Good to know

More answers on the ordering page.

How far ahead do I need to order a custom cake?

Single-tier cakes need 3 days' notice, 2-tier cakes 7 days and 3-tier cakes 14 days. You can book up to 90 days ahead. Need it sooner? Rush pickup is available on most sizes for 20% more, or call us and we will do our best to help.

How much does a custom cake cost?

Custom cakes start at $125 for a 6 inch, 3 layer cake that serves 10 to 12. An 8 inch cake is $175, a 10 inch cake is $250, and tiered cakes run from $300 to $525. Some fillings, finishes and decorations add to the price, and detailed fondant work is priced after you order.

Do you make eggless cakes?

Yes. Choose the eggless chocolate sponge or tick "Eggless" under Dietary when you build your cake. You can also ask for nut-free ingredients.

Will my cake look exactly like my inspiration photo?

Your photos guide the colours, style and details. Every cake is made by hand, so yours will be its own version of the design you love.

Can I add a name or message?

Yes. Choose a piped message or script lettering, then write the exact wording in the order note.
