Most frequent questions and answers about cake
We price cakes based on a number of different factors. Every six months, we perform a competitive market analysis of bakeries that sell cakes and pastries most comparable to our products. The technical complexity of the design, the amount of servings and the time required to produce the final cake are all factors of the overall price. Then the time & cost for creation sugar flowers (sometimes 8+ hours/flower) and any additional features is calculated and added.
We believe in quality products at an affordable price for our clients. Many comparable wedding cakes start at $800 and can be well over $3000
During COVID, the minimum order is a dozen (12) cupcakes
