The collection
Eight starting points.
Each one can change shape, size, flavour and colour in the designer. Prices are for the size shown and include a standard board and box.
Sizes and servings
How many slices from each tier.
We count a party slice as 2.5 cm wide and 10 cm tall. Wedding slices are slimmer, so the same tier serves about a third more.
| Tier | Party servings | Price from | Usual place |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 inch | 6 slices | ₦28,000 | Top tier only |
| 6 inch | 12 slices | ₦45,000 | Base or middle tier |
| 8 inch | 24 slices | ₦72,000 | Base or middle tier |
| 10 inch | 40 slices | ₦105,000 | Base or middle tier |
| 12 inch | 60 slices | ₦145,000 | Base or middle tier |
| 14 inch | 84 slices | ₦190,000 | Base or middle tier |
Example rates for this demo. Fondant, sugar flowers and toppers are priced in the designer.
Flavours
Ten flavours, mixed tier by tier.
Our sponges are baked with free range eggs from a farm near Epe and flour milled in Ibadan. Every tier can be a different flavour.
Zobo velvet
Hibiscus brewed like zobo, folded into a soft red sponge with cream cheese frosting.
Chapman sponge
Citrus, cucumber and a bitters style syrup. Alcohol free and loved by teenagers.
Tigernut and date
Naturally sweet and nutty, with a date caramel filling. Dairy free on request.
Vanilla bean and cream
The one grandmothers ask for. Madagascan style vanilla and whipped cream.
Dark chocolate ganache
Three layers of cocoa sponge, ganache and a pinch of sea salt.
Agbalumo curd
Star apple curd between vanilla layers, from December to March only.
Made to order
Why we ask for five days.
Day one is your sketch and flavour notes. Day two we shop at the market for fruit and flowers. Day three the sponges are baked and soaked. Day four the cake is filled, crumb coated and chilled overnight. Day five it is finished by hand and delivered.
When we rush, the buttercream does not set properly in Lagos humidity, so we would rather say no than send you a cake that leans.
Read our heat and power cut guideQuestions about cakes
Before you order.
Can I change a cake from the collection?
Yes. Everything changes in the designer: shape, size, colour, flavour and decoration. The price updates as you go.
Do you make eggless or dairy free cakes?
We make eggless vanilla, chocolate and tigernut sponges, and a dairy free buttercream. Our kitchen handles nuts, gluten, dairy and eggs, so we cannot promise a cake free of traces.
How do I pay?
A 50 percent deposit holds your date, through Receivly by card or bank transfer. The balance is due two days before delivery. POS is available in the tea room.
Can you deliver to the Mainland?
Yes, in our chilled van, leaving by 6am to beat the bridge traffic. Mainland delivery is ₦22,000.
Ready to sketch yours?
Most people finish the designer in about four minutes.
