About Me

Hi, I'm Vedika and I make cakes of the veg(etari)an variety.
No eggs, no honey, no gelatin, and I'll also keep the dairy out for my vegan and lactose-intolerant friends.

Come see us at... 7th Annual Sweet Charity Confectionery Fashion Show
Another sugar-decorated dress with Renee Masoomian
