Frequently Asked questions

That is a great question, the sooner you inquire about your event or wedding cakes, the sooner I can price things for you!

This is the most frequently asked of all the bakery questions...

The cost of an item is directly reflected in the amount of detail required, 

so each cake is price accordingly.

Cakes are priced by the serving starting at: Naked Cake or Buttercream-8.5 Fondant-11 

Carved and 3D cakes start at 20 per serving and go up depending on level of detail.  

Dessert Bar Items Start at 2/ea or 3/ea minimum 2 dz. 

The cost is the same no matter what type of event cake, and Kadi Bakes delivers often to Williamsburg, Providence Forge, New Kent, and Richmond.

Kadi Bakes is licensed, insured, inspected, and based out of a private kitchen in Williamsburg, Virginia offering delivery and service to Providence Forge, New Kent, Richmond, and surrounding areas. Custom tastings and consults are available by appointment only for wedding cakes.  I love my clients, and love creating cakes for you and answering your bakery questions. I do not operate a public bakery so that I can focus on your order! Let's meet for a tasting soon.

Yes! Delivery and set up is available for your special day. Although Kadi Bakes is based in Williamsburg, Kadi will absolutely travel to your venue to make sure your cake and sweets arrive safely and are set up beautifully! She regularly delivers within 100 miles, and can travel farther.

Absolutely, and we recommend it. A cake stand for your one of a kind cake is available for rent, and rental of multiple stands are also an option for dessert bars! Stands are offered in silvers, golds, wood, and some neutral colors. The weight of tiered cakes needs to be considered if you wish to use your own stand.

Yes. Dietary needs Items are made often! Kadi has years of experience creating dietary needs items.

Kadi Bakes is NOT a certified nut free/gluten free/vegan kitchen, but we take every precaution possible to ensure the safety of your guests. 

Nope! And for a very good reason.  Kadi Bakes holds your needs, wants, allergies, and client safety in the highest regard possible.  No one else besides Kadi handles, bakes, or designs your cake.  This is an extremely rare level of care and as such, to ensure that quality control, assumption of origin, and liability to Kadi Bakes high standards, Kadi simply cannot offer goods and services in conjunction with other items she may offer herself.  This means you can't order your fresh wedding cake from Kadi and order prefrozen, tub frosting, mass produced cakes elsewhere.. but why would you want to? :) Your guests deserve fresh cake too!

Special considerations are taken on a case by case basis with a licensed vendor who will only provide items Kadi Bakes does not. We can absolutely discuss this when we chat! Thanks

I make any cake you can think of! I know many of the cakes you see are wedding cakes.. Kadi Bakes does a lot of weddings.. but that is absolutely not all that we make! I am happy to make your birthday, event, or specialty cakes and desserts! 

The number of orders taken per day is dependent on the season and level of complexity each order entails. For an additional investment you can reserve Kadi Bakes for your entire event day to ensure you are the only delivery.

A long time ago a little girl with a whisk baked any time her mama let her.... 

One day she got a job in a kitchen and everyone else hated making pastries, so she honed her craft and never stopped.After 8 years of baking professionally for other businesses, she started her own.. and here we are.

Kadi Bakes was established in 2011.

One flavor and filling per tier of cake is allowed, and a max of three to five cake flavors+fillings for parties of 100+ is recommended.

It is highly recommended that you order 1.5-2 times the amount of guests for wedding cake servings, as they are tall petite servings, and 2-3 times the amount of guests for dessert bars as most guests will take a cookie, brownie, dessert shooter etc.

A dessert bar is a collection of items from 3-5+ varieties of desserts for your guests to enjoy. It has quickly become an favorite and one of the most frequent choices of couples who want more than just cake, and can be a lot more fun and interactive for your guests than a cupcake bar is!

I ask that you inquire so that your information gets input into my system and I can keep track of our communications. 

If you are a wedding client, we will schedule a call and tasting, if you are an event client I will get you general pricing via email and proceed with invoicing. 

After talking on the phone about your wedding, I will put together a proposal of recommended services and items for your big day. We will review this at your tasting!

Once you approve it (revisions can be made as needed) you will sign our agreement and pay a 50% non refundable retainer fee to reserve your day.  The remainder is due 30 days prior to your wedding/event. 

Kadi Bakes can't wait to create for you!
