Where taste is never compromised

JCakes began as a one-woman operation within her home 16 Years ago. Since then, JCakes has grown to a full scale bakery through its reputation of delivering delicious, unforgettable cakes for weddings, birthdays and all special occasions.

It was always a lifelong dream of owner, Hope Looney, to create gorgeous, gourmet wedding cakes. After attending countless weddings in the U.S. and abroad, she was always disappointed with the stunning cakes that tasted mediocre. Her goal was to make cakes that taste as good as they look. A few career paths later, Hope's international travel, business background and passion for the pastry arts lead her to JCakes. Her favorite thing about JCakes is contributing to the celebration by collaborating with people to personalize each cake

Our Claim to Fame

Our customers rave about the uniqueness of our product. The look and taste of the product is what stands us apart. Every cake is made to order and decorated with fresh flowers and bows. They also rave about the taste and here are three reasons why: 1) CAKE - Using only the finest ingredients, JCakes begins with a freshly baked, moist cake that is never frozen. Never dry or dense, its light and fluffy texture leaves you feeling satisfied without feeling too full. 2) FILLING - The cake is then filled with homemade fillings (nothing comes pre-made from a tub). All Fruit fillings use fresh fruit, not a gelatinous pre-made fruit filling. From our most popular chocolate mousse and mixed berry fillings to a non-traditional Oreo mousse-- we can accommodate any taste bud. 3) FROSTING - Finally frosted with your choice of flavored buttercream or rich chocolate ganache. Our buttercream is a true French style, merengue based buttercream which is not overly sweet. It is extremely light and creamy using European style butter (no shortening!). JCakes prides itself on a memorable cake experience. Your dinner service should end on a high note with a wedding cake that leaves a positive, lasting impression with your guests. Your wedding cake will be talked about the next day.

Our Specialities

Our most popular wedding cake is a super moist, golden layer cake filled with white chocolate mousse and fresh mixed berries. It is frosted with our signature vanilla french buttercream. Our brides love this crowd-pleaser because it is very light and appeals to a large group of people.
