For best enjoyment, consume your cake within 2 to 3 days. Store the cake in a cool, dry area out of direct sunlight. Please be aware that cakes left in warm climates have the possibility of melting or deforming. If collecting your cake, we suggest placing the cake in the boot of your car with nothing else to keep the cake flat and safe for travel. On collection or delivery, we will ensure the cake is as discussed and the design meets your expectations. Once the cake has been collected or delivered, Wild Thistle Cake Design do not take responsibility for any damage or warping to the cake.
