Head Cake Decorator

Queen of Cakes is a family-owned custom cake bakery serving Edina and the greater Twin Cities since 2003. Every cake we make is baked fresh and hand-decorated to order — wedding cakes, birthdays, showers, corporate events, and everything in between. Decorating is the heart of what we do, and we're looking for a talented cake decorator who can bring our customers' designs to life beautifully and consistently.

As a Master cake decorator, you'll be the artist behind our finished cakes — icing, filling, stacking, and decorating each one to its order specifications. This is a craft-forward role for someone with a strong decorating hand who takes pride in flawless finishes and loves the creative variety of a custom shop where no two cakes are alike.

• Fill, ice, and finish cakes with smooth, clean buttercream
• Decorate custom cakes to order specs — piping, lettering, borders, and detail work
• Build tiered and sculpted cakes with proper structure and stability
• Work with fondant: covering, accents, and decorative elements
• Must be fully proficient in fondant and sculpting cakes
• Match colors and designs to customer references and approved sketches
• Produce sugar flowers and decorative pieces as needed
• Maintain consistency and quality across every order
• Manage your decorating schedule to meet pickup and delivery deadlines
• Keep a clean, organized, food-safe workspace
• Flawless design
• Collaborate with the team on custom designs and special requests

• Professional cake-decorating experience (custom or production bakery preferred)
• Strong buttercream finishing and piping skills
• Fondant and tiered/sculpted cake experience required
• A sharp eye for detail, proportion, and color
• Ability to follow design specs while bringing your own craftsmanship
• Strong time management in a high-volume, deadline-driven shop
• Reliable, team-oriented, and open to creative feedback
• Food safety knowledge (Serv Safe a plus)
• Weekend availability as needed for our busy seasons

A culinary or baking & pastry certificate/degree is a plus but not required — decorating skill and reliability matter most.

• Established, respected name with 20+ years in the Twin Cities
• Creative, craft-focused work — every cake is a new design
• Supportive, family-owned team environment
• Steady full-time hours

Apply through Culinary Agents with your resume. A portfolio or photos of your cake-decorating work is required — we'd love to see your finishing, piping, and design range.
