YUMMYLICIOUS OR WHAT?!?!
This entry is brought to you by CocoSya.
Here’s a list of QnA for her, which might be useful for you! Read on!
1- Can I get my wedding cake for just $50?
KAU GILA?
(Okay, this was NOT what she replied.)
Sorry dear, nope.
Maybe possible for Prima Deli 1kg fruit / chocolate cakes or Swensen cakes (min 1.5 kg) but hello, this is your wedding cake. Unless you don’t mind any type of cakes lah.
Engagement cakes starts from $200. Wedding cakes start from $400.
Normal customised birthday cakes start from $80.
2- Wah, so expensive one!
You’re paying not just for the ingredients. The chef’s skills and creativity + long hours from design to final touches. Its actually a 3-5 days’ worth of preparation, not something overnight, hor.
It includes 2-way transportation + set up by your pelamin.
3- Can I order within 24 hours?
Sorry, nope. We still need to go to get the ingredients for you. Although Mustafa Centre opens 24/7, sorry hor. We get our ingredients elsewhere.
Best to place order 30 days before your event, please. Birthday cakes at least one week, can.
4- So I pay only after I’ve eaten the cake, finish?
You comedian, or want to die stand up?
Book your cake / slot with 50% deposit, after confirmation.
FULL PAYMENT before we set up the cake, or else we don’t come.
Within the same month of booking, we need a full payment please.
5- How about delivery? Can call LalaMove or GrabFood?
At your own risk, hor. Its best that we deliver to you personally, to ensure that there shall be no defects upon reach. If there’s any, then we shall do the necessary, don’t worry.
6- What’s the trending wedding cakes so far?
Refer to the few samples here – the faultline cake + cascading flowers design. Looking simply elegant, but headache-ly to do.
Otherwise there’s always Pinterest and IG – just search for #weddingcakes
7- What’s the biggest wedding cake you’ve done?
A 5-tier wedding cake (see below image). Its way above the average budget, it is priced at >$1000.
Funfact: the flower designs alone takes 2 hours = 120 minutes = 7,200 seconds to make.
8- What if I want to order smaller ones lah… got cupcakes?
Yes, we do cupcakes too! Please make your inquiries online.
9- What about the flavours? Got nasi lemak rendang flavour anot?
You think what? We’re McDonald’s ah?
We have a list of popular flavours. Please PM tepi.
10- Final words, message for the brides to be?
a) The more complicated your design, the more complicated recipe / flavour lah, props lah… all these will be included in the final $. We can try our best to meet your expectations, but we appreciate if you trust our skills too.
b) The cake will only turn out best, when its under 100% care and done by a relaxed baker. We know you’re anxious for the outcome, but calling / texting us 24/7 does not help. Its our masterpiece, for you and we would only present the best for your day.
c) Sometimes, its not always 3 full tiers of wedding cake. The base could be a dummy. Not that we trick you, but it can save you some $ too.
d) You may need to have your besties to recommend your cakes, or you could personally come down to your besties wedding to have a slice of her wedding cake, and get the contact cards left on the table.
e) The price difference between bakers depends a lot on their experience, expertise, the choice of ingredients used etc. The larger bakeries could have done it a little cheaper by 10-20% because they are baking cakes daily by the volumes, therefore they could have got their supplies in bulk. This could cut their cost price for each cake.
…and that concludes today’s entry!
