Thank you for your interest in Sweet Ride Bakeshop!
After eight wonderful years in business,
we have decided to close the doors and begin a new chapter.
We would love to help by referring you to other talented bakers in the area.
Please see our recommendations list here on our contact page!
THE PROCESS
DESIGN
Please share as much you can! No detail or story is too small or insignificant.
You deserve a wedding cake or dessert bar that reflects you as a couple, and to coordinate with the atmosphere you're creating for your guests.
Non-traditional dessert ideas (i.e. cinnamon roll cakes and waffle cakes,
see portfolio) are welcomed and encouraged! Some ideas to share are color swatches, Pinterest/mood boards, florals, venue photos, your wedding dress, etc.
From here, Shannah will create a customized proposal for you.
CAKE TASTING
Cake tastings are optional when placing a wedding cake order,
but if you choose to have one, you will receive a box of eight signature wedding cake flavors to enjoy and contemplate at your leisure.
Cake tasting boxes are available for
scheduled pick-up once per month in the Lakewood/Belmar area.
Each box is $50 and shareable for two people.
If desired, an in-person design consultation can be booked separately.
Please inquire here.
PRICING
Buttercream cakes start at $8 per slice and fondant cakes start at $9 per slice
(wedding cake slices are four layers of cake with buttercream and/or filling in between and are the traditional wedding cut as 1" x 2" x 4.5-5").
Cakes are priced by the slice and number of guests you're looking to serve.
The recommended number of dessert bar items
varies from one to three items per guest,
at an average cost of $5 per guest.
The final price is dependent upon the design elements, quantities,
dessert trays/cake stand rentals (optional), and venue location for delivery.
Individual packaging for dessert bar items
is available upon request for an additional fee.
If you are ready to schedule a cake tasting or
receive more information about your wedding, please inquire here.
BOOKING
The minimum requirement for peak wedding season
(May-October) is three months prior to your event.
Due to the attention to detail, ensuring quality, and attentiveness to clients,
Shannah takes on a limited number of orders during peak season.
A $200 non-refundable retainer of the total cost
is required to secure your date.
PRE-WEDDING
Once the proposal has been finalized, you can sit back and relax.
One week before your wedding date,
Shannah will reach out one last time before the big day.
POST-WEDDING
Yay! You're married! If your wedding order was more than $750, you will have received (at the time of delivery) a complimentary, specially packaged sweetheart cake for you to take home and save for your first anniversary.
For wedding orders below $750, an anniversary cake may be purchased separately.
