Dakar Sugar Art
Dakar Sugar Art — Custom wedding cakes & pastry
Dakar Sugar Art has spent 2 years baking for celebrations across Dakar and the wider region — from intimate ceremonies of thirty guests to five-tier centrepieces. Every cake is made to order in small batches — no freezer stock, and the flavours are chosen at the tasting rather than off a card, and the result is a record of the day as it actually ran rather than a version assembled to a formula.
A tasting covers flavours, tiers, dietary needs and how the cake is displayed. What you book includes a tasting box, a sketch of the finished cake and delivery set up on site. The plan is written down and shared, so you, your other suppliers and the venue are working from the same document — which is what stops the small things going wrong when the day gets busy.
Based in Dakar, Dakar Sugar Art works in fr / en, with bookings from 200 000 XOF. Send the date and a rough outline and a written, itemised quote comes back within 6h. Peak-season Saturdays are usually taken six to nine months in advance, so it is worth asking early — and there is no charge until you accept.

The planning call made the difference — by the time the day arrived everyone knew exactly what was happening.
Our families are demanding and both sides were delighted, which does not happen often. Handled the whole day with real warmth.
Arrived early, set up without any fuss and stayed until everything was packed down. Professional from start to finish.
Worth every franc. The quality was noticeably above what we saw from the other quotes we collected.
We changed the plan twice in the last month and it was never a problem. Calm, organised and completely reliable.
Answered every question quickly in the run-up, and on the day just quietly got on with it. The difference was obvious.
Booking was straightforward and the written quote matched the final invoice exactly. No surprises, which is all you want.
Blended everything so smoothly that nobody sat down all night. Several guests asked us for the contact before they left.
