Order Your Cake

Crosthwaite Custom Cakes

A cake should feel like the celebration did — joyful, personal, and entirely yours.

Every cake I make starts with you: your occasion, your flavors, your story. Whether it's a towering wedding cake or a cozy birthday sheet cake, each one is baked to order and hand-designed from scratch. No two are ever the same, and that's exactly the point.

“Outrageously delicious, beautiful, and unique desserts! Sarah baked not only our daughter's wedding cake, but also did a dessert bar along with it. I cannot say enough about how easy she is to work with. Sarah is a true gem.”

About

Hi, I'm Sarah.

I started Crosthwaite Custom Cakes from my kitchen here in the San Diego area more than fifteen years ago, and I've been hand-making cakes for life's biggest moments ever since. Every cake is baked to order and designed around you — your flavors, your occasion, your vision.

I believe the best cakes are the ones that taste as beautiful as they look. My focus is always on real ingredients, balanced flavors, and designs that feel personal rather than generic. No two cakes are ever the same, and that's exactly the point.
