty, and I was really reluctant to cut into it...but when I did, *wow*. It was a decadent chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream and strawberries, and it was so delicious I must have inhaled half the cake myself!
I was really impressed with my surprise cake, and I would love to get another cake again! Excited to see what kind of dreamy custom cakes are in my future. Thank you so much, Duchess of Cameron!

Team of Duchess of Cameron
Grey (Grace) Pak
Co-Founder and Owner
While Duchess of Cameron’s main mission is to create a memorable experience through cakes, Grey (Grace) is also consistently working with nonprofit organizations to promote psychological well-being by providing multi-sensory experiences that can be achieved through the process of cake decorating.
With a Bachelor of Fine Arts from New York University and a Master of Science in Neuroscience and Education from Columbia University, Grey has always explored various ways to bridge the gap between art and science, experimenting with art forms focusing on phenomenology, the study of consciousness as part of first-hand experiences.
After working in e-commerce at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) with nine years of web design experience, Grey co-founded Duchess of Cameron with her older sister Jen, specializing in high-end letterpress invitations and bespoke cakes. With formal training at the International Culinary Center (formerly the French Culinary Institute) in NYC and graduating with the Grand Diplôme with Distinction in Cake Techniques & Design, Grey realized the positive aspects cake decorating has on mental health, promoting creativity and insight in everyday life. She believes the experience of creating an art form that can physically be shared with others, which literally becomes a part of them and their body, is one of the unique characteristics that makes cake decorating a powerful tool.
In the hope of sharing this positive experience with others, she founded NY Cake Design Lab where International Master Cake Artists are invited to come teach unique cake decorating techniques to professional cake makers, hobby bakers, and first-timers. As a member of Psi Chi, the International Honor Society in Psychology, Grey also works closely with Licensed Creative Arts Therapists to continually improve and develop the cognitive aspects of the cake decorating programs.
“Besides creating something beautiful that also tastes wonderful, I am on a journey to instill empowerment, confidence, and a sense of accomplishment to those who are knowingly or unknowingly seeking them, via cake-making and decorating. Maybe even call it Cake Art Therapy, if you will. Whether it be by eating cake or making cake, with one cake at a time, I believe we can overcome obstacles together — big or small — because we all have to agree, cakes make everyone happy!”
