Custom Designed Cake Info

Custom Designed Cake Time Frame

You will definitely need to order early as this process does take a little longer than ordering a pre designed cake. As a guide, some custom orders can require 3-4 weeks notice to allow time for consultation, research, design and quoting. We find it best to book in as soon as you know you would like a Burnt Butter cake!

Custom Design Cake Application & Availability

We are currently taking on a limited amount of in house designed custom cakes. To assist us manage this process we would love you to apply (via the link below) to utilise this service. Please be sure to read through our Custom Designed Cakes info before applying.

When custom designing cakes we only design cakes within our kitchen’s current skill ability and design style. Should your request not fit into these parameters we will politely decline your request. (Many thanks in advance for your understanding.)

Please note we don’t copy other cake designers designs but we can use them as inspiration if they are inline with our style.

Custom Design Cake Pricing

Starting prices can be found by scrolling down to the bottom of this page, remembering these are starting prices and final prices will be impacted by your chosen design, level of design difficulty and design discussion time.

Custom design fees usually start around $30 (in addition to your cake price) but can vary depending on the amount of research or conversations required. We will invoice the initial non refundable design fee prior to our appointment. Should a subsequent design fee be required this will be built into your cake quote.

Custom Design Cake Appointments

Please note a custom cake appointment either in person or over the phone is required for this service once your request has been accepted. Please be sure to call ahead to arrange a time to ensure we are available to assist you. Appointments are held within our shop or over the phone and are usually conducted early in the week. (Away from bustling opening times & weekends!)
