Big News!

I have relocated to the beautiful Coachella Valley where I will be making wedding cakes through May 2022 then I am off to Suncadia in Cle Elum, WA. I will be accepting wedding cake orders in Central Washington for the period of June 2022 through October 2022.

The Last Bite is a boutique bakery that specializes in European wedding cakes. Krissie knows that wedding cakes can get a bad rap prioritizing decor over flavor. That’s why we believe in wedding cakes that are both sophisticated works of art and exceptionally-delicious desserts, accompanied by exemplary service at every step. Specializing in European-style wedding cakes for 22 years, Krissie is passionate about bringing wedding dreams to life through custom-designed, handcrafted wedding cakes. Your wedding cake will be one of your final memories from this momentous celebration – shouldn’t it be unforgettable from the first look to the last bite?

The Cake:

• Use only the highest quality ingredients that are organic, sustainable, and locally sourced whenever possible

• Unlike traditional wedding cakes, ours are composed in the European-style with a dozen layers per tier - creating a remarkably moist and flavorful cake defined by its exceptional ingredients instead of sweetness alone

• Gluten-free and other dietary restriction options available

Services Offered:

The Last Bite can make a variety of desserts for your wedding, including cakes, cookies, croquembouches, cupcakes, groom’s cakes, pastries, and even dessert buffets. They start each relationship with a consultation, to better understand your vision, as well as a tasting, to better understand your flavor preferences. They use high-quality organic, sustainably farmed, and locally sourced ingredients as much as possible, and have gluten-free, nut-free, and vegan options readily available for those with dietary restrictions. On the day of your wedding, they will deliver and set up your delectable dessert, along with a cake stand if necessary. After your wedding, they are happy to provide an anniversary cake to remind you of the joyous occasion.

Tiered cake pricing begins at $14 per person and sheet cakes begin at $10 per person
