Can I buy a signature cake or individual pastries at your shop?

Yes you can, you will just need to email us ahead to place the order and set a day and time for pick up. Please note that not all the signature cakes are available at all times, so there is no guarantee to make you the one that you are interested on buying.

Can I find your signature cakes in another location?

fondant cakes
The cakes that you show in your website are the only choices I have?

No, that is our portfolio showing cakes that we have created for previous clients, every cake is customize for each person to what they want for Dream Cake. Either we will design the cake or clients will provide us with a picture of what they want to have.

Can you create a replica of a cake that I saw in another website or magazine?

Yes, we can.

How far in advance should I order?

All our cakes are custom made so we strongly suggest at least 2 to 3 weeks in advance to place orders.

How far in advance should I schedule and appointment or tasting?

We ask for a minimum of 2 to 3 weeks notice.

Yes we can definitely make the whole process through email or phone, no need to come in.

Can you ship my cake?

No, we currently do not ship any of our cakes.

How much my cake will cost?

Our cakes start at $7 per person, but each design will vary depending on how intricate the design is and how many hours will be needed to be accomplished.

Why are your cakes more expensive than other local bakeries?

We do everything by hand, so the labor on our cakes is much higher than the average bakery. We don't use any plastic figures or decorations; they are molded and painted by hand. Everything needs to be done way in advance for decorations to be properly dried, painted and placed on cake.

PAYMENTS
What are your payment options?

We accept cash, personal/business checks. Paying by credit card will be through Paypal.

Do I have to have an account at Paypal to pay you?

No, we will send you an electronic invoice, it will have a link for you to add your credit card information.

Do I have to give you a deposit?

Yes, this will be to secure your order. This payment is non-refundable.

When is my full balance due?

It will be due 2 weeks before the date of your event in some cases, and in others it can be due the day that you will pick up the cake.

How will be my payment if my order is less than the 3 weeks you ask in advance?

Your payment will have to be made in full when placing the order and will also be Non-refundable.

Nice Notes

Veronica- Just a quick note to tell you how great the cake was. My daughter absolutely LOVED it, as did all our guests. They couldn't stop talking about it. Emily loved the book... It was perfect. And the cake was so delicious! The buttercream was the best I've had. Thanks so much for helping to make Emily's 16th birthday so special.
