If you cancel the cake order after booking, the deposit will not be refunded. Orders must be paid in full 3 weeks prior to the event.

Question 10

Do you offer gluten free or dairy free options?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately I am unable to offer gluten or dairy free cakes at this time.

Question 11

How should I store and serve my cake?

Accepted Answer

Cakes should be stored in the fridge to maintain freshness, and are best consumed within 1-2 days of pick-up/delivery. Cakes are best served at room temperature so should be taken out of the fridge 2 hours prior to eating (even longer for large cakes).
 
Your cake will come with a cake slicing guide to ensure you receive the correct number of servings.
 
Additionally, cakes CANNOT be left in direct sunlight or the buttercream will begin to melt. If your event is outdoors during the summer, please keep cake indoors or in a cool  location until ready to serve. A melted cake is a sad cake ☹.
