When a cancelation is made with the proper notice, we are able to accommodate another customer’s order to fill the open spot. However, when a last-minute cancellation is made, we are not able to make up for the lost sale, thus the cancellation fee.

If your cake is for less than 48 hours’ notice, please call the store to confirm that it can be done given the time restriction.
