About

PKs Custom Cakes is a home-based cottage style bakery located in Arroyo Grande, California. Pam, the owner-proprietor, pays special attention to the details of any order by starting with the freshest organic, homemade ingredients and finishing with a unique one-of-a-kind design to match your special event. PKs Custom Cakes specialty is handmade sugar flowers of all types from roses to Magnolias.

Services Offered

Pks Custom Cakes are completely custom. You will be involved in the creation process from beginning to end to ensure you are happy with the entire process. After a consultation and orders are placed, Pam will draw a sketch to ensure you are both on the same page prior to beginning work on the actual design. This saves you both money and precious time. Before any consultation, you’ll be invited to do a tasting to confirm your cake and icing flavors, and then will receive updates as the cake decorations are being created. In addition to cakes, you can request to have cupcakes, side cakes, a groom’s cake, or a mixture to accommodate the amount of cake and the type of cake display you require. On your wedding day, you won’t have to worry about a thing as all cake delivery and set up will be taken care of for you so you can enjoy your day as stress-free as possible.

Beautiful AND Delicious!!!

OMG! What an amazing experience we had with Pam and PKs Custom Cakes!

Pam was wonderful, warm and professional from our initial tasting to the secure delivery and presentation, to the delicious seconds most of our guests had. My bride and I could not have had a more positive experience. We could not recommend them more highly!

Pam went above and beyond to make sure our cake was perfect!

My husband and I had a unique vision for our coastal wedding cake, and Pam definitely made our dreams come true with our beautiful 4 tier narrow cake. She even went above and beyond to continue thinking about how to make our design better and more unique over emails, in the months leading up to our event.

From the hand painted seashells to her custom sugar flowers, the cake got so many compliments; and not to mention her flavors are amazing. It was the centerpeice of our small coastal wedding.

Choose PK Custom Cakes for your next event, you will not be disappointed!
Thank you Pam!

Excellent tasty cake

PK Cakes was wonderful to work with. The sugar flowers she makes are stunning. She was able to match the florals being used in our wedding to the cake perfectly and even hand painted butterflies for the cake. The flavors are bold and the cake is moist. Everyone loved it!

Beautiful & Delicious!

Pam did my wedding cake and it's no exaggeration to say she is unbelievably talented - The cake was beautiful! The sugar flowers were so spot-on, they looked real. We ordered red velvet, and it was the most moist, melt-in-your-mouth red velvet cake I've ever had. The cake was so beautiful I had a watercolor rendition put on canvas for me to hang in my coffee bar. We are not from the area and Pam was super accommodating and helped to make our destination wedding a little less stressful. If I every find myself hosting on the coast again, I will undoubtedly reach out to Pam. :)

Simply amazing

Pamela helped me design my perfect wedding cake and her knowledge on flower types gave me even more ideas for the best outcome. She was so helpful from start to finish and was available for any and all questions I had.

LOVED my cake!!

Pamela absolutely blew me away with the wedding cake she created for my wedding! First off, the flowers were so intricately and beautifully done that it made my jaw drop! I couldn't believe how real they looked and many of my wedding guests were blown away too! We chose buttercream and vanilla and my mouth is watering thinking about it right now because it seriously melts in your mouth. Pamela was overall very professional and communicative with every detail on the cake. You can really tell she's passionate about her craft and it translates to her work. :)

Pam is amazing

From the first tasting we were impressed and excited to have her baking for our wedding. Her cakes are delicious and moist, and her specialty flowers are gorgeous and inspiring. Through the process she was open to all our ideas and communicated her advice openly and realistically so that we ended up with something practical and incredible. Thank you so much Pam especially your willingness to sculpt our animals in such a fun way. Everybody loved them and loved to eat the cake too. It was exactly what we wanted.

Beautiful done cake

PK’s Custom Cakes worked with my budget and by giving me everything I was looking for in a cake. Everyone loved the flavor, it wasn’t too sweet. The flowers were a perfect touch and beautiful made. Several guest were shocked to know the flowers were hand made. I highly recommend her. I will be order a birthday cake from her soon.
