A)
When to order your wedding cake
We ask that all
wedding cake orders be placed at least one month in advance. Although we
only ask for one months notice, the only way to be sure that you will be
guaranteed a cake for your wedding is to order as soon as possible. We
tend to book up fast for weekend weddings in wedding season
(May-September).
Last minute cake orders:
As long as we are not
booked and able, we gladly accept last minute orders. However, with most
things last minute, not all cake designs will still be available to you.
If your cake order is
placed with less than two weeks notice a full payment is due at that
time for your order to be processed.
Groom’s Cake
If you are ordering a
Groom’s cake you have to place that order at the same time you are
placing your wedding cake order. If you do not order your groom’s cake
at that time we cannot guarantee that we will be available to do your
Groom’s cake for your wedding as well.

B)
Picking a cake that fits your price range
We have a wide variety
of cake designs for all price ranges from traditional to contemporary.
Our buttercream cakes start at $4 per person and our fondant cakes
start and $6 per person. Depending on the cake design you choose an
additional “art charge” may be added.
Fillings cost a flat
$6.00 per tier, no matter what the size.

C)
Choosing your cake design
This is the fun part!
The first step in choosing your design is picking the style, whether it
is buttercream or fondant. After you know what kind or icing you want,
its time to pick a cake. When looking at cake designs don’t just look at
the colors because with most cakes the colors can be changed to fit your
own style and wedding. Find a shape, size, style, you like. Once you
have this we can customize your cake to fit your own wedding.
Do I have to pick one of
Enticing Icings designs?
Nope!! If you don’t see
anything in our collection that you like, bring us a picture of one that
you do like. As long as we are able, we are more than happy to recreate
the cake for you. If you want a design you have only seen in your
dreams, together we can design a cake that will match your own wedding
and personalities.
What about dummy tiers
to make my cake appear taller?
We can add dummy ties
(Styrofoam, decorated like the rest of your cake) to the bottom of your
wedding cake to give your cake more height. It would appear to look like
just another tier of cake. The cost of the dummy tier(s) would go on a
case-by-case basis, depending on the design of the actual cake.
Exact colors
If you want an exact
color, a swatch is required for matching. Otherwise we cannot guarantee
that your color will be exact.

D)
Separations, stands, gumpaste, etc
Separations and stands
If you order a cake with
separations or a stand, a deposit is usually required to rent the
equipment. Your deposit will be returned in full as long as the
equipment is returned clean and undamaged in the 2 weeks after your
wedding. If the equipment is returned after 2 weeks only half of your
deposit will be returned. If the equipment is returned after 30 days
none of your deposit will be refunded.
Gumpaste, pearls, and
other non-edible décor
If you order a cake that
has any non-edible décor on it, the decorations MUST be removed BEFORE
consumption. We will not be held responsible for any injury.

E)
Fresh flowers, buttercream, and gumpaste flowers
Fresh flowers
If you are having fresh
flowers on your wedding cake and want us to put the flowers on your
cake, the flowers MUST be in the form of a lay-on arrangement. We are
not florist and will not arrange the flowers on your wedding cake. If
you have a florist, it is also important to give your florist the
measurements and dimensions of your wedding cake so they can charge you
accordingly. If you want flowers on your wedding cake it is also
important for them to be edible flowers. Your florist should be able to
provide you with a list of edible flowers suitable to be placed on your
cake.
Buttercream
Most of the time
buttercream flowers are included in the cost of the cake. However, if
you would like an excessive amount of buttercream flowers, an additional
charge might be added. You can also order buttercream flowers by
themselves for serving purposes. (A buttercream flower on each piece of
cake when serving looks nice)
Gumpaste flowers,
fondant bows, etc.
Gumpaste flowers, though
they are made with edible ingredients, should not be eaten. Most of the
time they have wire in them that is NOT edible and may cause injury.
Fondant bows and other
fondant décor are edible. Gumpaste and fondant decorations will always
have an extra charge.

F) Delivery
You always have the
option to pick up your cake and get it to your reception site
yourselves. I HIGHLY recommend that we should deliver anything over 2
tiers. Delivery is $1.40 per mile (one way). Sunday deliveries will cost an additional $50.00, and holiday
deliveries will cost an additional $75.00. For more information on
delivery fees please contact us with your reception information and we
can give you a delivery fee quote.
If you order delivery
for your wedding cake, we will need to know what time your reception or
wedding starts and what time your wedding cake table will be ready for
delivery. With this information we will give you a one-hour window for
which your wedding cake will be delivered. No exact delivery times will
be given. When the cake is delivered someone will need to be there to
sign that the cake was received in good condition.
