Sweet Ash Cakes

As a baker who prides herself on the old fashioned taste, I found Sweet Ash Cakes to taste similar to mine if not better.  The cakes are moist like they just came out the oven and are baked with natural ingredients- no short cuts.  I've had two cakes made by Ashley and Chanel to celebrate a birthday and a graduation.  I will share the pictures with you so you can also see the great work!

Meet the founder of Sweet Ash Cakes

Ashley Johnson

I have been in the kitchen baking since the tender age of seven. My grandmother showed me how to whip up a five flavor pound cake from scratch, and I have taken what she has shown me and expanded upon it. I enjoy baking! My most favorite part of the process is the creative design that goes into the cakes and cupakes when they come out of the oven. I love transforming the baked goods into mini works of art.
