What flavours do you offer? A list of our signatures cake flavours is on the site but if you want something not on the list just ask and we can probably make it.
Can I have different flavoured cakes on each tier? Yes, you can have different flavours for each tier but be sure to consider how the flavours will be served to your guests
What type of icing can we have? The usual icings are fondant (not to be confused with almond flavoured marzipan), chocolate ganache or buttercream. Fondant is the customary icing for wedding cakes and custom-designed special occasion cakes as it gives a smooth flawless finish and is great for detailed work.
Are there any limitations to what cake flavours and/or fillings can be used for decorated cakes? Unfortunately yes. Wedding cakes are generally on display for quite some time so this will affect what can be used, ie. no cream or cream cheese based fillings or anything that would require refrigeration. Also fondant icing and handmade sugar decorations cannot be refrigerated so therefore cannot be used on a cake that needs refrigeration.
Do you deliver cakes? We provide free delivery and set-up of Wedding Cakes for venues in the northern and middle Sunshine Coast. We can deliver outside those areas but fees may apply.
Delivery of all other cakes and desserts to most areas of the Sunshine Coast can be provided for the following prices: – Coolum Area: $16 – Maroochy & Kawana Areas: $30 – Caloundra, Montville & Maleny Areas: $40 If you hire a cupcake stand that requires delivering and collection additional fees will apply.
How much will I expect to pay for a wedding cake? Wedding cakes vary considerably in price. Biggest cost drivers are size and detailed decorations. If you are on a tight budget consider a cake with very little decoration. A free quote and proposal will be provided after discussing your desires, and alterations can always be made to achieve a lower cost.
I’m not sure what I want, can you design something for me? At Sugar Dreams we love the opportunity to have artistic license to create original cake designs, or we can work on a design together. Details to consider when designing a cake include: the individual for whom it is intended; their hobbies and traits; the theme of the occasion and the statement you are trying to make. More particular details to consider for designing wedding cakes include; colours of the bride and bridesmaid’s fabric and any flowers that you intend to use.
Do you hire cupcake stands? Yes, stands can be hired on a first come, first served basis on the following terms: – Fees from $15-$30 plus a $100 refundable bond for a 5 day period. – If stands are not returned, or are returned broken, chipped or changed in an way (including do-it-yourself repairs) the $100 bond will be charged in full. – Stands hired for weekend events must be returned by 5pm the following Wednesday or a $20/day late fee will be charged. – Stands agreed to be collected by Sugare Dreams will be charged a feww for the relevant delivery area.
