Are your items vegetarian?

This isn't an odd question! Most bakeries use sugar that is refined with bone char, which means their products are not truly vegetarian. We use only unrefined cane sugar that is certified vegan. While this costs more, it gives our cakes and cookies a better flavor - and it also means that you can enjoy your cupcake knowing that there are no traces of cow bones in it.

Do you offer vegan/egg-free items?

Yes! Currently, our only vegan flavor is the Thai Hot Chocolate, but we're working on perfecting our vegan frosting. Several cake flavors can be made without eggs, and we can swap out our usual silky Swiss meringue buttercream for an egg-free frosting..

Do you offer gluten-free items?

Yes, all of our cakes can be made gluten-free for an additional charge. However, all items are made in a kitchen that uses wheat flour, so any gluten-free cakes should not be considered completely gluten-free if you have a severe allergy.

Do you make things that aren't cakes or cupcakes?

Yes, but for large events only.

How far in advance should I place my order?

While there's no deadline for placing an order, earlier is always better. In general, we need a minimum of 14 days notice before your event and at least two months for wedding cakes and large orders, although we are often able to accommodate orders with shorter notice.

Orders placed with short notice may incur a rush fee depending on the complexity of the design. We hate turning people away, so don’t wait until the last minute to place an order!

How much do your cakes and cupcakes cost?

Each cake is individually priced based on the flavor, number of servings, and design. See our cakes page for information on base pricing.

Pricing for cupcakes is available here. As with cakes, certain flavors and additional design/colors cost more.

Is there an order minimum?

We have lowered our minimum order pricing for cakes and now offer a small 5” cake. See our cakes page for more information.

Cupcakes have a one dozen minimum per flavor and mini cupcakes have a two dozen minimum per flavor.

Do you make wedding cakes?

Of course! Send us a message so we can get the conversation started.

Do you do wedding tastings?

Because we don't have a storefront, we only offer a customized wedding tasting box, which includes four mini cakes in the flavors of your choice from our menu (custom flavors cannot be accommodated). The cost for this is $100, half of which is applied to wedding cake orders of $500 or more. Tasting boxes must be ordered at least four weeks in advance of the pickup/delivery date.

Do you use fondant on your cakes?

For the most part, no. Our cakes are covered only in Swiss meringue buttercream frosting, but we occasionally add fondant accents (lettering, polka dots, stars, banners, portraits, etc.). We do not make fondant figurines.

Do you deliver?

No. All orders must be picked up from Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn.

How should I store my cake/cupcakes after I receive it?

If you're serving your cake/cupcakes within a few hours of pickup, you can leave it at room temperature. If it will be longer than that, you can refrigerate your cake/cupcakes and then take it out of the fridge 2-3 hours before serving (less time for cupcakes and warmer rooms/climates). Your cake/cupcakes will stay fresh in the fridge for several days if stored properly - which means in an airtight container. If you're going to serve your cake/cupcakes more than 12 hours after receiving it, we recommend wrapping the box in two layers of plastic wrap. And whatever you do, keep your treats out of direct sunlight! Buttercream does fare well under the sun's rays.

Do you have a store?

No. We are a boutique cake studio and only fulfill custom orders. Everything is made to order!

Can you ship your items?

At this time we do not ship cakes and cupcakes.

M&Ms or Reese's Pieces?

Reese's Pieces all the way.
