About Shimmer & Sugar

Hi, I'm Ava!

I love baking — especially when it's for someone I know. Figuring out your favorite colors or your favorite character and turning them into cookies or a cake is my favorite part. That's why I only bake when someone asks!

"If I don't know who it's for, I can't bake it right!" — Ava

What I make

Four kinds of sweet — tell me what you're picturing, and I'll bake it.

Cookies

Decorated cookies for parties, gifts, or just because. Pick your colors and I'll make it happen.

By the dozen

Cupcakes

Cupcakes are perfect for parties, playdates, or anytime you need a treat everyone can grab and enjoy.

Great for groups

Birthday cakes

Birthday cakes built around you — your favorite colors, your favorite characters, or whatever makes your day feel special.

Any age!

Special event cakes

Bigger cakes for bigger days — family parties, celebrations, or anything extra special.

Ask early!

Ava nailed my son's favorite dinosaur on his cake — he couldn't stop smiling!
