Have an idea that doesn't fit any of the above? That's most of our work. Tell us what you have in mind and we'll go from there.

Beyond The Collection
The occasions above are a starting point, not a menu.

Wedding cakes, birthday cakes, sculpted novelty cakes, hand-painted scenes, replica cakes built from a reference photo. If it's possible in cake form, we'll figure out how. Milestones count too, whether that's a christening or a retirement send-off cake. Bring an inspiration photo, a Pinterest board, or even a napkin sketch and we'll go from there.

If you don't see your occasion, that doesn't mean we don't make it. Most of our custom work doesn't fit a category.

For vegan and gluten-free cakes, we recommend booking a week or more ahead, and more for tiered or highly detailed designs.

Questions
Frequently asked
How far in advance should I order a custom cake?
We recommend booking a week or more ahead. Rush orders with as little as 48 hours' notice may be possible when we have availability. Wedding cakes and multi-tier designs need about 2 weeks. More lead time is better for detailed designs or during our busy seasons.
Do you offer gluten-free cakes?
Yes. We offer gluten-free chocolate and gluten-free vanilla cake bases. If anyone at your celebration has a gluten allergy or sensitivity, let us know when you order and we'll walk you through the options and how we prepare them.
Do you offer vegan cakes?
We do. We offer vegan chocolate, vegan vanilla, and vegan red velvet cake bases, a vegan vanilla buttercream, and vegan vanilla and vegan chocolate fillings, so a fully vegan cake is absolutely possible. Just tell us your needs when you order.
How much does a custom cake cost?
Every cake is made from scratch and designed to order, so pricing depends on the size, number of tiers, flavors, and the complexity of the design. We don't publish set prices. Send us your details through the inquiry form and we'll give you a firm quote for exactly what you have in mind.
Do you deliver?
We deliver across Scottsdale and the surrounding area, including Paradise Valley and the McCormick Ranch, Gainey Ranch and Scottsdale Ranch communities, or you're welcome to pick up. Delivery is priced by drive time: $30 for 0 to 15 minutes, $40 for 16 to 30 minutes, and $50 for 31 to 45 minutes. Anything further we quote individually. Pickup is free.
Can I schedule a tasting?
Tastings are offered for booked weddings. For other custom cakes we work from a flavor list and your inspiration. Happy to talk you through it on the phone.
