Frequently Asked Questions
You’ll find answers to our most commonly asked questions below. If you’re still stuck, I’m always happy to help - just send an email to catherine@blossombarcakery.com.au
How do I place an order?
Start by heading to the enquire page and filling in as many details as possible. I’ll get back to you with my availability and a quote. If you’re happy to go ahead, a $50 deposit will secure your order.
How much notice do you need?
As much as possible! I will always do my best to fit you in, but sometimes I am fully booked months in advance.
You don’t need to know exactly what you want to reserve a date - if I’m available, you can place a $50 deposit to secure a spot and we can work on the finer details later.
What size are your portions?
All cakes are quoted in coffee sized portions - please refer to our Menu + Sizing pages for further details.
It’s important to consider any other sweet treats being offered at dessert time and whether the cake is being individually plated or on shared platters to know how much cake you’ll need. For any wedding cake enquiries, please include how your cake will be plated in your enquiry.
If you’re needing to serve a large number of people but don’t want a massive cake on display, we are more than happy to provide slab cakes in the same flavour for serving.
How is my cake presented?
Your cake will come on a display board a few inches larger than your cake. It will also be placed into a box with serving and care instructions.
How does pickup & delivery work?
If you’d like to collect your order, you can do so from my home studio in Modbury, SA.
I recommend pickup to be the day of your event to ensure structural integrity. If your cake does not contain fresh flowers you are welcome to collect the day before, so long as you have space in your fridge to store it overnight. A time for collection will be arranged a few days prior. I kindly ask that you are punctual to ensure I am on time for other collections & deliveries.
Please note if you do opt to pick up, we take no responsibility to repair any damages that have been caused in transit. Your car will need to be well air-conditioned with the cake placed on a flat surface. Be sure if you have any other errands to run that you do so before you collect your cake so you can drive directly to your destination and avoid it being in the car for any longer than it has to be.
Delivery and set up for custom orders is available at an additional cost that varies depending on your location, starting at $20. I strongly recommend delivery for cakes 2 tiers and over - I have plenty of experience in getting your cake to you safe and sound!
Do you offer cake tastings?
Most definitely, it’s the best part of getting married! I aim to offer cake tastings a few times a year.
When they are available they will be advertised on my social media pages, and via email to those who have requested to be notified.
What is your cancellation policy?
Please refer to my Cancellation and Order Change Policy if you need to change or cancel your order.
