The baker

baked by hand, in Los Angeles

Mayday Bakes started as a way to turn every celebration into something you'd want to photograph before you cut it.

Each cake is made to order in small batches — real butter, seasonal fruit, and flowers picked to match the moment. Nothing is mass-produced, and nothing sits in a case waiting for you.
