Right here on this very website. We have a simple, but delicious menu of cakes & cupcakes which can be found here. If you're looking for something custom, I am always happy to discuss commissions.

For now Friend Cakes operates on a 7 day notice period. It is possible with some magic that we could rush a cake delivery, but please enquire directly.
-
Your cake or cupcake(s) will be baked, assembled, decorated & placed onto a cake plate and into one of our cake boxes. From there we can offer delivery in the local Austin area for a fee or you're welcome to schedule a pick up with us by emailing us
-
Keep you cake or cupcake(s) in the box which we delivered it to you and make sure to store in your refrigerator, taking out of the fridge just 1-2 hours before you plan to serve the cake. You will also want to make sure you have space for the box in your fridge before receiving your delivery.

I guess that all depends how many friends you have ;) As a best practice, you should plan to consume your cake within 1-3 days of it being delivered to you. In my opinion these cakes almost always taste better 2-3 days after they are made, which is delivery day or the day after. I've eaten cake well after the week it was baked, but as with anything in life, use your best judgment- especially when it comes to food safety. If something looks funky or smells off, be wary. We'll always delivery a fresh cake that is ready to be enjoyed by all.

The flowers sitting atop your friend cake are food safe, but I do not recommend that you eat them. They are a mix of stems either grown in my back yard or sourced from a local flower grower in Texas. Just because one can never be too safe, I recommend that you remove the flowers before eating. They also taste bitter and aren’t the best when paired with a sweet cake.

I'm a one-woman show as of current and aspiring to turn Friend Cakes into a small business loved by all of Austin. I can't alway promise these cakes will deliver you to happiness, but they certainly help! If for some reason you're not happy with your cake- let's talk! Any and all feedback is appreciated so that I can make Friend Cakes the best cakes out there.
