From lifelike butterflies to cascading edible pearls of sugar, Beaux Gateaux has built a reputation on turning custom wedding cakes into works of art. Cakes start at $7 per buttercream serving and $9 per serving for cakes using white chocolate, fondant or marzipan. Gorgeous handmade chocolate or sugar decorations are available at an extra cost.

For small affairs, Miette is a real gem when it comes to applause-worthy cakes, such as the Scharffen Berger Cake, which is covered in a bittersweet, truffle ganache. At 8 inches for $50, the cake serves 10 to 12 people. Conde Nast even gives Miette their seal of approval, ranking the small shop as one of the top ten pastry shops in the world. Good news for you – there are three Miette locations to savor: in the historic Ferry Building, Hayes Valley, and the Marina.
