However you imagine it

Every wedding cake is custom, and each starts with a signature flavor and filling included per tier. Three directions our couples love:

Four-tier white buttercream wedding cake with roses

The Classic

Smooth buttercream, clean tiers, and timeless elegance that never goes out of style.

 Three-tier white wedding cake with blush and burgundy florals

The Romantic

Soft texture with fresh or sugar flowers, straight out of your Pinterest board.

 Boho three-tier wedding cake with dried florals

Rustic & Boho

Organic texture, dried florals, and natural detail for a relaxed, earthy celebration.
A variety of custom Sweet Escape tiered cakes

The Sweet Escape difference

19 flavors. 9 fillings. All included.

Most bakeries charge extra to step outside vanilla and chocolate. We include 19 cake flavors and 9 house-made buttercream fillings at our base price, more than any other bakery in town. Our couples' favorite? Butter Pecan with Creamy Caramel.

Wedding cake questions

How much do your wedding cakes cost?
Every cake is individually priced around three things: size, flavors and fillings, and the detail of the design. Tiered cakes start at $7.00 per serving with one signature flavor and one filling included per tier. As reference points, a 3-tier cake (about 74 servings) starts at $518 and a 4-tier (about 130 servings) starts at $910.
How far in advance should we book, and how do we hold our date?
We're a small, family-owned bakery and take a limited number of weddings each week, so more than 95% of our dates fill. We recommend reserving 5 to 9 months out, since most weekend dates go early. A $100 deposit holds your date, and the balance is due one month before the wedding.
What happens at a tasting?
Tastings are $30 and last about 50 minutes. You and up to two guests taste 3 flavors and 3 fillings in any combination, then sit down with a cake artist to design your cake and leave with a price quote. Book a $500 or larger order the same day and the $30 comes right off your deposit. ($5 per extra guest, up to 6.)
Do you deliver and set up?
Yes. We deliver and set up wedding cakes and desserts across Central Indiana for orders of $350 or more, including Indianapolis, Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, Zionsville, Greenwood, Avon, Brownsburg, Plainfield, Franklin, Greenfield, Anderson, Danville, and Martinsville. Delivery is quoted by day and distance, starting at $60 on Fridays and Saturdays and $125 on Sundays and holiday weekends.
Can you accommodate dietary needs?
We offer a limited menu of gluten-free or vegan options (not both in the same cake). We do our best with food allergies, but we work with 6 of the top 8 allergens in our kitchen and cannot guarantee against cross-contamination. We also make cupcakes, cake balls, cookies, and brownies.
Can we pick the cake up ourselves?
Yes. In many cases you (or a friend or family member) can transport the cake. We assemble it, box it on a sturdy board, and hand it off ready to go. You'll want a flat surface in the vehicle, a careful driver, and the AC on.
Do you provide cake stands?
We keep a limited number of stands available to rent. Just ask at your consultation and we'll show you what's available.
Is there really a free anniversary cake?
There is. If your top tier is served at the wedding, we'll bake you a complimentary 6-inch cake for your first anniversary. Just reach out about two weeks ahead to arrange pickup and flavor.
