Awkward Pastry is a take-away dessert shop, mainly for pre-ordered custom cakes and desserts that are as creative and expressive as you are! From cakes to pies to catered dessert bars, we have a menu that rotates with the changing seasons. Have a favorite dessert that you can’t seem to find anywhere? Send us a note! We love creating Awkward versions of your favorites. Need something right friggin now? Shoot us a text or drop by! We usually have an extra cake or two in the case ready to go, as well as a fun treat-of-the-week to get you going!
“What Baker calls 'awkward' most of us would find whimsical, imaginative, perhaps even a little wild.”

Cake as a Canvas
Cake is my favorite medium for artistic expression. I look forward to building the cake of your dreams! Be sure to check out my Cake Portfolio for even more inspiration!
