Cakes by Katherine
Thank you for your interest in my cakes! I live in the St. John's region of Newfoundland & Labrador. I've always adored baking and became interested in cake decorating after having our first child. My love for it grew further when my mother in law gave me a complete set of decorating tools! I took four cake decorating courses and loved every class! All of my cakes and icings are made from scratch.
Please Note:
I am not accepting new cake orders, at this time, due to an increased workload in my regular job and a very busy evening schedule. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
