kia ora cake lovers
here is an updated pricing list for caits cakes. the most important thing is to message if you have questions!
NOTES:
1. Cake sizes are approximate. If you have 11 guests, I would choose a 10-person cake, however if you had 15 guests I would recommend the next size up.
2. BASIC FLAVOURS – these are classic flavours such as chocolate and vanilla but can also be any flavour that doesn’t require extra cost. Some other basic flavours may include:
- Caramel
- Mint chocolate
- Banana
- Carrot
- Red velvet
- Lemon
- Coffee
A basic flavour can be anything you can dream up; I’m always thrilled to try new recipes and ideas 😊 one of my favourite basic cakes to make is an earl grey and lavender cake!
3. SPECIALITY FLAVOURS – simply, these are cakes that have extra ingredients that cost more. Some examples:
- A vanilla bean cake (with real vanilla pods used)
- a mud cake (chocolate is expensive! We can always discuss different chocolate options though)
- real fruit cakes (ie. Raspberry white choc)
- a cake with alcohol baked in it
- a cheesecake or ice cream cake (please don’t ha-ha)
- a cake with an ingredient that is hard to find in New Zealand
4. TWO TIER CAKES – these cost more because of the dowels and extra board required, as well as the option for multiple flavours 😊 note: unfortunately, I’m not comfortable with more than two tiers at this time.
5. EXTRAS – please just let me know if you have extras that you are wanting, and we can chat about the concept and the price.
6. SPECIALITY ICING – again, this is just like the cake, if it requires more time or cost it will be extra. Some examples of speciality icing include:
- Swiss/ French/Italian buttercream
- Fondant covering
- Ganache
7. Things that are always included in the price:
- Buttercream icing (any colour or flavour!)
- Sprinkles (as many as you like! I’ve got some really cool ones)
- Drip
- Basic ‘happy birthday ….’ Writing
- “gold” or “silver” leaf
- Sparkles
- Basic candles
- A cake box and board!
8. CAKE TOPPERS can be a basic “happy birthday” topper for $5, or if you want a custom writing one, I have a great source! You are also more than welcome to pop your own topper on afterwards.
9. ALCOHOL obviously, is for over 18 cakes only, and the bottle will not be opened.
I’m so excited to work with you to create a cake that celebrates you or your special person! Please feel free to ask any questions or send through ideas so that we can create something amazing AND edible together!
