MEET THE CAKE DESIGNER
Rose Lepore
When prayers go up, blessings come down! Rose has long held a deep appreciation for the artistry and craftsmanship of cakes, beyond their flavor alone. Consequently, her celebrations have consistently featured exceptional cakes, even prior to her career as a baker. A serendipitous opportunity in Charlotte allowed her to work with a cake artist, and though brief, it ignited her entrepreneurial spirit, leading Rose to establish her own bakery. Amidst the grief of losing her beloved dad tragically and unexpectadly, God graciously gifted her a source of joy. Crafting cakes and sweets remains a profound source of satisfaction, as she pours love and dedication into each celebration, transforming them into unforgettable experiences. Rose is incredibly blessed to be doing something she loves, and her enthusiasm will radiate through every detail of her work!

DELICIOUS AND FRESH
Summerwood Sweets knocked it out of the park for our wedding. We chose a dessert bar over a traditional big wedding cake and every item was DELICIOUS and FRESH. I certainly patted myself on the back for choosing Rose to bake our desserts; the cupcakes tasted so fresh, the cake was not dry or spongey, and the frostings and all other desserts were perfectly sweet. Nothing was overboard or overbearing. The items were designed BEAUTIFULLY, I am still stunned by how wonderful everything looked and even happier with how everything tasted. I highly, highly recommend Summerwood Sweets!

ROSE IS SO TALENTED AND AMAZING TO WORK WITH!
We used Summerwood Sweets for our March wedding at the recommendation of our venue, Alexander Homestead, and are so glad we did! Rose is so talented and amazing to work with! My husband is allergic to gluten so we opted for a Macron tower as the main event and then added some cake truffles and cupcakes as well. I live in Arizona so I wasn't able to do any tastings but oh man were they so delicious and gorgeous. The presentation is great and Rose has a couple different pricing options based on how intricate or simple you want to be. I'm still dreaming about how yummy everything was!
