About Buttercream Heaven
Buttercream Heaven started in 2019 at home with my KitchenAid mixer. But really, it started long before that.
As a child, my grandma ALWAYS made us homemade cakes using her secret buttercream recipe for our birthdays and special occasions. She used to work at a bakery when she was younger so she had a few tricks up her sleeve. My mom would then always make specialty chocolates for special occasions growing up so I have watched my mom and Grandma do this for a while.
When my daughter was turning one I wanted to have French macarons at her party and my Grandma was no longer making cakes. The cake I made for my daughter’s first birthday was one of the first ones I ever did and it involved A LOT of messing up and covering up my mistakes with buttercream flowers - at the end of the day it didn’t matter because it was just a smash cake for her! After that, I started having people ask me if I would make macarons for their events and along came my side business. I was mainly only doing macarons but kept practicing with cakes and sugar cookies. My grandma gave me all of her cake pans (4 LARGE boxes worth, haha) & her cake decorating utensils. Once I started baking more my mom brought over all of her chocolate molds (again, numerous boxes filled with molds)! Somehow, over the past year or so it has continued to grow.
I now do cakes, cupcakes, sugar cookies, macarons and a variety of other items. Carrying on the tradition of having “Grandma’s cake” at birthdays and events was a special memory I had growing up and I am excited to keep it going for my family and others. It is a very special way to be part of people’s special occasions and moments in life and I love bringing joy to those I bake for!
