Slow down there, partner!

With everything being customizable down to the ingredients, there is no real way to ballpark a cost. We understand this can be frustrating but we will work with you no matter your budget. 

How to find YOUR price:

Step 1: Submit a form

Step 2: Receive an invoice

Step 3: We can chat about solutions if it's not what you expected. 

Because everything is 100% customizable, the price has to be determined after you have submitted your order form. 

You'll receive your invoice via email within 3 business days. We can still make adjustments at that point.

We understand everyone's schedule is different and can be a mess. Ours is too. Full disclosure, our=my, we=me. It's only me running this bakery and every second counts, including seconds on the road. 

In order for "us" to be on the ball and get back to baking, the delivery window (time frame) STARTS at 7:30am. That means depending on how many deliveries we have to take that day, yours could arrive at 7:30am, 7:47am, 8:03am, 8:12am... you get it. 

We will always reach out to your order recipient the day/night before to let them know what to expect. They will also be updated on when their order will arrive via text.

If you're ordering for someone else, you will also be notified of any delivery issues. You'll also get a picture of your order the day/night before! 

Make credit card fees a thing of the past! You are welcome to pay your invoice via Venmo, Apple Pay, Cash App, Zelle, or Paypal.
