Welcome to Bklyn Bakes!

Welcome to Bklyn Bakes! I'm Randi, your hostess and baker! I've been baking since I could stand, and I was trained by the master chef herself, my mamaw (that's grandmother for those of you who grew up above the Mason Dixon Line). I figured it was time to spread the love around this big city!

Here's our current menu. I'm open to meeting your various baking needs, though, so feel free to email me at randiskaggs@gmail.com and tell me what you're thinking!

I'd be happy to speak to you if you have a different baked good in mind. I'm polishing my skills as a decorator and love trying to mimic the work of the Ace of Cakes guys, to the best of my ability.

I promise I'll post some pictures of my work soon!

Surprise surprise surprise!

The Amazing Holly Hobbie cake my Mamaw Miles made for me, back in the day.

Red Velvet "Ice Cream Cones"


This week's Bklyn Bakes order was a fun one! I got to bake a batch of red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese icing and deliver them from one friend to another. Completely a surprise!

Not only that, but I was asked to decorate. I found the adorable idea to make the cupcakes look like little soft-serve ice cream dishes from the Wilton Cake website, and it'll certainly be one of my favorites from now on.

By the way, I know about Wilton because my Mamaw Miles used to get their catalogues periodically and would also take me shopping at the one store in the 30 mile radius that sold their goods. I would pour over those catalogues the way my husband now drools over Fender guitar catalogues. And whenever I found a cake that I thought was incredible, like the elaborate Holly Hobby one, odds were good that was the cake that would show up at my next birthday party, courtesy Mamaw Miles.

And, yeah, I still do pour over Wilton goods. I just do it online now. I just have to make sure the drool doesn't fry the keyboard.
