Custom Cakes for Weddings & Special Occasions

~ The minimum requirement for a custom cake is 20 people ~

 

Tastings are often scheduled for custom cakes. We request a two week lead time for all custom cakes. This is necessary in order to provide you with the utmost attention and dedication to your event. There also might be special items required that would take time to create. We want to be sure and have enough time to create the masterpiece you have imagined!

 
 
 

Appointments are also required to discuss custom cakes. We realize you have a busy schedule, so we try to be flexible when scheduling. (We try not to schedule appointments or tastings between the hours of 12PM and 2PM.) Please call the bakery at least five days in advance to schedule an appointment to discuss a custom cake so we can give you our undivided attention.
