Your First Anniversary

Changes & Your Wedding Day

Your wedding date is secured with a signed contract and a 25% non-refundable retainer. The remaining balance is due 30 days before your wedding.

How do I reserve my wedding date with Sugar Divas?

No. We do not have a minimum order requirement and are happy to explore options that work within your needs and budget whenever possible.

Do you have a minimum order for wedding cakes?

Yes! We offer both in-house and to-go wedding cake tastings. Choose from our standard tasting experience or request a custom tasting.

Do you offer wedding cake tastings?

You'll sample six of our popular cake flavors, including favorites such as Champagne Strawberry, Amaretto Raspberry, Vanilla and Chocolate, along with vanilla buttercream and a selection of fillings to mix and match. During your tasting, we'll also discuss your wedding vision, guest count, venue and design inspiration.

What's included in an in-house wedding cake tasting?

Please see our Tasting page for more information.

How much do wedding cake tastings cost?

You can schedule your tasting as early as you'd like. If you have a specific wedding date in mind, we recommend scheduling early so you'll have the best opportunity to reserve your date.

How far in advance should I schedule my wedding cake tasting?

Absolutely! We recommend keeping your group to 2–4 people for the best tasting and consultation experience.

Can family members or friends attend our wedding cake tasting?

Pricing depends on the size and complexity of your design, including details such as sugar flowers, hand-painted elements, textures and specialty finishes. Please see our Wedding pricing page for starting pricing.

How much do wedding cakes cost in Orlando?

Your final balance is due 30 days before your wedding, as outlined in your contract.

When is final payment for our wedding cake due?

Typically, yes. Your Sugar Divas quote will clearly outline what is included so you'll know the total cost before booking.

Are delivery and taxes included in our wedding cake quote?

Pinterest and inspiration photos are wonderful starting points! Rather than creating an exact copy, we use your inspiration to create a custom wedding cake that's uniquely yours. Photo ideas can ensure we are on the same page for all the design elements.

Can Sugar Divas recreate a wedding cake I found on Pinterest?

Yes! We can incorporate inspiration from your wedding colors, invitations, dress details, florals and other design elements. Because icing colors are mixed by hand, slight color variations may occur.

Can you match my wedding colors, invitations or dress details?

Absolutely. We can coordinate with your florist when fresh flowers are being incorporated into your cake. Fresh flowers must be provided by your florist, as we do not store fresh flowers at Sugar Divas. We are happy to place fresh flowers on your cake once delivered.

Can you coordinate with my wedding florist?

Yes! We specialize in handcrafted sugar flowers and can create incredibly realistic floral details as part of your custom wedding cake design.

Do you make sugar flowers for wedding cakes?

Absolutely! Each tier can have a different cake and filling combination.

Can each tier of our wedding cake be a different flavor?

Champagne Strawberry and Amaretto Raspberry are two of our most popular wedding cake flavor combinations. We offer a variety of additional cake and filling combinations to explore during your tasting.

What are your most popular wedding cake flavors?

Yes! In addition to custom wedding cakes, Sugar Divas offers cupcakes and other dessert options that can complement your wedding cake and celebration.

Do you offer cupcakes for weddings?

Yes! We can create a custom groom's cake to coordinate with your wedding weekend or reflect the groom's personality, interests or style.

Do you create groom's cakes?

We'll help you determine the appropriate cake size based on your guest count, serving needs and cake design. If your guest count changes after booking, we can usually adjust your servings with enough notice.

How much wedding cake do I need for my guest count?

Yes! A smaller display cake can be paired with a kitchen cake that's kept behind the scenes and served to guests. Kitchen cakes are one of the most cost-effective ways to add servings.

Can I order a smaller wedding cake with a kitchen cake for additional servings?

Not necessarily. Faux tiers are a great way to create the look of a larger statement cake while serving fewer guests, but they aren't always the most economical option. We'll help you determine whether faux tiers make sense for your design and serving needs.

Do faux wedding cake tiers save money?

Yes! Sugar Divas offers professional wedding cake delivery and setup throughout Orlando and surrounding areas. We can also travel outside the Orlando area depending on the location and availability.

Do you deliver and set up wedding cakes in Orlando and surrounding areas?

Delivery fees vary based on distance, venue location and setup requirements. Provide your venue address and we'll include the appropriate delivery fee in your quote.

How much does wedding cake delivery cost?

Yes. When we're providing delivery and setup, we'll make sure your wedding cake is assembled and picture-perfect before we leave, unless other arrangements have been made.

Will Sugar Divas set up our wedding cake at the venue?

Smaller wedding cakes may be picked up. For larger or multi-tier wedding cakes, we strongly recommend professional delivery.

Can we pick up our wedding cake instead of having it delivered?

Yes. When requested, we can coordinate delivery timing and cake details directly with your venue or wedding planner. We can also communicate directly with the couple if that's your preference.

Will you communicate directly with our wedding venue or planner?

Sugar Divas is responsible for your wedding cake until it has been safely delivered and set up at your venue. We prefer to deliver a couple of hours before the ceremony to allow some time in case there are any issues during delivery.

What happens if something goes wrong with the cake during delivery?

No. Our wedding cakes should be kept indoors in a cool, air-conditioned environment until serving. Refrigeration is not necessary.

Does my wedding cake need to be refrigerated?

Florida heat and humidity can affect both buttercream and fondant cakes. If you're planning an outdoor wedding, we'll help recommend an appropriate display timeline based on the conditions.

Can my wedding cake be displayed outside in Florida?

Yes. Gluten-free and vegan options are available for an additional charge.

Do you offer gluten-free or vegan wedding cakes?

Our kitchen handles dairy, eggs, wheat, soy, nuts and other allergens. While we take precautions, we cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment.

Can Sugar Divas accommodate food allergies?

Usually, yes. Guest count and smaller design changes can typically be accommodated with enough notice. Major design changes may affect pricing and are subject to availability.

Can we make changes to our wedding cake after booking?

Yes. Your venue or caterer will typically handle cake cutting, and we can provide serving information when needed.

Do you provide a wedding cake cutting guide?

No. Sugar Divas does not provide or rent cake stands or cake-cutting utensils.

Do you provide or rent wedding cake stands?

No. Sugar Divas cannot deliver directly to Disney-owned properties, parks or resorts. Please contact us if you'd like to discuss other options for your wedding cake.

Can Sugar Divas deliver wedding cakes to Disney properties?

Absolutely! We'll happily provide freezing instructions if you'd like to save your top tier. Or skip the freezing—Sugar Divas offers our wedding couples a complimentary fresh 6-inch buttercream cake for their first anniversary.

Can we save the top tier of our wedding cake for our first anniversary?

We recommend booking your wedding cake 6–12 months in advance, especially for popular spring and fall dates. However, we can often accommodate shorter timelines depending on availability, even last-minute weddings. Once you know your date, reach out and we'll let you know what's possible.

Do you offer cupcakes and other desserts for celebrations?

Yes! Delivery is available based on location. Include your delivery address on our contact form so we can provide an accurate delivery quote. Convenient curbside pickup is also an option during our open hours.

Do you deliver custom cakes in Orlando?

Keep your cake on a flat, level surface in a cool, air-conditioned vehicle. We do not recommend placing cakes on a car seat, as the angled surface can cause the cake to shift during transportation. Be very mindful of speedbumps, how sharply you drive around corners and how hard you hit the brakes.

How should I transport my custom cake?

Our buttercream is shelf-stable, so your decorated cake does not need to be refrigerated. Keep it indoors in a cool, air-conditioned environment and follow any specific care given at the time of pickup. We encourage no refrigeration because it can cause damage to some design elements on your cake.

Does my custom cake need to be refrigerated?

Florida heat and humidity can quickly affect decorated cakes. We recommend keeping your cake indoors in air conditioning for as long as possible and limiting the amount of time it is displayed outdoors.

Can my cake be displayed outside in Florida?

Yes. Gluten-free and vegan options are available for an additional charge.

Do you offer gluten-free or vegan custom cakes?

Our kitchen handles dairy, eggs, wheat, soy, nuts and other allergens. While we take precautions, Sugar Divas is not an allergen-free facility and cannot guarantee an allergen-free product.

Can Sugar Divas accommodate food allergies?

We ask that all changes be finalized at least one week before your order date. If you need to request a change with less notice, please call us and we'll do our best to accommodate it.

Can I make changes to my custom cake after ordering?

Cancellations: Orders cancelled 2+ weeks in advance may receive a full store credit, be postponed to a future date at no charge, or receive a refund less a 25% cancellation fee. Cancellations made within 1 week may be eligible for store credit or postponement at our discretion. Store credit never expires.
