Howdy, cake enthusiast!

We love our work! As artist, collaborators, entrepreneurs, and as husband and wife we get to design playful and elegant pieces of art that help you celebrate some of the most important days of your life.

After a decade of creating exquisite cakes in Southern California, we are so excited to finally be able to share our Cake Jewelry all over the world via eCommerce. We love helping you celebrate in style, and it is our goal to provide unforgettable sparkle and elegance for your cake on any budget.

Tammy & Luke - a sweet collaboration

Very Different Cakes began in 1997 as artist Tammy Massman-Johnson’s unique cake design company, catering to clients with a serious sense of style. Shimmering in pearl dust, sparkling with Swarovski Crystals, and towering on custom wrought iron stands, her edible works of art quickly enjoyed coverage in high-end wedding and style magazines.

In 2003 Tammy’s husband Luke - a frequent cake design collaborator - crafted a monogram cake topper in large Swarovski rhinestones. It was breathtaking and they both recognized an opportunity.

Luke stepped away from his career as an Art Director to work with Tammy on their new product and pursue a mutual dream: a lifestyle of creative collaboration with each other.

Sweet 509 blings it on

On Valentine’s Day 2004, Tammy & Luke moved into a new studio space in Hollywood and by March were recognized among the top cake designers in the country. Their cakes were featured in magazines, television specials and DailyCandy.com - all sparkling with their new Swarovski Crystal jewelry.

Calls flooded in from all over the world. Most long-distance inquiries were about the new toppers and Tammy & Luke stood at a crossroads - continue creating cakes exclusively for a tiny niche of clients in LA, or produce an exquisite line of Cake Jewelry for eager clients everywhere.

Happily, they chose both! Tammy & Luke launched this eCommerce site for cake enthusiasts all over the globe, and they still take an exclusive few cake projects in LA for distinguishing clients head-over- heels in love with their signature “whimsically elegant” style.

Thanks, Dan!

Daniel Swarovski invented the first precision crystal cutting equipment in 1892, and through a century of innovations and style, Swarovski� Crystal remains the finest quality, full-lead crystal made today.

Optically pure, the crystal is faceted with tremendous precision to create beautiful prisms. Brilliant colors and coatings are added to create stones of dazzling beauty in a tremendous variety of shapes and sizes, and unmatched in quality and distinction.

Very Different Cakes is proud to offer luxurious jewelry for cakes, inspired by and crafted exclusively with the remarkable brilliance of Swarovski Crystal.
