FAQs

HOW DO I STORE MY CAKE?
 
In order to keep your cake in a perfect condition it must be stored, boxed, in the fridge or somewhere cool & dark on a sturdy supportive surface and kept out of reach of children and pets. I advise bringing it up to room temperature an hour or so before cutting and serving.
Some elements of your cake (charms, toppers, floristry tape, florals etc) will need to be removed before serving.
Tiered cakes will be supported with dowels, make sure to remove these before serving.
Once cut, store in an airtight container at room temperature or wrap it in cling film. 
​
HOW DO I TRANSPORT MY CAKE?
 
Cakes are very fragile and need to be transported with care. Cakes must be kept on a flat surface, either in your passenger footwell or the boot. I do not recommend holding the cake or placing it on a seat. Please ensure the heating in the car is off and if it is a warm day, make sure the air conditioning has been running for some time before the cake goes in the car.
Make sure to pick the cake up from the bottom of the box, not the sides, and do not tilt the cake. 

HOW LONG WILL MY CAKE STAY FRESH?
 
My cakes contain no added preservatives, therefore it is recommended that you consume them within 3 days.

DO YOU USE FONDANT?
 
I do not cover any of my cakes in fondant, all cakes are iced with buttercream. On the odd occasion I can make fondant elements or decorations to add to a buttercream cake but these will incur an extra fee for the time it takes to make them. 

DO YOU CATER FOR ALLERGIES/INTOLERANCES?

Gluten Free cakes are available on request, however I do not recommend ordering from us if you or your guests suffer from severe allergies as this is a home kitchen full of a wide range of ingredients including wheat, dairy, and nuts. 

CAN I HAVE MORE THAN ONE FLAVOUR FOR MY CAKE?

For single tier cakes you may only choose one flavour. For tiered cakes you are welcome to choose one flavour per tier, for example a three tiered cake can be three different flavours. 

CAN I RESERVE A DATE FOR MY CAKE?
 

For wedding cakes there is a non refundable deposit of £100 to secure your date. The remainder of the balance is required to be paid 4 weeks before the day.
For celebration cakes there is a £20 non refundable deposit to secure your date, the final balance being due 2 weeks before the day.
