The planning process

01. The Inquiry
To start, fill out the inquiry form (you can find that here) and tell me all about the details of your wedding, the logistics of the day, and your vision for your desserts. While it's a little lengthy, this info helps me get to know you a little more, gives me an idea of what you're looking for, and if I have the availability for the scope of your desserts for your date.
02.Tasting
The tasting is often helpful to do prior to your consultation, so you have a chance to get a bit more familiar with my cakes, flavors, and the sizing of the mini desserts. I offer tastings, for cake only at this time, as a to-go box that you can pick up and then enjoy in the comfort of your own home. Tastings are $20/box. For the tasting itself, you'll be able to choose up to four flavors of cake and four flavors of frostings (can be used as fillings or outer frostings) to try. You'll get a total of a dozen mini cupcakes, unfrosted, with the frostings separate so you can mix and match flavors to see what combinations you like best. Feel free to book more than one box if you have more flavors you'd like to try!
03. Consultation
From there, we can either email about the details, or we can set up a consultation via video call (via Google Meet). The consultation gives us a chance to go over the timing of your day, your design ideas for your cake, flavors/types of desserts, set up, and address any questions you might have.
04. Proposal & Booking
Once we have a good idea of what you'd like to do for your desserts, I'll send you a proposal that breaks down all the details and pricing. If you feel like the numbers are aligned with your budget and that we're a good fit to work together, we move on to the contract and invoice. A 30% initial payment and signed contract officially books and secures your date (the balance and any final decisions that need to be made are due two weeks before your wedding).
05. Sit back & relax
Once that contract is signed and your payment is made, you can cross one more thing off your to-do list. I've got your desserts covered! From here, I'll check in periodically to make sure you're set and when we get closer to your day, I'll reach out to confirm your numbers and any details we haven't nailed down yet.
06. Eat Cake!
Not much more to say for this one! When your big day comes, rest assured that you'll be able to enjoy some tasty desserts, and not worry about anything else!
There's so many options for your desserts, so if you're feeling a little overwhelmed, you're not alone! Here's a few things to consider about your day, that can be helpful in nailing down what might be the best fit when it comes to choosing your wedding desserts.
Tips for Choosing your Desserts
If that's not something you care for, and you aren't big into cake, you can ditch a cutting cake completely and focus on other desserts you'd rather be eating. But, if this is something important for you, you may want to focus more on the look of the cake for those photos after the fact!
Do you want the traditional cake cutting moment?
What kind of desserts do you actually enjoy?
If you're not big cake people, don't feel like you HAVE to have cake. There's lots of other pastry options you might enjoy more! On the other hand, if you LOVE cake, maybe you'll want to consider a tiered cake or a cupcake display.
For some, the dessert is just as much part of the decor as everything else, so you may want more of a "statement piece" like a big tiered cake. If that doesn't matter to you, just focus on choosing some tasty treats!
What kind of experience do you want for your guests?
Maybe you're really big into the dancing and want your guests to really enjoy that. Mini desserts are a great "grazing" option, as they're easy to grab and eat quickly so your guests can get back to dancing! Or, if you want a more formal experience, maybe slices of cake are the way to go!
What kind of display do you want?
What's really important is that you choose something that makes you happy, that you enjoy eating, and that you feel reflects the two of you!
-A big tiered cake for all guests
-A smaller tiered cake with kitchen cakes for additional servings.
(Kitchen cakes are just a round cake without decor, that's kept back in the kitchen and then cut and served with your display cake.)
-A smaller tiered cake with mini dessert display
-A single tier cutting cake with mini dessert display
-Mini dessert display only
Here's some common combinations:

Your desserts are just as much (if not more) about how they taste than they look. So let's make sure my desserts match your taste preferences! Get a chance to try some cake and buttercream flavors, before committing to booking with me for your wedding.
Tastings are offered as a To-Go Box you can pick up and try in the comfort of your own home (or a favorite date destination!). You'll be able to choose up to four flavors of cake and four flavors of frostings. You'll get a total of a dozen mini cupcakes, unfrosted, with the frostings separate so you can mix and match to see what combinations you like best! Then we can go from there!
