With over 17 years experience as a professional pastry chef, I officially launched The Baby Bird Bakery in 2017 with the vision of making delicious, beautiful cakes, and a goal of keeping prices competitive yet affordable. I will never tire of the classic, timeless white wedding cake, yet love to experiment with textures, colors, and on-trend techniques to make your cake the unforgettable centerpiece to your reception (aside from the newlyweds, of course!) You'll love my signature buttercream that tastes like no other, and a menu ranging from traditional almond 'wedding cake', to super fun combos such as Peanut Butter Chunk, or Chocolate Raspberry Truffle.

The Baby Bird Bakery made a cake that still has our guests raving about it!
We provided Kristin with a few details and our moodboard, she did the rest and made this incredibly easy. The cake was mid-century modern perfection on the outside, a culinary delight on the inside. I’m glad we ordered more cake than we needed because guests had seconds and thirds as the night grew.
Cannot say enough about our experience working with Kristin. She’s a gem for the KC community!

Kristin of Baby Bird Bakery made our cake dreams come true! We needed a classic cake from the 90’s re-created and she nailed it plus made it gluten-free!
We asked Kristin if she could create a cake similar to one from a family wedding at Disney World in the 1990’s. Not only did she agree to take this on, she made it better than the original. She paid such close attention to all of the details, down to making the cake and filling flavors especially for this. The care she gave to this order, certainly not her largest one, was simply incredible.
We can’t say enough about the level of service we received from Kristin. We would give her ten stars if we could!
All I can say is WOW! We absolutely loved working with Kristin for our wedding cake and desserts. We tried a few other bakers but she had us hooked in with her buttercream, it's so unique and delicious! No wonder she calls it 'Signature'. We had a small 2-tier cake and a variety of Sweet Bites, it was important for us to get everything from the same business and we appreciated her variety of menus and delivery options. We wanted a lot of different treats for our guests so it was perfect. The planning process was easy and professional, she was so helpful walking us through the process and her Cake Math recommendations for how much buy were spot on. We plan to use Kristin for many celebrations to come.
We had the pleasure of working with Baby Bird Bakery for our wedding and we couldn’t be more impressed! We opted for a dessert bar instead of traditional cake. Our guest still reach out with raves about the cheesecake, mini pies and apple crumble. Baby Bird Bakery also set up the display for the desserts with signage. It truly added a personal touch to our celebration and we are so grateful for their exceptional service!
Kristin absolutely knocked it out of the park with our desserts! She was very professional and easy to communicate with, and was able to bring our wedding vision to life. We decided to forgo a cake and instead offered our guests a variety from the sweet bites menu. Everything was delicious and beautifully displayed. It was definitely a highlight of our wedding!
Our cake was absolutely stunning! She gave us height and beauty!! We loved and everyone said it tasted really good too!!
We had an amazing time working with The Baby Bird Bakery. She was very professional, communicated easily, and most of all gave us an amazing custom cake.
Kristin was wonderful to work with. She heard our vision and brought it to life. She did several cakes for our event (ALL said it was the best cake they'd ever tasted) - and we did a dessert bar with shooters, bars, cupcakes, etc. Again - she gave expert guidance, was professional, and provided a truly quality product and experience. HIGHLY recommend.
Kristin was the perfect choice for our wedding day desserts! The cake was beautiful and delicious, and every other dessert we had was out of this world delicious! She made sure that we got exactly what we wanted, and that we had exactly what we needed for anyone we knew who had food allergies. We got so many great comments on the desserts and could not have been happier with our experience. We truly loved every single dessert we had!
I was a super duper hands off bride the whole planning time, so Kristin and I didn’t speak a ton but I was so wowed by the cake, desserts and display. Everything was beautiful and SO TASTY. We are now currently all fighting over the leftover oatmeal cream pies and key lime tarts. I gave Kristin a vague idea of what I wanted and was still blown away. I didn’t think wedding cake would even be that good but ours is delicious!! I am planning on ordering a 1 year anniversary cake from her!
Working with Kristin at The Baby Bird Bakery was an absolute delight. The display she put together at my wedding was GORGEOUS and my guests would not stop talking about how good the cupcakes she made were!! I know lots of my friends and family couldn't help but to go back for seconds as the night continued on. If you're looking in the KC area to hire someone for your party/wedding reception/or event, I would highly recommend working with The Baby Bird Bakery!
Thank you so much for your professionalism and creative energy! The Baby Bird Bakery was an excellent addition to our wedding reception and we are so grateful for your contribution to our vendor team! Everyone, I mean literally everyone raved about your treats and sometimes I wish I could go back in time just to taste the salted caramel brownie again! Can’t wait to throw another party just to have you come back again! The display table was gorgeous and so well done. We appreciate your consideration of our culture and being okay with the Indian treats!
We kind of lucked out with Kristin and Baby Bird Bakery. We were initially just going to have our wedding venue provide some desserts, but had a last minute change of heart and started to look for an outside vendor for our dessert bar for the wedding. Thankfully, Kristin had an open slot and took us on with just a few weeks to go before the big day.
First of all, her process is fantastic. We were able to get a sampling of a bunch of different desserts to figure out what we'd want. Then she helped us narrow in on the correct quantities of each kind of dessert given our budget and the number of guests we were expecting. She was a huge help!!
But most importantly, the desserts she made were AMAZING. I was particularly fond of the cheesecake bites, and my fiancee/now-wife loved her chocolate/oreo cupcakes. And the wedding cake was a huge hit with everyone; it was absolutely incredible and exactly what we were after. She event went the extra mile and helped source some gluten-free/dairy-free/vegan cupcakes for a few our guests with food allergies and preferences.
All of her desserts were a huge hit, and we would definitely, absolutely recommend her to anyone else :)
Our daughter was married yesterday and I kid you not, the wedding cake we received from The Baby Bird Bakery in Overland Park, KS was utter PERFECTION!! It was GORGEOUS! The presentation was impeccable. The flavors DIVINE! We seriously could NEVER say enough about how perfect this cake was in every way!
Look NO further than Kristen at Baby Bird Bakery. We will be singing her cake praises until the end of time!
Kristin did an amazing job with our wedding cake! Everything was so delicious with the tasting that it was hard to pick only two flavors! All of our guests loved our cake and it turned out so beautifully!
We were so happy to work with Kristin and her bakery. The cake and cupcakes were phenomenal. All of our guests are still raving about everything. She did an amazing job setting up and our table looked beautiful. She was very accommodating to our needs and easy to work with. People say you'll have leftover cake after the wedding, we definitely did not. We loved our cake and so did our guests. Highly recommended and super happy!
Kristin did amazing! Super easy to work with and answered all my questions and didn't get annoyed with my many changes to my order lol. She set everything up day of and it looked beautiful. I got so many compliments on the desserts and my sister might be booking Kristin for her own wedding in March. Highly recommend :)
Kristin did an incredible job with the cake at our wedding! It was beautiful and the flavors were absolutely delicious! We received so many compliments from our guests. She has a variety of flavors and while it is hard to narrow it down, you cannot go wrong with any of them. I cannot recommend Baby Bird Bakery enough!
Kristin baked us the best wedding cake we have ever tasted. Hands down. We went with vanilla cake and frosting with a raspberry jam filling, and it was phenomenal. All of our guests talked about how moist the cake was and had the perfect balance of flavors. Plus it was absolutely gorgeous! My only regret was not eating more of it at our wedding! Kristin was so responsive and kind to work with, we will definitely be using her in the future. I highly recommend her for any and all of your baking needs!
Kristin was so amazing working with us! The cake was delicious and she helped us design the perfect cake for our wedding. If you’re ever unsure about who to go through, you should definitely pick Baby Bird Bakery.
Loved working with the Baby Bird Bakery! Kristin was so sweet and her cakes are delicious and beautiful! She helped us create a unique design that looked absolutely perfect on our wedding day.
1000000000000% obsessed with our wedding cakes from The Baby Bird Bakery. Kristin was so sweet and great to work with, and her cakes were AMAZING! We did a small 3 tiered traditional almond cake as well as carrot cake, and chocolate cake with white chocolate filling (sooo yummy) as kitchen cakes. Our tiered cake was beautiful and exactly what I had pictured. Our guests loved having choices, and so many people told us that the carrot (my husband's longtime favorite) was some of the best he'd ever had. We tried several local different bakeries while trying to decide for our wedding, and Kristin's were by far the best- and as an added bonus hers were the most affordable! I would recommend her to anyone, and hope that we can find excuses to order her cakes again in the future!
We absolutely adored our cake and working with Kristin!
Wonderful Cakes of all
Kinds and cupcakes we had for daughters wedding. Kristen the owner awesome to work with. We even needed gluten free cake and hard to find but she can do it. Prices very good too! Highly recommend her.
Absolutely perfect cake! So wonderful and so easy to plan! I would work with The Baby Bird Bakery over and over and over again. I cannot wait to order another cake from there for any reason what so ever!
We ordered cupcakes from The Baby Bird Bakery for our wedding, and they were AMAZING!! The cupcakes looked beautiful and tasted delicious! Our guests were raving about how tasty the cupcakes were. We also ordered some gluten free cupcakes, and they were so delicious! We would highly recommend The Baby Bird Bakery!!!
She did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding desserts! We ended up getting a small, 2 tiered cake for us, and then cupcakes for our guest. She was great with communication and was very easy to work with. Our desserts were exactly as we wanted, and tasted so yummy!!
Kristin and Baby Bird Bakery made the most beautiful cake for our daughters wedding. It was exactly what they wanted. Not only did it look stunningly beautiful but it tasted great as well. This is our second daughter to use Baby Bird Bakery and we could not be more pleased!!!! Thank you Kristin !!!!
Not only were the cakes and all of the desserts absolutely amazing, so was the customer service!
Lemon bars and oatmeal pies were my faves!
Kristin was amazing to work with. I was a bride who had to postpone my wedding a year due to the pandemic and Kristen was understanding and had clear communication throughout my two year engagement. The cake was the best tasting cake I have ever had and also the most beautiful! I cannot recommend Kristen enough. We also rented a cake stand through Kristen and the process was a breeze. Please book her and you will not regret it :)
My daughter wanted a very non traditional wedding cake. Kristin was willing to take on the challenge of doing the Starry Night on the cake. She also made dozens of cupcakes in 3 different flavors of the bride's and groom's choosing. Both the cake and the cupcakes tasted wonderful. She did an outstanding job on the cake. Everyone was impressed with the wedding cake and the cupcakes. She was so understanding when we had to change the wedding date not once but twice. She was very easy to work with. We would highly recommended her for any occasion that requires a cake. We would most definitely work with her again.
Kristen was amazing! Very communicative, helpful in answering our questions and made my dream wedding cake a reality! We met months before the wedding to do a tasting of the cupcakes. The flavors were incredible. I didn’t really have a design per say for where I wanted the flowers to go on my cake and I was very impressed when I saw the outcome. She outdid herself. Highly recommend her!
Kristin was so amazing to work with! She took our minimal ideas for our cake and turned them into the most amazing creation. I was in awe of how beautiful our cake was. Plus, it was so delicious. I had set out Sola Wood flowers for Kristin, and she placed them on the cake so beautifully. We highly recommend Baby Bird Bakery!
Do you have a sweet tooth and high expectation for quality and presentation, then let me introduce you to Baby Bird Bakery. We were met with extreme professionalism and charisma prior to us securing this vendor for our wedding. She invited us in with her smile, kept us close with her stories, and made us fans at the taste of a single cupcake.
She has a vast variety of options to choose from that will satisfy even the pickiest eater. There is sweet, salty, and fruity for your pleasure. We couldn’t decide where to invest our money so we bought them all.
She came to our event early and waited til the perfect moment to layout the display. She hand placed each piece to build a masterpiece display that would win the first ribbon at any competition. Then she slipped into the distance leaving the party goers time to feast.
We loved the entire experience and plan on utilizing her for our next event. We may even get married a second time just for the desserts.
Kristin was so easy to work with and helped us create our perfect wedding cake! Our two tier cake was not only beautiful but also SO delicious. We also ordered two additional kitchen cakes and honestly even those were so pretty they could’ve passed as the real wedding cake! We highly recommend her!
Kristen made a red velvet cookie dough cake for our wedding and it was absolutely unbelievable! I was in complete shock when I saw my cake sitting there on the table, it was everything I asked for and more. Kristen went above and beyond to make sure that we had exactly what we wanted without going over budget and she seriously pulled off my wild requests so perfectly. Not only was the cake absolutely STUNNING, it was incredibly delicious. Our guests have been raving to me about how amazing the cake was and how the cookie dough in the center did not disappoint! I just can’t recommend her enough.
Kristin is AMAZING! She did our wedding cake and dessert bar for our wedding this past weekend and everyone raved about the desserts! We ordered more desserts than we probably needed but everything was still eaten. She was extremely organized and very experienced. We had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID and she regularly checked in with us and had all of the details down when it came time for our wedding. She even made me my own dairy free cupcakes free of charge! She did an amazing job on the surprise grooms cake which my husband loved. I would recommend Kirstin to anyone getting married.
Kristin did the cake and cupcakes for my sisters wedding! She made the vision for the cake come to life and even went the extra mile to use fondant so our teeth didn’t turn crazy colors! Highly recommend her for her delicious cakes and her level of professionalism!
WOW, just WOW!! After the wedding everyone called to actually find out who did the desserts because, and I quote, they were the best dessert I have ever ate in my life. They were so good in fact we didn’t even get to have some of the sweet bites that we ordered we wanted to try they were so popular with our guests which is just awesome. We are working with her to get the sweet bites for Thanksgiving so we can taste them ourselves since our guests loved them so much!
I met Kristin at a wedding show and after one bite of her cake I just knew I had to have her! Little did I know at that time she also did sweet bites! My now husband doesn’t like cake and it was perfect that she did other desserts as well. I’ll put it this way, we had over 200 pieces of sweet bites and we only took home 15 and only had 80 people at our wedding. Everyone couldn’t keep their hands off the sweet bites! So these sweet bites includes cupcakes, lemon bars, brownies, tiny pies, oatmeal cream pies, and peanut brittle. But she also have a large menu that has way more options. All the sweet bites we had, had the most amazing flavor ever!! The cake, we just did vanilla since we had all the other flavors in our sweet bites, was so moist and the frosting, oh my!!! There’s no words to describe it, besides amazing!!
All in all, I highly recommend the baby bird bakery! You will not be disappointed, promise!
Kristin was so fun to work with! I am gluten free and the groom is not and Kristin was able to provide us with multiple options. We were able to still cut a tiered cake (GF on top) which was perfect for me! She was helpful in deciding how much cake we would need based on the amount of guests we had. She also has a lot of experience which meant lots of photos to look at to be inspired for what we wanted our cake to be like. Since the top tier was gluten free, we did not save our cake but I can't wait to order from Kristin again for our 1 year anniversary next year! Thank you!!
Seriously the BEST cake around. When I went cake tasting with my mom for my wedding Kristin's cake was by far the best. My sister actually got married right before I did and she decided to go with her cake as well. Even for my bridal shower we had Kristin bake us mini cupcakes and little cheese cake bites and her cheesecake was the best I have tasted. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her again for upcoming events. Thanks Kristin!
HOLY COW!! Thank you Kristen and Baby Bird Bakery for our fantastic wedding cake!! Kristen was able to see my vision for our cake and give me exactly what I was wanting! The cake tasted AMAZING!!! Thank you for being so professional and reasonably priced!!
Planning/replanning a wedding during a pandemic was very stressful but it was all worth it when our daughter and new son in law finally got their wedding and it was perfect in every way! Kristen at Baby Bird Bakery was a huge part of the success of the day. She was flexible when we had to reschedule, very easy to work with, the cake was more beautiful than we could have imagined and tasted amazing!!! She came through and definitely exceeded our expectations.
Kristin did an absolutely wonderful job on our wedding cake! She was great to work with. During our initial consultation with her, we showed her a picture of the cake we were wanting for our wedding and the end result looked exactly like the picture. We received many compliments on the cake. Not only was it absolutely gorgeous but it was also delicious!
Kristin is very experienced and provided great input and tips during our cake tasting. Our wedding cake was delicious and absolutely beautiful! We received so many compliments from our guests.
Absolutely loved working with Kristin on our big day!! We had a ton of crazy requests for Kristin from a wedding cake, birthday cake and sweet treats and I am so so happy I chose Kristin to work with because she absolutely killed it. Kristin is extremely responsive, so sweet and so great to work with. You cannot go wrong with booking Kristin for your big day, cannot recommend her enough!!
Kristin was so easy to work with. We did a small two layer wedding cake and a dessert table with cupcakes, cake pops, macarons, and white chocolate covered pretzel rods. Everything was a big hit with all the guests, so fresh and flavorful. Kristin was so punctual and did a lovely job setting up everything. I highly recommend The Baby Bird Bakery!
Kristin is simply amazing! She was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. My wedding cake was absolutely stunning to look at, and the taste was out of this world! We did three flavors and all of them were fantastic! We got so many compliments. Above and beyond the wedding cake, Kristin made us the most amazing beer themed groom's cake! It was one of the highlights of my day seeing my husband's face light up when he saw it! Just amazing work all around!
Kristin was a pleasure to work with and produced the wedding cake of my wife's dreams. Kristin's consultation gave us a chance to try and select our flavors of choice and receive a quote that she upheld. She helped translate our thoughts into a beautiful unique cake, that tasted great as well! We had countless guests genuinely compliment our cake's flavor, chocolate and lemon, with the raspberry filling and mouse stealing the show! Kristin provides you endless possibilities and we are thankful we chose the Baby Bird Bakery to create our wedding cake!
Customer Service is everything. When you are struggling to meet a bride’s need because of 1. Your inexperienced and 2. You couldn’t make their budget work. You need to work on communicating that without upsetting your customers. Buttercream is far too sweet. Cake flavor was very artificial.
Wonderful service. Even better cake. Kristin was accessible, professional, and is extremely talented. Loved her beautiful work on our wedding cake, as well as our very fun KU themed grooms cake. Would highly recommend.
Kristin was so easy to work with! I met her at 2 different wedding shows and fell in love with her buttercream! She has so many flavors you can choose from, and she is very flexible when it comes to doing tastings. On the day of, she delivered everything and set it up, even though the area wasn't completely ready, she made due! She decorated it with fresh flowers from my florist and it looked so beautiful! We ended up doing a 3 tier display cake and a kitchen cake in a different flavor so our guests had options. It was also a complete hit with the guests! We are 100% going back to her for our anniversary cake since we didn't save our top tier. I recommend her 14/10!!
Kristin with Baby Bird was wonderful to work with and her cakes are delicious! She listened to exactly what we wanted and provided a gorgeous (and tasty!) finished product.
Kristin does absolutely amazing work!! My new husband and I were speechless when we saw our cake for the first time at the reception! I was nervous because we were working off an inspiration picture and I had a very specific vision in my mind but the real thing was better than I imagined! On top of her talented decorating skills, the cake was delicious. She has a wide range of flavors to suit everyone's taste and allowed us multiple flavor choices. On top of being a talented cake artist, she was a joy to work with. Responsive, punctual, detail oriented and everything you look for in a wedding vendor. I felt like she was priced fairly for everything you get. Will definitely be using her again for cakes in the future!
The cake was delicious. I don't think a single piece of cake was left at the end of our wedding! I personally found the frosting a little too sweet, but I tend to like less frosting than most people and the cake was fantastic! We had three flavors (vanilla, lemon poppy seed, and red velvet) and a grooms cake of German chocolate. And like I said, it was all gone by the end of the night!
Kristin did an amazing job on our 4 tiered wedding cake and grooms cake! The flavors were delicious....the almond icing was the best part! We had cake for about 300 people, and also had a gluten free cake for the mother of the bride. She said the gluten free was the best she ever had! Baby Bird Bakery was so great to work with and plan the perfect cakes for our wedding day! Highly recommend Kristin and her delicious creations!!
We had cake for 300 and it was amazing! Our guests all said how delicious it was. Plus we had a gluten free cake that was amazing too! Highly recommend Kristin!
We had a 3-tiered cake and then another 3-tiered cake stored back in the kitchen and Kristin was wonderful to work with! The cake was delicious and we were getting compliments about it all night! Would definitely recommend!
We had a 2 tier cake and a few flavors of cupcakes. She is reasonably priced and the cakes are delicious. I highly recommend the strawberry and also the pumpkin cupcakes.
