FAQ's
General, and product questions.
Where and how are your cupcakes, cakes & brownies made?
All baked goods sold in-store and online via our website are baked and decorated in a commercial kitchen in our brand new store in Leichhardt.
We do not operate a production line or use industrial machinery. Everything is freshly baked each day in small batches and decorated one order at a time! It's why they taste so good.
Can I attach a gift note with my order?
Yes, on checkout there is an option to write a gift message. There are no additional costs for this.
Do you sell or hire out cupcake stands/towers?
Most definitely. We have several sized tiers for rent starting from $20. The cupcake stands can only be picked up in store. We also have cardboard stands available for purchase on-line and in store.
