do you have any care instructions?
general
the general rule of thumb is that desserts and cakes need to be kept refrigerated until around the time of serving. all baked goods are meltable in FL weather without proper refrigeration/AC so do not leave it in your car for extended periods of time (ie running errands or making extra stops on the way to your destination)!
for transportation: cakes and desserts should be placed on a flat and level surface (no tilted car seats!) with the AC on.
we are not responsible for any damage that happens once your order leaves our care, so please heed these handling instructions carefully!
cakes
cakes should be kept refrigerated until about a two hours before serving (if indoors) or ideally no more than an hour before serving (if it will be displayed outside).
our cakes are made with buttercream or cream cheese icing, both of which are highly meltable in hot weather- so please use your best judgement for any outdoor events.
​
any leftovers can be refrigerated and will keep for up to a week (if they last that long).
​
macarons
macarons should be stored in the refrigerator or freezer, but are best eaten at room temperature!
they will keep for a couple of days at room temperature, up to two weeks in the fridge, or up to three month in the freezer.
desserts
pavlova, custard based pies, or anything with whipped cream should always be refrigerated.
other desserts (brownies, cakies, cookies, etc) may be stored in the fridge for up to a week but can be served at any temp you prefer (cold, room temp, warmed up)

are you allergen friendly?
while we will always try to accommodate any allergy related requests if we're able, we do process nuts and wheat/gluten in our kitchen, and so can't guarantee 100% allergen free baked goods.
please proceed on the side of caution for any extreme allergies or sensitivities.
