Meet The Baker!

Mads Eatz is a custom cake bakery based in Nashville, TN, specializing in all things celebration. From birthdays to weddings and everything in between, each cake is thoughtfully designed to feel entirely one-of-a-kind. My goal is to create a cake as unique as you, how fun!

Every cake is made with intention and high-quality ingredients, giving just as much care given to the inside as the outside, because there is nothing quite like a beautiful and tasty cake. Our menu rotates seasonally to highlight stand out ingredients and playful flavor combinations, while always offering a backbone of well-loved classics (peek at our menu for the current line-up).

My name is Mads (short for Madeline), and this bakery began as a side project while I was working full-time as a Registered Dietitian. Baking and cake design quickly became the perfect bridge between my love for creativity, food science, and community. There is nothing I love more than being your go-to cake girl for life’s big and small moments. I feel honored to be a part of the women-owned small business community in Nashville, and am so thankful for this bakery. What a joy it is to create for and collaborate with the coolest people around, including you! MWAH!
