Artfully Designed, Delightfully Delicious

Make your special day even sweeter with woman-owned and operated Sugar Shaker Bakery

At 12 years old, Rada Sam wanted to create something with her own hands. She had found that baking was a way to make people happy, which she was motivated to do. After baking her first cake, Sam’s fire was lit.

“I was born and partially raised in Germany, but my roots are deep in Bosnia,” says Sam. “Before moving to the States, I ran a bakery in Bosnia that was known for its delicious ice cream, custards, and cakes made from scratch. To this day, that bakery, Poslasticarnica Rimini, is very popular.”

Two years ago, thanks to her degree and hands-on experience with pastry, Sam became the owner of Sugar Shaker Bakery. Her team has since added multiple business partners, including wedding venues and party planning professionals. They have supplied nearly 200 weddings with both their wedding cakes and dessert table sweets.

“Every single cake we make is custom. We have definitely lost count of how many birthday cakes we make in a year,” says Sam. “I could not tell you how many times I have told myself how lucky I was to be able to be at the right place at the right time to acquire this business.”

With Mother’s Day around the corner, Sam believes that it’s important to show how much we appreciate all that our moms do. You can accomplish this with a special Mother’s Day dessert in her favorite flavors and colors—a completely personalized experience from Sugar Shaker Bakery.

“I cannot remember that we ever made the same cake for two different customers,” says Sam. “That is the beauty of my business. Every week, we have new challenges, and we love it.”

Visit Sugar Shaker Bakery at 241 N Bell Blvd, Suite 114B or sugarshakerbakery.com to order a custom cake for your Mother's Day celebration, birthday, or wedding now!
