Who is KB's?

I came across this article recently published in the Gainesville Magazine featuring KB's Kake Kreations. A portion of it is below.

But for those of you who were wondering who KB's really is her name is Kathy Blandford. She is the Sole Owner and Creator of KB's Kake Kreation's. Everything she touches spells perfection.

That is why Bride's named her their pick of the Knot for 2008 and 2009 and also the Bride's Choice Award for 2010. Kathy takes her clients ideas and turns them into a beautiful work of art in the form of a cake.


I am honored to know such a woman and to be able to work with her but I am extremely proud to be her daughter!

Confection perfection

"I feel like I'm a part of the wedding. It has to be perfect, on time and my very best every time," says Blandford.

A former cosmetologist and an accountant for Camp Kulaqua by day, Blandford craves the hands-on indulgences of cake decorating. From the 98-inch, seven-tiered mountain cake she created at the beginning of her career seven years ago to the specialty truffle cakes she makes today, Blandford gushes with excitement over each cake creation.

"To be able to be part of an event that is so special and so big is something that I not only enjoy, but take very seriously when I'm doing my work," she says.

Blandford's one-woman team requires perfection for each cake, even for those last-minute orders.


KB's has participated in events and charities such as: Let's Eat Cake for Cancer, SIDS Angel's Dinner, The Summer Wine Festival to benefit The Peforming Arts, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, and most recently Urban Meyer's Scramble for Kids where KB's is the NEW DESSERT SPONSOR!



So, when you think of KB's think of Kathy Blandford," The Cake Queen" What do you think of the name?
