CUSTOM CAKE FAQ
How far in advance should I place my cake order?
We ask that payment is submitted a minimum of 14 total days prior to event. However, there are occasions we can accommodate a cake on shorter notice. Currently all of our cakes are made to order, so once our custom production schedule fills up, no more cake orders will be accepted even if it's within the 14-day window. We encourage all of our customers to order well in advance, especially during peak holiday and wedding season.
Do you make shaped cakes or sheet cakes?
All cakes are round in shape (with exception of letter/number cakes). Round event cakes consistent of three cake layers. Letter/number cakes consistent of two cake layers and are carved with exposed edges.
Do you work with fondant?
No, our bakery will use only American style buttercream on custom cakes.
Can recipes be modified?
(Reduced sugar, substitute an ingredient, etc)
All of our recipes are tested for quality and approved with the Department of Agriculture, and thus cannot be modified. Additionally, we do not accept any outside recipes.
Do you write on cakes?
At Baked Wright Bakery, we prefer to keep our cakes artful and classic, and do not offer writing on cakes. We do offer toppers.

Why are custom cakes expensive?
Ok. Alright. We get it! Custom cakes can get expensive. Here’s a reason why. Every element of a custom cake is made for you. This comes down to the initial phone call or email, to handing you the final product. All of our cakes are handmade. From mixing to baking, to designing to assembling, to creating is time consuming and laborious. Most custom cakes require consultation time, special elements that need to be special ordered in advance, need custom coloring, and require creative design and research. To us our cakes are more than just ingredients, they are pieces of edible one of a kind masterpiece and we want to make sure our staff is paid accordingly for how much love, care, and attention custom projects require.
