Sweet Lauren Cakes and Wedding Paper Divas Team Up!

March 21, 2013 by Lauren

Well it’s no surprise that we love all things wedding at Sweet Lauren Cakes! So when Wedding Paper Divas contacted us for a collaboration, we squealed and jumped up and down and then said yes right away!

Many times, we have brides come to us unsure of how they’d like the cake pops to look for their wedding. While we’re happy to show them images from all of our past weddings and make suggestions, our favorite is when we get to completely customize them for that particular couple’s special day! One of the best ways to do this is by taking the invitation suite or colors and drawing inspiration from those designs. Since the invitation or save the date will be your guests’ first look into your special day, it’s a great way to set the tone. Reminding your guests of that initial impression with cake pops echoing the same designs at your reception, are a fabulous and yummy way to pull it all together!

The same could go for any event, birthday parties, baby showers, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, etc. We can match any custom invite!

We chose four different beautiful and gorgeous designs from Wedding Paper Divas seriously humongous selection to inspire these cake pop designs below. Enjoy!

Gluten-Free Cake Pops Now Available!

August 28, 2012 by Lauren

While we’ve not been writing blog posts (oops!), we’ve been super duper busy creating new gluten-free recipes for all of our flavors! (Red Velvet, Cinnamon Chocolate, Vanilla Bean, Lemon, Coconut, Caramel, Peanut Butter, Chocolate Hazelnut, Chocolate Mint, Gingerbread, and Brown Butter Pumpkin)

Having a sister with a gluten allergy, our owner, Lauren knows how hard it is to find yummy treats that are safe to eat. And we don’t want anyone to have to go without eating a cake pop! So she sought out to make the most delicious gluten-free cake pops around. We hope you’ll enjoy this new addition to our menu!

Cake Pops Featured on Style Me Pretty

May 8, 2012 by Lauren

Isn’t Style Me Pretty just a total swoon-fest??? We could get sucked into looking at gorgeous weddings for hours on their site. We’ve been so excited to have our cake pops be featured there a few times now and are anxiously checking daily to see if another one of our sweet brides’ special day has made the coveted pages of SMP. In March, we were giddy because we were featured once again with the following surprise wedding!

Back in December we were contacted by Jacin of Lovely Little Details for an order of cake pops for a surprise New Years Eve wedding. We loved the idea of surprising all of your family and friends that instead of attending your engagement party, they’d be witness to your very special nuptials that day. Peach, mint and gold glitter were the colors of the day. And with all of that shiny gold, the photos from the happy bride and groom’s day taken by Flory Photo came out with such a warm lovely glow, enjoy!

Cake Pop display for launch of Today’s Bride newest issue!

April 26, 2012 by Lauren

Back in March we created a shiny, glamorous, yet industrial and funky display for an “Industrial Glam” themed party to celebrate the newest issue of Today’s Bride. Flawlessly coordinated by MB Wedding Designs and Events, the event was over on Treasure Island at the Winery SF and our whole team (all four of us!), got all dressed up and trekked over for a night of drinks and cuisine by Thomas John Events, dancing, even a photobooth!

We had so much fun planning and building this display that we’ve now officially added dessert displays to our repertoire! We’ve created quite a few over the past couple of years and have a blast doing them! I’ll be sharing some of those with you soon too. See below for some images from the event captured by our friend and phenomenal photographer Michele Beckwith.

Introducing… Pie Pops!!!

April 16, 2012 by Lauren

For the past few months we’ve been testing recipes, shapes, and flavors for our newest product, pie pops! It has been so hard to keep it a secret from you, especially when very talented photographer Michele Beckwith came over for a photoshoot. As you’ll see, the shots she took are just gorgeous and we can’t wait to start accepting orders for these tasty little bites of pie! Flavors include decadent Chocolate, classic Apple Cinnamon, Strawberry Rhubarb, Blueberry-Blackberry, Cherry, Peach, and even Pecan (fruit pies subject to seasonal availability.) Our owner, Lauren, even used her grandmother’s classic pie crust recipe! Ingredients are all natural and we’ve also tried to use organic and local ingredients where we’re able. Orders can be placed through our inquiry form on the website. Available for pick up or deliveries within the Bay Area.
