Best Custom Cakes
Maribelle Cakery and Patisserie
Never mind the wedding, birthday, anniversary cakes and all the rest. The good stuff is on the "adult" portion of the cakery's Web page. You just need to know the secret code words. Well, two, really: "bachelor" and "bachelorette." There's a store in another city that does exclusively erotic cakes, but it's got nothing on little old Maribelle. Trust us; these specialties will make you hungry even if you don't like cake. Of course, they've got lots of other swell stuff, too, in flavors including chocolate truffle, lemon cream and pineapple right-side-up cake. And if you're planning a wedding, quinceañera or any other cake-requiring festivity, Maribelle's is the place for you. Complimentary taste testing is available by appointment, with bridal teas on Sunday afternoon.
