area ranges from Nottingham to Kennett Square and as far as Exton. For those who want to taste a Tiers of Joy product before ordering a cake or cupcakes, individually packaged cupcakes are available at Landhope stores in Oxford and Unionville, as well as Triple Fresh in Coatesville. Knowing that gluten is not the only dietary problem people face, Masscotte is prepared to work with individuals who have other issues to contend with. “If someone has other allergies, if they are allergic to dairy or soy, if someone wants something, I’ll try to make it,” Masscotte said. “If they’re allergic to something and they feel like they can’t eat anything, I will make it for them so they can enjoy.” Most of her orders are for basic vanilla, chocolate or lemon cakes, but Masscotte has also made coconut, red velvet and carrot cakes, plus she offers a variety of different fillings and different buttercream flavors. Masscotte is also able to offer vegan cakes with no egg or dairy products. She tries to keep her products all natural, including the cake decoration. Instead of fondant, she prefers to use real flowers or party decorations to top off special occasion cakes. Prices are slightly higher than conventional cakes because of the higher price of the ingredients, particularly for vegan cakes. All sizes of cakes are available, and Masscotte will even tackle a wedding cake.
