WELCOME FRIENDS:
Hello, my name is Shannon Powers, and I would love to make your sweet dreams come true! As a mother of 10 children, I learned by baking a lot of birthday cakes! My husband also has a major sweet tooth, so over the years I have been perfecting my technique to keep him satisfied! The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, so I've been told. I was even blessed to have my Grandma, an expert baker, come all the way from Wisconsin to train me in all she knows about pastry. I love to make my cakes and pies the way she does, the old-fashioned way. They sometimes take longer, but are always worth the effort!
It didn't take long for word to spread about my passion for cake design. I started making cakes and all kinds of goodies for all occassions, from weddings and baby showers to birthdays and other special events. It would be an honor to create an amazing dessert for your next special occasion!
I would love to make you the cake or dessert of your dreams. I especially love to make amazing birthday cakes for children, the more creative the better. My decorating styles run the gamut, from classic and traditional to whimsical sculptures of frosting and sugar.
Browse through my collections and image gallery to get a sense of what I can do, and we'll see what we can create together. I also offer cakepops, cupcakes, and mini desserts( think lemon meringue cutie pies) for all occassions, and just like my cakes, everything is custom made to fit your needs.
Cake is art to me, experienced through the senses of sight, smell, taste, and touch. I dream in cake. Thank you for visiting our site, and I hope to make your sweet dreams come true!
DREAMY CAKES
At Dreamy Sweets Pastries, one of our goals is to be able to make any flavor of cake and icing you can think of.
We specialize in all of the traditional favorites, with our Chocolate cakes and Carrot cakes "to die for." Also very popular is our Southern Red Velvet with Spiced Cream Cheese filling. Our latest favorites are the Pina Colada cakes, Key Lime cakes, and Coconut Cream cakes. And our German Chocolate cake is fantastic, with the best coconut-pecan frosting you will ever taste. All of our cakes are made fresh to order, using only the finest ingredients available. We are able to bake many of our cakes Gluten-Free, using rice flour instead of wheat. Also, we make the best vegan\eggless chocolate cake this side of Heaven.
Our fillings are made to order, using fresh fruit in season whenever possible. We reccomend the Italian Meringue Buttercream as our frosting of choice, as it is silky smooth, not overly sweet, and can be varied endlessly. We also offer traditional American Buttercream, French Buttercream (very rich, excellent as a filling ), Whipped Sweetened Cream, and Rolled Fondant. Non-Dairy/Vegan choices are also available.
