About
Marin Cake Studio is a custom cake bakery based in San Rafael, California, specializing in wedding cakes that are both stunning and unforgettable. We serve couples across Marin, Napa, Sonoma, and the San Francisco Bay Area who are looking for elevated design, refined flavors, and a boutique experience from start to finish.
Our studio is led by Lindsay Holdorf, a passionate cake artist known for clean design, flawless finishes, and cakes that feel as good as they look. Every cake is made from scratch using high-quality ingredients and thoughtfully layered flavors. We believe a wedding cake should not only look incredible in photos, but also be a dessert you and your guests genuinely enjoy.
From the first consultation to the final delivery, every part of the process is customized to you. Whether you have a full vision in mind or are still figuring out your style, we’ll help you design something that reflects your wedding’s tone, color palette, and personality. Romantic and floral, sleek and sculptural, timeless and traditional—we bring it all to life with a high level of care and attention.
In addition to tiered cakes, we offer custom cupcakes and decorated sugar cookies that make beautiful additions to dessert bars, welcome boxes, and bridal showers.
We work with top venues and planners across the region and are trusted by couples who value quality, service, and elegance. Past weddings have taken us to locations like Viansa Winery, Cavallo Point, Deer Park Villa, Outdoor Art Club, and private estates throughout Wine Country.
If you’re planning a wedding in Marin or the surrounding area, we’d love to help create something meaningful and memorable for your day. Please note: our calendar fills quickly for peak season dates, so early inquiries are always appreciated.
