HOW MUCH DO YOUR CAKES COST? WILL I NEED TO SELL MY FIRST BORN?
Not necessary! Our basic-design sheet cakes and round cakes generally start around $25 and go up depending on serving size. Our custom made cakes are priced individually based on the number of people you are serving and the intensity of the design. We advise you to come in for a custom quote and encourage bringing pictures or drawings with you. Our wedding cake prices start at $5.50 per serving and again go up in price depending on your choice of design and flavors. Our specialty tiered cakes start at 6.50 per person.
WHAT TYPES OF ICINGS DO YOU OFFER?
Our Homemade American butter crème is the BEST ICING IN THE WORLD!!!
Smoothed to look like fondant, creamy, light, and just the right amount of sweetness. We offer both vanilla and chocolate butter crème. Once you try it, you'll never want a cake from anyone else.
WARNING: Our customers have been known to become addicted to our amazing butter crème. Side effects include constant cravings and hallucinations of dancing cupcakes. Should you experience these symptoms, take one cupcake with a glass of milk and do not operate any heavy machinery.
HOW DO I STORE MY CAKE BEFORE AND AFTER CUTTING?
Unless you are not going to eat the cake for an extended period time, there is no need to refrigerate your cake. After you pick up your cake, let it sit out at room temperature until it's time to cut and serve. If there is any left after serving, which there seldom is, wrap the rest with saran wrap or put the pieces into an airtight container. In the unlikely circumstance that no one has devoured it within a day, then you can refrigerate or freeze the rest.
