Transport tips

If you plan to pickup, or will be relocating your cake to a new venue after delivery, here are some helpful tips:

• Use an enclosed,air-conditioned vehicle with a flat/level surface to set the cake on (seats and laps are not level!). A minivan, SUV, station wagon or hatch back are best.

• CLEAR the vehicle of loose objects that could fall onto or roll into the cake.

• Keep the cake as cold as possible during transport, and away from sunlight.

• Drive carefully. Turns, stops and starts should be performed in an EXAGGERATEDLY SLOW manner.

• Avoid bumps, jiggling, hills, and use a very slow speed on curves.

• If it helps, visualise that you are driving with an open bucket of expensive red wine, and you must

• NOT spill it! Other drivers may give you the evil eye... that is okay; they can go around you!

• Always lift the cake by the base of the box (not the sides). Cakes are surprisingly heavy and if the bottom of the box is unsupported it may fall through.

Tiered cakes are extremely fragile and we STRONGLY recommend paying for delivery.
