But first, let’s pop the champagne before digging into this 30” Mille-feuille! A Mille-feuille is an Italian dessert made with pastry puff, pastry cream, and fresh berries like raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries! Fun fact, A & D chose this dessert because they surprised their guests with a wedding video upon entering the room sharing they had already eloped in Italy! Such a special and sweet moment! A wedding I will truly never forget. What made it even MORE special was getting to create it with the help of my cousin, @jessietowner @jessietowner_creativeme 🧡 Planning: @aisleandco 🧡 Photography: @folchicreative Venue: @lowerfieldcbus Florist: @prema_designs DJ: @joshstaleyproductions @dj_joshstaley . #millefeuille #columbusbaker #columbusbakery #columbusweddingvendor #columbusweddingcake #columbusweddingcakes #columbuswedding #columbusweddings

Easily one of my favorite designs from 2025 so far! I aimed for modern romance and, of course, the flowers (both anthurium and hydrangea) are made of edible wafer paper to match the flower arrangements at the wedding 🫶🏻 .

Hi friends! I thought I would re-introduce myself to all of the newcomers over the past year. Welcome!! I’m Allie, the face behind Ginger Cakes and Bakes! . When I tell you that I’m thinking about baking and art all day, every day, I truly mean it. Baking has been my passion since high school where it all started as my senior year project! . Family recipes, contemporary and impressionism art, nature, music, fashion, and of course, my clients, are what influence me the most! The best part of designing is playing with how I can cater my clients’ showpiece to be unique and personal to them, whether it’s by design, flavor, or dessert type. . A few things about me! . 1) My neighbors are guaranteed a weekly free window-view performance from myself of baking, singing, and dancing each weekend. I can’t concentrate without a good playlist to sing and dance to 🤷🏼‍♀️ . 2) I have a three legged greyhound named Elliot! 🐕 His life revolves around running in the backyard and being my 24/7 personal home security ❤️ . 3) Traveling abroad is a newfound love! Aruba ✔️Sweden ✔️ Costa Rica✔️! I vowed to travel one place domestically and internationally per year. . If you’ve made it this far, I appreciate you. Thank you for being here and supporting this big dream and journey of mine! . Sweetly, Allie of GC&B . 📸 - @carolinerosephotography 🧡

S’mores Ice Cream Cake Fail! . First time ever making an ice cream cake and the whipped cream was not in my favor 😆 This is a great example of why I don’t use it in my cakes for clients!! .

Old video but still a good one! Prepping, baking, filling, and stacking process! These videos are always so satisfying to watch. Anyone else feel the same?? . Note: This cake was made with real flowers, not with the edible wafer paper I only use now! . #cakereel #columbusweddingcakes #columbuswedding #columbusbaker #cakedecoratingreels

Every once in a while someone will tell me, “people just don’t have wedding cakes anymore.” I’m not here to tell anyone what to do for their wedding, but I will say most guests, and especially the parents and grandparents, look forward to a cake moment. . Think about it. Aside from kissing at the alter, cutting their wedding cake is likely the only other “live action” photo they have from their wedding day; the photo that will be passed on throughout generations! . Cake is tradition. Cake is sentimental. Cake is generational. Cake is for community. And, for many, cake is the ONE curated art piece they’ll ever purchase in their lifetime. . It’s worth the investment. . Sweetly, Allison . #columbuswedding #columbusweddings #columbusbaker #columbusweddingcakes #columbusweddingcake

Vintage Cakes: Also known as lambeth! Can you pick a favorite out of this group? . I’ve made my fair share of vintage cakes over the years!

This week marks the start of wedding season for GC&B! I can’t express enough how excited I am to get back in the kitchen full time for all of my wonderful couples this year! Here’s a sneak peak at what you can expect to see! . 1) What I like to call “Experiential Desserts.” Desserts like Mille feuille, tiramisu, long sheet cakes where to couples are involved in the decor! 2) Many two tiered beauties. 3) Of course, my signature wafer paper flowers! 4) More “fabric” and “movement.” 5) More classic lambeth piping. 6) Fruit as decor. 7) And more happy couples! . .
