Yes – we love pre-orders! For morning pastries like croissants and muffins, you can call by 3:00 PM the day before. For signature cakes, we ask for 48 hours notice. If you’re looking for a custom cake, we typically need 1 week notice, but it’s subject to availability. Please give us a call at 617-926-2747 to check our schedule.

Yes! We charge a flat delivery rate of $25 within 5 miles of our Watertown facility, and bill $2.75 per mile after that. Let us know where it’s going and we can generate a quote for you.

Morning items such as croissants and muffins, as well as cookies and bars, can be covered in an air-tight container and stored at room temperature. Items containing cheese or meat should be wrapped and refrigerated, and can be popped in the toaster oven to restore to warm, flaky goodness.
Desserts with cream, such as eclairs, cupcakes, and cakes, should be refrigerated. Cakes can be taken out 30-45 minutes before serving so that the buttercream is smooth and soft.

For our signature cakes, we ask for 48 hours notice. If you’re looking for a customized flavor, please allow 36 hours. We typically have 6 inch signature cakes available in store for same day pick up, so call us to see what flavors we have left.
If you’re in need of a custom designed cake, we typically need 5 days notice – but bear in mind this is subject to availability in our schedule. Often people call weeks (or even months!) ahead of time to book cakes, so it may be that your desired date is already full. Please give us a call at 617-926-2747 to check availability.

We do – in a unique way. While we are still converting our store to accommodate sit-down tastings, we are offering individual sized cake samples for you to try at home. For a $30 non-refundable deposit (which is applied toward your wedding cake of $150 or more), our pastry chef will prepare up to three mini cakes finished with our Italian meringue buttercream, which is the basis of our wedding cake finishes. This will give you an idea of the overall flavor of your cake.

Marzipan is a confection consisting primarily of almond meal and sugar. We make ours in-house to use in our specialty Danish baked goods, as well as the finish to certain Signature cakes.
For custom cake designs, we use marzipan instead of fondant to cover cakes, create shapes, and model 3D figures. While marzipan is not as ultra-smooth or ultra-white as fondant, we find our customers prefer its sweet, nutty flavor.
Since marzipan is made from almonds, we definitely do not recommend serving it to someone with a nut allergy, so please make sure your party guests are aware!

If you don’t have someone riding with you to hold the cake box, we recommend place it on the floor in front of the passenger seat. This is a level surface and ensures the cake has no chance to slide or tip during the trip. Of course, be easy on the brakes and take turns gently! If you have a long drive, make sure the interior of the car is relatively cool. You can turn on the AC and direct it through the floor vents if it’s particularly hot.
