Catching up

It's been more than a month since I updated this page. Where did the time go? I know, we have been very busy caking!
We have been busy with confirmation/communion cakes, first birthday cakes, and most recently, the 10th anniversary cake of the Brampton Fire/Life Safety Education Centre in Brampton. It was such an honour for Essence Cakes to have been chosen to make the cake. We got very positive reviews and even got a visit from two personnel from the centre to say 'thank  you". More about this order in an upcoming post.
Here are pics of some of the cakes that have kept us very busy. Thank  you to all our clients. We appreciate your support.
