Serving up sweet treats in orlando since 2014
Meet Orlando's Sugar Divas
Some businesses are built from recipes. Ours was built on family.
Every great family business has a story, and ours begins in a small kitchen in England.
At just 13 years old, Clare decorated a birthday cake for her grandmother. What started as one heartfelt gift quickly became a lifelong passion. She spent years learning the art of cake decorating alongside her mum—who baked while Clare decorated—experimenting with new techniques, making plenty of messes, and discovering that cake has a unique way of bringing people together and turning ordinary moments into lifelong memories.
When Clare moved to Orlando, she brought that dream with her and founded Sugar Divas Cakery, creating a place where artistry, celebration, and a little diva flair come together in every creation.
But Sugar Divas has never been just Clare's story—it's always been a family affair.
From day one, Mum, our Original Diva, has been one of Sugar Divas' biggest champions. She helped make the dream possible, baked every cake during the bakery's first two years, and has continued to lend a hand throughout her retirement. Whether she's running errands, pitching in behind the scenes, or simply doing whatever needs to be done, her love and support have always been woven into the fabric of Sugar Divas.
Then came Sophie, our Little Diva.
Clare discovered she was pregnant just three weeks before opening the bakery, and by the time Sophie was only two weeks old, she was already spending her days at Sugar Divas. She quite literally grew up surrounded by buttercream, cake boxes, wedding weekends, and birthday celebrations. Today, she's officially part of the team, learning the family business one cake at a time with dreams of one day carrying on the Sugar Divas legacy.
Today, Sugar Divas represents three generations connected by creativity, family, and a shared love of celebrating life's sweetest moments. While the cakes have become more intricate and the celebrations even grander, the heart of Sugar Divas remains exactly the same as it was all those years ago in Clare's mum's kitchen: creating something beautiful that brings people together.

I decorated my very first cake at 13 as a birthday gift for my grandmother. Who knew that one cake would lead to a lifetime surrounded by sugar?

FOUNDER & CHIEF DIVA OF SUGAR DIVAS CAKERY
Clare
For me, cake has always been about the people and stories behind each celebration. I love taking something meaningful to a client, whether it’s a favorite hobby, a treasured memory, or their wedding day vision, and turning it into a cake that feels uniquely theirs.
Originally from England, I bring a little British charm and plenty of Diva flair to Sugar Divas. Working alongside my talented team, I get to dream up designs, explore new ideas, and create cakes that taste just as amazing as they look.
My favorite part? Seeing a client’s face when they first see their cake. There’s something special about knowing that something we’ve created will become part of a memory they treasure.
Away from the cake shop, I love spending time with my daughter, Sophie, sharing new adventures and exploring the world together. The beach is my happy place, and I love making time for exercise, especially Pilates and yoga. Family is at the heart of my life and everything we create at Sugar Divas.
Sugarcraft Specialist & lead diva
Jen
The organized heart of Sugar Divas, Jen keeps the magic moving behind the scenes while jumping in wherever she's needed. With nearly three decades of cake experience, she has a knack for bringing even the most intricate creations to life—especially over-the-top ocean-themed cakes (sharks included!). When she's not making sure every detail is just right, you'll find her experimenting with sourdough, tackling an arts and crafts project, or spending time with her kids.
Cookie dough is her dessert weakness, and she's happiest with a good checklist, plenty of buttercream, and everything in its proper place.
Fun Fact:
Head diva of guest experience
Kylie
From your first tasting to your final pickup, Kylie is all about making every interaction feel effortless, welcoming, and unforgettable. She's the friendly face guiding clients through the sweetest part of planning, ensuring everyone leaves smiling. Whether she's answering questions, hosting tastings, or cheering you on, her goal is simple: create an experience that's just as memorable and sweet as the cake itself.
She has exactly one walking speed (fast), believes hot dogs equal instant happiness, and can often be found at concerts or serenading her cats.

shay
Every unforgettable cake starts with incredible flavor, and that's where Shay shines. She's constantly dreaming up new combinations, testing recipes, and creating desserts that taste every bit as amazing as they look. With over a decade of bakery experience, she believes dessert should never be boring—and neither should life.
Cookie artist, dog-day adventurer, smooth skater, and proudly "too fun to be serious." Ask her to pick a favorite cake flavor and she'll simply say... all of them.

kayla
If it's hand-painted, covered in delicate palette flowers, or inspired by the ocean, there's a good chance Kayla had a hand in creating it. She loves transforming clients' ideas into edible works of art and thrives on the tiny details that make each cake one of a kind. When she's not decorating, you'll probably find her crocheting, gaming, reading, or planning her next adventure.
She's an animal lover through and through, has three pets, and says she'd choose them over people most days.

Sugar Divas is family-owned and operated
