Tiered Cakes for Big Moments
Making your big days even bigger. From clean, minimalist designs for intimate engagements to detailed milestone cakes, I create tiered masterpieces that actually taste as good as they look.

About Tiered Cakes for Big Moments 🥂
Since tiered cakes rely on structural integrity, I use a custom internal doweling system in every design. This ensures your cake stays perfectly stacked during transit across Mumbai, so you don't have to stress about a thing when the dessert table is revealed.
Planning a two-tier cake isn't just about size; it's about balance and proportion. I usually work with a two-tier setup—typically a 6-inch base with a 4-inch top—which serves about 20 to 30 people. This gives you that grand, centerpiece look while ensuring everyone gets a generous slice without sacrificing the aesthetic.
The Process
I treat every cake like a blank canvas. We start with your choice of flavor—my classic vanilla or rich Belgian chocolate—and move to the styling. Whether you want that ‘old money’ minimalist look with sharp, razor-thin buttercream edges or something more artistic with textured palette-knife florals, I match the design to your specific event vibe.
Customization & Details
Every tiered cake includes:
- Structural support: Heavy-duty internal doweling so the tiers stay put.
- Toppers: Your choice of a custom fondant figurine (like a teddy bear) or a sleek, personalized acrylic topper.
- Finishes: From stencil work and fondant clouds to gold leaf accents, we define the look together based on your mood board.
Because of the engineering required for these designs, I need at least a one-week lead time for tiered orders. This allows me to properly structure the tiers and hand-craft any specific figurines or accents you’ve requested.
