Cakes, macarons and sweet treats galore — Cassidy's Cooling Rack is a northeast Ohio business that has all the confectionary goods you could ever need for a celebratory event. From birthdays and graduations to weddings and holiday get-togethers, head baker and owner Cassidy Colón can make a little something sweet for any event.
The Litchfield resident and Buckeye High School grad opened Cassidy's Cooling Rack in 2020 after everything was shut down due to the pandemic. She said: "It started with cookie decorating kits during COVID and has progressed from there. Now I take custom orders for cakes, cupcakes, cake pops and more."
But Cassidy started baking well before 2020. She explained to us, "I've been baking since I was a kid. I used to get in trouble for spending too much time baking and making a mess in the kitchen."
Although she still makes a bit of a mess in the kitchen (a necessary evil when you're baking), the launch of Cassidy's Cooling Rack allowed her to continue spending time doing something she's passionate about while making people in the community happy with delicious treats.
Since its inception, the demand for her sweet treats has only grown. Some of her most popular orders are birthday cakes and wedding cakes. However, she also offers macarons, cookies, cupcakes, cake pops and cakesicles — all of which are completely customizable.
"I have a list of flavors that I offer, but I will do basically anything. I can get creative and I love working with my customers to make custom creations," said Cassidy. "One of the more unique flavors that I do is champagne. It's really good in macarons and cakes. I never use the artificial champagne flavor — I only use real champagne and this makes a difference."
