Thanks for stopping by Short Cakes!

I am Beth Short, a cake designer located in Grayslake, Illinois. I take great pride in creating unique, personal cakes for any occasion. Cakes can be based on your personal interests or party theme. Take a look at the recent cakes I have created to see what I can do.

Cakes are available in a variety of flavors and fillings. Frosting is typically made of homemade buttercream or whipped buttercream. I consider myself a "peanut-free" baker. I have made several cakes for families with peanut allergies, many of whom are repeat customers! I do use nuts in fillings on occasion, but those are done by hand and do not come into contact with my equipment.

Serving all nearby communities, including (but not limited to) Antioch, Gurnee, Libertyville, Waukegan, and Kenosha. Arrangements can be made for pickup or delivery.
