About Cake Rules Everything Around Me
Bakery · Culver City, California

A bakery built on late-night recipe testing, loud music in the kitchen, and the belief that
every celebration deserves a cake with a little attitude.

Our Story

Cake Rules Everything Around Me, LLC started with a simple idea: if dessert is going to
crash every party anyway, it might as well be unforgettable. What began as small-batch bakes
for friends and pop-up events grew into a dedicated bakery and cake studio in Culver City,
California.

From day one, we’ve cared about two things: bold flavor and clean design. No generic grocery
store frosting, no “that’s fine, I guess” cake. We want the dessert table to be the moment
where people stop talking mid-sentence and say, “Wait, who made that?”

Now, from our kitchen at 3975 Landmark St Suite 400, Culver City, CA 90232,
we bake for birthdays, weddings, office launches, and the kind of random Tuesdays that
somehow call for a whole cake anyway.

What We Stand For

Every recipe, sketch, and sugar flower is built on a few simple rules we don’t break.

Flavor First

If it doesn’t taste incredible, it never makes it out of the kitchen. We lean into rich
textures, balanced sweetness, and flavor combos that actually make sense.

Design With Intent

Every cake starts as a conversation, then a sketch. We think about height, color, lighting,
and how it will look in your photos, not just on the counter.

Honest Craft

Real ingredients, real people, no magic powder shortcuts. We’re open about what we can do,
what we won’t do, and what will actually hold up at your event.

People Over Pretty

We love a dramatic cake moment, but we care more that you feel taken care of – from the
first email to the last crumb on the plate.

From Home Kitchen Experiments to Culver City Bakery

A quick look at how we went from “can you bring dessert?” to “you’re doing the cake, right?”.

Late-Night Baking

Recipe testing in tiny ovens, sharing test slices with friends, and saying “just one more
batch” way past midnight.

Pop-Ups & Word of Mouth

Farmers’ markets, pop-up boxes, and cakes that kept showing up at birthdays, offices, and
backyard parties all over town.

Custom Cake Studio

Turning sketches, inspo boards, and Pinterest chaos into coherent cake designs for
weddings, showers, and corporate events.

Today & What’s Next

More flavors, more dessert tables, and more collaborations with people who care about the
details as much as we do.
