the Cakery's f.a.q.
Can I stop by and pick up a cake or cupcakes?
Our shop specializes in stellar baked goods prepared to order. As such, we do not retain items for carry-out business. Please stop by the Cupcakery, our sister store, for carry-out cupcakes and cookies.

How much notice do you need for my order?
We recommend three weeks' notice for a cake and at least a week for cookies or cupcakes. Please keep in mind that we close orders when we reach capacity and our orders are ultimately first-come, first-serve. This is particularly true during holidays and wedding season.

Is your facility nut-free?
The Cakery is peanut-free; the Cupcakery is not. We do use almond derivatives in our buttercream and French vanilla cupcakes. We currently do not offer dairy-free or sugar-free options.

Where are you located?
The Cakery is situated in Historic Dogtown at 1420 Tamm Avenue, between Oakland and Manchester.

From Highway 40 — Exit Hampton South. Turn Right on West Park and Left on Tamm.

From Highway 44 — Exit Hampton North. Turn Left on West Park and Left on Tamm.

How should I store my cake/cupcakes/cookies?
Cakes — Store at room temperature until ready to serve. Freezing/refrigerating is not recommended for cakes unless you are picking up your cake more than three days before you plan to serve it. Uncut, your cake will maintain freshness for up to three days at room temperature.

Cupcakes — Store at room temperature if you are serving them the day they are picked up. If not, they can be frozen (preferable) for up to three days or refrigerated for one day. Take them out of freezer or refrigerator 3-6 hours before serving to allow them to come to room temperature.

Cookies — Store at room temperature if you are serving them the day they are picked up. If not, store in freezer and take out two to three hours before serving to allow them to come to room temperature.

Can I have my favorite cartoon character drawn on a cake?
Unfortunately, the Cakery does not possess the rights to any popular copyrighted figures. However, we would be more than happy to work with you to design a backdrop for pre-purchased figurines or to design a different concept using your theme.

Do you deliver?
We would be more than happy to deliver your wedding cake or other large order in the St. Louis area for a fee of fifty dollars. Deliveries outside of the city will be charged according to mileage. Availability is first-come, first-serve. Please call for more information.

Do you ship your products?
Unfortunately, we are currently unable to ship our products.
