Small Bakerys – how do you handle tastings for wedding cakes etc?
I am starting out a small bakery, I will do cupcakes and cakes mostly. I have a large range of cakes that can be used for weddings and celebrations and even more frostings. However I intend to remain small, maybe one or two wedding cakes a week tops. Any suggestions on how to handle tastings? It wouldn’t be time or cost effective to make 10 flavors of cakes on demand. Do you freeze cake? Or make up really small quantities?
Also, do you ever cater to functions for a cake where a handful of the guests are vegan, lactose intolerant etc and so are you asked to provide a small cake on the side?
And finally, any tips in covering myself for a bride who doesn’t like the cake on the day? I intend to get a good consultation, provide sketches and get an order signed, but any other suggestions would be great. I don’t want to run foul of a bridezilla! I am in Northern California.
Thank you so much!

the bakery I work at is fairly small and this is what we do.
The owner selected the flavors and icing combinations of what she offers for wedding cakes.
The decorators make up a little tray of small wedges of the samples. this is just 2 layers of cake with the matching icing and filling. No decorations and each wedge is about large enough for 2-3 SMALL bites.
These trays of samples are then double wrapped and frozen and pulled on the day she has a wedding cake appointment. These are prepped weekly for the appointments.
We do freeze cakes all the time. It is impossible to have the variety of cakes we offer baked fresh each day and then also iced for sale that day.
Yes, it does happen if a bride doesn’t like the cake but it is rare as she has already tasted the sample and in our bakery the sample is exactly the same as what she would be getting if she chose that particular cake.
We do not make any cakes that are different than what we normally sell. The only difference is the decorations and the way the cake is put together so our customers are already familiar with our product.

What texture do vegan cakes normally have?
|
|
Vegan Cupcakes |
I’m not vegan but I made a vegan cake for someone. Since I’m giving it to them, I couldn’t cut into it and taste it except for the crumbs from the parchment paper I used. It came out really moist and it seems like it’s more of a denser consistency/texture like a brownie than a light and airy cake. Are vegan cakes supposed to come out like that?
I used all purpose flour, vinegar, baking soda, baking powder, oil, sugar, cocoa, vanilla extract, chocolate pudding mix (no animal products in it) and salt. The recipe calls for water too but since i’m gonna make vegan whipped cream out of coconut milk, I didn’t wanna waste the liquid portion of it so I used that to substitute part of the water. I’m wondering if there’s a way to make this cake lighter and less dense. I sifted the dry ingredients twice.
I always put pudding mix in my cakes including white cake and they usually still come out really light.

Egg substitute to make cakes rise?
|
|
Vegan Cupcakes |
I’m vegan, and I usually make cakes from a mix, just leaving out the eggs that it calls for. As substitutes, I’ve tried applesauce, bananas, and extra water, flour and baking soda, but the cakes always turn out very flat. What vegan ingredient can I put in them to make them rise?
