These are past birthday cakes for my niece Danielle! Her bday is next month so let’s see what she designs!!

So sad. 😞 I’ve followed her work for several years now. Can’t believe it.

So sad. 😞 I’ve followed her work for several years now. Can’t believe it.

With great sadness, I am sharing that my beloved best friend, Minette Rushing passed away peacefully December 27, 2025, at 5:37am after a short illness.

A renowned wedding cake designer, Minette’s sugar flower artistry was the signature detail of countless weddings and celebrations for celebrities, athletes, prominent Southern families and especially her cherished friends. There was not an event in my family that did not include a Minette Rushing cake.

Minette was a passionate educator who was wildly generous with her time and talent. Hundreds of you spent time in her kitchen studio honing the craft and learning the business. She wanted her students to master pricing as much as a David Austin rose or hydrangea. Minette was adamant that your business serve your life and not the other way around. She shared her philosophy and love of clients freely through her social media accounts.

Her loyal and supportive friendship knew no boundaries, and how lucky was I to be a beneficiary. When she wasn’t in her kitchen studio creating, you could find her on a cruise ship or cuddling with her cats. She is survived by her precious son Jon and treasured husband Jim and hundreds of us who have celebrated life’s moments with a Minette Rushing cake. She is now reunited with her daughter Lizzie, and I know they are drinking V***e and eating a slice of pink champagne cake.

Baking was her love language. The world just lost a little of its sweetness.

XOXO
