Place your order early to ensure our availability. Confectioner's Studio only accepts wedding cakes on a limited basis. This is because we believe that you deserve our focus and attention to detail. We book far in advance, and have been known to have reservations a year in advance. Typically, summer wedding slots book several months in advance. For your special occasion cake—birthday, showers, etc., please allow two weeks, but call for availability on short notice.
