~ Do you offer nut free, dairy free and gluten free options?

Unfortunately, we do not currently offer nut free, dairy free or gluten free cookie or cake options. Our products are prepared in a kitchen where cross contamination may occur.

~ How should I store my sugar cookies?

Sugar cookies should be stored at room temperature, in a cool airconditioned room, not in the fridge.

~ How should I store my cake / cupcakes?

Fondant cakes & fondant covered cupcakes should not be refrigerated and stored at room temperature. This also includes cakes with fondant flowers. Do not keep fondant flowers in the fridge, as sugar flowers don’t like humidity. Any sign of moisture will cause the flowers to soften and go limp.

For buttercream covered cakes & cupcakes, it is best to keep them refrigerated where possible. Remove from fridge to allow to come to room temperature at least 2 hours prior to serving.

All orders are best consumed within 24-48 hours of pickup.
