Custom cakes

A cake made for the day.

We now take orders for cakes made to your own brief: weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, the days a family keeps. Tell us what the day is and what you would like, and one of us will come back to you within 24 hours with what the kitchen can do and what it costs. Custom cakes need at least a week's notice.

What we make.If the day matters, the cake can be made for it.

Weddings

Tiered, plain or dressed, with a tasting beforehand if you would like one.

Birthdays

From a single round for the table to a cake that feeds the whole room.

Anniversaries

The cake from the first day, made again, or something quieter.

Baby showers and graduations

Colours, a name, a date, and nothing louder than you want.

Religious and cultural days

Norooz, Eid, christenings, Persian and Italian traditions we bake all year.

Offices and openings

A logo in chocolate, a number, a sheet cake cut for fifty.

How it works.Three steps, and a week in between.

1 · Tell us

Fill the form below with the date, how many people it should feed and what you have in mind. Pictures help more than words.

2 · We answer within 24 hours

One of us writes back with what the kitchen can do, a sketch or a photograph of something similar, and a price.

3 · A deposit books the date

Once the design is settled we send a deposit link. The balance is paid when you collect the cake on Clyde Avenue.

Before you ask.Facts, not adjectives.

A week's notice, at least. Custom cakes are made to order around the daily bake. Tiered and modelled cakes are better with two or three weeks.

Made here. The sponge, the cream and the decoration are all made in our kitchen on Clyde Avenue, the same as everything in the case.

Say what you cannot eat. We work without nuts, without gluten or without eggs when asked. Tell us early: it changes the recipe, not the price.

Pickup at the counter. Cakes are collected at 14-1400 Clyde Avenue, in a box made for them. We do not deliver cakes ourselves.

Tell us about the cake.The more you put here, the closer the first answer will be. We reply within 24 hours.

Dietary needs optional
