The Cookies


Baked in small batches and completely made from scratch, each cookie is then hand-decorated and topped with a sweet layer of royal icing. I will collaborate with you ​to bring your cookie vision to life and create the perfect customized treats for your next event. 

The Cakes
 

​All products are freshly baked to order, using only the most fine quality ingredients so we can guarantee that the final product will not only look beautiful but taste delicious too.

Cakes and cupcakes are baked in the week of/ a couple of days before your event to ensure moisture and freshness.​

The Ingredients


We use only the free-range eggs available,  highest quality butter and premium locally sourced ingredients in all our cookies and cakes. Desserts are baked fresh and custom order to ensure maximum freshness.

  • Custom Ordering Cookies & Cakes - How far in advance?
    Cookies: 3-4 weeks in advance is ideal when planning a custom order. I completely understand that last minute events do come up, and will try to do my best to cater for a rush order. Rush orders will incure a 15% increase to cater for labour. Feel free to contact me at any time to discuss your ideas and requirements. Please also allow 3-5 business days if postage is required within Australia. Cakes & Cupcakes: 3 weeks in advance is plenty of time. At this stage cakes and cupcakes can only be delivered or picked up in Melbourne only. Cupcakes will be made 1-2 days before event & should be consumed within 2 days.
  • What is the Minimum Order?
    Cookies All cookies are baked to order. I'm more than happy to create any shape/design within reason, with a minimum of order of 2 dozen. Cupcakes Cupcakes are made to order a day before the event - minimum of 24 regular cupcakes and 48 mini-cupcakes, which is the equvilant to one batch respectively.
  • Shelf Life - How long do your cookies & cakes last?
    Packaged Cookies We use all natural ingredients and cookies are individually packaged, sealed in food grade polypropylene bags. If the product is retained in its original bag and kept in a cool dry place, vanilla & gingerbread cookies will keep for up to 4-5months. Once the seal is broken and the bag opened, the long-life of the product is not guaranteed.​ Cupcakes & Cakes Cakes are prepared during the week of your event and should be eaten fresh as they don't contain preservatives. When stored correctly and refridgerated, cakes ideally should be consumed within 4-5 days. Cupcakes are made to order for the day before and should be eaten on the day of the event. (I doubt they'll last long enough to store away.)
  • I Have Food Allergies. Do your cookies / cakes cater to special dietary requirements?
    Cookies I'm still tinkering away at recipes to adapt for lactose/vegan dietary requirements and have not found a recipe that is suitable. My gingerbread may not be suited to people with food allergies as my kitchen is not wheat free. The gingerbread ingredients recipe requires the use of butter, wheat flour and some food colouring for the decorative fondant and royal icing. While our gingerbread doesn't contain nuts, some traces may be found, as nuts are used in producing other cookies in the kitchen. Cupcakes & Cakes I wont claim to be a expert on allergen-free baking, but will do my best to cater for you and your guests. If you have tried or know a recipe that you think is delicious and can meet a specific dietary need, please feel free to share it. Important bit - While every effort is made to ensure that there is no cross-contamination, we regret that we can make no guarantees about the safety of our products for those with food allergies. Please feel free to get in touch to ask questions.
