It's not in Charles County -but will be WELL worth the drive!!
Wildewood Pastry Shoppe!!!
YUM!!!

I was gonna say Wildewood Pastry Shop. They do the edible images. We did this for my boss's retirement last month, and it was a big hit. He was heading to Hawaii after his retirement, so I took a pic of him and edited it to add a lei, drink in hand, beach background, etc. It was awesome.

This place is wonderful. I had them deliver a cake to my brother for his 18th birthday. It was delish.

How much was your cake? It is one of the girls Birthdays here at the office so one of the other girls picked up a cake from there and she said that my share was $20 for a 8 inch round cake

Take a look at gas prices. I'd rather have someone send me a yummy cake for that price than roses that will be wilted the next morning. :shrug:

NO. CCA does not bake the cakes. They are like the FTD of cakes.

Cute but not very professional looking. Looks like she bought some really cool cake decorating tools and opened up a shop. :shrug:

Actually they look very professional...

The test is called the Apparent PITA test.

Many of hers are made using fondant and that is hard to work with.

McKay's cakes are the best! Just got my daughter's birthday cake from there. Mary Ellen Brown, mentioned earlier, does awesome work! She did my wedding cake. Then 2 weeks ago I got a really great cake from Jeneva's in Prince Frederick for a baby shower. The icing was sugary sweet (I tend to prefer McKay's whipped icing) but it was beautiful!

We use Jeneva's cakes for everything. The have several frostings available.
