Planning Your Big Day
Signature Desserts is honored to be part of your wedding day! From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, our talented team creates custom-designed cakes that are baked fresh, never frozen, and crafted to look beautiful and taste amazing!
Where To Begin
Once your wedding date and venue are secured, it's time to think about the icing on the cake - your wedding cake! We recommend scheduling your complimentary, in-person tasting with our owner, Linda, about nine months before your wedding.
During your one-hour consultation, you'll discuss your vision, pricing and dessert options such as mini pastry tables or the famous Pittsburgh Cookie Table, all while enjoying a freshly baked 8" cake made just for you along with a sample platter of freshly baked cookies. You'll choose your batter and fillings from the list below. And speaking of cookies, you'll also receive a cookie sampler to enjoy during your visit with any leftovers neatly packed up to take home!
Tastings are limited to four attendees.
Flavors
Our Wedding Cakes are baked fresh for your wedding, not mass produced. Our wedding cakes are never frozen. We offer basic cake batters of Vanilla, Chocolate and Marble. Red Velvet and Carrot are also available upon request. Signature Desserts follows the European tradition of keeping simple flavors of cake combined with delicious high quality filling, which make the best tasting cakes. Each cake will be cut to three layers. The filling is nestled inside each of the layers. Therefore, the cake is considered a three layer cake.
