FAQs
How do I order a cake?
Please submit an inquiry through the contact page and you can expect a response within 24-48 hours. The remainder of the process includes the following:
D E P O S I T: To book, a 50% deposit will secure your event date. You can view cake prices using the “Pricing Guide” button below. This deposit will count toward the total price of your final cake. I do not hold celebration dates without a deposit, so there is a possibility your date may not be available if you choose to wait until after your tasting.
T A S T I N G: If you so choose, order a cake taster box! Tastings occur on the last Saturday of each month with limited availability, and your invoice must be paid at least 2 weeks in advance to book your tasting date. Sample boxes include six cake flavors in the form of 2-layer cake jars.
a. Sit-down experience: Connor will meet you at Lofty Coffee in Encinitas where he’ll treat you to coffee and have a prepared table ready with your choice of six cake tasters. At this meeting we will also conduct a design meeting where we will review a draft design sketch based on your event day styling and vision. This option is $150.
b. Pick-up: If you'd prefer to pick up your cake box to-go and enjoy them on your own, this option is $80. We will then follow-up with a phone call design meeting to finalize your cake details once you’ve booked your date.
D E S I G N M E E T I N G: If you choose to forgo the sit-down option or cake tasting all together, we will follow-up with a phone call design meeting. During this meeting, you will be presented with a one-of-a-kind design sketch based on your personal vision and inspiration photos. We will discuss your design, color palette, flower arrangements, and any changes you’d like to make. Once we finalize your cake design, size, and flavor you’ll receive a final quote, and the remainder must be paid no later than 30 days prior to your event date. From there you’ll be all set to receive your dream cake!

Do you create all designs?
My design work utilizes hand-made, edible artistry inspired from many aspects of nature and organic geometry. I decline to make “vintage”-style, “lambeth”-style cakes, and fresh flower cakes. I specialize in creating edible artistry using various mediums such as buttercream, wafer paper, rice paper, and fondant.
How far in advance should I book my cake?
I'm booking celebrations up to 12 months in advance. I recommend booking quickly so you can ensure you can reserve your place on my calendar. I also have limited short-term availability within 3 months. If you’d like to reserve your date prior to proceeding with the design process, you can place a “save-the-date” deposit which will guarantee your spot for your event and will also count toward your total cake order.
Do you offer cakes with dietary restrictions?
Yes, most of my cake flavors can be made gluten-free, and some can be made vegan or dairy free. Please reference the “Craft Flavor” menu where you can view which flavors can be altered for special dietary restrictions.
Do you offer desserts as well?
Yes! When you inquire please include that you’re interested in other desserts and I’d be happy to share my options with you!
