THE PASTRY CORNER

The Pastry Corner is a family-owned and operated bakery in Mount Kisco, New York. It serves Westchester County and has done so for more than 20 years. Wedding cakes are a specialty, alongside signature cakes, cookies, pies and other gourmet desserts.

Why they suit LGBTQ+ couples

The Pastry Corner is LGBTQ+-owned. For couples who want to hand the cake to a baker who will simply understand the couple in front of them, that is a comfortable starting point. A small family bakery also tends to mean you deal with the people who make the cake, which helps when you want a design that reflects two grooms, two brides or something entirely your own.

What to bring to a cake consultation

Come with a guest count, your venue name and a sense of style. A photo of the flowers, linens or stationery helps a baker match color and texture. Ask about flavors, fillings and how a tiered cake travels, since a long drive to the venue affects structure and icing choice.

Because the bakery also makes cookies and pies, it is worth asking whether a smaller cake for the cutting can be paired with dessert tables or favors for guests. That approach often costs less than a large tiered cake and lets more people choose what they like.

Timing and delivery

Book your cake early, particularly for peak months, and confirm who delivers and sets up. Ask about the cutoff for changing the guest count.

Where they work

The bakery is based in Mount Kisco and serves Westchester County. If your venue sits outside that area, ask whether delivery is possible before you commit to a tasting.
