FAQ's


Q: How do I transport my cake safely?

A: When transporting your cake, it is important to handle it with care to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. Here are some tips:

Place the cake on a flat surface, such as the floor of your car or in the boot, to avoid any tilting or sliding during transport.

Keep the cake in a cool and level position, away from direct sunlight or heat sources that could melt or damage the icing.

If possible, use a non-slip mat or secure the cake box with non-slip materials to prevent movement during transit.

Q: How should I store my cake before the event?

A: To maintain the freshness and quality of your cake before the event, follow these guidelines:

It is best to store it in the refrigerator in the box provided to prevent drying out or absorbing odors.

Cakes with non-perishable fillings, such as buttercream or ganache, can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. During periods of hot weather we recommend refrigerating all cakes for as long as possible before cutting.
