Who We Are

Live Love Bake is owned and operated by cake designer, Lindsay Holdorf. Founded in 2009, Live Love Bake makes custom cakes and cupcakes for every occasion.

Lindsay, head baker at Live Love Bake, is a graduate of Western Illinois University and started designing cakes as a hobby in 2008. Due to the demand for her unique designs, Lindsay decided to go into business for herself and Live Love Bake was created.

Lindsay’s philosophy on cake design is that every cake – whether it’s for a birthday, baby shower, corporate event or wedding – should be both beautiful to look at and even better to eat.

Based in the North Bay just outside of San Francisco, Live Love Bake opened its first stand-alone location in the Jordan Creek Town Center in West Des Moines in November 2013.

How We Work

We take your ideas, mix in our experience, and design the perfect cake for your occasion. To get started, give us a call at (415) 758-1LLB or e-mail us through our Contact page to set up a consultation.

We loved our cake!

Lindsay did an amazing job on the cakes for our wedding! We ordered a 6” cutting cake for ourselves and two sheet cakes for our guests (almond with almond cream and vanilla with raspberry). We loved our cutting cake and many of our guests told us that the sheet cakes were delicious! Lindsay was wonderful to work with during the planning process. She was always very responsive to our questions via email, and our in-person tasting appointment was a lot of fun. We tried five cake flavors and talked through our design preferences. It was clear that she totally understood our vision and she never pressured us to have a larger cake. On the wedding day, we loved the surprise of her adding flowers (provided by our florist) to our cutting cake. Thank you so much, Lindsay!

We LOVED our cake! And she was so easy to work with, sweet and responsive. Great design on the cake and super flexible with our requests, colors, flavors, etc. I even had guests three weeks after the wedding comment on how good the cake was (and wedding cakes are never memorable!). Highly recommend and was a great value!

Lindsay's cakes are some of the most beautiful cakes I've seen (and after shooting weddings for many years, I've seen a lot). Even better, she's easy to work with and a true pro. If you are looking for a gorgeous, unique cake, look no further.
