About
Everything I bake is made from scratch with the finest ingredients. As a one-person business with over 14 years in pastry and cake making, I personally design and create every cake, cupcake, cake pop, and dessert table.
I pride myself on competitive pricing, excellent customer service, and desserts that taste as beautiful as they look. Whether it’s a wedding cake or a full dessert table, my goal is to make your special day exactly what you imagined.
Seeing the joy on my clients’ faces when they see and taste their desserts is what inspires me. If you’re looking for a personalized, made-from-scratch experience, I’d love to help bring your vision to life.

The cake was so good and moist. Will definitely use this company again. Great job! My guest was so disappointed it ran out and everyone did not get a piece.

cannot thank Wanna’s Cakes enough for the incredible job they did on my son’s race car–themed birthday cake! 🎂🏎️ From the very first look, it completely exceeded my expectations. The detailing was spot-on…vibrant colors, realistic design, and so much creativity put into every inch. Most importantly, my son’s face lit up the moment he saw it — it was the highlight of his birthday!
Not only was the cake a showstopper in looks, but it tasted absolutely amazing too — moist, flavorful, and simply perfect. Wanna’s Cakes truly went above and beyond to bring our vision to life, and I couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking for a cake that combines artistry with incredible flavor, look no further. Highly, highly recommend!

Ordered a Barbie cake for the party and it was not only visually stunning but also a true centerpiece for the celebration. The design captured the essence of Barbie perfectly—elegant, colorful, and detailed with careful craftsmanship.
The dress-shaped frosting was smooth and vibrant, making it almost too pretty to cut into. Shawanna nailed it and made a replica of the picture that was wanted. Kids were thrilled and the adults appreciated the balance of flavor.
