For example, let’s say you’re planning a beach-themed wedding and want a cake that reflects your love of the ocean. Our designers can create a stunning cake featuring sugar sea shells, starfish, and other beach-inspired details. Or, if you’re looking for something a bit more rustic, we can create a cake that features a distressed finish and natural elements like twigs and leaves. Whatever your vision, we’re here to help you bring it to life.

When it comes to ordering a custom cake, timing is everything. We recommend ordering at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure availability of your desired design and flavors. However, if you’re planning a last-minute celebration, don’t worry – we can still work with you to create a stunning cake. Just be aware that our availability may be limited, and we may need to adjust our design or flavors to accommodate your tight deadline.

One of the best things about custom cakes is the ability to personalize them to your liking. At Carlo’s Bakery, we offer a range of flavors and fillings to suit every taste and dietary need.

And if you’re looking for something a bit more adventurous, we can even create custom fillings like lavender and honey or strawberry and balsamic. Just let us know what you’re in the mood for, and we’ll do our best to create it!

Our custom cakes come in a range of sizes to suit every occasion. From 6 to 12 inches, we have options to fit every table and every guest list.

Just keep in mind that larger cakes may require additional time and planning to ensure they’re delivered on time and in one piece.

At Carlo’s Bakery, we understand that sometimes you can’t be there in person to pick up your custom cake. That’s why we offer delivery and shipping options to get your cake where you need it.

Need a custom cake for a last-minute event or celebration? Don’t worry – we can still help! While we recommend ordering at least 2 weeks in advance, we understand that sometimes things come up at the last minute. Just be aware that our availability may be limited, and we may need to adjust our design or flavors to accommodate your tight deadline. But with our expert designers and state-of-the-art equipment, we can still create a stunning cake that’s sure to impress.

Once you’ve picked up your custom cake, it’s time to think about preservation and storage. To keep your cake fresh for as long as possible, we recommend storing it in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposing your cake to direct sunlight or heat, as this can cause it to spoil quickly. If you’re not serving your cake immediately, consider freezing it for up to 3 months – just be sure to thaw it slowly in the refrigerator before serving.

Want to ensure your custom cake arrives at the perfect moment? Request a specific delivery time when you place your order, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request. Just keep in mind that we can’t guarantee exact delivery times, as this may depend on factors like traffic and weather conditions. But we’ll always do our best to get your cake to you on time and in one piece.
