Tiered Cakes

​

 

Our tiered cakes require extra time to create and extra love to transport. Any tiered cake that is three tiers or more REQUIRES delivery. We will NOT allow pick up of these cakes.  

​

Our two tier cakes may be picked up, however we have strict requirements. If you are unable to meet these requirements, delivery will be required. There are NO exceptions.

​

     - An SUV or large truck is required. Our tiered cakes will not fit in a standard sedan.

     - The vehicle MUST have working air conditioning.

     - The cake MUST be stored on the floor board flat and cannot sit on a seat or in someones lap.

​

We do require a pick-up waiver be signed as well. We are not responsible for any damage incurred to the cake in anyway. We provide clear transportation, handling and storage instructions. If you choose to pick up your cake, you release ALL liability once the cake is in your vehicle.
