Looking for cakes for events or office birthdays? Here are high and low options that fit the bill.
1. After a recent kitchen expansion to add more space for its pastry department, Occasions Caterers is now offering custom cakes. The company can create cakes with logos for corporate events or design creative options for birthdays, baby showers, and other celebrations. Pricing starts at $5 per slice for buttercream cakes and $7 a slice for cakes made with fondant. There is a 25-person minimum for orders, which must be placed at least one week in advance.
2. For a more basic cake in a pinch, Something Sweet offers "quick cakes" that can be customized via its Web site. Planners can select a type of cake and frosting, choose the cake's size, and write a custom message. Pricing starts at $35 for a six-inch cake and goes up to $60 for a 12-inch cake. Forty-eight hours' advance notice is required.
