Vegood wedding cakes
The honour of making a wedding cake is like no other, and so we have dedicated this page to outline our process.
Each wedding is unique and so must be the cake. Perfect for you for your special day - be it dark and moody, modern gold and blush tones, fun and vibrant, quirky and colourful, lambeth or vintage, traditional white, hearts, round, square, single, or cakes as tall as you - each made with whimsy and limited only by your imagination.

Cake sizes explained
Not sure how much cake you need for the guests at your wedding? Don't stress - thats our job to work out the best tier combination and sizes for you. The industry standard wedding cake slice is 2" x 1" of 2 layers of cake (usually 4" tall).
Below you will see a cutting guide that is used to portion up a cake of standard height (4 inches - 2 layers). We can also add cake layers to each tier from 2 to 4 up to 6 (known as an extended height 6-8" or double barrel 8-10") for extra modern tall cakes to feed a larger number of guests.
Vegood cake flavours
Not only does your wedding cake need to look like everything you ever dreamt of, but it also needs to taste perfect too.
Part of the consultation process when booking your wedding cake is the taste test box. The way they work is you choose 2-3 cake flavours, 2-3 fillings, 1-2 buttercream flavours and we will put it all together for you, with some additional matching flavours to consider. Upon booking your wedding cake with me, these boxes are free as part of the overall package. On their own, the tasting boxes are $50 for me to put together.
You then organise a time to pick up, take it home and share with your partner, at your leisure, tasting this cake with that filling and that filling with this buttercream etc until you decide what is the perfect flavour combination for you!
Vegood wedding cake prices
Each wedding is unique in so many ways. Not just the colours of your decorations or the size of the guest list, but also the vibe of the design, the florals chosen and even the distance traveled to set up your cake to be perfectly photo ready.
As a result, it's almost impossible to give wedding cake prices without going through at least a basic design guide. But to give you an idea - a small simple elopement cake to feed 25 people (6' extended height) would start at $165. A single tier 8" extended height cake to feed 50 people in a traditional white rustic or semi naked finish would be around $265. A two tier cake (8" and 6" extended height) to feed 80 people in a traditional white rustic or semi naked finish would be around $350. More elaborate designs (such as floating tiers or fondant cakes) start at $450.
I also make donut towers that start from $95 for a small elopement. Dessert buffets / towers / high tea style which include a selection of desserts such as donuts, cannoli, cupcakes, cookies, mini cakes, tarts, etc. - these are POA. Custom cookies (with edible images that can customise a message or quote or photo or place or something personal and special to you both - these average at $3 each). Cupcake towers (themed for you or with edible images - these average at $3 each). Small "cut cakes" to go with the donuts, cupcakes, cookie towers and dessert buffets. We also offer kitchen cakes as part of our service as well - please ask for more information on this.
Please note, this is a guide only and your cake quote may indeed be less than you think, or may include more expensive items to will increase the quoted price. Part of my job is, however, to find you a design idea that you love that is within your ideal budget. So - lets chat!

Some Vegood cakes
Making a novelty cake is a truly an amazing experience for a cake maker and has to be my favourite time in the kitchen. It all starts usually with an idea, colour, hobby, theme, shape, or pictures involved, and from there we let our imagination run wild and create a truly one of a kind cake. Usually there is a mixture of buttercream, fondant, handmade toppers, edible prints etc. that go into these special novelty cakes. These cakes really make memories and birthdays and events just that little bit more special. Customised to suit your serve sizes and budget. Pictured above are a few of my favourites. Price on application.
