    Ruby's cupcakes are so delicious! For our wedding we didn't want to do a cake so we really wanted unique, gourmet cupcakes different from the normal plain flavor options. We chose Cookie Latte, Vanilla Cocoa, and Raspberry Chocolate. So delicious - we've been enjoying them for weeks after the wedding as well with our leftovers. Ruby even delivers and sets up the cupcakes so you don't have to worry about a thing!

  • My Favorite Part - Ruby Did Not Disappoint!!

    Working with Salt And Light Pastry Co. was a delight from start to finish. Ruby, the owner, was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and responsive throughout the entire process. She worked closely with us to create a truly delightful and delicious wedding cake that was the perfect blend of both the bride and groom's favorites. When we realized we needed a cake stand and cutting set a month before the wedding, Ruby was quick to rent us hers for the big day. The end result was a whimsical and beautifully crafted "Pistachio Cake with Earl Grey Buttercream Frosting and Blackberry Jam" cake that was delivered on time, and we're grateful to have some leftover slices in the freezer - it's so good! We highly recommend Salt And Light Pastry Co. for any couple looking for an amazing wedding cake experience.

    I’ve ordered from Salt & Light on several occasions and can always count on two things: everything will look amazing and taste even better.

    Ruby is the best!! From the initial email, to a very easy, nice and flowy conversation about my very loose ideas, she took those random ideas and made me some beautiful taste cakes, the one we landed on was carrot cake with an horchata mousse in between layers (to honor my mexican heritage and cause horchata is my favorite) with a cream cheese frosting. The day of the wedding the most stunning cake showed up, two tiers, semi naked cake, apart from it being beautiful it was delicious! Such a huge fan of Ruby and all of her delicious creations, hire her, you won’t regret it!
