Styles of Cakes

How do I get started?

When ordering a birthday cake, please note the style or theme of your party, the # of guests that you expect to feed, what you would like the cake to say, and the flavor you will desire to serve. Please call in advance of your special day.I work on a first come, first serve basis. Although I can often squeeze in last minute orders, please do not expect a cake the next day.

When ordering a wedding cake, the first thing to do is call to set-up an appointment. Please bring a color swatch if you want a specific color matched on your cake, also any pictures or sketches, styles, of cakes you like. Note the # of guests you will be expecting to serve, as this will help determine the size of cake you will need.The theme or style of your wedding, and any cake topper you may have purchased.

It is STRONGLY recommended to book or reserve your day with a deposit as much in advance as possible. Again, I work on a first come, first serve basis and this will prevent dissappointment of unavailablity.

If you decide you would like to hire my services for your cake, please be prepared to put down a good faith deposit. This is NON-REFUNDABLE unless of a death in the immediate family. It is usually 1/4th of the total balance expected of your grand total. It is then credited to your balance due. This secures your date and allows me to purchase supplies that apply to your cake.

Most birthday cakes are payable upon pick-up, unless prior arrangements have been made. [Exceptions may be made for large birthday or tiered cakes] Out of town orders may be asked to mail check in advance.

All wedding cakes must be paid for in full the week prior to the wedding.

At this time I do accept credit or debit cards. Cash or check is acceptable, as well. Paypal is another option, but there is a additional $25 fee to use this payment method.

The week prior to the wedding I will call you and we will discuss, at this time, all of the listed: delivery time, any changes to your order [i.e.- adding or subracting servings] and address any additional questions or concerns you may have.

Upon delivery I supply a cutting guide, a box for the top cake, and a list of returnables, where applicable. These items may or may not require a deposit. Any broken or missing items are your responsibility and you will be required to pay for replacements. 

Most stands or cake accessories are available through me. A rental fee will often apply and a deposit may be required. I am open to using another stand or plateau you may have or wish to rent elsewhere, however I may ask to see it prior, to assure it will support your cake appropriately.

All birthday or all occasion cakes can be picked up at the cafe at the arranged time. It is strongly recommended you pay delivery fee of $1 a mile for wedding and tiered cakes. I do understand budgets, so if you want to have it picked up by yourself or another trusted person, a waiver must be signed at pick-up time deferring all the ownership and responsibility to you.
