I contacted Dina, on short notice, to make my daughter's 16th birthday cake. The cake was so beautiful and delicious. It was perfect for the Princess and the Frog theme, and most importantly, my daughter loved it. Thank you so much!

Dina was very cooperative when it came to the design and creation of the cake I wanted. She also helped me with the whole process when it came to the details, flavoring and sizing of the cake. The cake came out perfect, exactly how I had envisioned it, looks amazing and I can’t wait to show my girlfriend.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dina the caker. She made such a cute, amazing quality, delicious cake for my daughter’s 14th birthday. I could not have been happier and my daughter was thrilled, especially because Dina brought her dream/vision for the cake to life.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
A lot of time and money goes into making your delicious treats, that is why I require a non-refundable 50% deposit when you place your order with me. Final payment is due either one month or two weeks before the event date depending on the order and if I have to purchase supplies in advance. Thank you for understanding.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I ask several questions:
What’s size of a cake/cupcakes or how many? How many people does the dessert need to feed?
Do you have a design in mind? Any photos of what you want the dessert/cake to look like?
Do you need delivery or will you be picking up?
When is your event?
What flavor do you want?
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
San Diego Culinary Institute
I also have work experience at Sugar and Scribe Bakery and Flour Power Cakery.
