Best Houston Wedding Cake Artists

Buttercream Houston

“After years of training and experience, I was fortunate enough to work alongside Upscale Chef’s and develop the skills needed for delicate pastries. Once I became a mom, I wanted to enhance that joy in my life. The decision was clear- I would combine my catering experience and surround myself with LOVE and kindness; it was the perfect recipe for our new Small Business ‘Buttercream Houston’. We want to create beauty through pastries, that couples and families can enjoy for years to come. We proudly serve the greater Houston area and Brazoria County!” – Esmerleda, Head Pastry Chef of Buttercream Houston
