Cake is a smile with frosting on it

Susie’s story

It all began with an Easy Bake Oven and a very kind and patient big brother who would try Susie’s creations. Following a bread apprenticeship in Cohasset MA Susie found her passion for baking but especially for creating bespoke cakes. Raising her wonderful children and a vibrant sales career spanned 35 years but over that time she never forgot her passion for cake artistry! During Covid Susie picked up her craft again, working nights and weekends while balancing a corporate career and thanks to her amazing clients made the jump to full time caking in 2022!!!!

It’s been pretty dang close to a Hallmark story since. One cake order and some serious coaching from a beloved older sister, grew to hundreds of beautiful creations. Susie finds time to donate to community events, created Thankful Thursdays to give back to her community of Deerfield and most of all stay humble while perfecting her craft. Susie can be found most early mornings in her studio dreaming up designs (when her lovely neighbors notice the cakery lite on well before dawn) and on very special days teaching her granddaughter the secrets of caking.

In 2023 Susie was invited to be a participating artist on the Deerfield Arts Tour! It was an honor to be included in an event which features talented artists in all mediums.

Susie and her amazing family launched at the Deerfield Fair in 2023 selling more than 2000 cuppies, making more friends and sharing the love with her community!

In 2024 Susie launched custom printed cookies, and a full charitable arm of the Cakery. 2025 saw a full scaling up of cake and cookie classes! 2026 will feature the addition of exquisite Korean influenced floral designs - a first in the area with continued vintage beauties gracing the Cakery.

Her customers are her valued allies in this dream and a day does not go by that she is not aware of the enormous support of the Deerfield NH community!

Thank you to everyone who has supported this amazing journey!
