Your Cake Making questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much do custom cakes cost?

A custom cake costs $70 to $400 on average, depending on which design, flavor, and size you choose. Larger, complex cakes with 3 or more tiers cost $200 to $800 or more. 

Custom cakes are an excellent way to make special memories during a birthday party, anniversary celebration, or other event.

Does Costco do custom cakes?

You can order a custom design on a cake from Costco, but ther choices are extremely limited. Depending on the location, the bakery may only be able to write a few words in frosting or put a simple buttercream image like balloons or a cactus.

However, the following locations have more options for custom designs:

  • Walmart 
  • Publix
  • HEB
  • Baskin Robbins
  • Sam's Club
  • Whole foods
  • Safeway
  • Albertson's
  • Tour Les Jours

How far in advance should I order a custom cake?

You should order a custom cake at least 1 to 4 weeks before your celebration. The exact timeline for ordering a custom cake will depend on how popular the bakery is, whether it's a busy season, and how much staff they have.

Can I return a custom cake?

No, you typically can't retuan a cake once they hand it over to you for food safety reasons. However, some bakeries will offer a partial or full refund if there's something wrong with the cake.

How do I choose a custom cake maker?

You can find a great cake maker by following these steps:

  • Compare prices from at least three local bakeries or stores.
  • Read reviews specifically for custom cake makers on Fash and Google.
  • Look at pictures of their cakes from other customers.
  • Make sure they're able to make the cake by the time you need it.
  • Get a detailed quote in writing.

What questions should I ask cake makers?

Asking these questions can help you find a high-quality cake maker:

  • How long have you been making or decorating cakes?
  • Can you make the cake I want by this date?
  • Is this price for naked cakes or frosted cakes?
  • How large of a cake would you recommend?
  • What type of frosting and fillings do you have?
  • Can you print edible pictures on the cake?
  • Do you have a minimum price or fee?
  • Can I see pictures of cakes you've done with a similar design?
  • Do you make smash cakes? How mcuh do those cost?
  • Do you make sheet cakes? How big are they?

It was a pleasure to work with a company with so much insight into menu options that would work best for what we had in mind and for an outdoor venue. The food selections were perfect! Also appreciated were the attention to detail with décor provided for the event and flexibility with some last-minute menu changes.
