To The Alternative Baker, choosing your wedding cake is a collaborative effort. Sit down and talk. Share your ideas about what pleases your eye and your palate. The custom-created cakes we bake are as varied and unique as the couples we serve and the broad palate of food palates we wish to please. Whether it is a special flavor or texture which you love or you have dietary restrictions (e.g., gluten-free, vegan, non-dairy), we strive not only to meet, but to exceed your dreams of the perfect wedding cake. We honor and serve couples from the broad spectrum of people making commitments to one another.
