What We Bake

Three kinds of cakes leave this studio: tiered wedding cakes, themed birthday and celebration cakes, and fully sculpted 3D builds. Each one starts the same way, with a conversation about your event, and ends the same way, delivered and set up where it needs to be. Pick the category that fits your occasion to see what the process looks like.

What Ordering a Custom Cake Involves

Ordering a custom cake in Savannah is not a transaction, it is a short collaboration. You describe the event, we translate it into a design you can see before you commit, and then the kitchen work happens on our side until delivery day. Most clients spend under an hour of their own time on the whole process, spread across a few short exchanges from first message to confirmation.

Consultation and Design

It starts with your quote request: the date, the guest count, and whatever inspiration you have, even if that is just a color or a feeling. We come back with design ideas, a sketch or written concept depending on how detailed the cake is, and a quote with the price broken out. Nothing is locked in until you approve the design, so there is no cost and no commitment in getting the conversation started.

Baking and Decoration

Once the design is approved, the baking happens close to your event so the cake is genuinely fresh, never weeks-old frozen stock. Fillings are made in-house, buttercream and fondant work is done by hand, and any sculpted or structural elements are built and tested before they ever meet your cake. This is also where dietary notes and flavor pairings get sorted, since those decisions are easier to make early than to retrofit.

Delivery and Setup

Finished cakes do not ride in a box on a passenger seat. We deliver across the Savannah area ourselves, wedding cakes included, and we set the cake up at the venue so it is standing finished and camera-ready before your guests walk in. Tiered and sculpted cakes travel in stages when they need to and are assembled on site, which is why we ask for the venue and delivery address up front.

When a Custom Cake Matters

A supermarket sheet cake feeds people. A custom cake marks the day. There is a real difference, and it shows up in specific moments: the wedding where the cake has to hold its own in a reception hall full of styled details, the first birthday where the theme is the whole party, the retirement or anniversary where a generic cake would quietly undercut an otherwise thoughtful event. It also shows up at kids' parties where the cake itself is the entertainment, which is more common than you would think.

Custom work earns its place whenever the cake carries meaning beyond dessert. If that describes your event, tell us what you are celebrating. If you genuinely just need to feed a crowd affordably, we will tell you that too, because the honest answer up front saves everybody time. Either way, the quote form on this page is the fastest way to find out.

What Custom Cakes Cost

Custom cake pricing is driven by servings, design complexity, and structure. A single-tier buttercream birthday cake sits at one end of the range, a four-tier wedding cake with sugar florals sits in the middle, and a carved, gravity-defying sculpted build sits at the top because of the hours it takes. We keep the full breakdown on the pricing page, including every factor that moves a quote up or down.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I order a custom cake?

For weddings, reach out as soon as your date is set. Three to six months out is comfortable, though we can sometimes take a booking with less notice depending on the calendar. For birthday and celebration cakes, two to three weeks is usually enough, and sculpted designs need at least a month because of the build work involved.

How much does a custom cake cost in Savannah?

It depends on servings, design, and structure. Simple buttercream celebration cakes start lower, tiered wedding cakes are priced by the serving, and sculpted 3D cakes cost the most because of the hours of carving and detailing involved. Our cake pricing guide walks through every factor, and the fastest way to get a real number is to send us your event details through the quote form.

Do you deliver cakes to venues?

Yes. We deliver and set up cakes across Savannah, Pooler, Richmond Hill, and Bluffton, including wedding venues. Tiered and sculpted cakes are transported assembled or in tiers and finished on site, so the design arrives the way it left the studio.

How do I get a quote for my cake?

Fill out the quote request form on this site. Tell us your event date, how many guests you are expecting, and anything you know about the design or theme. We reply to every request within one business day with questions or a quote, and there is no obligation until you approve the design.

Can you match a cake design I saw online?

Usually, yes, with one honest caveat: we will never copy another baker’s work piece for piece. Send us the inspiration photo and we will tell you what elements we can recreate, what we would change to make it yours, and how those choices affect the price. Most clients end up with a design inspired by the photo but better suited to their event.
