Do you offer 'dummy cakes' and is this a cheaper option for a wedding?
We do offer dummy display cakes for sale at a small reduction in price compared to that of the actual cake. A large portion of the cost of the cake
is in the time and skill involved with decorating; therefore, it does not matter whether styrofoam or actual cake is being decorated. In addition, if
you are also purchasing sheet cakes to serve your guests, it will most likely cost you more than if you just ordered a wedding cake.

Why are custom cakes more expensive than those sold at grocery or other chain stores?
Unlike chain stores that mass produce a small variety of standard design cakes, custom cakes are designed, baked, and decorated specifically
for each client. These works of art take many hours to complete and for complex designs, days are needed. Cakes seen on television actually
take days to weeks to prepare, not the 30-60 min of edited program actually shown.
