Some of our products are very custom in nature and require a combination of sketches, diagrams, accompanying photos (either digital or printed), schematics, and/or color swatches with a detailed order form.

You or a representative sent on your behalf to pick up an ordered item will be shown the completed item prior to leaving the bakery. At this point of reveal you have the opportunity to assess the condition of your products in comparison to your order form at that time and may choose to address any issues at that time. Upon signing the order form release section, you or your representative releases the bakery from any issues related to design or damage once the cake has left the counter. If you or your representative does not sign the release on the order, your cake will not be released to you or your representative.

Most of our custom products are held under refrigeration for transportation purposes. Our cakes are best enjoyed at room temperature for the optimal flavor experience; we suggest setting them up in the final display location two hours before serving them. If you move one of our custom cakes after it has returned to room temperature you may distort or crack the icing and decorations; it is best to set it up where it will be displayed and let it come to room temperature gradually. We strongly recommend an air-conditioned, 70 degree room for displaying our cakes. Hot and humid weather will cause our cakes to condense moisture on its surface; colors may run and components may melt which will ruin the aesthetics of your purchase.
