ABOUT ME
Hello Sweet Cheeks!
My name is Jessi Rose and I am the owner and founder of Sugar Shaker Cakes.
Based out of Monticello Minnesota, I am a licensed and insured cottage baker that puts the absolute most care into every single order I produce. I come from a long line of women who have cooked and baked love into their creations. I believe I carry that value into my business and every client I've worked with over the years.
I like to think it all began when I got my first easy bake oven. Baking with a lightbulb had never been so fashionable!
I first got into baking when I inherited my Great Grandmas cake decorating supplies after she had passed away. Looking through the boxes of vintage decor and misc cake toppers, I could feel the life they had left in them and decided to try my luck. Low and behold, I COULD bake! Not only is it a great way for me to express myself creatively, its a way for me to stay connected to my family heritage.
My clients describe me as bubbly, punctual, pleasant and communicative! I am a big energy person with even bigger hugs!
Some of my hobbies outside of baking include taking my two Dachshunds for walks, concerts, haunted houses, chasing taco trucks, antiquing, brewery hopping with my husband and of course, coffee dates!
My favorite flavors of cake are traditional almond with almond buttercream frosting, raspberry filled lemon and the tangy blueberry lemon cobbler!
My favorite ways to get to know a client are out for coffee (not required) and over a couple laughs! I am eager to get to know you and your dreams for your desserts!
WE'LL GET ALONG IF:
-Dogs are your jam.
-If you have a laid back personality.
-You like a good margarita.
-You're into Dad jokes.
