There is not a set price as each cake design is created according to each customer needs & requirements.
Custom cake prices mainly depend of the type and size of the cake, complexity of the design and the decoration techniques required for each creation.
Our minimum order is QR 500.00 for a single tier round cake 8” x 5” tall with standard buttercream frosting or basic fondant decoration (Don’t include 3D molding figurines or sculpted/structure cakes)
As a reference fondant covered cakes price start at QR 20.00 per serving while buttercream covered cakes start at QR 15.00 per serving.
