Hey Lynn
Thanks for the report!!
You have put my mind at rest as we have CR booked for DS's 9th birthday in December. We have menus and divers arranged too but I was getting jumpy about the cake following all the bad reports posted on this board. I was considering picking a cake up from Boardwalk Bakery on the way to CR (I would have ordered it first of course). That way I could be sure I would have a cake!!! Now, though, I think I will order through CR
Did you order through the hotline or via Debi?
How much was the cake?
Do you have a picture you can post? I would love to see it!!!
Sorry for all the questions!!
Hope you had a good trip despite the pixie-dust being in short supply sometimes
Hugs as always
Joanne
Loved our cake from CR!! I ate some more the night before last and it was almost as good as the first time!
Pictures will be below
I just got off the phone with Poly Dining and was told the same thing, $30!! I asked for a 10" cake with a pic of stitch as Elvis on top. Yes, I got Darlene too!! I went ahead and ordered, I was so shocked I wasn't sure what to say except "really????" Please let me know if you get any ohter info, but $75 seems just ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd also call back. Also, I've learned from my recent experience what you're told on the phone and what you're charged are two VERY different things!
I guess I should have said "edible decorations". I told them that I did not want the image laid on top of the cake..I wanted something added to the top of the cake.
I could see those decorations costing a bit more than just the printed image.
Ok since I started putting them in my TR, it's ok to share over here now too
This is our cake from the GFC. It was ordered as a vanilla cake with white buttercream icing with a Cars theme. Here's what we got:
Overall, pretty good but not at all what I was expecting. Corbin (birthday boy) has a peanut allergy and had NO problems with this cake at all!! We were very pleased.
Here's the mini-castle cake I ordered for DMIL. Again, I ordered a vanilla mini castle cake:
According to my DH who tried some, he said it was amazing. It was the cheesecake-not vanilla cake, but that was fine really.
Overall, happy with the taste and quality. Would order again from GF and follow up with them to make sure all was well.
The waitress had no clue what to charge for the cakes. I'd given her my spreadsheet earlier with the cake info on it and had happened to put down the $32 for the 8" cake we got just so I'd have an idea of what I was spending going along planning.
She ended up charging us $32 for both cakes PLUS took off our Tables in Wonderland (previously DDE card) discount. I think I paid about $30 for both cakes with a tip! Can't get a better deal than that!!
CR cake pictures will be here soon...I had computer problems last night and couldnt' get the pictures off my external hard drive. The problem's been corrected so I'll get them off there tonight!
Please feel free to ask any questions
I think I'm just making this more stressful than it should be!!
