  • Yes! Rosie Bake Me a Cake is a licensed Colorado Cottage Food certified home bakery based in Pueblo, Colorado. All treats are made fresh in a home kitchen that handles common allergens including dairy, eggs, wheat, nuts, and soy. Because of shared kitchen equipment and ingredients, products are not guaranteed allergen-free.

  • I recommend placing orders 2–3 weeks in advance for cookies, cupcakes, and small cakes.
    For anything custom, or celebration boxes and larger/custom cakes, please order 4–6 weeks ahead.
    Holiday weeks book up fast — early is always best!

  • Complete my Custom Order Inquiry Form with your event details and inspiration photos. I’ll review your request and send a personalized estimate within 48–72 hours. Once approved, you’ll receive an invoice with your retainer amount and payment due dates to officially reserve your order date.

  • Not yet! Your order date is officially reserved once you approve your estimate and submit your 50% non-refundable retainer payment.

  • Sometimes! Rush orders may be available depending on my schedule for an added fee. Feel free to ask — I’ll do my best to help.

  • Payments are accepted securely through Square invoices using major debit and credit cards. Venmo and Cash App may also be accepted for select orders.

  • Your 50% non-refundable retainer covers planning, design time, ingredient purchasing, custom prep work, and reserving your order date on my limited weekly schedule. Because custom orders require advance preparation and reserved availability, retainers are non-refundable.

  • Final payment is typically due 7 days prior to pickup or delivery unless otherwise discussed in writing. Unpaid orders may be canceled.

  • I love inspiration photos, but I do not directly copy another artist’s work. Instead, I use your inspiration to create a custom design in my signature Rosie Bake Me a Cake style while maintaining originality and quality.

  • Here’s a quick look at my standard flavors:

    Cookies – My signature soft vanilla shortbread.
    Cupcakes – Classic vanilla or chocolate and strawberry.
    Cakes – Popular flavors like vanilla, chocolate, lemon, strawberry, and marble.

    🎉 Seasonal Flavors (Cookies & Cupcakes Only)
    I occasionally offer fun limited-edition cookie and cupcake flavors for holidays and special releases. These pop-ups are announced on Facebook and Instagram — follow along so you don’t miss them!

    🎂 Cake Flavor Requests
    I do take custom flavor requests for cakes! If you’re looking for something special, just include it in your inquiry and I’ll let you know if I can create it.

  • Yes! Delivery is available within Pueblo and Pueblo County for an additional fee. Limited delivery to Colorado Springs may be available depending on availability and scheduling. Deliveries outside these areas require prior approval.

  • Delivery fees are based on distance and travel time. Pueblo deliveries typically start around $5–$10, while Colorado Springs deliveries may range from $25–$40 depending on location and availability.

  • Keep cakes refrigerated until ready to serve. For best flavor and texture, allow the cake to sit at room temperature for 1–2 hours before serving.

    If there is an issue with your order, please contact me within 24 hours so I can review the concern and do my best to make it right.

  • Rosie Bake Me A Cake does not slice, serve, or stay onsite after delivery. Once your cake is picked up or delivered, you or your event host are responsible for handling, cutting, and serving. If you need a recommended slicing chart for your cake size, I’m happy to provide one!
