Preparations for your Cake Consultation

Preparations for your Cake Consultation

Tasting your cake before you get down to the decision is a must. There's no telling that along with your other preparations, scheduling a cake consultation with your cake designer should be in the list too.

Whether it’s for a wedding, an intimate gathering, or a milestone event, your dream dessert starts with an intentional process. Let’s walk you through the basics so you can arrive prepared, inspired, and excited:

✧ Step 1: Collate Your Ideas & Pegs

Gather your favorite cake inspirations. These could be photos from your moodboard, details from your dress, event theme, floral palette, or even the story behind your relationship. No detail is too small — these are the elements we translate into flavor and form.

✧ Step 2: Shortlist the Styles & Decide on a Theme

Do you gravitate toward minimalist tiers, modern buttercream textures, or classic floral designs? Are you celebrating with a garden brunch, a coastal sunset, or an indoor candlelit soirée? Narrowing down your style and theme helps us craft a cake that harmonizes with your overall aesthetic.

✧ Step 3: Share Your Moodboard

Whether you’re using Pinterest or a curated PDF, send over your moodboard before your appointment. This gives our team a better feel for your vision — from colors and textures to emotions and ambiance. The more intentional, the better.

What Happens During the Tasting

At your scheduled consultation, we’ll serve a curated selection of our signature flavors — tried and tested favorites crafted in our studio kitchen. Feel free to mix and match, combine flavors per tier, or request subtle adjustments (less sweet, added zest, more crunch — we love co-creating).

Have a unique flavor idea in mind? Let us know in advance. We’re happy to develop custom flavors upon request to better suit your taste (or diet).

Don’t Forget the Drinks

If you’re planning to book a beverage cart or curated drinks table along with your cake, we can also include a drink pairing consultation. Choose from our handcrafted coffee, tea, matcha, or fruit-based refreshers. These are perfect as welcome drinks, for cocktail hour, or as part of our dessert bar.

To-Go Samplers, If You Prefer

For clients who prefer a slower, more intimate tasting experience, to-go samplers are available for pre-order. We’ll pack your chosen flavors (and drinks, if requested) beautifully, so you can enjoy them at home or during your event planning day.

 

Final Thoughts

Think of your cake consultation not just as a tasting — but as a moment of calm, creativity, and celebration. We’re honored to be part of your story, and we can’t wait to bring your dream cake (and drinks!) to life.
