FAQ

Everything people usually ask

If your question is not here, message us on WhatsApp and we will answer it properly.

How far in advance should I order a cake?

Two to four weeks is ideal for a celebration cake and three to six months for a wedding, especially over summer and in December. If your date is sooner than that, message us anyway and we will tell you honestly whether we can fit it in.

How do I secure my date?

Pay the required deposit to secure your date. Your booking is confirmed once the required deposit has been received. Full payment is due before collection or delivery.

Do you make bespoke cakes in Cardiff?

Yes. We are based in Cardiff and bespoke cakes are designed around your occasion, your preferred style, your chosen flavour and any requirements you have. Send us photos, colours or a rough idea and we will turn it into a design.

Can I choose my cake flavour and filling?

Yes. Flavour and filling combinations are discussed with you when you order a bespoke cake. Our confirmed flavour, filling and frosting lists are published on the Cakes page, and we will talk you through what works well together.

Do you offer Ready-to-Order cakes?

Yes. Our Ready-to-Order cakes are set flavours in 6, 7 and 9 inch at fixed published prices, from £67.99. You choose the size, the filling or frosting offered on that cake, a message and a date, and the price you see is the price you pay. They are all on the Shop & Order page. Cupcakes, brownies and the tasting boxes are fixed-price too.

Do Ready-to-Order cakes require full payment?

Yes. Ready-to-Order products require full payment to confirm your order. Choosing a product and a date does not reserve or hold it, and your order is not confirmed until full payment has been received. Once payment has been made, Ready-to-Order orders cannot be cancelled, subject to your applicable UK consumer rights. Bespoke cakes work differently: those are quoted first, and then a deposit secures your date.

What sizes of cake do you offer?

Round celebration cakes come in 6, 7 and 9 inch, and heart cakes start at 6 inch. The one 5 inch cake we make is the Bento Cake, which comes as a set with five cupcakes. Tiered and wedding cakes are built to your guest numbers and quoted individually.

How many people does each cake size serve?

As a guide, a 6 inch serves approximately 8 people, a 7 inch approximately 14, and a 9 inch approximately 24. The 5 inch Bento Cake serves approximately 2 to 4. The serving figure is shown next to each size when you order, and Serving numbers are estimates and may vary depending on how the cake is cut and portion size.

Do you make cupcakes for events?

Yes. Cupcakes come in boxes of 6 at £21, 12 at £40 and 24 at £72. A box of 6 is one flavour, a box of 12 can have up to two flavours with six of each, and a box of 24 up to three with eight of each. For a larger quantity or a themed design, send us an enquiry and we will quote it.

Do you provide desserts for events?

Yes. Brownies, cheesecakes, tiramisu cups, chocolate mousse and seasonal dessert cups are all available for celebrations, weddings and corporate events. Quantities, combinations and packaging are built around your event, so those are quoted rather than fixed-price: see Desserts for Events.

Do you offer delivery?

Collection and delivery options are available depending on your order and location. Details and applicable charges will be confirmed during the booking process.

Do you cater for events?

Yes. We provide cakes, desserts and selected Nigerian-inspired treats for birthdays, weddings, baby showers, engagements, graduations, corporate events and other private celebrations. We are not a full-service catering company, so the wider menu stays with you or your caterer. See the Event Catering page for details.

Do you accommodate dietary requirements?

We are happy to discuss dietary requirements where possible. However, our products are prepared in an environment where allergens including eggs, milk, gluten, nuts and other allergens may be present. We cannot guarantee that any product is completely free from allergens or suitable for customers with severe allergies.

Please contact us before ordering to discuss any dietary requirements or allergies.

How do I enquire about a wedding cake?

Use the Start Your Order form or message us on WhatsApp with your wedding date, venue, guest numbers and any inspiration you have saved. We will come back with design suggestions and a quotation.

Can I make changes after booking?

Get in touch as early as you can and we will tell you what is still possible for your date. Please refer to our full booking terms for information about cancellations, amendments, rescheduling and refunds.

What is the quickest way to reach you?

WhatsApp is usually fastest, and it is the easiest way to send us photos and inspiration. Email and Instagram work just as well if you prefer, and we answer every message.
