We couldn’t possibly feature all the excellent cake bakers and decorators in southern Maine, but here is contact information for several we wrote about, and didn’t, that offer cakes for special celebrations. In general, when ordering round cakes, an 8-in.-diameter cake serves about 10 people and a 10-in. cake serves 20.
When ordering wedding cakes, most bakeries offer tastings to help couples decide on flavors, fillings and frosting. Try to taste and order as far in advance as possible, as this year’s wedding season is looking busier than ever, and some cake makers are already taking orders for 2023!
