Ever thought about that? Often forgotten but imperatively important is the cake stand. How many times have we had desperate mothers and mothers in law call us when the bride was about to be dressed and the cake was to be picked up or delivered and the mothers figured: But what do we put the cake on? And we had our share of calls we made when we were about to take off on deliveries just to make sure checking, if a cake stand was available. And amazingly many times this is a question that is truly unexpected. So rest assured at Fantasy Cakes we offer a variety of cake stands that are available to rent. You can chose the right stand with the cake at our shop. We charge a deposit for the stand that is partially refunded at time of return.

Now, it seems we captured the main items for your cake planning.
Cake Stands


Now, we obviously need to know how many servings you will need.

Generally speaking we think of each guest one slice. Some other wedding specialists go as far as recommend to have a surplus of about 30% so if you expect 100 guests they recommend to make 130 slices available.

To make sure you know you place your order with the right partner when opting for Fantasy Cakes our decorators have their picture books for you as well as you can review our previous creations in our online gallery. We want your Wedding Cake arrangement as well as the Groom’s Cake to appear grandiose and spectacularly large but help you so it does not really necessarily cost the world.

So the choice is yours to opt for a cake size that enables you to send slices home with your guest

Of course the taste is important. Who would want guests to think of the cake’s appearance to be all wonderful but when the fork hits the lips the guests quickly start looking for a place to discard their plates rather inconspicuously? What better compliment for your competence of a choice of cake than if guests come back for second servings to the cake table or even want to take some home.

Is taste really this imperative?


Well, THE most important picture that will be taken after the ceremony is the cake cutting. When your husband and you take the knife to the cake you would want the cake to slice smoothly and pull out the slide without problem. It’s that moment captured for eternity. The newly wed’s cutting the cake. That is the moment where your face should show relaxed features and not be all contorted in efforts when you try to pull out a single slice while the entire tier is about to come off the cake. Our cakes are smooth in texture and the icing is firm but cuts easily. One advise we can give from experience: Make sure your knife is sharp and the blade long enough when you cut the cake for your picture.
And why is texture important for my Wedding or Groom’s Cake
 

The most common is a chocolate cake as Groom’s Cake and a white or mixed cake for the Wedding Cake. Of course the choice is yours to go for extravagance when it comes to the cakes. We can do one flavor per tier. So if you wish to go with white for the base layer and opt for different flavors as you go upwards, feel free. There are few limits we set and we most certainly do provide fillings as well.

Ok, we detailed the basics what we think in our experience is important when it comes to Wedding Cakes. What remains now is to see what information do we need to clarify with a bride to be?

Firstly, we of course would like to meet you in person to discuss your requirements.

For over 15 years we accompanied brides from the day of their decision to the actual setting up the cake tables. We offer complimentary samples on your free consultation on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

To set up a consultation session you can call us on (512) 828 6781 or email us on weddingcakes@fantasycakesroundrock.com

Unrivaled taste and beautiful designs have gained us a reputation as delicious and truly artistic.

So rest assured we truly want you to feel comfortable that your budget is well spent for your choice as Fantasy Cakes for your Wedding and Groom’s Cake. The size of our team requires it that you set up an appointment as early in advance as possible. We will try to accommodate your schedule but generally have Tuesday and Wednesday set aside for consultations. Do go ahead and contact us, we are confident we can find an arrangement. After all, we want to make this as smooth as possible and see that we give you the peace of mind that the Wedding Cake and the Groom’s Cake are taken care of.
Moving right along:


We deliver your cake for the applicable surcharge. A tiered cake is not to be underestimated in terms of transport requirements and skills. Wedding Cakes are usually tiered cakes. If not delivered you would have to pick up the whole assembled cake and during transport and the normal movements occurring while a car is driving the layers can slide off and the cake be ruined. So the safest decision a bride can make is to have the cake delivered and set up. Our team transports the layers separately or assembled, whatever we feel is feasible. We then set up the cakes on the cake table so your Wedding Cake and the Groom’s Cake are truly composed in line with the remaining setting of your venue. Of course you are welcome to pick up your cake and set it up yourself. In such cases we cannot guarantee the look to be as excellent as it would be when we deliver.
Why is delivery and set up important?
Congratulations from the Fantasy Cakes team on your upcoming wedding.

We safely assume you do this the first time. Well, we do it all the time so why not benefit from our experience:

What is important when ordering your Wedding cake other of course than the price?
1) Appearance
2) Textures
3) Taste
4) Delivery
5) Set up


Any bride wants to be the centre of attention on her special day. But every bride also wants her guests to marvel over the bride’s competence to choose the right suppliers and partners for her special day. From catering, set up and all the other things that compose the wedding day to be truly unique, from the event venue to the actual pictures and the food the guests will be looking at the cake as the second most important item of this day. Bride, Wedding cake, food… guests will be interested to see the bride, her Wedding Cake and taste the food. So of course looking grandiose and remarkable is important. After all, the Wedding Cake and food is considered a direct reflection of the bride and Groom’s preference in look and taste.
