We ask for at least two week’s notice for custom orders. For large events like weddings, much more notice is appreciated. For quicker turnaround, please check out the Shop Online section of our site. Most items in the Shop Online section have at least a 3-10 day lead time, but you can always order further in advance. If you need something with a shorter turnaround, please call 215-598-5449 and we will do our best to help you out, but it’s not always possible.
The best way to start an order is to fill out our Contact Form. Once we receive your submission, we’ll reach out to you with next steps to help you design and order your cake. It’s a fun process and we’re excited to work with you. Please note that submitting the contact form does not constitute an order. Orders are finalized once payment is received.
Cake pricing varies depending on the design complexity and the number of servings. For accurate pricing, we recommend filling out our contact form so we can discuss the options with you. In general, you can expect to invest $9-$15 per serving for an incredible cake.
We are not an allergen-free bakeshop and do not recommend consumption of our products for people who are allergic or intolerant to wheat, gluten, nuts, soy, dairy or eggs. Everything we create contains butter and eggs. Nuts are used in our kitchen and cross-contact is possible. If you have a severe food allergy, we do not recommend consuming our products.
We strongly recommend placing your cake on a flat space in your vehicle, such as the trunk or on the floor behind a seat. If you absolutely must have someone hold the cake (not recommended), be careful not to squeeze the sides of the box. Drive carefully, avoiding big bumps, fast turns and slamming your brakes. It helps to allow extra following distance.
Please place both hands underneath the cake when carrying.
Because our cakes are made with real butter, they’re best served at room temperature. If you will serve your cake the same day you receive it from us, please do not chill it. Keep it in a safe location, out of direct sunlight. A cool room is perfect!
If you’re serving your cake the next day or later, please refrigerate your cake overnight, and then pull it out 4-5 hours before serving or when you wake up. If your cake is tiered, let it sit out in a cool, protected area for at least 6 hours before serving.
Use a long, sharp knife to cut slices, cleaning the blade with a damp paper towel between cuts if possible. Look for and remove all dowels, wires and support material before serving. It is not recommended to eat fondant models and sculptures, sugar flowers, and other three-dimensional cake decor. Please see our cake cutting guide for more information.
