Need a name for a fictional cake shop - robkelk - 03-23-2025
Preferably a punny name. Definitely a short name.
I had come up with "Just Desserts"... but today I learned that that's a real cake bakery in San Francisco. It's almost as old as I am. So... no good for the story.
Any ideas for a replacement?

Hm. Let's see.
Batter Late Than Never
The Rolling Scones (which is probably better for a generalized bakery)
Flour Power
Whisk Takers
Cake My Day
Bake It Happen
Not that it really meets your requirements, but our local bakery, called "L'Affaire", was replaced for a year by a cake shop that called itself "CakeLab". (They were apparently horrible -- they went out of business and L'Affaire reopened in the same location a couple months ago.)

At this point, I realize I should have mentioned whose cake shop it is.

On the list now, but I don't know whether I want a bilingual name. Thanks.

Right group, wrong Sailor... and she isn't likely to want to reveal her ID that way.

Also on the list now. Thank you.

Which is why I had to ask...
RE: Need a name for a fictional cake shop - classicdrogn - 03-24-2025
After lying down last night I came up with the idea of doing something with "muffin" and "nuffin (nothing)" or "moving" but didn't get anything particularly good. "Pastry" is another possibility but I could get from that is "Pastries and a G String" so unless there's a stripper and/or a cellist in residence that probably won't do.
RE: Need a name for a fictional cake shop - robkelk - 04-03-2025
Oh!
"Iced Dreams"
Which hasn't been used for a bakery, as far as I can tell. And the baker - Makoto - is also known for her skill at figure skating...
Thanks, folks, but I've come up with one on my own.

As an extra silly thought...if it's in an area prone to numerous earthquakes, and/or perhaps has a side hustle on semi-frozen dairy beverages, call it the 'Shake and Bake'?

The Cake is a Lie.
Cake to the face.
EAT MY CAKE!!!!!! (Yes, all caps.)
