III. Flavors & Tastings

Your cakes are beautiful, but do they taste good too?

At Artisan Cake Company, we make all of our cakes, buttercream, fondant and decorations from scratch. That means we’re baking them when you order them — no frozen products here! We only use fresh ingredients, including real butter, milk, flour, sugar and eggs! The fondant we use is soft and has the consistency of a marshmallow (since it is made from marshmallows).

This means our cakes not only look beautiful, but they also taste delicious – see what our happy clients are saying!

Our tastings are free and include a variety of cakes, fillings and frostings to sample. If you require special adjustments such as gluten free, please let me know. If you should need to reschedule, or cancel, we ask that you contact us no later than 24 hours in advance.

During the meeting, we will discuss the design of your cake, so please bring any pictures, invitations, etc, that may help us come up with something perfect for your event.  The tasting lasts 1 hour and we ask that you arrive on time to ensure that you are allotted your full hour.
