Shopping Tips

                                                        

  ASK A LOT OF QUESTIONS???

     What is the diameter of each tier?

      What is the cost of each serving?

      What does delivery charge include?

      How big is a serving?

                    What is fondant?

                        Can I get a sample to taste?

      Will my cake be picture ready with flowers arranged on the cake top, sides and around the base?  

Who provides the fresh flowers?  The bride or the bakery?

______________________________________________________________

          First and foremost, appearance should not exceed taste.     An elegant cake will stand straight and never be overly decorated.  Floral arrangements on and between the tiers will give an overall polished look.

            If you plan to do price comparisons with local bakeries, you must have the size (diameter) of each tier to get a true picture of how much cake you are really getting.  Some smaller wedding cakes can serve a large crowd only because the servings are "taste" size, or approximately bite sized.  A generous serving should be the size of a deck of cards.

           When ordering take your time. This is a large expense in your wedding budget and should be exactly what you want. It is wise to reserve your party date early.  Six months to a year advance reservation is perfect.  August, September and October are busy wedding months and definately require advance date reservation.

           CALL YOUR BAKER one week before the party to reconfirm the order and delivery time.

Cake Flavors & Fillings

 

   

  For an elegant dinner party, a special desert is a must.    Since cake is a traditional wedding desert, it is nice to dress it up with tasty fillings.  Three simple cake flavors are the foundation for pleasing a crowd.  Now mix and match from our filling choices and you will be sure to have a variety for everyone to choose from.  All our cakes are iced in Old Fashioned Butter Cream for easy cutting.
