Jessica is an amazing mistress of cakes – from classical to sculptural, her cakes are unique and elegantly crafted. Jessica’s Cakes is a boutique cake shop that enjoys creating the traditional or classic look, but delights in unexpected design requests.

A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, Poughkeepsie, NY, Jessica originally thought she would be on a career path to executive chef. At the Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel, after a serendipitous transfer from hot line to pastry shop (instead of the butcher shop), she fell in love with the sweet side of life and tossed all thoughts of a savory career out the window.

Jessica’s Cakes was launched in 2000 after more than a decade working as a pastry chef in several Ritz Carlton hotels around the country, as well as The Minikahda Club and New French Bakery locally. Classically trained from her years with The Ritz Carlton, she is experienced in creating elegant, traditional cakes and small desserts. Today her eclectic style also includes quirky tip-tilt designs, random themes of food and clothing, and out-of-the-ordinary flavor combinations. No event is too small, and she’ll travel if you ask.
