Overview – Owner Aimee Page begins her Fridays at 6:30am and doesn't finish until Saturday at 7pm--a 36-plus-hour marathon she does every week. She claims that some places will refrigerate a cake in order to buy some time between baking and frosting, resulting in a cake that is less than fresh.

Best Wedding Cakes
by smarchetta
Hollyhock Bakery made my wedding cake and I totally loved it. I met her at a wedding show one year and was taken by the fact that she uses natural ingredients and so I set up a tasting appointment with her. The portions were generous and they all tasted delicious. How could I chose? But I did and wasn't disappointed. The most important things about a wedding cake in my eyes is that they not only look fantastic but taste it too.
- Pros: Great service and product.
- Cons: None.
The Details on Hollyhock Bakery
Know Before You Go:
Planning a wedding in those busy-busy summer months? Be prepared to book your cake far in advance, up to 13 months. (Off-season weddings require only a few months' notice.) Either way, Hollyhock's great-looking, fresh-tasting cakes are worth the wait.
The Extras:
Hollyhock's most popular white cake is a raspberry Champagne with delicate vanilla genoise--a rich, light cake similar to a sponge cake.
