What are your business hours?
Our office business hours differ from our baking hours. Office hours are from 9am - 3pm. I am busy creating during baking hours and am not always on social media. Messages can be missed, so therefore all orders and communications are via website system. Emails and website orders are replied to within 24 hours by our office.
-
Do I have to order cakes strictly from your website ?
Whilst we love that people love the designs that we create, we understand that you may like a different style. we do not do a straigh copy.

Do you do tastings?
Yes, tasting cakes are baked to order, one week notice is required for these. Sample boxes can be arranged with 3 - 6 flavours. Please contact us for prices.

How do I store the cake ?
Our fondant cakes have been shelf life tested at an accredited food laboratory.
Cakes are best stored at ambient/room temperature 23c.
In the warmer weather store cakes near air conditioning to keep cool.
Fondant cakes are not stored in the fridge, as this will ruin the fondant once taken out. Store in a cool place away from heat and direct sunlight.
Cut with a knife dipped in hot water for a clean cut. -
What is a coffee and dessert portion?
A coffee portion is 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm x height of the cake, typically known as a finger slice. Dessert portion 2.5 cm x 5 cm x the height of the cake. Our cake height is approx 6 inches.
-
I'm not sure what size cake I need ?
Cake sizes are calculated on an industry standard to ensure you have enough cake. If you have a main dessert as part of your menu, then a coffee serve is required. If you have no other desserts or sweets offered a main portion is required. If a dessert table is being arranged a coffee portion is required as your guests may enjoy other treats as well. This is a guide as to how cake is serve and calculated, however if you prefer to have left over cake, serve a larger portion or would like the cake to be all eaten by the end of your event please let us know so cake sizes can be adjusted. We are not responsible for the cutting of cake at your venue
-
How long can I keep the cake after my event ?
All our cakes are baked as needed so super fresh for each order, at the end of your event any left over cake can be stored at room temperature for approx 7 days or up to 2 weeks in the fridge. Alternatively it can be cut into portions and frozen for up to 6 months to be enjoyed another day.
