Owner
I’ve always had a passion for baking. From an easy bake oven to a stove as soon as I was tall enough to reach it, I baked for everyone and every excuse I could invent. But eventually I put my mixing bowls away and earned my business degree. It all changed the day I received a Kitchen Aid mixer! Shortly after, a friend dragged me to a cake decorating class. There was no going back. I fell hopelessly, madly in love with baking and all things sugar. Two years of culinary school, a husband, 3 kids and 14 years later, I'm living the dream by raising my family and making cakes for amazing clients.

In an age of mostly online communication, I was wanting to just pick up the phone and call vendors to actually speak to them (very old fashioned per my daughter, the bride). But when I read through the BakerMama website, I felt as though we had just had a great conversation. Her website was very informative and thorough and I loved that I got a feel for Thea herself, as well as her business. That led to the inquiry, then a tasting and in-person meeting, then the most beautiful and best tasting wedding cake that we’d ever had! I cannot recommend a BakerMama cake enough! Many of our guests went back for second servings, and some even thirds. Thea was so helpful and transparent. There were no surprises and she was the sweetest! We cannot wait for the next occasion to order another BakerMama cake!

Thea was a dream to work with! This is a vendor that you want to be a perfectionist, and she's just that in the BEST way. Still wish we would have done a groom's cake too because we know it would have been as stellar as our wedding cake.
Starting out, I was all over the place with my ideas because I wanted something unique, a bit of showstopper, but still classy. I threw so many design elements at her and she would walk me through each one with her personal opinion from her experience and capabilities via email and text.
Bakermama was also a quick problem solver two days before our wedding. I didn't love the platform she planned to use for the bottom, and she gave me several places of where I could find one, but ended up just using some wrapping paper and ribbon from her house to make it gold. She truly went the extra mile for us saving us an errand at such a busy time.
All in all, we absolutely loved our cake design and the taste. We didn't feel her cake tasting box was a good representation of her actual wedding cakes. So do not worry, she makes amazing tasting cakes!! Would absolutely recommend working with Bakermama. You'll love her and her cakes!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (6 Stars) Best Wedding Cake Ever!
Don't waste your time anywhere else. You will not get a better cake no matter what the price, and she is REASONABLE! Many of our guests, young and old, agreed that this was the best tasting cake, and cupcakes, they ever had.
In addition, they are works of art; beautiful textures, colors, and design. You will not be disappointed. Check out her portfolio: https://bakermama.com/portfolio
Thea is a treasure, easy to work with, flexible, and always with a spirit of excellence. Her sole desire is to please her customers.
By way, she did not ask us to write this review. As long as she is baking, we'll be still buying for personal occasions.
We love you Thea, and appreciate you!

Thea was the greatest vendor I could've chosen to work with on my wedding day. She stayed in contact with me throughout the whole process, never dropping the ball at any point. She is very professional yet personable and sweet, unlike any other vendor I've worked with. She helped me find the perfect cake combo for our special day, and everyone LOVED IT. I got so many comments on how good the cake was, and I'm so glad about it. She makes the best cakes around—trust me. When trying to figure out which design I wanted, she helped me narrow my options down, especially being transparent about pricing. I could not have been happier with my choice, thank you Thea!!!

Bakermama is amazing!! We wanted a cake with a unique flavor and when we tried Thea’s snickerdoodle, we knew she was the one to bake our wedding cake. Thea was easy to work with and made beautiful cakes. The grooms cake was a huge hit. We highly recommend working with Thea!

Thea was so wonderful to work with and made everything so easy and stress free! She did such a wonderful job on our wedding cake and grooms cake. Everyone at the wedding couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the grooms cake turned out. Not only were the cakes beautiful, every flavor was so delicious especially the chocolate cake with raspberry preserves. It was still delicious even a week after the wedding. I can’t recommend Thea enough for any kind of event if you want stunning and delicious cakes!

Thea was very communicative throughout the process to ensure our wedding cake was exactly what we pictured. She not only asked for inspo pictures of the cake, but the full vision board! The tasting box was amazing - it was hard for us to pick what we wanted. I appreciated her transparency about what realistically we needed for our size wedding, too. It was such a great process that she also did the desserts for our rehearsal party! We will absolutely use her for future celebrations.

Thea was the sweetest person to work with. I went into this knowing exactly what flavor I wanted but after tasting her samples, it was a tough decision. In the end she perfected the look and the taste that I imagined. She exchanged so many emails about how to achieve what I needed to have the cake design I wanted and enough cake for all attendees. Thea hit it out of the ball park!!! (We went with traditional New Orleans Wedding Cake flavor, almond cake with raspberry buttercream flavor)

Thea made my wedding cake, and it was fantastic! My goal was the best tasting cake possible, looks/decoration were secondary. She has so many flavors! My notes say, I heart cream cheese buttercream, so definitely give it a try! We went with champagne cake, champagne buttercream and lemon curd filling. I've never had champagne cake prior to trying cakes for my wedding. Thea really showed me how good of a flavor it could be when done right. She was so easy to work it, and I really appreciate her hard work in helping my wedding go off without a hitch!

Thea was easily one of the nicest, most genuine vendors we worked with for our wedding - and she's an incredible baker! While we ordered a fairly simple wedding cake (three tiers with white textured buttercream - still beautiful and most importantly, delicious) if you go to her website or Instagram, you can see for yourself how capable she is at executing any design! We ended up getting two different tasting boxes to make sure we tried everything we wanted, which was welcomed, and we must mention how good her almond cake and Italian cream are (one of our tier choices, of course!) Thea also graciously placed the flowers on our cake, a small detail that we definitely appreciated her handling, and was overall a joy to work with! Would highly recommend!

Thea the Bakermama is amazing! She baked our wedding & groom's cakes and brought our visions to life even better than we could imagine. Her bakes not only look amazing but also taste divine. Guests were raving about how delicious both cakes were. It was very easy to work with Thea during the planning process. She is a one-woman-show and does it all, so don't be afraid to double email. I would highly recommend Bakermama!

Thea at BakerMama Cakes is amazing! Not only is she a girl boss running her business but she does it extremely well! Her cakes, fillings, and frostings are made from scratch and are all delicious! Thea was there to walk us through all our questions, help us figure out how much cake we needed, and what cake/filling pairings she recommended. She executed our vision for our cake perfectly and I couldn’t recommend her more!

Thea was so sweet (pun not intended) to work with and has a fun personality that comes through in her work. We had a taste test party with her tasting box and loved almost everything in it! I am pretty discerning with both cake and icing, and she absolutely nailed it. She let us try one more flavor (which is how we ended up with red velvet) after we booked to make sure it was perfect. Her previous cakes all had the vibe I wanted, so I just sent her screenshots of my favorite designs, and she ran with it and it turned out beautiful and just perfect without much fuss at all. We got so many compliments on our cake, looks-wise and taste-wise. And she was also able to make gluten-free cupcakes to match for my MIL in place of the traditional groom’s cake. Highly recommend Thea for sure!

I have truly never had a better wedding cake than my own. My goodness, the flavors are all to die for. Thea is so sweet and was so easy to work with. My cake vision was brought to life with her design and it was absolutely gorgeous! So many of my guests have asked me for details about the cake because they were raving about it all night. I would definitely recommend hiring Bakermama! She is SO talented.

The cake and florals were the most important part of our wedding so I spent a long time tasting cakes and reviewing designs. Thea caught my eye on Instagram because her work is precise, clean and gorgeous!
The flavor of her cakes are just as amazing as her designs. She allowed us to taste test as many as we wanted throughout the year of planning and was extremity pleasant and fun to work with.
I will most defiantly use Bakermama for any future cake needs!

Bakermama was a delightful experience! We reached out 1-1.5 months before our wedding and received a quick, excited response. She strongly encouraged us to search through Pinterest, find some cakes we like, then meet her at her studio to receive a tasting box and go over cake details. Every interaction with her was encouraging and the meeting at her studio really helped us see what size cakes we wanted for our wedding. The tasting box threw us for a loop because every single flavor of cake and frosting was delicious. After the tasting, my partner and I changed our initial flavor plans which Bakermama gladly accommodated! The day of, she arrived early with the wedding cake and even made a second trip from her studio to deliver the backup cake separately! Everyone at the wedding remarked on how delicious and beautiful the cakes were. Any wedding - or event - would be enhanced by her wonderful cakes!

LOVED working with Thea! We wanted a very simple cake with flowers and she and our florist worked well together to make that happen and it looked marvelous. Beyond that, the cake was also delicious. We really liked that she also offered the separate cutting cakes that have a slightly lower price point and were the exact same quality as the bridal cake. Would definitely recommend her.

Thea was so wonderful to work with! When researching vendors for our wedding I had the hardest time finding a baker for our cake, customer service is important to me and I was not clicking with any other vendors but when I found her website I knew that she was the one for us! She’s is so sweet and created exactly what I wanted for our wedding cake. Not to mention it was delicious! We went with a few flavors but the snickerdoodle was our favorite. My husband and I cut our cake at the wedding and immediately went back for more after the first bite. Highly recommend using her for any of your baking needs and we hope to use her again for more events in our life!

I found Thea (Bakermama) after searching bakers at The Knot. I was originally skeptical to go with a one woman business but her cakes were so beautiful, I thought I would reach out. And I am so glad I did! Thea has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She stuck with us through two postponed weddings (thanks COVID) and could not be more understanding or compassionate. She was patient with me as I threw out idea after idea and ultimately made the most incredible wedding and groom's cake. Not only were the cake's beautiful, they tasted amazing. She offers so many different flavors and they were all delicious. So many people were asking me for her information after the wedding. Thank you Thea!

We received so many complements on design and taste. Thea was very sweet to me at her kitchen visit and her prices are super reasonable! Recommend to all!

The Bakermama (Thea) was an absolute joy to work with. Her cakes are delicious and she is very responsive by text, email, and on the knot. She answered the million questions that I had and was flexible as far as letting me do a last minute cake testing. I couldn't have asked her to do a better job because what she created for us was so beautiful and delicious! We received so many compliments. The flavors we chose were snickerdoodle (top tier), strawberry (middle tier), snickerdoodle (bottom tier) with cream cheese filling and vanilla frosting. She added our flowers and cake topper to the cake as well. She was also accommodating to the nut allergies we had for our guests as well! I would definitely recommend Thea for all of your cake needs. Check out her social media pages for pictures of her awesome work! Thank you Thea for everything!!

She is open to all kinds of ideas for designs and flavors and our cakes were even better than we thought they could be. We received so many compliments about them even weeks later! With so many constant changes due to the pandemic, Thea was very flexible and was willing to wait until much closer to the wedding date to finalize guest count so we could make sure to have the right amount of cake while still following the most current guidelines. She is an absolute dream to work with and I couldn't be more grateful to have worked with her!

Thea is not only wonderful as a person but as a EXTREMELY talented baker! My wedding cake was beautiful and exactly what I had envisioned. It also tasted incredible! I’m actually not the biggest cake person, but I believe I had seconds (maybe even snuck in a third)! Everyone was raving about the cake! People reached out even after the wedding to inquire about her! Bakermama creates the most beautiful cakes for a reasonable price and you can tell this isn’t just a business for her. She takes pride in her work and checks in on her clients. My husband and I got married back in July 2020 and we still talk about her cake! In fact, we were told that if we reached out for a one year anniversary, she could create our wedding cake for us two to enjoy! How sweet is that??
We now have welcomed our first baby into our family and for sure will be reaching out for all the special occasions life will continue to bring!

We went with a lemon and cream cheese filling and a triple chocolate with hazelnut filling -- both delicious. Not only was the cake amazing but Thea was great to work with. She always got back to us right away and worked with us when we had to re-schedule our wedding due to COVID. Seriously, book Bakermama NOW, you wont regret it!

Bakermama was the first tasting we did for our wedding cake and after trying 3-4 more places, Bakermama was clearly the BEST by far. The cake was perfectly moist and sweet. My husband is not huge on frosting but he LOVED the cream cheese frosting. We did three flavors: champagne vanilla, chocolate, and cookies and cream - cream cheese frosting on all. I know many guests got to try all three flavors! Bakermama perfectly executed the vision for the groom's cake and did a great job recreating his favorite teams logo. My mom also used Bakermama to make a cake for my bridal shower and that was amazing too. My one feedback would be there is room for improvement on communication - I know Thea gets many inquiries and has her hands full so I did have to resend the same email once or twice. However, Thea was very apologetic when one email got lost in the shuffle, and during the week of the wedding she texted me regarding delivery time etc. which I appreciated. I look forward to ordering a one year anniversary cake with Bakermama!

Bakermama is fantastic. My in-laws are very picky about their cakes, so we had to make sure that we delivered a truly awesome cake to everyone. Bakermama had great communication throughout the process, and was extremely helpful when I asked her a bunch of questions. Her flavors are so amazing that you will have a hard time deciding which flavors to pair with witch icings and fillings! Not only is the flavor delicious, but the cakes themselves are beautiful. Bakermama is truly talented. I have already had people ask me if they can order just a birthday cake from her because they want the flavor again! I believe every wedding couple should hire Bakermama as their baker.

She was patient with us thru the decision-making process - offering us innumerable choices, suggesting cost-cutting measures, and all the while letting us know that whatever we wanted/decided she would make it happen. The wedding cake was absolutely gorgeous and most of all it tasted delicious! She truly has a heart and a talent for making people's cake wishes come true! We couldn't be happier with Bakermama and would highly recommend her.

Bakermama is wonderful to work with! She made us a personalized wedding cake for our September 2020 wedding, however due to the pandemic, our plans changed and she was extremely easy to work with during that time. She made us a beautiful two tier small cake and decorated it perfectly with florals and the design. The cake flavors were delicious. I still get cravings of the snickerdoodle cake!! The cake tasting is wonderful- she prepared a small box of all the flavors we requested and frosting selections and we took it to a park for a picnic.

Bakermama's cakes are the best cakes I have ever tried! I am not a huge cake person but I could not help myself with her snicker doodle and pumpkin cakes. Plus her wedding cakes design was amazing! I sent her one picture of something that I really liked and she was able to make it come to life. Not only that but Thea was absolutely wonderful to work with! Thea was very quick to respond to messages and was wonderful to talk with at the initial meeting. She let us pick her brain to make sure we selected a cake that would be big enough for everyone attending our wedding and was very flexible with everything going on in the world right now. Bakermama was one of the best vendors to work with while planning a wedding and did amazing work!

Ladies and gentlemen, your search for a baker is over. Thea was in our top three most amazing vendors to work with. She truly helped guide our perfect wedding cake, giving us 2 different flavors and 3 different fillings...and it was AMAZING. Such a moist, luscious cake, and her recommendations were on point. I didn't even see any leftovers! I was planning from out of state, and never taste-tested anything, just went off of reviews, and you can trust these reviews. Her cakes are phenomenal, and I loved hearing some of her favorite flavor combinations. Now, onto the next reason to hire her. When she arrived, my flowers weren't delivered yet to decorate the cake. I felt bad and knew she had other deliveries, but she told me she could stick around for a bit longer and then literally asked me what I needed help with! This wonderful woman lovingly volunteered to help finish filling my bud vases and decorate the tables while I finished getting ready. I am still floored that she volunteered her time like that and was so sweet and supportive in the process. So if you want a great cake, PICK HER. If you also want a wonderful vendor who cares for her brides, PICK HER. Oh, and I'm still craving her cake 2 weeks later...

Thea was such a pleasure to work with! A friend used her for her wedding, and she had talked so much about how much she loved her cake I went straight to Bakermama once I got engaged. I picked up her sample box which was so much fun—literally every flavor she makes is amazing and it was hard to choose! She was quick to communicate, and we emailed back and forth to decide on cake size, decor, etc. On the wedding day, she arrived right on time and arranged the flowers for the cake and added the topper. It was perfect and SO yummy! I couldn't eat much on the wedding day, but when I got to the cake I managed to get the entire slice eaten haha. I'd highly recommend her!

A member of our wedding party tested positive for COVID-19 two days before our ceremony, and the contact risk for other wedding party members basically cancelled our entire day. Our church could not allow us to proceed with our ceremony due to the fact that we could potentially be risking the health of church staff and members the following day during service (and we didn't want to do that, either). Rather than have a rehearsal dinner, everyone was frantically trying to figure out how/when/where we could have a small outdoor ceremony instead. It did not occur to me until around 10 that night that we didn't need such a large cake if only a few family members were going to be present. I sent Thea an urgent email, only to discover that all along she had been planning my cake for the wrong date because I sent a TYPO in my first email to her. By the grace of God, she checked her messages that night (which she said she never does) and called me immediately. I had resigned myself to everything being off for my ceremony. She patiently listened to me cry about my day falling apart and was so encouraging, and reminded me that the big party is actually such a small part of the celebration, that it's the marriage that matters. Her words were honey to my aching heart and she started baking as soon as we got off the phone to create our altered vision for our cakes. They were absolutely perfect, and I will recommend her to all of my future bride friends.

Bakermama was such a pleasure to work with! I went to her home in McKinney to pick up cake samples and she was kind, caring, and you could tell very passionate about what she does. I knew she was the one to do our cakes. It was hard to choose just one flavor - so we didn't! Our wedding cake was two different flavors, and Groom's cake another flavor. The wedding cake turned out absolutely stunning (4 tiers, textured buttercream) and the Groom's cake was a HIT! She was able to make a cake in the shape of a Ford Torino (I wasn't sure if it was possible!) with "Just Married" on the back and our last name on the liscence plate. It was absolutely amazing! I am so thankful that we found Bakermama to do our cakes! She made everything easy, was professional and responsive, and delivered beautiful, delicious cakes to our venue. What more could we ask for! I highly recommend Bakermama!

Bakermama was a joy to work with!!!! She was enthusiastic, pleasant and passionate about baking.
After reviewing her website I was sold on her clean aesthetic.....there were designs for every style from rustic to modern. But after a tasting, I knew she would be a perfect fit.
About me...I'm a foodie and like complex flavors. Thea was open to collaboration and able to think outside the box. We had a four tier bridal cake and our grooms cake was a Jack Daniels bottle. Both cakes were delicious!!! The night before our wedding Thea made a change to our design because it did not meet her standards. Our final products were perfection!!!!
Our guest raved about how flawless our cakes were as much as the taste.
If you are looking for beautiful, great tasting and easy to work with the Bakermama should be on your list of vendors.

Thea was great to work with. She was so kind and helpful. Her cakes are delicious. I really wanted to have a lemon cake for my wedding. Thea contacted me when as soon as she had some for me to try. Unlike other bakers I went to, Thea’s lemon cake and buttercream were made from real lemons, no artificial flavoring or colors. Her chocolate cake and buttercream was amazing too. The cake itself was beautiful and exactly what I was wanting.

Thea was so incredible to work with from a wedding planner perspective. She was very responsive to my emails confirming times and other details. She made the most delicious cake for the couple and cannot wait for the opportunity to work with her again.

We hired Bakermama to do our wedding cake this past June. The cake was beautiful with so much details and the taste was beyond amazing! Bakermama arrived to the venue on time, if not early and delivered. The only thing we asked was for the baker to have flowers placed on the cake (since we paid extra for the florist to leave extra flowers for the cake) but the florist was late on the day of the wedding so this prevented our baker from being able to place the flowers on the cake so the venue had to do it. I would have thought the baker would stay to place the flowers. Other than that, the cake was overall a 5 star.

I was one of the brides that was affected by the COVID-19. Bakermama was so nice and understanding of the whole situation. We had her cake tasting and her cakes are AMAZING! Super moist and flavorful. My fiancé and I took forever to decide on a flavor because we wanted them all. We have seen previous work and all her cakes are gorgeous. We will definitely be contacting her in the future!!
