So there it was. The real reason why she didn't want me to make the cakes. I told her I found it to be an honor to help her and she knows I love doing it. I told her I would still like to make the cakes if she would let me but she said no. So I just let it go.

Well gosh, she was probably feeling somewhat the same way that she made you feel. She probably really does want to help out as well and maybe enjoys it. If it were me I would probably suggest she just bring an appetizer or cookies or something, something that wouldnt cramp your style, but would allow her to feel useful and appreciated too. Then maybe she will want you to do the cakes in exchange.
