Not every hero wears a cape

Not every hero wears a cape—some wear aprons, wield offset spatulas, and battle buttercream at dawn.

Welcome to the magical (and mildly chaotic) world behind the scenes at Queen of Cakes, where sugar is our paint, cake is our canvas, and the clock is always ticking. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to create edible art fit for a royal feast—buckle up. These are our real-life cake adventures.

👑 The Great Fondant Fiasco of A Friday Night

Picture this: it’s 10:47 p.m. The bakery is glowing, soft music playing, and a wedding cake is 80% complete. Enter: humidity—fondant’s worst enemy and our sworn nemesis.

Suddenly, the elegant drapes we spent hours smoothing begin to wrinkle like a ballgown in a rainstorm. What followed was a cinematic montage of cornstarch clouds, emergency fans, and a decorator reciting motivational quotes to a four-tier cake. (Spoiler: we won.)

💡 Pro tip: Every great cake story begins with a minor weather-related crisis.
