What is a 3D Cake?

A 3D cake is a normal shaped cake (round, square, rectangle or heart)and has three dimensional artwork on top.  This artwork is usually fondant. gumpaste, rice krispy treats, or edible candy or cookie.  This type of cake is usually less expensive than a sculpted cake and your flavors and fillings aren't limited because of stability issues. 

What is a Sculpted Cake?

A sculpted cake is the most labor intensive cake you I create.  It is a cake that starts out as a mixture of flour, sugar, butter and eggs, and becomes whatever you want it to be.  It's also 3 dimensional and sometimes needs special supports and cake stands built for it ahead of time depending on the design.  Sculpted cakes take away some choices you have in flavors and fillings, as some ingredients can't be used for stability reasons.

What your assured of when ordering a cake from me:

    - a warm and friendly professional to do business with
    - top quality and taste using the finest ingredients
    - individualized attention to detail, I try to make every cake unique and special
    - prompt and courteous delivery service
    
Most cake orders require 2 weeks for completions although I can occasionally accept requests with less notice.  Due to complexity, certain cakes require more notice - especially wedding cakes.  Since my cakes are so specialized, I may not always be able to take your order.  Also, I am usually not able to take a last minute order.  I will NOT rush a cake and not be able to give it my utmost attention.  My main goal is quality as it is my job to make you look good.

Why is there no price list?

Because every cake I do is so custom, prices vary from cake to cake depending on the number of servings,  what kind of material I used for the artwork, labor time (biggest factor), cake flavors, special ingredients, and if special equipment is needed.  Pricing for a basic 3D or sculpted cake begins at $50

As  you can see by my photos, what I do is very specialized...you don't see these kinds of cakes in your bakery.  I don't do plain sheet cakes, birthday cakes and your plain bakery cakes.  It's important to know that all the cakes I do are all labor intensive and the take a LOT of time.  Some cakes take me a week to construct.  Because of this, they are quite pricy.  My ingredients are expensive and I only use top quality products.

How do I order a cake?


You can email me at gailsbakemyday@gmail.com  or call 229.861.2949. If you're not sure about what you want, I will be more than glad to help you over the phone or set up a meeting to discuss design.  Although I want to accommodate your wishes, I have found that my best cakes have been when I have been given a bit of flexibility lead way with the design after we discuss your theme you want.  I will make every effort to keep prices reasonable for your budget and for me.


Cake flavor and fillings...

I can work with just about any flavor cake you would like.  Some favorites are almond, strawberry, chocolate, butter cream, etc.  I don't have a set listing of flavors or fillings.  I will basically make whatever type of cake you wish to have.  Everybody has such different ideas about what makes a good tasting cake that I let you tell me what you want and will make every effort to accommodate you.


Delivery, Pick-up and Shipping

First of all, I CAN NOT SHIP cakes.  Unfortunately, I cannot be sure the cake will arrive in the condition it left me.  I will, however, ship cookies, date bars, pound cakes and such, with the understanding that they will be packed with the greatest of care but I cannot be responsible for the condition in which they arrive, since I have no control over that.  You may pick up your order or I will deliver for a delivery fee of $25 within 25 miles and $50 26-50 miles.  Deliveries over 50 miles (if available) will be $75 plus mileage.*
