Questions

Frequently asked

Can you make a cake of my kid's favorite character?

Yes. Bring a reference photo or tell us the character, show, or hobby they love and we'll design a cake around it.

How far in advance should I order a kids 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. More lead time is always better for sculpted or highly detailed designs, so reach out as early as you can.

Yes. Every kids cake can be made gluten-free, finished to the same standard as our classic cakes.

Do you offer vegan kids cakes?

Yes. Every kids cake can be made vegan. Let us know when you order and we'll plan around it.

How much does a kids cake cost?

Pricing depends on the size, number of tiers, and complexity of the decoration. We give you a firm quote once we know the details.

Do you deliver kids cakes?

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.
