Zell's Cottage Bakery

My love for baking started at an early age...as soon as I could drag a chair over to "help" my mom in the kitchen... measuring and pouring, piping, and eventually learning to make buttercream roses.  However, it wasn't until my children were born that I started creating edible art.  What began as just birthday cakes for my boys quickly became cakes for friends, and soon their friends.  And before long, I was a hobby baker wanting to go pro.  That was the birth of "Sweet Dreams Cakery".  Though cute and sweet, the name didn't quite feel right.  

My favorite reactions are those of pure shock when people are in disbelief that my creations are edible!  Every cake is a new feat and I pride myself on making my customer's days extraordinary.  I've been told that I feed the heart and soul from my kitchen.  I sincerely thank the two most influential women of my life, my mom, Phyllis, and my grandma, Zell, for their inspirations and building the foundation of my Southern Roots and the true inspiration behind

Zell's Cottage.

While I have a very artistic approach in my cake design,  I am well known in the area for crazy and out of the box cupcake flavors.  I have created everything from Smoked Salmon, Peanut Butter & Jelly, The "Elvis" with PB, Banana & Bacon, to Blue Cheese & Fig, Rainbow Nerds and Buttered Popcorn cupcakes.  I like to have fun with flavors and give my clients a chance to experience a different take on desserts.
