Even though I knew about it, I was surprised too! The “experience” is so unique and beyond personal. It is the ultimate gift. - Beth

A Sweet Celebration of Who You Are

heARTcakes are personalized paintings based on your unique character

If you were a cupcake, what flavor would you be?

Based on your unique personality and preferences, we can determine which flavor of cupcake represents who you are. We pair that with your favorite place and the things you love, and then we create a heARTcakes painting that embodies you! The cupcake flavor is determined by matching the answers from a questionnaire with our database of flavors. Finally, we craft a recipe card with 'Baking Instructions' written based on who you are. It reads like someone giving your soul a big ol’ hug!

Helping others feel appreciated for who they are is one of the most meaningful things we can do in life.

When someone shares the beauty they see in us – whether it’s a parent, mentor, teacher, spouse, or friend – we stand taller, shine brighter, and rediscover the light within ourselves. And that's precisely what heARTcakes represents – it's not merely about cupcakes, but rather it’s a sweet celebration of who you are. It's a heartfelt gift that serves as a beautiful reminder that you are loved, you are wonderful, and above all, you are seen.

MORE THAN A CUPCAKE

It’s perfect gift for the people who make life sweeter everyday!

What’s it like to unbox a heARTcakes painting?

There’s so much love, care and attention to detail in each heARTcakes box. Everything is packaged bakery-style. The box looks like it’s filled with a dozen cupcakes (a removable 10x13 art print). The recipient is encouraged to read their recipe card first, which is where they will find their heARTcakes name, flavor and “baking instructions”. The painting is framed and wrapped in sprinkle covered paper with a bow for the ultimate reveal. There is a keepsake with their heARTcakes name on it and a tube of sprinkles to satisfy their sweet tooth.

“I truly never dreamed it would be such a magical experience to unbox a piece of artwork. The art itself was AMAZING, but the overall experience was equally magical.” - Emily

A MESSAGE FROM THE ARTIST

My life's story is about believing in the power of being seen. Even from a young age I learned that words of truth and beauty can inspire change in the lives of others. I've experienced both sides of this—being seen and helping others feel seen. Combining this belief with my love for painting and cake, I created heARTcakes, a sweet and creative way to help others feel appreciated and cherished for who they are.

-Krystal Bilberry

  • The love and attention to detail and the branding you put into this and it is phenomenal! The sentimentality that this represents is something I didn’t expect. I see my daughter in this cupcake, she sees herself in this cupcake. It’s like a special time capsule of her essence captured in this painting forever. Thank you so much.

Honestly I love absolutely everything you did, every item you packaged added SO MUCH amazing charm and value! You really feel like you’re opening a portal to another world when you see all the things you have packed inside.
