1)

What are your prices?

Prices start from $310 for a 2-tier cake, $610 for a 3-tier cake and $970 for a 4-tier cake. The final price will depend on the tiers' sizes, whether or not you wish for the fondant to be coloured, and the level of complexity in making the decorations. Any number of tiers can be replaced by styrofoam dummies at a lower price. Feel free to drop us a line and we'll be happy to give you a quotation.

3) How big is each slice of cake?
One slice measures 2x1x4 inches, a tasting portion that is used widely as an industry standard. If you wish for the slices to be larger or smaller, do let us know and we'll be glad to recalculate the yield and price for you.
   
4) How soon must I place my order?
At least two months before your event please. This will give us enough time to design and produce a truly personalized cake for you. It will also allow time, if need be, to mail-order special decorative cutters and tools to achieve your dream cake.
   
5) How do I pay?
A 50% deposit is required to secure an order. The remainder is payable by cash on delivery.
   
6) Do you do only fondant-covered wedding cakes?
Yes. Fondant, a type of sugarpaste that can be rolled and stretched to cover different shapes and heights of cakes, offers a gorgeously smooth and stable base on which to add decorations. Fondant has long suffered a bad rep for tasting like a cross between mouldy cardboard and your grandma's talcum powder. But the Swiss-made fondant we use is delicious - think the white filling in Oreo cookies.
   
7) Won't fondant make the cake too sweet?
It will to some, not to others. If you find it too sweet, just peel it off and banish it to the far end of your plate, then enjoy the insides.
   
8) Are fondant cakes suited for outdoor events?
No, unless you want to demonstrate to your guests the annihilistic powers of Singapore's climate on confectionery. Air-conditioning is a must for fondant cakes to look their best.
   
9) Can the cake be refrigerated?
Fondant will become rock-hard after chilling in the fridge. Once left to stand at room temperature, condensation forms and it will become sticky. The decorations may even wilt. Therefore, chill your leftover cake only after the party's over when you no longer need it to look fab.
   
10) Do you make cupcakes and 3-D novelty cakes?
Our specialty is tiered cakes only.
   
11) Can we meet for a no-obligations consultation?
Yes, absolutely! Just drop us a line and we'll fix a date to chat about cake.
