The Process
How your order comes together
01 — Share your vision

Send your date, event type, guest count, inspiration photos, and any flavor ideas you already have in mind.
02 — Stephanie designs & bakes
Made by hand
Your cake is designed around your event, baked from scratch, and finished entirely by hand — no shortcuts, no box mixes.
03 — Delivery & setup
Arrives ready
Your finished cake is hand-delivered across Northern Virginia and arrives set up and ready for the moment it was made to celebrate.
Weekend dates often book 4 to 6 weeks out, and weddings are best inquired about as early as possible.
Meet Stephanie
One artist, one set of hands, one standard
Cakes by Steph was built on a simple promise: the person whose name is on the cake is the person who makes it. Stephanie designs, bakes, and delivers every commission herself.
Trained under a Peruvian pastry master, she brings the same discipline and precision to alfajores and milhojitas as she does to wedding tiers and celebration cakes.
She works from Leesburg and serves clients across Loudoun County and Northern Virginia, accepting only a limited number of commissions each month to protect the quality and care behind every one.

Questions, answered
A few quick answers to the questions we're asked most.
How far in advance should I order?
Weekend dates often book 4 to 6 weeks ahead. For weddings and larger events, it's best to reach out as early as possible.
Do you offer tastings?
Yes. A private tasting is $55, and that amount is credited in full toward your order when you book.
Do you deliver?
Yes. Every order is hand-delivered and set up across Leesburg, Ashburn, Sterling, and the wider Northern Virginia area.
How is pricing determined?
Every commission is custom, so pricing reflects the size, servings, design, and level of detail. The simplest way to begin is to send your date, guest count, and inspiration.
