Happy Pride month, Columbus!
It’s one of my favorite times of year, where love is celebrated in all its beautiful forms. 🌈

I still have availability for some larger scale cake and cupcake orders for the weekends of June 14th-16th and June 21st-23rd. Let’s dream up something bright, bold, and authentically you! See the custom order link in my bio to get started on a cake quote. 🩷🧡💛🩵💚💜

Hello Columbus! I’m still here! I am slowly ramping back up after a long few months of moving and getting settled in my new space. While I’m not quite able to take the same quantity and scale of last year’s orders, I’m happy to say that I’m feeling restored and have ideas on how I can still do cakes while making sure I don’t burn out. 🤪

Thankful as always for the trust to just “do my thing.” Creating feels good again, as it should! I’m eager to keep it that way.

Have a cool idea for some cakes or cupcakes? Visit the link in my bio to request a quote. 🥰

As we step into winter on this solstice day, I can’t help but reflect on 2023 in awe. This was unexpectedly a really big year for Hart and Batter, and was my first official wedding season all on my own. I made big moves this year to get my home kitchen set up for success, including buying another fridge for ingredient storage and a cart for delivery. I even made an insanely huge insulated cake box that fits all my three tiered cakes. 💪

Throughout the earlier part of 2023 I attended my first ever wedding show, consulted with couples handled bookings, and fully baked/decorated several wedding cakes single-handedly for my tiny apartment kitchen. (Huge shout out to my partner Tyler for always coming with me on cake deliveries and lifting these massive cakes— sometimes without even being asked! My sister deserves a shout out too for always sharing my work, and even coming to be my delivery buddy for my very first wedding with H&B. 🥰 )

In addition to an amazing wedding season, I got to challenge myself creatively by making my first ever realistic fondant shoe, an epic black wedding cake with handpainted flowers, and even got my cake featured in a local magazine (thanks again !)

I cannot express how much your support means to a small business like mine. Thank you to everyone for your referrals, your reviews, your likes, and your shares. I only hope that 2024 is filled with even more creative and epic cakes. Take care of yourselves. 💜

It’s so important for artists and creatives to take time to make some thing that is truly for them. I’ve only begun to get a taste of this privilege as things slow down and I have the time to create just for the sake of creating.

I wanted to create something that honors the spirit of winter the way it exists in my head. I’ve always been captivated by the way the sky looks at sunset after the first big snowfall, with shades of indigo and storm cloud blue-grays blanketing the freshly fallen snow. The sun also feels absent around this time, often hanging low in the sky. But each day after winter begins, the light grows stronger each day. 🥰

I have been conceptualizing this winter solstice cake idea for over a month, and worked on bringing it to life using all my free time for the last week. Swipe to see the original sketch and conceptualization!

The entirety of the cake is styrofoam covered in fondant that is airbrushed to give a pearlescent ombre quality. The ice details are isomalt, and the sun is isomalt lit with little LEDs. I wanted to challenge myself and use a medium I dont always get to use, and I’m happy to say I only burned myself from molten sugar just once. 🙃

If i could shrink myself down to live in this winter wonderland, I definitely would!

I’m blown away by getting to see my work in a local magazine—especially one that is so geared toward all things mystical and esoteric!
I’m in such good company amongst fellow magickal businesses like

It’s been a busy summer full of wedding cakes and I’m so grateful!!!

I’m really looking forward to the cooler months, and potentially doing some moody fall/Halloween cakes, so if you or someone you know is getting married later this year or next, send them my way! I’m happy to chat cake. 🥰

Reviews like these just absolutely make my day!!! Especially since as artists, we are always our own worst critics and worried we aren’t “nailing it.” I’m thankful to have such wonderful clients who trust me to bring their creations to life. And MORE BLACK WEDDING CAKES, please!!! 🥰

07/15/2023

It was such an honor to create this absolute BEAST of a wedding cake for a lovely couple. I have been wanting to do a black wedding cake for as long as I’ve been decorating, so this is a dream come true. Congrats, Haley & Brenton! Thank you for your trust. I am honored to be a part of your special day. 🖤

Low-Sugar and Low-Carb Cupcakes Baked from my Home Bakery

Hi! I'm Crystal Hart. I've been a cake decorator since 2017 and I absolutely adore being a central part of so many important milestones in people's lives. Being surrounded by sugar in the baking world was a constant source of temptation for me, so I committed to going completely sugar-free in order to take back control. In a year, I lost over 100 pounds and am committed to keeping it off by continuing a sugar-free and low-carb lifestyle. I started Hart & Batter once I realized the need for high-quality/ low-carb cakes and cupcakes in the Columbus area. There are so many amazing keto and low-carb options here in the 614, but I missed birthday cake the most!

My goal is to provide you or someone special in your life with a sweet treat that tastes as close to the "real thing" as possible. Often holidays or other special occasions can derail our eating, but that cycle can be broken. If you or someone you love is watching their carbs/sugar, I would love the opportunity to make a special treat so that you or your loved one can stay on track. Let's make something sweet!

I am a one-woman show operating under Ohio's cottage food law, and as such, I am wearing all the hats while also working a full-time job. So if I take a little bit of time to get back to you, please forgive me!
