Welcome to Sweet Green Icing

Picture
My name is Maureen.  When my children were little, I created birthday cakes for them of their favorite characters.  Whether it was Cookie Monster, Elmo, Raggedy Ann or the Care Bears, there was nothing I enjoyed more than watching their faces light up as I carried the cake to the table.  From these simple family gatherings, my hobby has turned into a passion.  I have taken classes to hone my skills and now the sky's the limit!!  I find that once I begin a cake, decorating into the wee hours of the morning is not unusual.  I'd love to help you celebrate the special moments in your life with a custom decorated cake.  Please contact me with any questions you have.  If possible, a week's notice is recommended for all cake orders.  I am located in the Southern New Jersey area, very close to Philadelphia and will deliver anywhere within a 2-hour drive from my home.  I look forward to working with you.  Please contact me at sweetgreenicingcakes@gmail.com.

If you're wondering about my company name, when I started to think about what to call it the lyrics of Jimmy Webb's song "MacArthur Park" came into my head!  Just saying that probably dates me, but I always loved the quirky song.  It was recorded by Richard Harris in 1968 in a version that ran over 7 minutes - which was unheard of on the radio back then!  The lyrics include "MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark - all the sweet green icing flowing down."  Those of you that remember it will know the rest of the words.  For those who don"t - you can just smile at this woman's nostalgic muse!!!

All of my cakes, cupcakes and cookies are made with kosher certified ingredients and are strictly dairy-free.
