Meet Liz Rios

Founder & Creative Director of Sevenlizcakes

I believe a cake can be more than something beautiful on a table. It can carry emotion, celebrate a chapter of life, and become part of a memory that stays long after the celebration ends.

Sevenlizcakes was shaped through my own journey of resilience, reinvention, and creativity. What began as a personal path became an atelier where artistry, refined flavor, and meaningful storytelling come together.

Today, I create wedding and celebration cakes with an editorial approach — balancing sculptural design, handcrafted detail, elegant proportions, and flavors created to be as memorable as the cake itself.

THE BEGINNING

I wasn’t born in a kitchen. I was born in a story that demanded courage.

My journey into pastry was never simply about learning how to bake. It grew from a life that taught me resilience, discipline, and the courage to rebuild with intention.

Creativity became more than a craft. It became a way to transform experience into something beautiful — something that could bring meaning, celebration, and possibility into the lives of others.

Over time, that personal transformation became Sevenlizcakes: an atelier where artistry and purpose meet, and where every creation is designed to honor a moment worth remembering.

WHERE ART MEETS PURPOSE

Creating beauty with intention.

My work is rooted in more than technique. I create experiences that celebrate life, tell a story, and carry meaning — whether through a bespoke cake, a refined dessert, or the knowledge I share through education and mentoring.

01

Transformative Empathy

I create with sensitivity and intention, understanding that every celebration carries a story behind it.

02

Precision & Luxury Creativity

Refined design, disciplined technique, and artistic detail come together in every piece I create.

03

Brand Storytelling

Every design, finish, and presentation is considered as part of a larger experience — one that communicates value and emotion.

Human-Centered Education

Through courses and mentoring, I teach practical skills with the goal of helping others create, grow, and build with purpose.

PURPOSE BEYOND PASTRY

Creating can change more than a table.

Sevenlizcakes grew from a personal transformation, and that experience continues to shape the way I teach, mentor, and build this brand.

Through Sevenlizcakes Academy, I share practical pastry education, pricing, packaging, presentation, and business strategy with creators who want to strengthen their skills and build something sustainable with confidence and intention.

My purpose is not only to teach technique. It is to help others see possibility in what they create — and to turn knowledge, discipline, and creativity into greater independence and opportunity.
