Picked up cakes
Please note that many of the cakes are difficult to be transported and may be damaged if not properly driven or carried. We would not be responsible for any cake picked up from our store in proper condition and damaged after that.
Please make sure to check your cake and pick it up only if it is is in proper condition upon pick up.
Cakes
• Most novelty and shape cakes feed 25-30. We do not offer exact dimensions as each cake is hand crafted in freehand. Our cakes look big and carry a great impact. We have never had a customer complaint with regard to cake portions.
Please note that heads of 3 D shape cakes and some other decorations on the cakes usually are made from cereals mixed with cream or from styrofoam decorated with sugar paste, and the actual cake that you should cut and eat is the body. Also keep in mind that there are wooden or plastic dowel rods ( wooden sticks) inside the cake which are meant to support the cake. Those wooden sticks are specificly made to be used in food products and without them the cake can not be done.
In the cakes made with more than 1 tier we also use wooden or plastic sticks and plates to support the cake. Those sticks and plates are also made to be used in foods and can not cause any harm provided that they are removed when cutting the cake.
Keep this in mind and once you cut the cake remove all wooden and plastic parts to avoid any problems especially for the children.
When sugar flowers are used in the cake - they have metal wires supporting them - which are not edible, but also produced to be used in the cake decorating.
Very often we use also tooth picks to support sugar figures. Beware for children please.
• We do not make smaller size novelty cakes.
Cake Storage and Shelf Life
• We recommend you order your cake for the same day it will be cut.
• If the cake is for next day it must be kept in the fridge overnight.
• Sponge cake will keep for 24 hours after being cut and kept in the fridge.
Edible Images and Sugar Models
• Edible images can be put on almost any cake. We can scan and print any photograph or image. When ever an image is scanned and printed the quality deteriorates so make sure you give us the best quality pictures you can.
• If you wish to supply a digital picture, please send it by email to sales@houseofcakesdubai.com
Orders
• We require 3-4 working days notice (Occasionally 1) on all cakes ordered. One week for wedding cakes. Skilled cake decorators are rare and valuable crafts people. Occasionally we may not have the resources to meet demand. Please order as early as you can.
• Please check your order thoroughly before payment.
- For bespoke cakes, our decorators can only create the finished article from what they interpret from the wording of your order. It is not possible to create exact specifications when modeling food, just a graphical representation.
• If an inscription color or any other choice is left un-selected on your order then we reserve the right to use our own discretion.
Payment
• We require full payment in advance by card online or by bank transfer.
Delivery
• All cakes are delivered boxed.
• We only deliver within Dubai, Sharjah & Ajman, occasionally we deliver to Abu Dhabi and Al Ain.
• Delivering in Dubai is very unpredictable due to congestion. Please order your cake few hours before you need it to assure you have the cake on time.
