FAQ

Welcome to our FAQ page. If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, please contact us through our website or social media.

Ordering

For standard items we require minimum 2 business days lead time. For custom cakes and event catering we need a minimum of 7 days but recommend 2 weeks. This ensures we have enough time to cater to every specification and deliver you something truly unique.

No minimum applies for standard online orders. Custom event orders may require a minimum spend depending on complexity.

Orders can be placed directly through our website. Simply add items to your cart, fill in any variant dropdowns, select your delivery date, and complete checkout.

Flavours & Dietary Options

Yes, we have standard store items that are gluten free and can make our custom cakes gluten free at no extra cost.

We unfortunately do not have any vegan items in our standard selection but can offer certain flavours for custom cakes. Please note that due to the nature of vegan buttercream and ingredients we may be limited with some design options. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions, we will do our best to explain the options available to you.

While some cakes do not contain nuts, all products are prepared in a kitchen that handles nuts, dairy, eggs, and gluten. We do our absolute best to avoid cross contamination but cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment.

We can use inspiration photos as a guide, but handmade cakes will always have slight variations. We aim to create something unique while matching the requested style as closely as possible.

Storage & Serving

Cakes are best stored in the box they come in in the fridge. For buttercream cakes we recommend taking out 1 to 2 hours before serving to let the buttercream come up to room temperature for the best eating experience.

For best flavour and texture, cakes are best enjoyed within 2–4 days.

Serving guides are listed on each cake product page. Portions vary depending on how the cake is sliced.

Cancellations & Changes

Small changes may be possible if requested early enough. Major changes close to the event date may not be available.

Deposits for custom cakes are generally non-refundable. Refund eligibility depends on how much notice is provided before the scheduled pickup or delivery date.
