FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Cakes START at $2.50/slice and go up from there. Event planning starts at $500 for just day of coordinating, and go up from there.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process depends on the circumstances of the order or event. If you are only needing a cake, and it is less than $250, then I generally work by email/text to get your order in and finalized and simply deliver the cake on the agreed upon date/time/location. If it is a cake upwards of $250, then we generally meet for a free tasting, and finalize details at that time. For event planning, I insist on meeting with clients to put together an initial quote and periodic meetings for any details that need to be done throughout.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have decorated cakes since I was 8 years old, and as a teen I decorated for a shop in Tacoma WA. As an adult I made cakes here and there for friends and family. And, in 2007, started making them for paying clients. I have always been the one to plan any family events, and events for friends. When I was in the Junior Chamber Of Commerce, I planned several of their events, and the event planning portion of my business grew from there.
