Absolutely thrilled to share our experience with Jan Kish, the incredibly talented baker behind our wedding cake! From the very first meeting, Jan was a joy to work with—warm, witt...
y, and full of creative energy. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but working with Jan was one of the most fun and stress-free parts of the entire process.
Now, let’s talk about the cake: it was stunning. Truly a work of art. Guests were snapping pictures of it before we even cut it, and we kept hearing, "Who made your cake?!" long after the last slice was served. Every detail, from the intricate sugar work to the elegant structure, reflected her craftsmanship and eye for design. It felt like the cake was tailor-made to match the style and energy of our wedding day.
And then there was the taste—unreal. Often, beautiful cakes can fall flat in flavor, but Jan’s cake was rich, fresh, and absolutely delicious. Every layer was thoughtfully constructed and incredibly moist, with perfectly balanced flavors. Guests went back for seconds, and we were secretly thrilled to have leftovers.
What really stood out, though, was how collaborative Jan was. She took the time to understand what we liked, what we didn’t, and came up with ideas that were even better than what we could have imagined. She listened, suggested, and created something truly special—not just a dessert, but a memory.
It’s no surprise that Jan Kish’s name comes up constantly in local wedding planning circles. She’s a legend for good reason. If you’re lucky enough to work with her, know that you're in the best hands possible. She’s not just a baker—she’s an artist, a professional, and a delight to know.

Everything at the reception looked absolutely elegant and beautiful, as did you and the groom (very handsome!)....I'm glad we were able to fit in with the landscape you had created. And such a pleasure for me to work with the both of you, can we do it all again? Friends of mine have reknewed their vows five times (over 60 years of marriage)...great way to keep the party going. Let me know when the next round is, I'll be there! Thank you again for including me in your magic!! Fondly, jan.

Jan Kish of La Petite Fleur delivered a wedding cake that was truly show-stopping. From the moment we saw it, we were in awe—romantic, refined, and flawlessly designed to reflect o...
ur Paris-inspired honeymoon theme, topped with a beautiful golden Eiffel Tower. The cascading display of 360 cupcakes beneath the cake tied in perfectly with our historic venue, echoing the elegance of the chandeliers and ballroom details.
Beyond the stunning design, Jan created a moment we will never forget. After we opened our champagne with a traditional French saber, she surprised us by inviting us to use the same saber to cut our first slice of cake. It was such a thoughtful, meaningful gesture and made the experience feel incredibly personal and special.
Jan’s artistry, creativity, and meticulous attention to detail go far beyond expectations. She has an extraordinary ability to take an idea and elevate it into something unforgettable. If you’re searching for a cake designer who creates not just desserts but truly magical moments, La Petite Fleur is an exceptional choice.
Thank you, Jan, for adding so much beauty and heart to our wedding day!

I wanted to surprise my daughter with a unique wedding cake. She was not going to know anything about the cake until her wedding day. I live in Virginia, so I searched for Columb...
us area wedding cake bakers through the Knot. I quickly noticed the work of Jan Kish, of La Petite Fleur.
My daughter got engaged at the Columbus Park of Roses, in the elevated cupola. I envisioned a wedding cake adorned with non uniform roses and a reproduction of the cupola as a cake topper.
I contacted Jan and pitched my idea. First and foremost, my vision was not going to be easy to execute. We exchanged many phone calls, text messages, set up two tastings (my daughter and her fiancee picked out the flavors), and we spent a lot of time going back and forth to come up with the final design. The process was fluid with Jan making several suggestions along the way, me updating the design, until we collaboratively came upon something wonderful. It was Jan who suggested the sides of the cake incorporate some of the floral design on my daughter’s wedding dress. That’s something I wish I thought of, and it was just one of Jan’s design ideas.
A few things I learned about Jan during this process. She is a perfectionist. Secondly, she cares deeply about her craft. It’s actually difficult to discern between calling her a baker, and calling her an artist. As an artist, she will have definite opinions about what is going to look balanced, complimentary to the bride’s color selections for the reception, and how to best showcase this magnificent work of art. If you’ve ever worked with an artist creating something custom for you, these opinions are exactly what you want. The process could challenge some of your ideas, but it’s all for the shared goal of a magnificent wedding cake. This was my first cake design. Jan has decades of experience designing wedding cakes. Welcome that experience, and keep your vision during the process.

If you want a cake that doubles as artwork (traditional or something uniquely you), Jan is your woman. The inspiration I showed her for my wedding cake was fairly simple with one t...
ier's shelf covered with buttercream flowers, all in white. What she made for us was beautifully simple, but she took it to the next level and made the flowers out of gum paste and they were nothing short of stunning little masterpieces, really elevating the cake to something special and elegant. Her flavors are all absolutely delicious, too, with some that are pretty unique. Cost point is definitely reflective of her artistry, skill, and experience, but if your cake is really important to you, you simply will not be disappointed.

I am not normally a cake person and tend to choose other desserts over cake. Not with Jan Kish’s cakes! She is a true artisan! Her cakes are not only show stopping and beautiful bu...
t they are the most delicious cakes I’ve ever had! Don’t miss out on the midnight layer to ensure you get to have your cake and eat it too! We got 2 of them and were so glad because we barely got a piece during the wedding but then got to take home our own his and her little tiny cakes!
I cannot stress enough how delicious her cake was. I had multiple people approach me after the wedding or reach out and text me to tell me how much they enjoyed the cake!! We served the White Swan and Velvet Spice and I can’t tell you which one I liked better because they were both amazing.
I told Jan I wanted a wedding cake that people had never seen before. I didn’t want a traditional “wedding cake” look. And that’s what I got. It was absolutely amazing with so much texture and movement and had these beautiful sugar leaves blooming out of it. It was also embellished with pearls made from icing all down the front which matched my dress so well! I felt like I belonged with that cake.
If you’re looking for the best tasting cake and/or the most innovative and show stopping centerpiece for your event you HAVE to go with Jan Kish at La Petite Fleur.

Hi Ashley,

rmative review for us and I am so very glad you liked your cake to the 9's and have become a "cake convert". I'm ready for that Birthday Cake when you are! And you are so right about those little "Midnight Cakes". When all the happy craziness quiets down, how nice it is that just the two of you can enjoy your favorets and share sweet memories of the incredible night you just shared and still are. Your dress was so much fun to work off of and the "sugar leaves" made the cake bloom! Thank you for allowing me to create this for the two of you, it was an Honor! Smooth sailing all the way and have a blast, hopefully a cool one, when yout hit that honeymoon, Fondly, jan.

OMG, we were blessed to have the incredible “cake lady” as her neighbors affectionately calls her make our wedding cake. We had “THE BEST CAKE MAKER IN OHIO”.
Accompanying me to t...
he first tasting were my daughter and a bridesmaid. We all fell in love with the signature “Swan Cake”; I immediately booked our wedding and made another appointment for my husband to have a tasting as well.
Mrs. Kish was so great in explaining the process, we were relieved and just crossed the cake off our long To Do list.
Now, when the big day arrived, of course I was not at the venue during the setup so I had my family send me pictures of the cake, and yes I cried at how beautiful OUR CAKE looked on the mirror (we provided). Mrs. Kish and her assistants surpassed our ecxpectations. The cake not only looked amazing, it also tasted so delicious that we had two servings before offering it to our guests. Everyone took pictures of our exceptional, one of a kind wedding cake. And can you imagine they wanted seconds too but we were like, “absolutely not” 😂. Both my husband and I are called sugar freaks as it is, so they knew that we would give out seconds. We brought home the entire bottom tier“; yeah we know what you’re thinking🤔”; but nooo we didn’t plan on eating all of that cake. We shared it with our family, friends and bridal party, and yet we still have some left for ourselves. We prepared the top tier as instructed prior to freezing.
FYI, we have a piece on the 21st of every month 😋. So don’t wait to call and book your wedding or special occasion cake ASAP, we promise that you will not regret it.
Our special thanks to Jan Kish Jan Kish La Petite Fleur, you are magnificent!

Recently, we had some friends that are getting married ask who made our cake years ago? We exclaimed, Jan Kish of La Petite Fleur!! The cake was not only beautiful, it was absol...
utely delicious! And to this day, we still have friends and family tell us just how delicious our cake was!
When I was first looking for someone to make our cake, I looked in many catalogs. At the time, the knot was definitely on my list to check out. There were quite a few wedding cake makers here in the Columbus region, but one specifically in our town, so I decided to give her a call.
Jan was so kind. She provided me with coffee from her French Press and plenty of samples. They were all so delicious. So much more moist than any other cake that I had tasted at a wedding. I kind of assumed at the time, that her samples were better because they hadn’t been sitting in a large cake for awhile losing moisture, or some other reason. *Hint - I was proven wrong on our wedding day and our cake was still as luscious and delicious as her samples were!
I had two other cake makers that I wanted to still check out so I kept my appointments with them, just to see. The others made beautiful cakes as well and provided samples. They were indeed good, but honestly, really not as good as Jan’s.
Then a week or so later, we ran into Jan at the Diamond Cellar’s Engagement & Wedding event! My fiancé got the chance to really try all of her flavors and he fell in love as well. That, and Jan was super kind and considerate. She didn’t pressure me at all.
We then decided that Jan Kish La Petite Fleur was the cake maker for us! The cake was amazing. It was four tiered and covered in beautiful fondant with flowers and a signature H emblem in gold. Everyone at our wedding told us over and over how great the cake was. The buttercream was amazing as well. We could not have asked for a more beautiful or delicious cake!
To this day, we would still highly recommend Jan Kish La Petite Fleur! I know that there are so many things that we need to figure out for our special day - let this decision be an easy one for you, choose Jan.

Jan Kish did our wedding cake(s) and they were fabulous! The trim around the bottom of the bride's cake matched the trim around the bottom of my dress. Her attention to detail and ...
willingness to think outside the box, especially with the groom's cakes was awesome. My husband is a pilot and flight instructor and we chose several instrument images which she translated to the tops of cupcakes using fondant icing. We also chose to freeze the top of our wedding cake and saved it for our 1 year anniversary. We had white cake lemon cake, and the top was red velvet which is now a family favorite. If you want a cake that will be a standout then you can't go wrong with Jan Kish and La Petite Fleur.

Although it was 35 years ago it feels like it was yesterday! I never forget that day the charm the beauty the elegance was memorable and all of
my dreams came true and to this day ...
only remember the joy and happiness that was made possible by the expertise, professionalism and Calming approach(which by the way every nervous bride requires)by Jan Kish/ La Petite Fleur provided me! She made my wedding cake which was a rolled foundant decorated with the lace to match my wedding gown and catered my wedding dinner which the food was amazing and her catering staff were courteous and helpful and my guest to this day are complementing Jan Kish and all she did for us to make our day special and this was by far the best wedding we have ever attended!!!

We were very lucky to have Jan create delicious cakes and cookies for our wedding weekend. Prior to that, we had seen (and tasted!) her work at several events and we were always im...
pressed by both the appearance and taste of her cake. For our wedding, we met with Jan to taste both cake and frosting/cream flavors. She was knowledgeable about what would taste nice with what, but allowed us the creativity to decide. She was also very flexible to having multiple flavors for our wedding cake. For our wedding weekend, we chose a lemon cake with exposed sides for the welcome dinner, 3 flavors for our wedding reception, and sugar cookies as party favors. She took the invite and save-the-date as inspiration for the oceanic colors for the wedding night sweets. Since then, we enjoyed our anniversary tier a year later and it still tasted great! I’ve also ordered another cake from her for a smaller celebration because we were so impressed with everything she’s made.

Ms. Kish was an integral part of making our wedding day so memorable in 1998. We were able to sample the flavors prior to placing our order. We especially loved the flavor combinat...
ions available and decided on different combinations for different tiers of the cake. We chose chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling, yellow cake with cherries soaked in sautern filling, and white cake with raspberry filling. Additionally, she worked closely with our florist to incorporate the same fresh flowers in the cake that were used in the wedding bouquets. Despite the distance, she traveled 30 miles to assemble our cake. Years later and back in the Columbus area, I continue to order her delicious cakes for special occasions. After making the spectacular cake for my husband's 40th birthday, we received a handwritten note from Jan herself wishing my husband a happy birthday. Fast forward to my husband's 50th birthday, she helped me create a cake that resembled a poker chip. Her wonderful cakes, creativity and personal touch are what keeps me coming back.

Jan is the sweetest baker! Her Red velvet cake tastes amazing, and her cream cheese frosting is the best. She designed a cake for our small wedding and put so much detail into the ...
design, it came out beautifully!

I turned to Jan for help for my nephew’s wedding during the pandemic. We opted for cupcakes in clear bags tied with ribbon that allowed for celebration but with safe serving. It wa...
s a small informal affair with boxed “lunches”. The cupcakes were the perfect touch. And they tasted a good as they looked. The small anniversary cake was really pretty but the couple chose to eat cupcakes then and freeze the cake for next year. A perfect ending to a perfect day.

As a male couple, my then fiancé and I were uncertain where to turn for a cake that maintained the celebration of our nuptials but was also 'masculine' in it's aesthetic. We looked...
at everyone we could find but the cakes were typically designed or decorated with more of the bride in mind.
Jan had come highly recommended from others and when we met with her she had several ideas for us to consider. We had found a design online that we really thought spoke to what we wanted as a male couple; it was certainly a wedding cake, it was beautifully decorated with a fall-like theme in colors and sensibility and it looked like a cake we would be thrilled to have as our own. I was honestly apprehensive that anyone could re-create this amazing cake but Jan said she could do it and I put my trust in her.
On the day she called us to see the finished cake I was speechless (no small feat!) It was absolutely perfect! She had handcrafted leaves, fall foliage, acorns and berries all out of Royal icing. They were stunningly beautiful! I wish I could post a photo! We were able to have the top removed and we’re able to keep them - we still enjoy having them in our home!
In addition, she presented us with a small ‘midnight cake’ that matched our larger cake; this was for the two of us to share after the wedding. She also gave us a small boxful of additional royal icing leaves and acorns that she had made but hadn’t used. We gave these to family and friends as small tokens that they adored.
The cake had multiple layers and two of Jan’s signature flavors and everyone who saw it and tasted it was delighted and impressed by it. Jan is a true artist and sweet lady to work with.
Put your trust in Jan – you’ll be thrilled that you did!

I highly recommend Jan! She is very sweet and fun. She had my attention when we went for our tasting and she told us about the option to chop the top of a champagne bottle off with...
a sword!!! We had to reschedule due to Covid and our guest list was much smaller than planned for the final wedding date but she was very accommodating. The cake was GORGEOUS and delicious plus the sabering was amazing. I highly recommend adding that service to bring your wedding up 100 notches!!

Jan Kish came to our rescue after our wedding was canceled due to COVID-19. We were forced to do a private ceremony with 10 in our home instead and when I gave this update to Jan, ...
she offered to do a variation of our cake for a smaller amount of guests and it turned out so beautifully!! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful cake and such wonderful service. Thank you so much Jan for helping us to create a beautiful memory of our wedding thanks to the amazing cake you made for us! Would highly recommend Jan Kish!!!

We had three differnt flavors in three different layers and all were wonderful! In addition to the cake, we also had Jan saber champagne at our wedding. It was one of the highlights for our guests! People are still talking about it a few weeks later.
