How booking works
-
Tell me about your event
The quote form takes a couple of minutes: the date, the occasion, roughly how many guests, and any photos you love.
-
We design it together
I reply within 1 business day with a few questions and a quote. For a wedding, we can arrange a tasting box of cake flavors and fillings for you to try at home.
-
A deposit holds your date
Your date goes in my calendar once the deposit of 50% is in.
-
Pickup or delivery
I prefer pickup, by appointment in Sugar Land. Delivery in Sugar Land, Missouri City and Sienna is for a fee and on a limited schedule, and I set the cake up at your venue.
Starting prices
Every cake is quoted on its size and design. Starting prices include your choice of flavor and filling, a smooth buttercream or fondant finish and simple decoration. Fresh flowers, sugar work and delivery are quoted separately.
The cakes are made with real butter, cage-free eggs, real vanilla and fresh fruit, and never with preservatives or a box mix, or anything from a wholesaler.
