Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How far in advance should we book? 
    As soon as you have your event date set! We recommend inquiring 6–9 months in advance to ensure availability for weddings. Milestone celebrations are best booked 4-6 weeks ahead.

  5. Will my cake look exactly like my inspiration photo or sketch? 
    Your inspiration photos and sketches serve as a guide for the overall look and feel of your cake. Each design is custom and created by hand, so while the final result will closely reflect your vision, it will not be an exact replica. These subtle variations are what make your cake truly one of a kind.
