A bakery smack-dab in the middle of a residential street
Epiphany Cakes was established in 2006. We operate out of a commercial kitchen on the ground level of my home on the corner of Stanley and Observatory Streets in Uphill Nelson. It’s a unique arrangement—a bakery smack-dab in the middle of a residential area—but it seems to work!
Our Cake Window is open Tuesday - Saturday. Stop by for a cookie, brownie, or a slice of cake.
We also make custom cakes. Please note that custom cakes must be ordered at least five days in advance.
