What is the pickup time for cake tastings on my selected Saturday?Cake tastings may be picked up on your pre-scheduled Saturday during our business hours of 10AM-6PM.
-
How many servings does a cake tasting feed? How are they served?Each tasting comes with 4-5 samples, depending on what cake tasting you select. Each sample is made up of two layers of cake, layered with filling, and each sample flavor serves 2-3 people. Each sample comes packaged in compostable containers with lids, and should be enjoyed within 48 hours of your "to-go" pickup.
-
I’m interested in a different flavor than what is offered in the cake tasting. What should I do?All of our cake samples offered in the tasting are our most popular flavor combinations. Although we love complex flavor profiles, it’s HBG style to offer classic flavor combinations.
-
We love chocolate cake. Does this mean our cake will be brown?Great question! No, not necessarily. Most of our cake designs are either white or have various colors on the outside the cake. This means the outside layer of buttercream will be vanilla, however the actual cake and cake filling can certainly be chocolate. If you’re OK with a brown cake, we’re more than happy to provide chocolate buttercream on the outside of the cake.
-
We are ordering a vegan cake, however we keep seeing the word “buttercream”. Help!In commerce and with baker lingo, you will occasionally see the word “buttercream” used for vegan goods. Please be advised this is a generic term (like icing, frosting, etc.) and rest assured, your desserts will be vegan (AKA butter-free).
