Head Chef & Owner, Jennifer Bunce, has loved baking (and eating!) desserts, especially cake, since she was a child. However, only semi-recently did she turn her passion into a full time business. Post-college, she found success in Event Planning and Public Relations. But after 5 years of the corporate grind, she knew she had to find a “sweeter” way of living. She decided to turn her hobby of baking and cake decorating into a career so she attended the Institute of Culinary Education in NYC.

After graduating with high honors in Pastry Arts, she interned with famed bakery, Confetti Cakes with Elisa Strauss. She has also studied with Kate Sullivan at CakePower, International Sugar Artist Lorraine McKay as well as cake decorating pro Chef Toba Garrett. After leaving a pastry chef position at Sweetiepie Restaurant in NYC, Jennifer established The Hudson Cakery in May 2009.

The Hudson Cakery ™ has been featured in The New York Times, NJ Brides Magazine, The Knot Magazine, NJ Contemporary Bride Magazine, Palisades Magazine, 201 Bride Magazine as well as various online resources like WeddingWire.com, The Knot.com, Style Me Pretty, Green Wedding Shoes, Wedding Chicks, Yes Bride, Project Wedding, The Cake Blog and more. We were also the The Knot Best of Weddings 2011 Pick as well as the WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards™ 2011.

We are located in Weehawken, NJ and we are by appointment only.
