cake & treat notes

The individual picking up must be 21 or older *Photo ID required at time of pickup.  


CAKE NOTES

  1. All details are handmade and edible (unless otherwise noted) with the exception of any required supports 
  2. I will not be responsible for consumption of any non-edible items placed on your cake/treat, such as flowers, wires, pearls, ribbons, etc. Any non-edible items must be removed by the client before the cake or treat is consumed.  It is also recommended to remove any 3D decorations prior to cutting the cake.
  3. Standard regular round cake height is approximately 3.5”-4” high (4 layers of cake, three layers of filling). Taller cake height would be an additional cost.  Cake breakdown is based on standard cake height unless a “taller” cake is requested. The "taller" cake option will be itemized in the breakdown/quote if applicable. 


CAKE STORAGE AND DISPLAY

  1. Store/display the cake in a cool dry place. If you refrigerate your cake, you can remove the cake from the refrigerator 1-2 hours prior to the event to let the cake gradually return to room temperature prior to serving. 
  2. **Cakes with certain fillings: fruit filling and/or cream cheese, whipping cream or mousse must be refrigerated. **  You can bring out the cake with these types of fillings to sit out at room temperature 45 minutes to 1 hour before slicing and serving. The cake should only be left out of the fridge for a maximum of two hours and placed back in the fridge if not consumed. 
  3. Once the cake has been cut, the exposed cake should be covered with plastic wrap and then refrigerated to keep it from drying out. Place a sheet of plastic wrap on the cut portion of the cake before refrigerating to prevent it from drying out.  

- Wedding cakes with the top tier being used for the 1 Year Anniversary tradition will receive special instructions and a complimentary container for preserving the cake properly for the 1st Anniversary for one year later.  

***Cupcakes should be placed in an air tight container to maintain freshness.  

allergy disclaimer

I am not responsible for any medical issues that may arise from consuming the product. Client is to disclose any known allergen of them or their guests at the time of cake consultation. While I do have processes in place to minimize the risk of cross-contamination, I do not have segregated production ability, so cross-contamination of ingredients is possible. Due to cross contamination, I can never guarantee that product is 100% free of allergens. Client understands in the case of an extreme allergen or medical condition, I strongly encourage the client order through a specialized bakery.

pricing policies

  1. Pricing is based on serving size, amount of detail, and material cost.   Custom cakes and treats are labor intensive to make which is reflected in the cost. Inflation is also a factor.   Certain options can be removed or changed to bring down the cost if needed. 
  2. For orders placed more than 45 days before the event date, I reserve the right to change the price indicated in the breakdown/quote up until 45 days before the due date in the event of fluctuation in the prices of my supplies, fuel prices, and/or unforeseen economic or other circumstances.   
  3. Rush Fee: An additional fee will be applied to any accepted short notice orders. Short notice orders would require rearranging my schedule to fit in your order as well as my costs may be higher having to get certain supplies on short notice. If the Rush Fee applies, it will be noted in the breakdown/quote. 

placing an order

  1. Ideally, orders must be placed 1-2 weeks prior to your event (at least one month prior for larger orders)  to ensure availability and allow time for getting supplies and prep work for the order.  Please note this timeframe may be subject to change based on availability due to schedule changes or orders that become booked ahead of you.  
  2. All orders are taken on a first come, first serve basis and availability varies.  
  3. A confirmation by you and a deposit are required to place the order.  The confirmation and deposit must be received no later than the date specified in the breakdown/quote.  This allows for time to get supplies and do prep work.   
  4. An order will not be placed without confirmation by you and without a deposit payment made.   
  5. Once you confirm your order and the deposit payment has been made, you will receive an email to book the order which will place you on my production schedule/calendar and supplies for your order will be purchased.  
  6. An email will be sent for confirmed orders closer to the date of the event to confirm all the details.
