Job Title: Baker & Cupcake Decorator
Company: Sweet n Skinny
Location: North Scottsdale, AZ (Cottage-Industry Bakery)
Employment Type: Part-Time / Variable Hours
Sweet n Skinny is a boutique, small-batch baking business serving the North Scottsdale area. We specialize in beautifully crafted cupcakes, custom cake orders, and lighter dessert options that don’t sacrifice flavor or fun. Our focus is on creativity, consistency, and a little sparkle in every batch.
We’re growing and heading into our busy event season, so we’re looking for a talented, dependable Baker & Cupcake Decorator to help a few days a week—with flexibility for more hours when business ramps up.
As our Baker & Cupcake Decorator, you’ll assist with all aspects of production—from baking to decorating to packaging and cleanup. You should love working with buttercream, fondant, and color palettes, and be able to make beautiful, consistent cupcakes and cakes.
This is a part-time position, but you know how this business goes—some weeks are full-time, some are lighter. Currently, we’re gearing up for event season, so expect to start with a couple of days per week, with the potential for more as orders increase.
