Good to know
Wedding dessert catering FAQs
Do you replace the wedding cake or work alongside it?+
Both work. Many Brisbane couples now skip the tiered cake and let the dessert bar be the moment, while others keep a cutting cake and let us handle everything served to guests. We'll style around whatever you choose.
How much dessert do we need per guest?+
We allow 4–6 pieces per guest for a dessert bar following a plated meal, and 6–8 pieces where dessert replaces a course. Gelato is quoted per guest with unlimited service across a two-hour window.
Can you match our wedding colours exactly?+
Yes. Send us your invitation, swatch or florist's palette and we'll build the confectionery selection, jars, ribbon and signage around it. Blush, white and gold, sage, dusty blue and black-and-gold are all regulars.
What deposit do you require?+
A 30% deposit secures your date, with the balance due before your wedding day. Dates are only held once the deposit is received.
Do you cater weddings outside Brisbane?+
Regularly. We travel to Moreton Bay, Samford, the Mt Mee hinterland and the Sunshine Coast. Travel within 20km of Dayboro is included and anything further is quoted transparently.
