Lotus Sweet Treats

Hi, I'm Elizabeth

I'm the baker, designer, color enthusiast, perfectionist, and creative heart behind Lotus Sweet Treats. I believe desserts should do more than satisfy a sweet tooth. They should tell a story, bring people together, and become part of the memories you'll look back on long after the celebration is over. That's exactly why I started Lotus Sweet Treats.

Long before I was creating custom desserts, I spent more than 15 years leading large-scale projects as a Senior Project Manager. While the industries have changed, one thing hasn't: I love bringing big ideas to life. Today, I use those same planning, organization, and problem-solving skills to thoughtfully design every order so you can spend less time worrying and more time enjoying your celebration.

Where the name comes from

Lotus Sweet Treats is deeply personal to me. The lotus is Egypt's national flower and a tribute to my heritage, a symbol of beauty, resilience, and new beginnings. Our homemade baklava is made from my family's recipe, lovingly passed down through generations. Both remind me that the sweetest traditions are the ones shared with the people we love.

I love a challenge

If we've ever worked together (or if you're about to), you'll quickly learn one thing about me: I absolutely love a challenge. The more unique your vision, the happier I become. Whether it's matching the perfect shade of green, bringing an inspiration photo to life, or creating something that's never been done before, I genuinely enjoy the creative process as much as the finished product.

Because to me, desserts aren't just desserts. They're conversation starters. They're the details guests photograph before taking the first bite. They're the centerpiece that brings people together. They're part of the memories you'll cherish for years to come.

“The more unique your vision, the happier I become.”

What I make

Cake pops in classic flavors and custom themes, photo and logo pops for brand events, and walnut baklava cut and rolled by hand, plus new seasonal additions as they're introduced. Every order is made fresh in my home kitchen for your event. Nothing sits on a shelf, nothing comes out of a freezer case.

Where I serve

Pickup is in Richmond, just southwest of Houston. Local delivery is available within a set radius of the Houston metro, with round-trip mileage included in the delivery fee. I do not ship. If you are unsure whether your address is in range, send a note through the contact page and I will check it for you.

A few sweet things about me

  • If there's music playing, there's a very good chance you'll find me on the dance floor.
  • I'm a nationally certified yoga instructor and love both teaching and taking classes.
  • Our baklava is made from my family's generations-old recipe.
  • Riding my bike is one of my favorite ways to recharge.
  • If you tell me, “I have a crazy idea,” you've already made my day.
  • I'm obsessed with color palettes and believe the smallest details create the biggest impact.
  • Lotus Sweet Treats is named after Egypt's national flower as a tribute to my heritage.

Every celebration tells a story. I'd be honored to help make yours a little sweeter.

“Yall! I DONT EVEN LIKE CAKE POPS!!! But I LOVE Lotus cake pops! They’re so so so fresh and delicious! They don’t stick in your teeth and aren’t gummy or sickeningly sweet like other cake pops I’ve tried. I ordered cake pops for a friend’s baby shower and they were ocean themed with mermaid tails, sea shells, and sharks! I got to choose the flavors and picked red velvet, lemon (my favorite), and funfetti which is her birthday flavor! All of them were absolutely amazing! The detail, my jaw actually dropped! They were incredibly adorable, well made and ridiculously delicious! There were no left over cake pops from the shower and I got numerous compliments! Liz is so kind and creative, which is the best part because she does custom orders and really matched the vision I had for the cake pops! I will for sure be ordering from her again. As far as pricing goes, you get what you pay for, and I have no regrets! All orders are customized to what you want for the event. I will for sure be getting more. #TakeMyMoney”

“I am a huge fan of her cake pops! She did some for my daughter‘s birthday, and they were a huge hit, her attention to detail and creativity reflects in her deserts. I also tried her loaves and they are also very delicious! But what stands out the most is her contagious, energy and her appreciation for her customers. We’ll definitely keep using her for all of our family events and of course, can’t forget to stop by the pop-up shops for a weekend treat. Thank you, Liz!!! -Olivia”

“I recently ordered the cake pops and absolutely fell in love! I didn’t think I was even a cake pop person until I tried them. They’re perfectly moist, beautifully decorated, and made with so much love. The red velvet, cinnamon roll, and cookies and cream were some of our favorites, but every flavor was delicious. You really can’t go wrong!”

“I ordered a set of cake pops and they were DELICIOUS! The sweetness is at a perfect level and the decorations on the cake pops were so cute! Another time I ordered baklava and a blueberry loaf which was so good. My mom and dad enjoyed the baklava and both don't usually like sweets but this time they did! I would definitely buy from her again. 😋”
