Yet another business name question

Thread Starter 
Hi all, I am a lurker coming out to say hi and ask for a few suggestions on a business name.

I am in the process of getting my license for my in home bakery and need to come up with a name for the business. I am looking for a memorable name that is not to cutsy. I don't have any ideas on what I want to even start with.

I have seen some really great suggestions in the past and was hoping someone will come up with something equally great! I can make a yummy cake and am a creative person, but a great name escapes me.

My name is Shannon but I don't really want to go with Cakes by Shannon or anything like that - it's been done way to many times before. Although cakes will be my primary focus, will also be offering pies, breads, and sweet breads for sale as well.

Thanks!

when i was trying to decide name,s i was stuck between two...i chose "sugarbabies" in the end and now have that registered, but "confection perfection" was a really close second. maybe that's an idea for you???

I'm not the creative kind either but all I can suggest on whatever you decide make sure is easy to spell and that rhymes but that it is not a tongue twister either, keep it short too, where I live an ex laywer turned baker named her bake bakery
Ruth's Sweete Justice now that's suits her perfectly you just have to find something that I think when you hear it you'll know is perfect!

I love my screen name "not just cake" is a double antandra or however you spell it

for me it means more than "just cake" cookies & pastries and anything baked but also that the art of decorating cake is NOT a piece of cake, so when it comes to pricing no people is "Not Just Cake"

so maybe someday I'll own that name!

Good luck finding a name!!! icon_smile.gif
