Cakes & Cupcakes

How far in advance should I order my cake?

We recommend ordering as early as possible, especially for weekends and busy periods. Our diary can fill quickly and availability is not guaranteed until your booking is confirmed.

Do you make cakes for all occasions?

Yes. We create bespoke cakes for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, baby showers, christenings, engagements, retirements and many other celebrations.

Can I send you inspiration pictures?

Absolutely. Send us any designs, colours or ideas you like and we can use them as inspiration to create something especially for your occasion.

Can each tier be a different flavour?

Yes. Multi-tier cakes can usually have a different sponge and filling combination for each tier.

What size cake do I need?

Tell us approximately how many people you need your cake to serve and we will recommend a suitable size.

Do you make cupcakes?

Yes. We make cupcakes for birthdays, weddings, parties and other celebrations and can decorate them to complement your theme.

🌾

Allergies & Dietary Requirements

Do you cater for allergies or dietary requirements?

Please tell us about any allergies or dietary requirements when making your initial enquiry. We will confirm whether we are able to accommodate them.

Can you guarantee cakes are allergen-free?

Unless specifically agreed otherwise, we cannot guarantee that products are completely free from traces of allergens because allergenic ingredients may be handled within the same preparation environment.

Can I ask for allergen information?

Yes. Please ask us before ordering and we will provide allergen information relevant to the products you are considering.

📝

Quotes & Ordering

How do I request a quote?

Complete our online enquiry form with your event date, number of guests, preferred flavours, theme and any inspiration pictures.

Does requesting a quote reserve my date?

No. Your booking is only secured once your order has been confirmed and any required deposit has been received.

Why do cake prices vary?

Prices depend on cake size, number of tiers, flavours, decorations, design complexity and the amount of work involved.

Can I change my design after ordering?

We will try to accommodate reasonable changes, although changes close to your collection date may not be possible.

Do you accept last-minute orders?

If we have availability, we will always try to help. Design and flavour options may be more limited for short-notice orders.

💳

Deposits & Payments

Do I need to pay a deposit?

A deposit may be required to secure your booking. We will confirm the amount and payment terms with your quote.

When do I pay the remaining balance?

Your payment schedule and final payment date will be confirmed when your order is accepted.

Is my date reserved before I pay?

Where a deposit is required, your booking is not secured until we receive the deposit and confirm your order.

What happens if I cancel?

Cancellation terms depend on how close the cancellation is to your event and whether work or purchasing has already started. Please see our Terms & Conditions for full details.

🚗

Collection, Delivery & Storage

Where do I collect my cake?

Your collection arrangements, including the agreed date and time, will be confirmed as part of your order.

Do you offer delivery?

Delivery may be available depending on location, date and order size. Please ask when requesting your quote. Additional charges may apply.

How should I transport my cake?

Keep your cake flat and level. The boot or footwell of an air-conditioned vehicle is normally safer than a car seat or someone’s lap.

How should I store my cake?

Storage depends on the cake and filling. We will provide appropriate storage instructions for your particular order.

What should I do in hot weather?

Keep your cake somewhere cool and away from direct sunlight and heat. Never leave a cake inside a hot vehicle.

We cater for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, parties, family gatherings, wakes and many other occasions.

Do you cater for wakes?

Yes. We understand this can be a difficult time and aim to make arranging the catering as straightforward as possible.

Can I customise my buffet?

Yes. We can discuss your requirements and help put together a buffet suitable for your event, guest numbers and preferences.

Can I order a cake and catering together?

Yes. Let us know when making your enquiry and we can discuss your cake and catering requirements together.
