    “Edible Art Bakery & Dessert Cafe was a dream to work with for our wedding desserts. They were kind and professional throughout the entire process, making the experience of choosing flavors so easy. The cupcakes and cake we ordered from them were absolute perfection - the flavors were delectable and they looked so wonderful! They simplified the process from tasting to speaking with a representative to make sure we covered everything and thought through the flavor profiles. We were thrilled with the quality and value of their work, and our guests raved about how amazing the desserts were. Edible Art Bakery exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend them for any couple's wedding day.”

    I am Deseree, owner/baker of Sweet Haven. I am a self-taught baker and have been baking for as long as I can remember. I'm a don’t skip dessert after dinner, give me anything sweet and chocolate, kind of girl. While I have always loved all things sweet, my true passion sparked when my son was born in 2018. I made a point to make everything from scratch and wanted to plan and bake for his first birthday. His desserts and cake for his special day went off without a hitch, and from that point on I have been baking and decorating ever since. I love being able to add something sweet to some of life’s biggest celebrations.

    Mama Bird’s Ice Cream 
    Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
    • Starts at $4 per serving
    • Serves Raleigh, NC

    What started as an experiment in flavor, quickly evolved into a community-wide obsession for making the best quality ice cream for anyone who walked in our door. From the kitchen counter to the farmers market and beyond our dedication to unique flavors crafted from premium ingredients and passion for pleasing has brought Mama Bird’s to where we are today. Our name, Mama Bird’s, is rooted in our past and a nod to our first taste testers – our daughters, “Mama” for Averi, and “Bird” for Taylor. Since then, we’ve gained countless other taste testers and they all agree, this is how ice cream is supposed to be made.

    “We hired Mama Birds for our wedding and it was such a hit! The ice cream cart was such a fun addition to our reception and our guests loved the variety of flavors and options (pops, scoops, sandwiches). It was really easy to work with the team in advance of the day- communication was timely and professional, and they gave some great advice when we were trying to narrow down our selections. Would absolutely recommend!”

All while trying to balance this crazy blessing of a business with my life outside of being an entrepreneur. Want to know a little more? I was raised in very rural Eastern NC.

    “Vanilla Bean Bake Shoppe made our wedding dessert experience seamless from start to finish. They responded to our inquiries right away, which made the planning process so easy and stress-free. The cake they created for us was stunning—the design was exactly what we wanted, and the flavor did not disappoint. We loved that they hand-delivered everything to our reception hall, which took one more thing off our plate on the big day. Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious the cake was! We would absolutely recommend Vanilla Bean Bake Shoppe to any couple looking for a bakery that cares about both beauty and taste.”
