No – once you place your order please select “Pickup” at the checkout if you prefer to collect your treats. Dates and time slots for collection can then be selected.

We will be surprised if you have anything left after your special occasion! In case of extras, store your treats in a fridge for up to 3 days. To maintain freshness, transfer your cakes or cupcakes to an airtight container, or cover any exposed sponge with plastic wrap.

  • DO YOU MAKE VEGAN, GLUTEN, NUT, OR EGG FREE CAKES?

We create our treats in a kitchen that uses many of these ingredients and therefore cannot guarantee that there will be no traces of gluten, nuts or eggs. Please see our Flavours page for the best information on what is included in our cakes and cupcakes.
