4 to 6 Months
CAKE TASTINGS
Choosing the cake flavors is just as important as choosing the design! Once you have finalized your wedding date and reception site and are ready to talk cake details, give us a call! Tastings are available by appointment only on Sunday afternoons from 2 pm to 5 pm.
BOOK YOUR ORDER
The booking process includes signing a contract that outlines our policies, what each party is responsible for, and payment terms. Once the cake tasting is complete, you will receive a completed order detailing all your choices and the booking fee amount. You then have one week to review it, make sure you're happy, ask for any changes, sign it and return it. The deposit is due at the time of the booking. Your order is not considered booked until the deposit is received.

CONFIRM DELIVERY DETAILS
