Hi I’m Katie! Owner and Operator of Love Story Cakes. I grew up In Richfield MN and now reside in Waconia, MN. After high school I decided to pursue my passion and venture out to Rhode Island where I studied at the prestigious Johnson and Wales University. I learned so much but the wedding cake course was by far my most favorite! After graduating I worked in various commercial bakeries where I honed my skills. I now am living my dream of owning my own business making sweet cakes and desserts for amazing customers!

le. There were so many delicious flavor options to choose from, and the tasting was such a fun and memorable part of our planning. She was incredibly flexible with scheduling and made every step feel smooth and stress free.
Katie had an impressive amount of knowledge and creativity when it came to design. She offered a wide range of ideas and styles to choose from. She listened to our vision and helped bring it to life in a way that was even better than we imagined.
The final cake was beyond beautiful. It was elegant, perfectly styled, and truly the centerpiece of our dessert table. Katie also incorporated some fresh flowers from our florist, and the result was absolutely stunning. We received countless compliments throughout the night, and so many guests asked who made the cake and cupcakes because they were that good!
Katie delivered not just on flavor and design but on the entire experience. We are so grateful for her talent and professionalism and would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for something truly special!
