“Simple and Classic” cakes would all be included in our base pricing.
“More Detailed” cakes would involved an additional charge beyond the base pricing. The amount of the additional charge will vary with each design.
“Unique Personalized” cakes are unique designs that we’ve created from invitations, gowns or other inspiration.
Hopefully, the titles of the other galleries are self-explanatory.
All cakes made from scratch without any artificial ingredients or preservatives.
We also pride ourselves on offering cakes that are only slightly sweet, not cloyingly sweet.
