Combining a contemporary design style and a clean aesthetic with a menu of fresh-baked cakes using the finest ingredients, I aim to create the perfect centerpiece cake for your wedding reception - a sophisticated, edible work of art that incorporates the details of your day and creates cherished memories for years to come!
Classically beautiful or bright and fun - what style best suits you and your wedding day? Click below to see more examples of my work.
When I was in your shoes 8 years ago - that is, engaged - I was looking for my own perfect wedding cake. Unsure if I could trust someone else with my vision, I decided to create my own.
My adventure proved so successful that it grew into an all-consuming hobby. I spent the next several years developing delicious recipes, learning to craft delicate sugar flowers, and challenging myself to produce increasingly sophisticated work. Finally, I remembered why I started decorating cakes in the first place, and I knew what I had to do.
Today, I'm here for YOU. You've agonized over every detail of your wedding day, infusing the perfect blend of style and personality into this highly anticipated event. It's time to add the final touch to tie it all together - your wedding cake.

Let's be clear on one thing: Enticing Icing is not a bakery. I don't have a storefront, and I don't spend my days mass-producing dozens of generic cakes. Instead, I commit to a select few couples per weekend so I can focus my creative energy on creating stunning, memorable wedding cakes specifically for them. Like Jenna and Ajit's hand-piped henna cake celebrating Ajit's Indian heritage. Or Alexia and Nat's cake loaded with handmade sugar flowers to emphasize their secret garden wedding theme.
For me, that's what gives this work meaning. I'm not simply mixing butter and sugar - I'm helping you make memories of a wedding day you'll remember for the rest of your lives.
I love serving couples by providing a personalized cake design experience that isn’t possible with mass-production bakeries. If you resonate with any of the concepts below, let's talk!

Everything was AMAZING!! From the first meeting and taste test, to seeing and enjoying the cake on our wedding day, it was all perfect. Heather was so sweet and made sure that everything that we wanted came to life. We couldn't have imagined a better result.
Can I give 6 stars? Heather is THE BEST! From start to finish I knew we were in great hands. She truly cares about each of her clients and personalizes each of her cakes and experiences to the couple. Creative flavors, gorgeous work, and the best person to work with. One of my favorite wedding vendors - definitely recommend!!
Heather did a perfect job creating our wedding cake! From start to finish she was so professional, organized, creative and thoughtful! She by far gave us the best cake tasting experience (and we tried 7 different places in the Twin Cities metro area). The final design was lovely and the cake tasted amazing! I would recommend her to anyone.
Heather was great to work with right from the start. At the initial tasting, she worked with us on our vision for the perfect cake. She was responsive, proactive, and pleasant throughout the entire experience. The cake was both stunning and delicious; our guests are still talking about it. I had a big slice for breakfast the day after the wedding! Thanks Heather!
When we originally met with Heather, I warned her that I was not a dessert person. But when my husband and I took our first bite of cake at our wedding, it was even better than we remembered. Our guests cannot stop raving about how delicious it was. Heather - you turned me on to cake, and I am so so glad you were part of our special day. I cannot thank you enough!
Enticing Icing was amazing to work with. Heather's sugar flowers are out of this world and her cake is delicious. She was extremely professional and accommodating, including altering the cake design several times and making one tier of our cake dairy-free. Would highly recommend working with her!
It was exactly what I envisioned - a total show-stopper and centerpiece as our guests entered the venue. Overall, time and time again I would recommend Heather. If you're looking for delicious cake, unique designs tailored to your event and within your wildest dreams, an absolute sweetheart to work with and stress-free, she's your go-to gal.
We taste tested 3 different vendors and hands down this was the best cake. The strawberry lemonade cake was simply amazing. Heather was able to work with the design I had in my head and make it into a reality. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Heather was very easy to work with and very professional. She made sure to hear exactly what we envisioned for our wedding cakes. The cake shooters were adorable, and everyone loved them!
Heather's specialty is gorgeous fondant designs, but we wanted something simple and elegant, and she executed perfectly. Plus, even though we did multiple tastings with some of the top-rated vendors in the area, Heather's cake was BY FAR the tastiest- rich, dense, creamy, moist. It was perfection. Our guests raved.

I love meeting with couples who are drawn to my design style and are excited to get started on their own dream wedding cake!
Your private wedding cake tasting is designed to be a fun and relaxed atmosphere for you to sample my cakes, explore design possibilities, and get a feel for what it will be like to work together.
Enticing Icing wedding cake tastings
We'll start with the obvious: You'll sample a selection of my most popular wedding cake flavors and choose the perfect combination for your special day.
At my studio, I bake all of my cakes fresh (never frozen!) and from scratch using the highest quality ingredients. All cakes feature my signature Swiss Meringue buttercream, a light and silky frosting that has proven to surprise and delight even the harshest cake critics!

Next, we'll generate ideas for your wedding cake design by discussing the colors, styles, and themes that will be present at your wedding.
You're welcome to bring anything that you may want incorporated into your cake design - color swatches, stationery, a custom wedding monogram, etc. It's helpful for me to soak in the elements of your wedding design. That way, I can see the styles and themes that you're drawn to and make suggestions for your cake design that are appropriate to your taste and wedding style.
Finally, we'll develop a concept sketch so you can begin to see your cake take form! You can see here a few of my favorite "sketch to sugar" comparisons.
A cake from Enticing Icing represents elegant craftsmanship and sugar artistry, thousands of hours of experience, and a highly personal level of service to my clients. It's a piece of art that will act as a focal point, a conversation piece, and a memorable aspect of your event that guests will be talking about long after your wedding day. You won't be disappointed!
My 2018 pricing guidelines are shared below for reference. However, since your design will be uniquely customized to suit your preferences, needs, and your wedding style, please note that final pricing will be determined following your tasting and design consultation.
Average pricing is between $8-12 per serving and varies according to size and style.
Centerpiece cakes of 1-2 tiers with additional servings for your guests start at $5 per serving.
To reserve your wedding cake, I require a $500 non-refundable deposit and a signed contract. Please note that in order to provide a high quality of service to my clients, I can only accept 1-3 wedding cakes per weekend. Dates are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis, so don't delay!
