Cakes & Sweets
Rule number one - WE ARE NOT A DIET BAKERY.
Rule number two - WE ARE HAPPY TO MAKE (or attempt to make) PRACTICALLY
ANYTHING YOU WISH.
Rule number three - If what you want is excluded by Rule Number One,
Refer to Rule Number Two.
PLEASE NOTE: as of April
2010, we
are no longer stocking retail sweets in quantity. As we've
now made the transition to full service restaurant, grab-n-go sweets
are not our priority any longer.
If you need sweets for a function,
or want a special cake or other dessert, please call ahead. We
will do our best to accommodate special orders with enough notice,
and if we can't, we'll refer you to someone who hopefully can.
But we still make CAKES...
We couldn't possibly stop making cakes. We're pretty proud of our cakes
- particularly the vanilla, chocolate & gluten-free carrot. They're
dense, moist, and velvety - never dry, never crumbly, and never,
never, never airy!
We do not have a "standard" cake
menu... we'll make whatever you want (or at least we'll try)... Cakes
are ONLY available on special order, and require a MINIMUM 1-WEEK
notice... 2 is better, especially if you want something special.
Wedding Cakes require a minimum 3 weeks notice.
Our most popular cakes are:
- Chocolate Ganache - rich dark chocolate cake
filled with your choice of dark chocolate ganache, white chocolate
ganache, whipped cream (plain, chocolate, caramel, irish cream,
hazelnut or peppermint), bavarian cream & berries,
vanilla or caramel cream, chocolate mint chips, butterscotch chips & caramel
cream...
- Vanilla/Lemon - lightly vanilla or lemon flavoured
sponge cake... dense & moist, you know you're eating cake - also
with your choice of fillings: bavarian cream & berries, lemon
curd, grapefruit curd, white chocolate or caramel cream, whipped
cream (lemon, caramel, espresso, almond...)... get creative. NOW

If you have a favorite cake, we're happy to use your
