Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you located?
I am a home based baker located in Rossford serving the Toledo, Ohio area and beyond. I send pickup address at time of order confirmation and delivery is available.
How far in advance should I order?
As soon as you have a party date! I am consistently filling up 2-3 weeks in advance, and some weekends that are popular for weddings book much farther out, so the sooner the better! Sometimes I can squeeze in small cakes or simply frosted cupcakes with less notice. With the start of summer comes graduation celebrations, then wedding season stretches into the fall, then with winter comes holidays...
Can you make gluten free cake?
Yes and NO. Yes I CAN and do offer a gluten free option, but you wont see it on the menu because I do NOT claim to be allergy friendly. I bake everything on the same equipment so there is always a small chance of cross contamination.
Can you make this design without fondant?
Probably not… but let me explain. If you scroll through my photos, you will see the majority of my cakes are covered with fondant, but ALL of my cakes are buttercream cakes. When you cut into your cake you will find two to three layers of buttercream in between four layers of cake. Then your cake will be covered in a layer of buttercream before I apply a very thin layer of fondant, usually about ¼ inch thin. It blends right into the buttercream! I bake from scratch using the best ingredients available, which makes for a fresh, moist cake. I would never top my prized product with something that would make it taste bad. In fact, it seals in the freshness.
Do you do other desserts?
We only customize cake and cupcakes. We can also do some very simple cookie designs in fondant and buttercream but we do not do royal icing cookies. We have added cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, and cake truffles to our menu!
Can I schedule a tasting?
Please see weddings tab for information about purchasing a tasting box. They are offered "to go" only at this time.
