Custom cakes are created around your event rather than pulled from a shelf. Reaching out early gives us time to shape the flavor, design, and practical details into one clear plan.
Earlier is always more flexible
For most birthdays, showers, and anniversaries, begin the conversation several weeks before the event. Larger orders, intricate sugar work, and dessert-table pairings benefit from additional lead time.
Availability changes throughout the year, so a date is not reserved until the ordering process is complete.
Bring the details you already know
Your event date, approximate guest count, venue or pickup plan, and a general sense of style are enough to begin. Inspiration images can be useful, but they do not need to define the final design.
Sharing your budget range early also helps shape recommendations that are realistic for the celebration.
Leave room for a creative solution
You may arrive with a clear vision or only a favorite color and flavor. Both are excellent starting points. The design process is a collaboration that translates the feeling of your event into an original Sweet10 creation.
