What we bake

Cakes for every celebration

Dinosaurs and number cakes, painted flowers and gold drips, Lambeth hearts and piped pearls. Whatever the day calls for, our cake artists know how to build it.

Birthday cakes

Dinosaurs, rainbows or a very specific shade of blue? Bring the picture. We'll bring the cake. We make themed cakes for kids' parties, smash cakes for first birthdays, and showstoppers for 30, 50 and 90. Want cookies to match? We'll ice them in the same colours.

Plan a birthday cake

Anniversary cakes

Twenty-five years, fifty years, or the vows all over again. Bring a photo of your wedding cake and we'll design a new one in the same colours, made for the two of you now.

Baby shower and baptism cakes

Soft clouds for a shower, a cut-it-and-see gender reveal, or a simple white cake with piped pearls for a baptism. Tell us the date and the colours, and we'll design a cake that fits the day.

Plan a shower cake

Retirements, graduations, promotions and the odd dog's birthday too. If there's a reason to celebrate, there's a cake for it. Planning a wedding? See wedding cakes

Photos, Pinterest, even AI

Bring your inspiration

The best cakes start with your ideas. Send screenshots, Pinterest boards, a colour swatch or the party invitation, and tell us what you love about each one. We'll take it from there.

AI pictures are welcome too. They're made to look perfect, not to be baked, so floating tiers and paper-thin petals won't stand up in buttercream. That's where our experience comes in. We keep the colours, the mood and the details, and build a real cake with the same wow.

  • A photo of a cake you love
  • Your colours, or the invitation to match
  • Your theme, from a favourite character to a hobby
  • Anything to avoid, including allergies

The proof is in the slice

  • Not a crumb left

    Ordered a two-tier cake for my daughter's tenth birthday. Smooth buttercream, not too sweet, and gone by the end of the party.

  • Better than the picture

    I sent a screenshot and a colour swatch. They told me straight away what would change, and the cake still looked better than the photo.

  • Our wedding colours, 25 years later

    We brought in a photo of our wedding cake for our anniversary. They matched the colours perfectly and the lemon cake was a hit.

Questions

Custom cake questions

Anything else on your mind? Call us at (613) 696-5830, or ask in your request.

How far in advance should I order a custom cake?

At least two weeks. Every custom cake is designed, baked and decorated by hand, and two weeks gives yours our full attention. We don't take same-day orders. If your date is sooner, message us and we'll tell you if we can fit it in. Weekends fill first, so the earlier the better.

How much does a custom cake cost?

Cakes start at $65 for a mini that serves 6 to 8. That includes smooth buttercream with a classic flavour and filling. Premium flavours and fillings start at $5 more, and detail work like figures, flowers and drips is priced once we see your idea.

What size cake do I need?

Go by your guest count. A 6-inch cake serves 8 to 12, an 8-inch serves 15 to 20, and a 10-inch serves 30 to 35. Tell us your numbers and we'll pick a size with a little left over.

Can you make a cake from an AI or Pinterest photo?

Yes. Photos are our favourite starting point. AI pictures often show things buttercream can't hold, like floating tiers, so we keep the colours and the feel and design a real cake around them. You'll know exactly what we're making before you book.

Do you make gluten-free or eggless cakes?

Yes. Gluten-free cakes come in Vanilla, Chocolate, Lemon and Salted Caramel, and our eggless cake is Chocolate. We're 100% peanut-free, but we use tree nuts on site, so we can't guarantee any cake is free of traces.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

Yes. A 50% deposit locks in your date once you approve your design and price. You can cancel, but the deposit isn't refundable.

Do you deliver to Trenton?

Yes. Delivery to Trenton is $20, and anywhere in Belleville is $5. You can also pick up at our shop at 159 Front Street in downtown Belleville.

Can I add cupcakes or cookies?

Yes. Sugar cookies iced in your colours make great favours, and cupcakes stretch a smaller cake further. Add them to your request.

How do I pay?

Cash, credit or e-transfer. Custom orders are invoiced through Square, so you can pay the deposit and balance online.

Share your idea

Let's make it real.

Pick as many as you like.

The occasion, theme, colours, flavour and any allergies. The more you share, the better the design.
