About us
Cakes by Babbs is a fully licensed local bakery that offers cakes and desserts of all sizes to satisfy your sweet tooth. Our goal is to provide you with sweets that are made to order, from scratch, and to our best ability! We offer several year round items but we also love to create seasonal specials! You will find our seasonal items at the different locations that we provide to : ) but we would love to make some for you too!
At this time we do not have a retail location but are using the commercial kitchen at Spire 29 in Gorham, Maine to bake our sweets. Some of our products are available for shipment but most of our baked goods are only available by delivery or pickup (We have two pickup locations; one in Falmouth and the other at our kitchen in Gorham.)

Our Story
Charles and Barbara
Thanks for stopping by our page and checking out what we are up to. We are a husband and wife baking duo. I (Barbara) am the cake baker, decorator and overall sweet lady. If you have a sweet tooth I am the one you need to talk to! My husband Charles has way to many job descriptions to list but his major one is the talker, and my backbone. If you hire us for your event you will definitely have the pleasure of working with both of us : )
