Lil' Somethin' Sweet, Mesa

When Angie's friends laid eyes on the extravagant themed cakes she made for her children's birthdays, they started asking her to whip up specialty creations for their own young ones. As Angie crafted more and more cakes, it became her passion and her solace. After seven years, she was finally able to quit her old job and start a Lil’ Somethin’ Sweet.

From its spot within the Superstition Springs Center’s food court, the bakery serves up muffins, cinnamon rolls, cake pops, and other treats to shoppers and emaciated mannequins. In addition to selling single-serving pick-me-ups, Angie sculpts 3-D and tier cakes for special occasions such as weddings, and continues to design the kids’ themed cakes that first fueled her confectionary dreams. She also custom decorates cupcakes and cookie cakes that come with flavors and fillings such as peanut-butter cup and bavarian cream.
