FAQ
-
How far in advance should I book my cake?
For weddings, I recommend booking 6-12 months in advance. If your wedding is sooner than that, just send me an email to check my availability.
For celebration cakes, 2–4 weeks notice is ideal.
I may be able to take last minute orders depending on my schedule. -
Do you require a deposit?
Yes, celebration cakes require a non-refundable 20% booking fee to secure your date. The remaining balance is due one day before your event.
For weddings, a 30% booking fee is required to secure your date, with the remaining balance due three days before your wedding.
Busy times of year such as Christmas, Valentine’s and Communion’s may require a 50% deposit at the time of booking.
-
How much do your cakes cost?
Pricing depends on size, complexity, and design. Wedding cakes typically begin at €230, and celebration cakes start from €80.
I’ll provide a detailed quote once I know your design and serving requirements. We can work together to achieve a gorgeous cake within your budget. -
Do you deliver?
Yes, I deliver throughout Kerry, Cork, Clare, and surrounding areas. Delivery availability varies throughout the year, and fees vary based on distance (there and back).
-
What is your cancellation policy?
Booking fees are non-refundable. Orders cancelled with less than 14 days’ notice: 50% of the total order value is due.
Orders cancelled with less than 7 days’ notice: the full balance is payable. -
How should I store my cake?
Buttercream cakes should be stored in a cool room, away from sunlight and heat. If your event is a day or more away, refrigerate until approximately 2 hours prior to your event. Cake always tastes better at room temperature.
I’ll provide storage and care instructions with every order. -
Do you offer vegan, gluten free, or allergen friendly cakes?
I can offer some dietary-friendly options, but please note:
I operate from a domestic kitchen that handles common allergens, so I cannot guarantee allergen-free cakes. -
Can you recreate a cake I found on Pinterest/Instagram/AI?
I don’t copy other designers’ cakes, but I’m happy to use them as inspiration to create a unique Síog Cakes design just for you.
