The cakes
Every one of these was somebody’s order. Yours would be next.
Every photograph on this page is your own, taken from your Facebook page. Send us more and they go on. Tell us to take any of them off and they come off.
What we make
Buttercream, drip and fondant work. One tier or several. Number and letter cakes, themed cakes for the kids, and personal size cakes for when it is only ever going to be two of you.
Tiered cakes for the day itself, worked out with you before anything gets baked.
Made in the flavours we run: strawberry, chocolate, lemon, blueberry, Nutella and piña colada.
Royal icing on shortbread, cut and iced to whatever the party is about.
The whole table dressed: cupcakes, brownies, chocolate covered strawberries, cookies and the cake in the middle of it.
Apple, pecan, pumpkin and cherry. Once a year, orders taken ahead of the holiday.
Vanilla and marble are the standing pair. The rest come and go with the season and the order.
[YOUR FULL FLAVOUR LIST] These are the flavours you have named publicly, so they are the only ones on the page. Send us the rest and this list grows the same day.
The kitchen
A local pastry chef with a dream.
That has been the line on our Facebook page since the beginning, and it is still the shortest true description of the place. One kitchen in Corpus Christi, one order at a time, since 2017.
[ABOUT CAKES & BAKES, IN YOUR OWN WORDS]
This is the paragraph customers read before they trust you with a birthday. How you started, what you love making, why you keep doing it. Write it however you like and we set it here.
If you would rather not write, tell us three or four plain facts on the phone and we will draft it for you to approve. Nothing goes on this page that you have not said.
How it works
The occasion, roughly how many people, and the flavours and colours you have in mind. A photograph of a cake you like says more than a paragraph.
By email, with what we can do for you. Anything you want changed gets changed then, while it is all still on paper.
Made and decorated for your order, and pickup gets arranged with you.
Before you order
Nothing here sits on a shelf waiting for a buyer. Each cake is baked and decorated for the order it belongs to.
Allergies, swaps, anything that has to stay out. Egg free cakes have been made in this kitchen before, so ask.
A photo of a cake you like, a colour off an invitation, a screenshot from your phone. All of it helps and none of it is a bother.
Cakes, cookies, macarons, strawberries, cupcakes, brownies, a whole dessert table. If it belongs at the end of a meal, ask.
[WHAT YOUR CUSTOMERS SAY]
We do not write reviews, and we never will. This is where yours go, set as a designed section with the customer’s name under each one.
Send us the ones you want shown, from Facebook or anywhere else, and they are on the page the same day.
Request a cake
Fill this in and it lands in the Cakes & Bakes inbox. It is a request, not an order: nothing is booked until you hear back.
We’ll confirm your request by email.

[PHONE NUMBER]
We could not find one published anywhere. Send us the number you want customers to use and it goes here, as a button that dials it on a phone.
[BEFORE ORDERING]
How much notice you need, whether you take a deposit, how pickup works, anything you find yourself typing out over and over. Tell us once and it lives here.
We designed this custom website for your business. It was built from what is already public: your Facebook page, your Instagram profile and your own links page.
Every photograph on it is yours, taken from the photo grid on your Facebook page. There is no stock photography anywhere on this site. Send us more and they go on; tell us to take any of them off and they come off.
There are no prices on the page. The ones you have posted are from 2019 to 2022, and old prices cost more than they earn. Send us the current ones and they go on, or leave the page as it is and quote each order yourself.
There is no phone number and no street address on the page, because neither is published anywhere we could find. The page says Corpus Christi and stops there.
We could not find a Google listing for Cakes & Bakes anywhere, so nothing on this page quotes a rating or a review. The Facebook recommendations are the only ones that exist, and we did not put a number on the page without the words behind it.
Anywhere the page shows a dashed box, that is a place waiting for something only you can give us. Nothing in any of them is a claim yet.
