Our Story

Trip Flops Bakery began with a simple question from my daughter after she announced her engagement:

"Mom, will you make my wedding cake?"

There was just one problem—I had never made a wedding cake before.

With six months until her wedding day, I set out to learn everything I could about creating a dessert that was not merely beautiful, but unforgettable. What began as a challenge quickly became an obsession with flavor, technique, and the pursuit of extraordinary desserts.

Along the way, I discovered the world of thick, bakery-style 6-ounce cookies and found myself asking another question:

"Why don't we have these in Savannah?"

When I couldn't find what I was looking for, I decided to create it myself.

Today, Trip Flops Bakery is known for thoughtfully crafted desserts that prioritize flavor above all else. Every recipe is developed in-house, with an emphasis on unexpected pairings, premium ingredients, and the belief that dessert should be an experience rather than an afterthought.

One of my favorite creative outlets is incorporating the flavors of cocktails and fine liqueurs into select desserts. You'll find those influences woven throughout our cakes, cheesecakes, and our Culinary Curator's Table collection, where each flavor tells a story inspired by travel, culture, and the art of gathering around something truly delicious.

What began as a mother's promise to her daughter has become a passion for creating desserts worth remembering.

Why Trip Flops?

Trip Flops isn't really about flip-flops.

It's about the traveler.

The one who can't resist taking the scenic route, wandering down an unfamiliar street, or following a story simply because it sounds interesting. The one who always seems to have a pair of flip-flops tucked into a suitcase and a little extra room for adventure.

Savannah is a city built on stories. Some are romantic. Some are mysterious. Some are charmingly strange. Many are discovered by accident while wandering beneath moss-draped oaks or navigating centuries-old cobblestone streets.

And sometimes, while exploring, you trip over something unexpected—a hidden courtyard, a fascinating piece of history, a remarkable conversation, or a dessert you'll spend years talking about.

That's the spirit behind Trip Flops.

A love of exploration. An openness to new experiences. A collection of memorable stories gathered along the way.

We simply happen to tell ours through dessert.
