Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you have Food Safety Training and a Food Safety License?

Yes, we do!  Always insist that anyone who handles your food is a safe handler and that they display their green Food Safety License.  You can check on line by going to the city website (of the area your baker operates in) or by calling the health department.

 

  • Do you have a registered business?

Yes, we do.  We have been in business for six years as Let Them Eat Cakes and have been incorporated for two years.  Rest assured that we are here to say and will be here when your event comes around.

 

  • Do you have a catalogue?

No, we don't really.  On our website are hundreds of cakes that we have made over the past six years, we have a showroom full of examples of our work and an extensive port folio, there's lots to see and lots to choose from.  We encourage our clients to give us elements that will enable us to design a unique cake for you.

 

  • What are your opening times?

Monday to Friday 10.30am to 6pm, Saturdays by appointment or by chance between 10.30am and 2pm (according to our delivery schedule).

 

  • Do I need an appointment to discuss a cake?

No, walk-ins are welcome, however if you would prefer we can organize an appointment and do a more in depth design session.  We only book consultations for wedding cakes.

 

  • What do I bring to an appointment?

Please bring anything that relates to the theme, decoration and colourscheme of your wedding.  Picture of your dress, swatches of your colours, copy of your invitation, list of your flowers.

 

  • Do you make kitchen cakes?

We could, if absolutely necessary, however with clever designing and attention to detail, you shouldn't need kitchen cakes (they usually don't get eaten anyway).  We always recommend that you do not serve wedding cake as the main dessert.

 

  • How many flavours do you make?

This is a difficult question.  We have a whole range of standard cake flavours, specialty cake flavours and we also custom design flavours to your taste.  Technically, there is nothing that we can't do for you, so just ask for details.
