Q. What Can I Expect To Pay For A Wedding Cake?
A. We do not have a general price list because each cake is one-of-a-kind. All of our cakes are custom and priced based on required servings, flavor, and design details. We will gladly give you a quote during your wedding cake consultation.
Q. Do you deliver?
A. Delivery fees are additional and determined based on the distance, travel time, and set-up requirements.
Q. What is a groom's cake and do you make them?
A. A groom's cake is traditionally a chocolate cake iced in chocolate buttercream. It is always smaller than the bridal cakes. Yes, groom's cakes are available upon request.
Q. Who decorates the cake table?
A. All fabric, lights, flowers, greenery, or anything else on or around the cake for decorating purposes is the responsibility of the bride/groom, or their decorator and florist.
Q. Do you offer cake tastings?
A. Yes we do offer cake tastings during consultation. We allow you to sample the cake flavors whilst viewing our portfolio.
Q. Is it safe to place fresh flowers on a cake?
A. Not all flowers are safe to place on a cake. Speak with your florist about safety concerns. Flowers that have been sprayed with pesticides should not be placed on your cake. Some flowers are toxic for people and their juices may leach into your cake and possibly make people sick. Your florist will know which flowers are toxic for people and should not be placed on a cake. Gumpaste flowers are a safe alternative to toxic flowers.
Q. Can you match my wedding colors?
A. We can match our cake to your colors. Bringing in a color sample is the best way to get it to match as closely as possible.
Q. What shapes can my cake be?
A. We have a variety of styles which you can choose from.
Q. Can I have multiple shapes in my design?
A. Yes, the tiers of your cake can be of various shapes at no additional charge.
Q. What is the minimum order time?
