We have new baker in studio and we are so excited to tell you all about them! Drum roll please… Artista Cakes!

Artista Cakes truly does the most stunning cakes.  Each cake looks like a masterpiece (see for yourself from the pictures below).

““I know that when I create a cake, I am creating something much more.  Wedding and event cakes are centerpiece at the wedding reception.  They are permanently affixed to our memories when we look back on our wedding photos.  Cakes are much more than desserts to me.  It is an art form and a way of life.  The art for me begins not only with a sketch of the cake design, but also with the ingredients.   I use only the best ingredients for each cake, such as pure vanilla bean, high quality chocolate, and only real butter.  Most of my recipes are my own, that I have personally developed over time. A cake should not only look amazing, but taste amazing as well.” – Artista Cakes

Tip :: Your cake tasting, design, and picking it out is probably one of the more fun things you get to do when planning your wedding.  When you sit down to do your tasting for your cake, your baker will bring a bunch of delicious sweet treats for you to try.  So make sure you have an empty belly for this portion of the wedding planning process!

So by now your mouth is probably watering thinking about tasting all these cakes? Well the best I can do is only share with you pictures and tell you all about Artista Cakes!

This wedding took place in the spring time in Asheville NC in 2013.  Yes it is a serious throwback!  Just goes to show how timeless this venue is.  With the beautiful chandeliers at the Grand Bohemian hotel and the gorgeous touches of floral through out the venue, this wedding was truly breathtaking.  The couple could not of had a more gorgeous day to celebrate their wedding on.  This wedding was also featured on Borrowed and Blue, and be sure to check out the pictures below to see what we are talking about!
