Frequently Asked Questions

Hours of operation (are you open on weekends?)

We are open from 9:00am to 4:00pm Monday through Thursday and 9:00am -5:00pm Friday. We are closed for the weekend and for all major holidays.

Are we open to the public?

Yes, and we would love to see you! We accept walk-ins as long as you're ok with anything we have currently in stock:) To guarantee your order we recommend placing it in advance. Also, we are not a typical retail bakery so you can't view our beautiful creations in a bakery case nor can you order a single slice of cake, but we'll be happy to please you with a delicious whole cake of your choosing.

How far in advance do I need to place an order?

We require a 2 day notice. But if you would like to guarantee your selection, we do sell out of popular items occasionally, please place your order 1-2 weeks in advance.

How do I place an order?

There is multiple ways including our website, email, and the retail phone line. If we do not answer, leave a message or email and we will do our best to touch base by end of day.

What type of payment do you accept?

Do you accept custom orders?
