AK Events' Auntie Approved Vendor Spotlight: Sweet Creations by Sarah

Custom Cakes, Cupcakes & Cookies for Life’s Sweetest Celebrations

There are some event details people politely notice.

And then there are desserts.

Desserts are the thing people gather around, take pictures of, sneak seconds from, and remember long after the party is over. Whether it’s a graduation party, bridal shower, wedding, birthday, corporate event, or community celebration, the sweet stuff matters.

That’s why this month’s Auntie Approved Vendor is one I’m so excited to highlight: Sweet Creations by Sarah.

Sarah creates custom cakes, cupcakes, and cookies that are not only beautiful, but fresh, creative, and made with serious attention to detail.

How We Connected

I first connected with Sweet Creations by Sarah when I was on the hunt for desserts for a dessert auction while I was working with Habitat for Humanity.

Right away, I could tell Sarah had something special. Her desserts felt fresh, thoughtful, and creative — and her attention to detail stood out immediately.

When she’s given a theme, she delivers. Period.

Why Sweet Creations by Sarah Stands Out

Sarah is an at-home baker, but honestly? You would never know it.

Her work is bakery quality — or better.

She creates custom cakes, cupcakes, and cookies that feel personal, polished, and completely tailored to the event. Whether you’re looking for something elegant, playful, themed, branded, or just straight-up delicious, Sarah has a way of bringing the vision to life.

She’s even created custom sugar cookies with the AK Events logo, which is still one of those little business-owner moments that makes you go, “Okay, this is adorable and I need everyone to see it.”

Perfect For… Pretty Much Everything

Is there an event Sarah isn’t perfect for? C’mon.

Sweet Creations by Sarah is a great fit for:

Graduation parties

Bridal showers

Baby showers

Weddings

Birthday parties

Corporate events

Community events

Holiday parties

Branded business events

Basically, if people are gathering and you want them to leave happy, desserts are a good idea. Revolutionary, I know.

A Favorite Sweet Moment

This past winter, the Central St. Croix Chamber had Sarah create custom Western-themed cookies for an event, and they were a hit. The theme was on point. The flavor was on point. The guests were very much on board.

That’s the sweet spot — pun fully intended — of what Sarah does so well. She doesn’t just make something that looks good for a photo. It tastes just as good as it looks.

And because we clearly enjoy a good themed moment around here, Sarah and I have even talked about a possible winter team-up: an AK Events mystery party called “Who Stole Santa’s Cookies?” with Sarah making the cookies and AK Events planning the mystery.

A family-friendly mystery night with custom cookies? Tell me that’s not the cutest thing ever. I’ll wait.

Why I Recommend Her

I love recommending Sarah because she’s local, talented, creative, and truly puts her heart into what she makes. And that’s what you want in a vendor.

You want someone who cares about the details. Someone who listens. Someone who understands that these aren’t “just cookies” or “just cupcakes.” They’re part of the experience. They’re part of the photos, the memories, the theme, and the little moments that make an event feel personal.

What to Know Before Booking

Here’s the loving Auntie reminder: book early.

Custom desserts take time. Supplies may need to be ordered. Designs need to be planned. And Sarah may already have other orders on her calendar.

So while it might feel simple to say, “Can I get cookies next week?” — custom bakers need more notice than that.

Plan ahead, or you might miss out.

And trust me, this is not the kind of vendor you want to miss out on.

Final Thoughts

Whether you’re planning a graduation party, bridal shower, wedding, birthday, or community event, Sweet Creations by Sarah is one of those vendors who can take your theme and turn it into something guests will actually remember.

Beautiful, custom, fresh, and made with heart.

That’s Auntie Approved.
