I am planning my wedding. How do I start the process to order our wedding cake and how far in advance should I book?
The first step in ordering your wedding cake with us is to order our to-go tasting so that you and your partner can enjoy our cake flavors at your leisure.
We highly recommend starting the process one year in advance. However, 4 to 6 months advance notice is preferred.
Our ordering process is done via email.
What is your cancellation/refund policy?
Cake orders - We require a minimum of one week's cancellation notice for all custom cake orders. You will be issued a store credit to go towards a future order.
Wedding/large cake orders - Your 50% deposit is nonrefundable. If the event is canceled, your 50% deposit may be used as store credit.
What's the best way to transport our cake?
Place your cake on a flat surface such as a trunk or floorboard. Whatever you do, do not set your boxed or unboxed cake in a seat or lap, as it will tilt and become unstable.
How should I store my cake? Does it need to be refrigerated?
Our cakes are chilled upon pick-up. However, if you plan on serving your cake the next day, refrigeration is recommended. Take out 1-2 hours before serving, to enjoy at room temperature.
How do I know how big of a cake I need?
Servings are based on party-size 1½" x 2" slices, with four layers of cake, and three layers of filling. We recommend the following sizes/servings:
4" serves 1-4
6" serves 10-12
8" serves 12-20
10" serves up to 28
12" serves up to 40
Our cakes are best served at room temperature!
Do you use separate equipment for products with possible allergens?
Although we take strict precautions, we are not a nut-free kitchen, and use shared equipment.
Do you make gluten-free and vegan baked goods?
At this time we offer either gluten-free or Vegan baked goods, but not combined.
How fresh are your baked goods?
Our cakes are made with natural ingredients and are baked fresh every day. Each cake is our unique creation and outrageously delicious.

Our address is 204 Avenida Del Mar Suite F, San Clemente, CA 92672. However, our bakery's storefront is not "on" Avenida Del Mar, but on Ola Vista. We are behind Avila's El Ranchito & BeachFire, where outdoor patio seating is located.
