FAQ
Good questions
How far ahead should I order?
For birthdays and celebrations, at least 2 weeks, or 3–4 weeks for detailed designs. Big tiered cakes and busy weekends book out sooner, so ask early. Need something sooner? Ask anyway, or try a Quick Pick.
How much does a custom cake cost?
Custom cakes start from $140 for a 6" cake that feeds 12–14, and bento cakes from $45. The final price depends on size, design and extras. Every price is on the prices page.
See all pricesDo you deliver? Where, and how much?
Yes, across Townsville from $20. Magnetic Island, Ayr, Charters Towers and Ingham are quoted. Tiered cakes are delivered and set up by me.
Delivery areas and feesHow do I keep my cake safe in Townsville heat?
Keep it in air-con, carry it flat on the car floor with the air-con on, and never leave it in a parked car. Every cake comes with a care card.
Cake care tipsCan you make a cake without gluten, egg or nuts?
I can make some cakes without certain ingredients, but my kitchen handles wheat, milk, egg, soy, nuts and sesame, so traces are possible. Please tell me about every allergy when you enquire. Full allergen information is available on request.
