Ordering
How far in advance should I order?
There is a minimum of 2-3 weeks’ notice on ALL custom buttercream floral cake orders
I recommend ordering your cake as soon as you know the date that you need it as I am limited to the number of orders I can accept on a weekly basis.
**Order is only confirmed after payment is received**
Cake Serving Sizes
So how much cake do I need?
That depends on your event! For a party size cut, the suggested serving size is: 1"W x 2"L x tier height. For a wedding, the suggested serving size is 1"W x 1”L x tier height. Cake size guide offers the larger party size cuts for each of my cakes.
Single tier cakes:
Standing height: approximately 5.5” (four layers of cake with three layers of buttercream)
Tall standing height: approximately 7-8” (this is a double-barreled cake giving you in essence 2 shorter cakes stacked on top of each other with a cardboard cake round in the middle) It is a 2-tier cake with both tiers being the same width.
Cake Size Guide
Below are the servings, dimensions, and recommended cake stand sizes for each cake.
ONE TIER CAKES:
Small Single Tier (14 servings)
- 6" diameter x 4 cake layers; approximately 5.5” high
- Cake board: 10" in diameter
- Recommended cake stand: 10-12" in diameter
Tall Single Tier (28 servings)

- The interior is separated by a cardboard round halfway through, so it is essentially two- 3 layer cakes stacked upon one another.

Large Single Tier (26 servings)

Cake Design
Customizing Your Cake
Before you order, please understand that this is a work of art, and all buttercream flowers are hand-piped and different. If you want a specific color to be matched as close as possible, please SEND a swatch as colors can appear differently from your computer screen to mine.
Flower selection may vary from what is shown making each custom order unique. If a specific main flower in the arrangement is desired, please mention in your inquiry. If unspecified, the flower type in the arrangement will be baker's choice. Common types for main flowers are Roses, Peonies, Hydrangeas complimented with smaller filler flowers.
Please also be aware that I am unable to copy other baker's work or design. Pictures submitted to me would be an "inspiration" to work towards but not an exact duplicate.
NOTES
*I refrain from placing real flowers, fondant, fresh fruit, or piped writing on my cakes. If adequate time permits, I can purchase and add decor elements to your cake. Likewise, you are welcome to order a fully frosted, undecorated cake if you would like to add elements that I do not.
Pickup
Pickup Logistics
Orders are for pickup only from my home in Dublin, CA. An email reminder will be sent to you 1-2 days before the scheduled due date with pickup information.
It is important that adequate space is available in your vehicle to safely transport your cake to your party destination. Please clear a space in advance of order pickup at the footwell or trunk of your car so that the cake box can remain flat. Seats are NOT recommended for transport.
Please adhere to the pickup time agreed upon and text if you will be running late. Orders not picked up will be forfeited.
