Dessert Oasis

Sweetcakes Custom Treats

Lunabelle likes themes. She wears knee socks to the roller rink, reads Hemingway in Key West, and sips only margaritas on Mexican night.

Lunabelle also likes sweets. She enjoys cookies in fun shapes, sugar on a stick, and cupcake sandwiches (just pull off the bottom, put it on top).

Lunabelle, meet Barbie.

Barbie Roqueta began baking as a way to battle the stress and insomnia that came with her hectic job in land development. Soon, however, she began to favor frosting to foreclosures and started Sweetcakes. Her specialty? Cupcakes and other treats to fit your occasion.

Host happy hour and serve Roqueta’s Bailey’s and mojito cupcakes. Set up your own mini carnival and pass around little gourmet candy apples. Or go with Malibu coconut rum cupcakes and palm tree-shaped almond butter cookies (so soft, even on day three) for the spring luau. Roqueta will even line the dessert tiers to match your color scheme.

And that’s surely enough to make you the Lunabelle of the ball.
