Wedding Cakes

At the 1812 Hitching Post, we specialize in freshly made, never frozen cakes in popular flavor choices.  Cakes are frosted with our delicious butter cream icing - we can make it extra creamy and light if that is your preference.  Cakes are designed and decorated by professional designer, Patrick Waldron.  

With the Traditional Elopement Package, your cake will be a two tier round cake.  There is an extra charge for square cakes, fondant decorations, live flowers, or candy flowers.  

With the Fantasy Elopement Package, you are welcome to choose from premium cake styles and flavors including square cakes, fondant, and candy flowers.  Fresh flowers  will be provided to decorate your cake unless you request otherwise.

After your cake cutting, we'll wrap up the top tier for you two to take with you to save until your first anniversary.
