How to Transport, Store and Cut your Celebration Cake

I put my heart and soul into making your cake perfect for your event so it's only right for me to give guidelines on how to transport your cake and store it to ensure it reaches its final destination:

  • Your cake will be assembled and stored in a cake box labelled with allergen information which you will need to be able to provide to your guests on request. 

  • When carrying your cake it is important that the cake is kept flat and that you hold the cake underneath the box, never at the sides. Avoid tipping the box back towards you as this could lead to any toppers toppling off the cake or cause the cake to slide. 

  • I highly recommend you transport your cake in the boot of the car. Never put your cake on a seat. No matter how flat you think your car seats are, they are not. If you don’t have any boot space, then a footwell would be the next best place (without the heating on). 

  • To avoid the box slipping around, you could you use a non-slip mat such as a Yoga mat underneath the box. 

  • Drive carefully!  Avoid sudden braking and take corners as slowly as you can.  Plan your route to avoid speed bumps if possible. 

  • When you get the cake home keep it at room temperature, out of direct sunlight. Do not put the cake in the fridge as this will make the fondant covering or modelled toppers sweat.

  • Finally, enjoy your celebration and the cake!!

With all of my cakes being 4 layers tall, the traditional cake slice you'd naturally cut just ends up being far too big. Yes there is such a thing.

I've put together this visual to show you how to cut finger slices. Up to step 3 is a great portion size but if that still feels a little too much, you can slice in half again, as in step 4.
