Very Hungry Caterpillar
A few weeks ago, we had a customer come into the store looking to get a baby shower cake. They wanted something special and had a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme in mind. Specifically, the new little guy's bedroom was to be decorated with the Very Hungry Caterpillar set from Pottery Barn Kids:
See? How cute! We took the colors from this bedding set and made a truly adorable and memorable cake! Take a look and let us know what you think!
**This is considered a "Custom" Cake and we would need a minimum of 2 weeks notice**

Meet Cris!
Meet Cris
Name: Cris Jimenez
Hometown: I am originally from Worcester, MA.
Education: I attended Le Cordon Bleu for Pastry and
Baking
What does your job
consist of? Here at Dessert Works I
work in the cake department. I help with
all aspects of filling and decorating cakes.
How did you end up at
Dessert Works? After graduating from
Le Cordon Bleu, I was looking for a job that I would love. I heard about Dessert Works from a friend who
just so happened to work at DW. I
applied and have been here happily ever since.
What is your favorite
item we have at Dessert Works? It’s
hard to pick just one, but I was able to narrow it down to 3: the Carrot Cake,
Three Berry Gallette, and the Ripe Red Raspberry cake!
What is your favorite
part of your job? My favorite part
of working at Dessert Works is being able to do what I love for work every
day. Another part I love is all of the
new friends I have made while working here.

How to customize a standard cake
It is a few days before your loved ones birthday or anniversary and you want to give them a beautiful cake, that will not break the bank. At Dessert Works we have the answer: wedding design work. These unique patterns are created by our decorators and are a cost effective way to customize your cake. The best thing is many of our design works can be added to next day cakes. Take a peek at our galleries or come in and see how wedding design work adds character and elegance to any cake.
