We pride ourselves on offering an impressive variety of birthday cake options to make your celebration extra special. Dhi crafts delectable creations that are sure to delight your guests. 

Our birthday cakes not only taste divine but also look stunning, designed to impress your party guests.

We’re also thrilled to provide a wide assortment of decadent desserts beyond the traditional birthday cake. 

Our signature cheesecake, for instance, is velvety, rich, and topped in Guava jam. 

We also offer bite-sized mini cakes, perfect for those who want to sample multiple flavors or simply prefer a smaller indulgence. 

Birthday Cakes FAQ's

How many people does it serve?

A 15cm cake cuts into 12 to 15 dessert-sized slices, a 20cm into 20 to 25, and a 25cm into 30 to 35. If you are serving it after a meal, you will get more slices than that — people eat less cake after dinner than they think.

How far ahead do I need to order?

We require 2 days notice for orders - except petit four which require 7 days.

You're welcome to place your order as far in advance as you'd like though.

Can I choose when I collect?

Yes, When ordering online, you'll have the option to select your preferred pickup date and time at checkout

Can you write a name or message on the cake?

If it is a 4-layer cake, then yes we can write a small message on the top, though note we have to remove any other decorations to do this (e.g. our coconut cake can't have coconut on top as well as writing).

We cannot write on any other items including bundt, loaf, mini cakes, mini desserts, tarts, cheesecakes.

What would you recommend for an office?

For an office, a tray of 12 mini cakes usually works better than a cake. 

No plates, no cutting, and everyone gets their own.

Can you make a themed or custom cake?

Apologies but I don't make custom cakes, so cannot create something for you that's not listed on the menu.

How should I store it before the party?

For all cakes we can advise at pickup, but store out of direct sunlight, moisture, and heat. For any chilled desserts, store in the fridge in the packaging we give you.
