Velvet Sky Bakery

"This sophisticated bakeshop & cafe with sidewalk seats offers elegant treats & gluten-free options."

Velvet Sky Bakery is a scratch-style dessert bakery and custom cake studio located at 307 Leedom Street in Jenkintown, PA, offering custom wedding cakes, cupcakes, and 3D sculpted cakes. Led by owner and head designer Jordan Harvey, the bakery is known for hand-sculpted buttercream and fondant cakes baked from scratch using all-natural ingredients, with gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan options available across nearly all offerings. Velvet Sky Bakery opened in 2011; Jordan Harvey trained under Ron Ben Israel and Elisa Strauss for over five years before returning to Philadelphia to open the studio. In 2021, the bakery competed in and won on Netflix's Sugar Rush (Season 2, Episode 4). The bakery was named in Daily Candy's Top Ten Bakeries in Philadelphia, was awarded Small Business of the Year by the EMCCC in 2015, and has been featured in publications including FOX29, Philadelphia Wedding Magazine, and The Philadelphia Inquirer. Based in Jenkintown, PA, Velvet Sky Bakery serves the greater Philadelphia area and beyond. Couples consistently highlight Jordan's ability to match or exceed inspiration photos, willingness to accommodate last-minute changes and dietary restrictions (including dairy-free and vegan), a convenient at-home tasting option, and cakes that drew ongoing compliments from guests on both design and flavor.
