How much notice do you need for a custom cake?

Typical lead time

Most custom cakes need just 2–3 days so our decorators can sketch, bake, and finish every detail to your specs without rushing the magic.

Last-minute magic

Need cake today? Most designs are ready the same day, and many can be finished in 2–3 hours—sometimes even while you wait. Order on our website, give us a quick call, or pop into either store and we’ll start whisking right away.

Complex designs & peak seasons

Hand-sculpted toppers, tall tiers, or busy weekends may require 2–3 days—and 5–7 days for really complex cakes. Ordering early is always the best way to secure your preferred date.

Need it sooner?

Give us a call or submit the Custom Cake Quote Form with “RUSH” in the notes. If our schedule allows, we’ll squeeze you in; if not, we’ll suggest the closest alternative.

Ready-to-go backup

Our display case is stocked daily with celebration cakes and cupcakes that can be inscribed while you wait—perfect for true last-minute surprises.

How to secure your slot

Order online, by phone, or in person and pay in full. Your confirmation locks the date, and our decorators get to work right away. Questions? We’re only a chat, email, or WhatsApp away.
