Gomez’s bakery offers one of the largest and most comprehensive cupcake menus in the country with unique and festive flavors, including Peppermint Patty, Apple Bliss, and Lemon Drop.
To ensure guests can safely celebrate National Cupcake Day, Patty’s Cakes & Desserts has placed floor markers to designate proper social distancing and will require guests to wear masks.
