2. How much are your cakes and cupcakes?
Cakes are priced per serving and vary by complexity and design. Our pricing begins at $2 per serving but intricate details, shaping, carving and handmade sugar flowers can significantly increase the cost.
I am happy to work within your event budget and encourage you to contact me for an appointment so that we can discuss your cake order in person. I feel meeting with someone face-to-face and getting to know your ideas is the best way to plan a spectacular cake.
Cupcakes are priced by size and by amount of decoration. I offer two sizes of cupcakes. The mini cupcakes are 2.5 bite sized cupcakes that start at $1.00 each depending on complexity of decoration.The classic cupcakes are standard sized cupcake and start at $1.50 each and also vary by complexity of decoration.

5. How should I care for my cake ?
Most cakes are either too large or too fragile to place in a normal cake box. I will do my very best to box your cake when you come for pick up. It is a good idea to have a flat and open surface in your vehicle away from any loose objects to avoid accidents.

I allow the use of my wonderful stands to make your cupcakes and cake stand out at your event. If you would like to use one of these stands, please let me know as soon as possible, as I only have a limited amount of stands.
I require a check hold that is returned to you as soon as the stand is returned in the same condition it was delivered within one week of your event. You are responsible for returning the stand(s) to me within one week of your event date in the same condition it was delivered to avoid additional fees.
