What are my icing choices?
Our main icing is buttercream and ganache, however depending on the type of
cake many other options are available. Please call us at 734 7305090. We
also offer fondant.
What is buttercream?
Buttercream is a mixture of butter, sugar and eggs used to fill and frost
cakes. We make our buttercream "Swiss meringue" style, which is light and
fluffy in texture (never grainy or too sugary). Since we use real butter the
best way to enjoy our buttercream is at room temperature hence the
cake needs to be removed from the refrigerator at least an hour before
serving to soften the buttercream.
What is ganache?
Ganache is a rich, thick chocolate filling made from melted dark chocolate
and cream.
What is fondant?
Fondant is like sugar play dough. We knead it, roll it out in sheets and lay
it over the cake. Fondant offers a range of design options for more formal
cakes. Most of the cakes you see featured in wedding magazines are covered
in fondant. It gives a smooth flawless matte finish, and can be draped,
painted on and tinted among other things.
Should I keep my cake refrigerated?
Yes, we recommend you keep all your cakes with perishable frostings and
fillings refrigerated if they will not be served within a few hours of
purchase. Remove cakes from the refrigerator at least an hour prior to
serving to bring it back to room temperature.
However, try to avoid refrigerating cakes that are without perishable
frostings and fillings because it dries a cake. You can keep them at room
temperature to maintain freshness and moisture. Make sure you wrap them with
plastic wrap and/or foil.
Food Allergens & Sensitivities/I am allergic to nuts, can I consume your
products?
We do not encourage the consumption of our products if you are allergic to
nuts or nut oils. Our equipment may have come in contact with these
ingredients during the baking process. While we will do our best to
accommodate our customers’ special requests, we cannot guarantee with 100%
confidence that the product will be nut free.
