TIME SCALE FOR PLACING ORDERS
We prefer 6 months notice to guarantee your wedding cake order. Any wedding cakes required sooner please email or phone to confirm availability. Orders that contain fruit cake must be ordered and the £100 deposit paid a minimum of 4 month before the required date. This is because fruit cake takes 3 – 4 months to make and properly mature.
All celebration cakes are preferably ordered with 2 – 3 weeks in advance. Orders under £100 are asked to be paid in full when booked and for order over we ask for a £100 deposit and full payment 7 days prior to the required date. Last minute orders within 7 days prior to your event will incur a late fee.
Cupcake orders can be placed up to 3 days prior to your event.

Wedding Cake: A non-refundable £100 deposit is required to reserve your wedding cake order and the remainder of the balance due a minimum of 1 month prior to your wedding. If the Wedding cake is canceled with less than 1 month notice the remaining balance must still be paid in full.
All other cake orders under £100 must be paid in full at time of order.
Celebration Cakes: We ask for a 50% deposit and the remaining balance to be paid on collection.

DO WE DELIVER?
Delivery is available throughout the UK. To guarantee the quality of our products we do not use a courier service for orders within the UK, we personally deliver our cakes ourselves.
Local Edinburgh delivery is charged at £7 and delivery fees outside Edinburgh are calculated by distance travelled and are roughly 52p per mile.
While it is generally not a problem for clients to transport smaller cakes, self-transporting any cake is at your own risk. Licks Cake Design does not recommend clients self-transport 3D/sculptural cakes, cakes over 2 tiers tall or any cake for more than 1 hour. We do not responsible for any damage that may occur to any client-transported cake once it has left our store.

GENERAL CAKE INFORMATION
We offer a wide range of delicious flavours. This can be found in the cake gallery. All types of sponges contain a layer of fresh buttercream.
To ensure our cakes also remain moist we also add a thin layer of white almond marzipan designed for sponges. (For any customer preferring no marzipan we can offer double icing instead to ensure your cake remains moist and at a high quality).
