Q:  How many tiers will I need for my wedding cake?
A:  The number of tiers you will need is determined by the number of guests you plan on
serving.  A tier consists of two layers of cake, each layer approximately 2" in height.  The
following chart shows how many servings each round tier will serve.  Keep in mind that
wedding cake servings are smaller than what would be served for a typical party cake.  This
guide is based on a piece of cake that is about 2" x 1" and 5" high (iced with frosting in
between the layers).

Q:  How much will a wedding cake cost?
A:  The price per serving of a wedding cake frosted and filled with buttercream starts at
$2.25 ($3.25 for fondant).  This price is for a basic cake design.  Complexity of design and
cake elements such as fondant or gumpaste flowers or bows, ribbon, etc, are additional and
priced according to the final cake design selected.  Cake fillings (such as fruit or mousse)
are an additional $0.25/serving.

Q:  Can I use sheet cakes to get additional servings needed for a large wedding?
A:  Yes.  Refer to sheet cake prices in our cake brochure.  Sheet cakes will be simply
decorated with a top and bottom border.  Fresh or silk flowers are a nice way to decorate
sheet cakes.  If a more complex design is desired for sheet cakes, there will be an additional
cost.

Q: Is there a delivery fee?
A:  There is no delivery fee for any of our cakes within a twenty (20) mile radius of Huntsville
or Fayetteville.  There is a delivery fee of $1.00/mile one way for locations beyond this limit.  

Q:  How many weddings do you do in a weekend?  
A:  In order to provide the very best service to our customers, at this time, we only do one
wedding cake or other wedding service in one weekend.  In some cases where a wedding
occurs on a Friday or Sunday and we already have a Saturday wedding cake scheduled, we
may take on this additional wedding cake if the schedule allows, at our discretion.  We never
want to compromise quality customer service just to get additional business.


Q:  How do I set up a consultation?
A:  Consultations are done by appointment.  We prepare samples fresh just like our cakes
so please schedule tasting appointments 2-3 days in advance of your desired date.  We
can meet at our shop in Fayetteville, or in Huntsville, at
Party Plus at 1805 University Drive
(at their availability) or we can meet at a location of your choice that is convenient to you.  
Call or
e-mail us to schedule your appointment.
