Thank You for All Your Support


It is that time of year to look back and count our blessings.
Here, at Essence Cakes, we wish to thank everyone for their support. We thank those who came in to place orders, those who just stopped to see what the place was about, and those who supported us with prayers and donations. Did I say donations? Yes, donations. One beautiful Saturday, a lady walked into the bake shop with 3 sets of baking pans in hand. She handed them over to me and said: This is for you. Why? I asked.  Why are you giving these to me?
She said: I just feel like it. This is a gesture of my support of your bake shop. 
Needless to say, I was stunned. I was not expecting that act of kindness from a stranger. Thank you, Coleen. God bless you and yours.
We thank our customers who have actively campaigned for us by telling others about Essence Cakes. We thank you all for your continued patronage and referrals. May all your wishes come true. We must also thank those clients who found the time to give us feedback on their orders. We take every thing you tell us to heart.
Thank you to those who are sending prayers our way; those who come in and say words of encouragement that keep us going - from your lips to God's ears.
We also want to thank those organizations that allowed us to be a part of their events. We were honoured to have participated.
Thank you one and all. Your support is appreciated. We look forward to being a part of your event in 2013!
We wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

  1. First, we made the black batter
  2. Baked the cake and cupcakes. They looked dark brown when they came out of the oven



3. Placed cake and cupcakes in boxes. Darkened as they cooled.


4. Frosted cake and cupcakes

Silver Patron Tequila bottle cake

We made this cake for a client, Alisa, who was kind enough to bring a bottle of this drink (empty. of course) to the bake shop to help us with the carving.
Alisa was quite thrilled with what we did. Here is the pic.
