Picing and General Information

What make my cakes special?

I strive to make not only make delicious tasting cakes, but to also make amazing pieces of edible art.  I bake using cage free/hormone free eggs and Shatto milk which is from locally raised cows (not treated with rbST or rbGH).  Then to top it all off I make my own fondant too, helping to eliminate preservatives.  Each cake has hours of love invested; from design to pick up.  For this reason I require a $40 minimum order for any project regardless of size or occasion.  I do not offer sheet style cakes or Barbie/doll cakes.  Highly detailed items such as fondant or gum paste flowers, 3D figures or any other labor intensive decorations start at $5.00 apiece.  Tiered (6" with an 8") first birthday cakes receive a free 4x2" smash cake or discounted 6" cake if requested.





How much will my cake cost?


My minimum order is a 6" round cake that serves up to 10 and starts at $40 for a basic cake flavor and simplistic design.  A good way to estimate approximate prices for any occasion (birthday, wedding, etc.) is to multiply how many servings you need by $5.00.  That will give you a rough idea of the price range.  You could end up less or more depending on the design and detailing.  Sugar flowers will generally add to the price along with heavy detailing and figures.  Please note I do not create character cakes or licensed figurines. I can create a cake with the general theme and you can add store bought figurines after pick up if you choose. 





When to book your date?


The earlier the better!  Since this is a one man show and I only take on a limited amount of projects per month, I end up having to turn down quite a few requests.  Your date is booked once I have received a nonrefundable deposit of half the total cost of your order.  The remaining balance is due one month prior to the event date. If full payment has not been made your order will be canceled and no refund with be given.  If you should need to cancel your order a refund of anything paid above the deposit amount may be granted as long as a minimum of 2 weeks’ notice has been given and no work has begun on your order (flowers and figures are often made in advance to allow time for drying).   If the balance is not paid one month before your booked event date your cake will not be made.





Do you charge more for wedding cakes?


Absolutely not!  Every cake is priced based on the design and time needed to create that specific project, not the occasion it was created for. 





Is there a delivery option?


Delivery is free within 15 miles on all cakes over $100, but this must be discussed and decided when the cake is booked or it may not be available for your date and time.  Delivery may be available for locations further than 15 miles away at a rate of $2.50/mile.
