Catered Cakes is based out of Atlanta, GA and is owned by Kevin Ahsford. Kevin spent nearly 7 years bring his dream from conception to reality after winning an award for his Raspberry White Chocolate Cheesecake. The New Orleans native has been featured in magazines such as Southern Living, The Atlanta-Journal Constitution and The Chicago Sun-Times.

Catered Cakes features over 50 selections that include cheesecakes, bread puddings, cupcakes and more. Their signature desserts include Tropical Carrot Cake, Island Breeze Cheesecake and New Orleans Style Bread Pudding with a Bourbon-Rum Sauce.

Located on Washington Road in East Point, GA, Sammy Cheezecake has been a staple in the community for many years. I first met the owner Sammy during a Symposium where he shared his story. From humble beginnings of selling cheesecakes out of his truck in the hot Georgia heat, Sammy went on to open his own store several years later.

When you stop by to get some of his awesome desserts, take a look on the wall and you'll notice a picture of Sammy with Chick-Fil-A Founder S. Truett Cathy! If he has the time, ask him to share the awesome store of how Mr. Cathy became a personal mentor.
