Most bakeries will charge you by the slice. If you need 100 slices, you will pay 100 times the price per slice. Our starting price is $2.00 per slice . Therefore, a cake with 100 slices would be 100 x $2.00= $200. Remember, this amount could vary some due to the size of cake you need. In order for the cake to be proportioned correctly, you may need to increase or decrease the number by a few servings. The number of servings including the top tier is used to determine the price. There is an additional charge for fondant icing, fruit, ribbons, string beads, etc.
Yes, each tier can be a different flavor. However, we would recommend using no more than two flavors. If you have too many choices, your guests may decide to sample more flavors leaving you with not enough cake. If you would like to have more than 2 flavors, we would suggest increasing the number of servings to allow for this.Frequently Asked Questions
