FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much will my wedding cake cost?

Every wedding cake is bespoke to you and your day, therefore prices vary depending on a number of factors; number of tiers, icing style, whether you're having fresh or sugar flowers, where your venue is, and so on. Please get in touch to receive an accurate quote.

Will you deliver the cake?

Yes, I always deliver and set up my wedding cakes. The majority of cakes I make require a certain amount of setting up, stacking and decorating at the venue. Please get in touch to find out whether your wedding venue is within my delivery radius.

How many people will my wedding cake serve?

This very much depends on number of tiers, how the cake is cut and what size portions you'd like. As a benchmark a 3-tier (6, 8 & 10 inch) cake serves approx. 120 people.

Can I have a different flavour for each tier?

Yes, of course! This is the beauty of a wedding cake, the bride and groom don't have to argue over one flavour, and can have a selection to suit all guests.

Do you provide the flowers?

If you require sugar flowers, I would usually source these. However, fresh flowers tend to be provided by your florist to be in keeping with the flowers for the rest of the day. Your florist would prepare these and set them aside for me to add to the cake on the day.

Do you provide cake toppers and stands?

I can provide a cake topper at an additional cost, should you wish to have one. Cake stands tend to be provided by your venue or the couple, however I can source this at an additional cost if needed.

A couple of our guests have dietary requirements, can you cater for this?

I can cater for gluten-free and dairy-free, however I do not yet provide vegan bakes. If there are only one or two guests who are gluten-free or dairy-free, I would suggest having some gluten-free cupcakes or a mini cake to compliment your main wedding cake.

Do you offer wedding cake samples?

I offer wedding cake samples in the form of a 12-box of cupcakes (up to 6 flavours of your choice) for £40. This cost gets deducted off your final wedding cake cost should you book with me.

Do you require a deposit?

Once you have decided you'd like to book with me, I require a 50% non-refundable deposit to secure your date.

When will I need to pay for my wedding cake?

Once the 50% deposit has been paid, the remaining balance will need to be paid 4 weeks before your wedding date.
