Welcome to Stella Cake!
Our story begins with Amanda’s great-grandmother, Stella Martin, who was known for her signature orange pound cake, a cherished treat at every family gathering. Inspired by Stella’s recipe, Amanda began baking mini versions of the beloved cake for her family. What started as a tribute soon evolved into a passion, experimenting with new flavors while keeping the same key ingredients that made Stella’s original recipe so special.
A Cake For Any Occasion
Locally Sourced, Guilt-Free Indulgence
We’re committed to using only fresh, local ingredients—never artificial flavorings or preservatives. Whenever possible, we source our ingredients from North Carolina’s farms, produce stands, and farmers’ markets, bringing you the best of our local community in every bite.
At Stella Cake Bake, we specialize in creating the perfect mini pound cake—so you can enjoy every bite of sweetness without the guilt of a full-sized indulgence!
