WHO WE ARE
Our Lovely Founder
What the hell is Cakes By Lexi and why should you care?
Frankly, you don't have to care. But for those of you who were curious enough to seek out our "Who We Are" page, well, here's the answer.
We are a custom cake and cookie studio based out of New York City! Founded back in 2015, Cakes By Lexi started as a humble Instagram account used by owner and founder, Alexis Ong, to post photos of the hideous stuff she was baking. She did not strain any muscles coming up with the Instagram username, “Cakes By Lexi,” and somehow, despite her lack of naming creativity, the name stuck.
Nowadays, Cakes By Lexi is a lot more than a teenager’s bad Instagram account. We have evolved into a luxury business that is here to offer New Yorkers delicious, high-quality treats that your guests won’t believe are edible.
Because of Alexis’s background in typography and graphic design, our work is highly influenced by digital artwork and pop culture. We specialise in clean lines, bright colours, small writing, and graphic styles. Our attention to detail is truly unmatched, so the smaller and more intricate, the better. We especially excel at recreating company logos and products in cookie form and being able to capture the essence of a brand.
And while we do work hard, we also have a lot of fun here at Cakes By Lexi. Alexis’s silly and somewhat vulgar personality absolutely comes through in her work, and she loves taking the most inappropriate orders. So don’t be embarrassed to share your wildest ideas with us.
Whether you’re a parent trying to impress the in-laws at your kid’s birthday party, a maid of honour trying to spice up a bridal shower, or a company looking for branded products that people actually want (stop giving away drawstring backpacks), we are here to help.
We are immensely proud to be a woman-owned, Asian-American-owned small business, and we are grateful for every follower, client, and supporter we've ever had. Regardless of if you choose to spend your money with us or not, we appreciate you being here. And following us on Instagram is free, just saying.
No project is too weird, too detailed, too outrageous, or too intricate here at Cakes By Lexi. We can’t wait to work with you!
