Tucked inside The Old Bag Factory in Goshen is a place where you can have your cake and eat it too.

Welcome to Unique Cakes.

This is not your mother's bake shop but owner Danielle Yoder's mom did have an influence as teaching her daughter to bake when she was a little girl has now turned into a passion. “Really everything I see is cake to me. Everything I see I think 'how could I turn that into something edible?’ I love a challenge!” says Danielle.

Pretty much the sky's the limit for this 24-year-old chef.

Danielle considers herself an artist and judging by the cakes she clearly is. She's the ‘Ace of Cakes’ of Goshen. A pink cupcake bouquet, a Super Mario Bros. for the kids, Jeff Gordon Nascar, cake in the shape of an RV, a Fender electric guitar, or a graduation celebration are just a taste of what she's done.

“We actually had a little semi that Troyer gave us that we took measurements off of.”

Some of her other creations include a miniature St. Peter's Basilica, a pink iPod, and a Cocker Spaniel.

While the cakes are impressive, taste is also what counts. Danielle says they don't freeze anything, don't bake ahead, and everything is baked fresh and is designed specifically for you.

“I think the most satisfying part of the job is just to see someone smile when they see the cake. I want Unique Cakes to be an experience, not just a cake shop.”

For Danielle, creating a business based on a childhood passion is the icing on the cake.
