About Sweet Bite

Sweet Bite is a home-based bakery that has grown out of my love of baking and desire to create edible art for family and friends. While I have found a niche making special occasion cakes for various celebrations including weddings, baby showers, and birthdays; I am happy to bake pies, pastries, and any other sweet or savory treat your heart desires. I love to try new recipes and challenge myself with fun designs. While my cakes are pretty to look at, I strive to make them taste even better using quality ingredients! I hope you enjoy reading my blog and seeing what new sweet treat I have created in my kitchen!

Happy 99th Birthday!

A friend asked me to make a cake for her father's 99th birthday and she left the design up to me. I get ideas from browsing the Internet. I wish I could dream up fantastic designs but that's just not how I work. I can however, find a design and duplicate it! Browsing the Internet for cake ideas to celebrate a man's 99th birthday returns many pictures of sheet cakes with lovely roses and other flowers made of frosting. Nothing was catching my eye. So, I changed my search to "modern birthday cakes". I found four designs I liked and let my friend pick her favorite. What a treat to make this cake for a dear man who has graced us with his presence for 99 years!  Happy Birthday, John O.!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Who doesn't remember The Very Hungry Caterpillar book?!?!  When a former co-worker asked me to make this cake for her daughter's 2nd birthday I was happy to take on the job.  The decorations are made with marzipan. I have found that it takes colors so much better than fondant and it tastes better. I hope the cake was enjoyed by all!
