Founded in 2018 by Katrina Peaks, The Cake Obsession has quickly become a premier provider of custom-designed confections in Blythewood, South Carolina. Peaks, a University of South Carolina graduate with a degree in History, made an unexpected career shift from business analysis to cake artistry.
The inspiration for The Cake Obsession came from a simple Lego cake Peaks made for her son’s 6th birthday. This experience ignited a creative spark that led her to dive headfirst into the world of baking taking classes, watching tutorials, and honing her skills. As word spread about her creations, Peaks realized that baking was more than just a hobby – it was her calling.
Initially known as The Twisted Baker, the business underwent a rebranding in 2021 to become The Cake Obsession, emphasizing its focus on creating exquisite, artistic confections. Despite facing challenges common to small businesses, such as
managing multiple roles and navigating the ever-changing marketing landscape, Peaks has remained committed to providing outstanding customer service and excellent products.
The Cake Obsession offers a range of customdesigned treats, including bespoke cakes, cupcakes, and decorated sugar cookies for various occasions such as weddings, baby showers, anniversaries, birthdays, and corporate functions. The business operates on a by-appointmentonly basis, ensuring personalized attention to each creation.
What sets The Cake Obsession apart is its commitment to crafting visually stunning and delicious creations, as well as its collaborative approach with customers. Peaks works closely with clients to understand their vision and deliver confections that meet and exceed expectations.
