We are the home of the famous Swiss Black Forest, which is three layers of moist chocolate cake, a filling of our home made chocolate mousse, a filling of our real whipped cream, which will also ice the cake topping it with milk chocolate shavings all over it.



What got you interested in the catering/ bakery industry and what is the most rewarding part of your job?

We really enjoy being part of our customer’s special day, such as a wedding in which for years guests still remember the amazing cake they have experienced.

That is the best feeling and our personal reward.



If you weren’t working with food and catering, what would you be doing?

We would still be here (LAUGH) because our family goes back in generations of bakers, even when we still have college education, this is a call not a career.




What is your favorite part about catering the dessert for weddings?

We make a little girl’s dream come true, years later when she becomes a bride.

We take pride in our name and quality and we want our name out there word to mouth. This happens at the wedding cake cutting. Every guest looks forward to this moment, we deliver, we do not disappoint.
