  • Can you match the cake to the colors I am using for my event?
    For color matching, we ask that you provide a swatch of the shade(s) you want to utilize for your desserts/cake. We will do our best to match the color to within 3 shades (darker or lighter) of the provided swatch. With edible products and food grade dyes, exact matches are sometimes difficult to achieve. Please note that dark colors will sometimes have a bitter taste or stain mouth/teeth.

    We provide cake sampler boxes for orders with a minimum amount of $500.00. The boxes contain 4 cake/buttercream flavors of the bakers choice. Cake sampler boxes are $55.00. The fee must be paid in advance of the cake sampler box production. If the fee is not received, the box will not be processed. All of our desserts are custom made, and we do not use frozen samples. The cost of the sampler box covers the time and supplies to make the samples and provides compensation to us if samples are made, and the sampler box is not picked up or the order is canceled. Please keep in mind that cake samples are prepared specifically for your appointment. We ask for the courtesy of 72 hours notice if your consultation needs to be rescheduled.
