Burn Away Cakes

Use a lighter or BBQ lighter and hold it to the middle of the message on top of the cake. Once it catches fire, remove the flame and watch the magic happen!

✨ Pro tip: Make sure there’s a little space around the cake for a safe reveal and plenty of “oohs” and “aahs.”

We print the image or text you want revealed onto a piece of sugar paper and carefully layer it on top of your cake. A ring of buttercream is piped around the top edge, then the sugar sheet goes on, followed by another ring of buttercream.

✨ This clever layering keeps the bottom sheet safe, so when you ignite the top layer, your reveal is full of drama—and totally Instagram-worthy!

Yes! The reveal can be a message of your choice or an image that you upload. Upload anything your heart desires—pictures, logos, or designs—and we’ll make it happen.

✨ Heads up: the burn-away layer itself is always text, so your message takes centre stage.

The sky’s the limit! Choose your burn-away text, the reveal image, exterior buttercream colour, and chocolate ganache drip colour (even two colours if you want!). Our team will add sprinkles or other finishing touches to match your design perfectly.

✨ Every cake is handcrafted for maximum wow—so your celebration looks and tastes unforgettable.

Here’s how to keep your cake looking and tasting its best:

• If you are serving the cake on the day that you pick it up from the bakery, you can choose to refrigerate it or keep it out of direct sunlight in a cool area.
• If you choose to refrigerate your cake, please take it out 3+ hours before serving to ensure soft cake and creamy buttercream.

Cakes are best when enjoyed within 3 days after purchase. Store your cake by placing wax paper or plastic wrap on any exposed cake and place in the fridge.

*NOTE* We do not recommend freezing whole cakes. If you want to store leftover cake in the freezer, cut chilled cake into slices, then wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Place in a freezer bag or airtight container into the freezer. Allow slices to thaw in the fridge overnight before serving.

✨ Reminder: Macaron-topped cakes, edible florals, or intricate decor may have extra care tips—our team will let you know at pickup.
