Meet the baker
Hi, I’m Antonio.
…the cake creator behind Pannetony Bakery. I’m also a Civil Engineer.
For more than 10 years, baking and cake design have been part of my creative life. Surprisingly, cake design and civil engineering have a lot in common: precision, structure, problem-solving and attention to detail.
What started as a passion grew into a space where I combine creativity and technique to create cakes that feel personal, modern and thoughtfully designed.
I love working directly with my clients. You can come to me with a specific idea, inspiration photos, a color palette, a theme or even just a feeling you want your celebration to have. From there, we work together to develop a design that makes sense for your event.
I also create many of my own custom cake toppers, allowing me to personalize the smallest details and make the entire cake feel cohesive. Every cake is made individually for the person and celebration behind it.
Your idea. My creativity.@pannetonybakery →

Every cake begins with your vision. Together, we create a custom design that reflects your celebration, your style and your story. Whether you arrive with a specific inspiration or give me creative freedom, each detail is thoughtfully adapted and handcrafted to feel personal to you.

The cake
Beautifully made.
Thoughtfully finished.
I specialize in custom cakes finished in buttercream. Ganache may be used when a design or structure needs extra stability, while fondant is reserved for selected decorative details and toppers.
Every flavor, finish and visual detail is considered together so the cake feels complete from the first look to the last bite.
More than cake
A complete dessert experience.
Custom cakes are only part of what I create. I also design dessert tables coordinated with your cake, event colors, theme and overall celebration.
Instead of choosing from a fixed list, we can build a combination that fits your guest count, event style and vision.
