A working bakery, not a storefront concept
Elite Sweets is a cake bakery in Livonia. Our day starts before sunrise with sheet pans and mixers, and ends when the last wedding cake is loaded into the van. Everything is baked here, filled here and decorated here by the same small crew.
What goes in the bowl
Butter, cream, whole eggs, real chocolate, fruit we cook down ourselves. Buttercream is made fresh every morning because it does not hold overnight the way we want it to. Cheesecakes are baked in a water bath and chilled a full day before they go in the case.
Small team, long hours
Bakers
In at four in the morning. Cakes, cheesecakes and tortes for the case and for the day's orders.
Decorators
Piping bags, turntables and a lot of patience. Wedding tiers get built and checked twice before they leave.
Front counter
The people who take your order, write down the spelling of the name, and remind you to let it come to room temperature.
Delivery
Venue setup across metro Detroit, from Livonia out to downtown, Dearborn, Troy and the Grosse Pointes.
Greater Detroit area
Pickup is at our Livonia kitchen. Delivery runs go out most days of the week for wedding cakes, restaurant orders and office trays.
Come taste something
There is usually a cake open at the counter. Ask what it is.
