How much will my cake cost??
How much cake do I need??
The cost of your cake will be determined not only by the size, but also by the flavour you choose, any special dietary requirements, and most notably by the complexity of the design.
And when it comes to portions.... it depends how big you cut the slices! Plus, will everyone at your event want a slice? Will some folk (like me!!) come back for seconds or even thirds! It's an art, not a science, so I'll often give you a couple of options.
My standard custom cakes are round and have THREE layers of sponge inside. That makes them approximately 5.5"/14cm tall.
The smaller of these two numbers assumes a full 'dessert portion', where each slice is the full height of the cake. Expect a very full tummy!
The larger number is a dainty, taster portions (or portions for kids), where you cut each vertical slice into two. This is best when you're eating the cake alongside other desserts or lots of other party food. This is also considered a wedding portion size.
ALLERGENS AND ALLERGIES
I believe that no-one should miss out on cake, so I bake for those with all sorts of special dietary requirements. I do everything in my power to ensure that my cakes are safe for those with allergies and intolerances, but please be aware that I bake and decorate all cakes in the same kitchen and cannot therefore guarantee a fully allergen free environment.
