Hi my name is Wendy McGhee, and my staff and I would love to make something sweet for you! I was born and raised in Rutledge, Alabama, and grew up watching my mom and other family members bake, but I never thought I would find my passion in the kitchen.
All the women and many of the men in my family know how to work magic in the kitchen. I attribute much of my success to the baking secrets I learned from my mother (Daisy), grandmother, aunts, sisters and cousins. In my hometown “McGhee” means good times, great food and even better desserts. After college I entered the workforce as a software engineer and went on to start my own software consulting company, but I found myself baking for friends and colleagues and loving every minute of it!
I read an article in Black Enterprise magazine about Warren Brown a lawyer turned baker and I realized what I wanted to do wasn't so crazy. I signed up for classes at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York City, studying with acclaimed cake designer Toba Garrett. After training I officially started Daisy's Desserts and I have not looked back since. I'm having the time of my life in the kitchen! So give me a call, I'm in my kitchen waiting for your order. Remember life is short, so make it sweet!!

Let Wendy know how we're doing, what you're thinking, or just say hi!
Everything I’ve tasted from Daisy’s Desserts is absolutely delicious but my very favorite dessert is the Keylime Cake!

I used Daisy’s Desserts for my in-law’s 50th Anniversary celebration. Wendy listened to my vision and created a cake that fitted in perfectly to my scheme of the event. She even made samples until we were completely satisfied. I will work with her every time I have a special event planned. Great Job! Thanks!

We wanted something unique for a farewell party and working in the bedding industry decided on a cake in the shape of a mattress. The design was an exact replica of a mattress even down to the pattern design! The cake was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend Daisy’s Desserts!!
The Sealy Mattress Company
Daisy’s Desserts created a cake for my House warming. It was sooooo good and everyone just loved the design. The cake was shaped like a house. My guest didn’t even know that it was a cake until we cut it. Daisy’s Desserts is highly recommended.

“The cakes and cupcakes by Wendy McGhee of Daisy’s Desserts all have been absolutely divine. The creations have been edible works of art! Withdrawal symptoms surface when the cake is gone. I have tried other bakers but Daisy’s Desserts have me spoiled and I will NEVER order from another baker as long Daisy’s Desserts is in business. As I write this my mouth is watering thinking about the German chocolate, the French Vanilla and those incredibly moist chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing! Whew!! I love Daisy’s Desserts!!”
