FAQs

Ordering

  • Early is always better! It ensures that we have the time and materials needed to make your desserts. Orders for special events such as birthdays, anniversaries, and baby showers should be placed 4 weeks in advance. Weddings should be booked 3 - 6 months in advance. Please note that weekends do fill up quickly. However, we recommend you inquire with us as soon as you decide to have us make your desserts. We may have the date available even if the date is sooner than mentioned above.

  • Prices vary depending on the size, detail, & intricacy of your design. Please fill out the inquiry form, and we will email you with more information.

  • Our most popular cake flavors are lemon raspberry, chocolate toffee, and banana toffee. Because we also make dessert tables for weddings and other events, many of our most loved items are not even cakes!

    Here are a few fan-favorite desserts: fruit tarts, vanilla brioche donuts, brownies, banana pudding, and chocolate chip cookies.

  • At this time, we make GF cakes, cupcakes, and chocolate chip cookies. Please be advised that we are not a dedicated GF bakery, so highly sensitive customers may find our products are not right for them.

  • We have an awesome tasting experience that you can do at home! Order a wedding cake tasting box and enjoy six slices of cake, including our best-selling Lemon Raspberry cake, as well as a Spotify playlist, samples of our other treats, and complimentary delivery to your home. Each box is $100 and is the perfect way to enjoy cake tasting as a couple, as a fun event with your loved ones, or as a bridal party.

  • Yes, we require a non-refundable retainer of 50% to book your desserts. This retainer covers the cost of our communication with you, brainstorming ideas, and securing items for your dessert, even if you have to cancel your event.
