Anything to avoid?

Pick all that apply. It goes on your order and the kitchen checks it.

The kitchen will check this and call you before we bake. If we can't make it, we'll refund you.

We bake with gluten, eggs, milk, peanuts, tree nuts, soya, sesame and sulphites in one kitchen, so we can't promise anything is free from any allergen.

    Finish
    Help me choose a finish

    Outdoors or a long drive? Whipped cream has to stay in the fridge, so choose buttercream or fondant.

    Want the layers to show? Semi-naked or naked.

    Sharp, polished edges? Fondant.

    Still not sure? Give the kitchen a call.

    Choose the original photo from your phone or camera, not a screenshot, so it prints sharp.

    Colour

    This colours the icing. Toppings keep their own colours.

    Pick the shade you'd like. It's a guide rather than a promise: we mix every colour by hand and get as close to it as we can.

    Toppings

    Optional. Pick as many as you like. Some have a small charge, added under your cake in the basket.

    Questions about building your cake

    How much does a custom cake cost?

    The builder shows the price as you choose. It changes with the size and any extras, like a drip or a topper, so you see the total before it goes in your basket.

    What size cake do I need?

    Each cake shows how many it serves before you choose, from a 5 inch bento for up to 5 people to a 10 inch for around 30. Our cake size guide compares every size side by side.

    Can I put a photo on the cake?

    Yes. Choose the photo print finish in Build your own, upload your photo, and we print it for the top.

    How much notice do you need?

    Cupcakes and small bakes need 2 days, most celebration cakes need 3, and tiered and showpiece cakes need at least 2 weeks. Order by 2pm and that day counts. Each cake shows its earliest day before it goes in your basket.

    Need one sooner? See what we can make soonest, or ring us on 020 8087 4785.

    Can you make something free from an allergen?

    We can leave an ingredient out, but we can't promise a bake is free from it. Our kitchen uses several allergens, so traces are always possible. Each product lists what it contains and may contain. If you have a severe allergy, ring us on 020 8087 4785 before you order.
