Designed around your day, not a catalogue
There is no set menu of wedding cake designs here. We start from your colours, your flowers and the room the cake will stand in, then build a design that belongs at your reception. Some couples come with a full Pinterest board; others come with a single ribbon swatch. Both work.
Most of our wedding cakes are two to four tiers, finished in either smooth buttercream or fondant depending on the look and the venue. Sugar flowers are made by hand, petal by petal, the burgundy roses cascading down the cake at the top of this page took a full day on their own.
Practical things worth knowing
Sizing your cake
Wedding cakes are priced and sized by serving, not by tier count. A four-tier cake for 120 guests and a three-tier for 120 guests cost close to the same, the tiers change the look, not the amount of cake. Use our cake serving guide to work out roughly what you need, or tell us your guest count and let us size it.
A common way to save: a smaller display cake for the cutting photos, plus sheet cake of the same flavour kept in the kitchen for serving. Your guests get the same cake, and you pay for far less decorated surface.
Delivery and set-up
Tiered cakes are always delivered and assembled on site, never handed over in a box. We deliver across Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Brandon, Riverview and the surrounding Tampa Bay area, and we coordinate timing with your venue so the cake is not sitting in the sun for two hours before guests arrive.
Booking and deposits
A 40% deposit reserves your date, and the remaining balance is due one week before the wedding date, so there is nothing to settle on the day itself. We take a limited number of weddings each weekend, so the deposit is what actually holds the date, not the enquiry.
Common questions
How far in advance should we book our wedding cake?
Two to three months is comfortable, and six months is better for peak Saturdays between February and May. We only take a limited number of weddings per weekend so the cake gets proper attention, and popular dates fill first.
Do you offer tastings?
Yes. Once you are seriously considering us, we arrange a tasting box with your shortlisted flavours and fillings so you can try them at home, on your own time. Tastings are credited toward your cake when you book.
Will buttercream survive a Florida wedding?
It depends on the venue. Our buttercream is stable indoors and in shade, but an uncovered outdoor reception in July is genuinely hard on any frosting. For hot outdoor events we recommend fondant over the tiers, or we plan a delivery time close to cutting. We will tell you honestly which is right for your venue. We would rather talk you into fondant than have your cake lean at 4pm.
Do you deliver and set up at the venue?
Always, for tiered cakes. Stacked cakes are assembled on site. They do not travel safely once built. We deliver across Tampa Bay and coordinate arrival time with your planner or venue coordinator.
Can you match a cake from Pinterest?
We can usually work from an inspiration photo, and we will be straight with you about anything that will not translate. Some viral cakes are styled props, not real cakes. Send the picture with your quote request and we will tell you exactly what is achievable.
What about a groom’s cake or dessert table?
Both are popular. Groom’s cakes are often our sculpted work: a team logo, a hobby, a car. We also do cupcake towers and dessert tables to extend servings without a bigger cake.
