This page contains information on how to order, cake flavours and deliveries.
Hi, thanks for visiting my website. My name is Andrea Ayling and I’m a Brisbane custom cake designer who loves creating beautiful sugar paste flowers, unique decorations and designing exciting new birthday cakes, special occasion cakes, and beautiful cakes for the important times in your life.
All my cake designs are original. I love working with colour, getting inspired by the colour combinations I see around me every day, and that my passion is my job!
When it comes to designing and creating cakes I am really proud of the attention to detail I give every order. You can be sure that all my cakes go out with the same attention to detail as you see here on my website.
You can read comments from many of my clients here.
All my designs are original, hand crafted with care and are fully protected by copyright. Because I focus on my own style of cake designs I do not take orders to reproduce copies of other designer’s work, or for character cakes.
Custom-made designer cake prices start at $275
Please note: If you’re looking for a simple everyday cake like you would see in a local cake shop, unfortunately I cannot help you.

Deliveries:
Due to the coronavirus situation I have adopted ‘social distancing’ procedures when making cake deliveries. Please note:
- Cake delivery to homes is still available.
- When delivering cakes I will send a text message to your mobile when I am nearing your premises.
- I will leave the cake (in a proper cake box) at your front door, and knock on your door, or text again, to confirm I have left the cake.
- You may then come out to say hello and I can explain care instructions while we maintain a 2 metre distance between us.
- Enjoy the cake!
Pickups:
For pickups from my studio at Shailer Park I will let you know the procedure when you are ordering your cake. We’ll still get to have a chat when you arrive, and I’ll have the cake ready, in a cake box, on a table outside for easy access.
Compliant with coronavirus legislation:
Deliveries and pickups meet the criteria within Queensland Health Non-essential Business, Activity and Undertaking Closure Direction (No. 4) for retail food services.
Cake design studio:
I would also like to advise that my cake design studio is a dedicated air-conditioned room and I always practice a high degree of hygiene including sanitising hands before any work is done or equipment is handled, and disinfecting work surfaces throughout the day.
Cancellation notice:
Please note cancellations or postponements within 14 days of the scheduled pickup/delivery date are not possible. Your cake will be completed as per your previously confirmed order details ready for contactless pickup or delivery as originally planned.

Cake Deliveries in Brisbane or Gold Coast:
Note: read about contactless deliveries above.
I can deliver your cake to your home or your venue in Brisbane CBD, Brisbane northside, Brisbane southside, in Redlands and other areas of Brisbane and the Gold Coast. Or you can arrange to pick up from me. Delivery prices depend on delivery location with Brisbane starting at $40 and Gold Coast starting at $60. Delivery is available Monday through Saturday.
Cake Pick Up Appointments:
Note: read about contactless pickups above.
Please discuss your requirements with me. If you do pickup it is important you arrive on time as other pickup appointments, consultations and cake deliveries are scheduled around your appointment time. Pick up is from my cake design studio in Shailer Park on the south side of Brisbane.
Please Note: While it is generally not a problem for clients to transport smaller cakes, self-transporting any cake is at your own risk. I will not be responsible for any damage that may occur to a client-transported cake once it has been picked up.
