Meet Trina: The heart behind Baked with Grace
Hi, I am Trina, the heart behind Baked with Grace, a bakery inspired by my children, supported by my husband, and built on love and creativity.
What began as a personal hobby turned into a passion for crafting handcrafted cakes and floral cupcakes that help you celebrate the people you love most.
Baking began as a way to find peace during one of the most challenging seasons of my life. After the birth of my son Daniel, I struggled with postpartum anxiety that often felt overwhelming.
In that season I turned to God for strength and found unexpected comfort in the simple act of baking. Measuring ingredients, whisking batter, and piping buttercream flowers
became a way to quiet my mind and reconnect with the joy and grace God had placed in my heart.
As I began sharing my baked creations with friends and family, I saw how much joy they brought to others. With their encouragement and God’s guidance,
I started to see baking as more than a creative outlet. It became a way to share His love and grace with every family I serve.
Family inspired, faith anchored
Through it all, my incredible husband Adam has been my constant support. He is not only my husband but also my trusted partner in business, handling marketing,
website design, and behind the scenes systems through his business Shaffer's NextGen IT and Marketing. I lovingly call him my husbandger because he helps bring my vision to life in so many ways.
When my daughter Grace was born, her name became the perfect inspiration for this bakery. She reminds me daily of God’s goodness.
From her came the name Baked with Grace, a picture of the love, family, and faith that sit at the center of everything I do.
Since then, Baked with Grace has grown into more than I ever imagined. From custom wedding desserts to floral cupcakes for small gatherings,
every order is crafted with love, faith, and purpose. Inspired by my children, supported by my husband, and guided by God,
I pour my heart into each creation so it reflects the joy and grace that started it all.

Crafting sweet moments with purpose
Buttercream florals are more than decoration. They are a way to tell your story through color, texture, and detail.
I draw inspiration from real blooms, your color palette, and the mood of your event to design desserts that feel cohesive with your day,
not just placed on a table.
From sketching ideas to layering color in each petal, I approach every order like a custom art piece that happens to be delicious.
My vision is to create desserts that your guests cannot stop talking about, long after the last cupcake is gone.
From everyday moments to unforgettable weddings
Baked with Grace serves everything from small family gatherings to full wedding weekends. I specialize in floral cupcakes,
bouqcakes, and dessert tables that are beautiful to look at, easy to serve, and joy filled to experience.
Whether you are planning a backyard birthday, a baby shower, or a black tie wedding, my goal is the same:
to help you celebrate with desserts that feel special, intentional, and made just for you.
