The Importance of a Perfect Wedding Cake
Symbolising Sweet Beginnings

Questions:
How far in advance should I order my wedding cake?
Brunetti Oro offers the fastest wedding cake service in Melbourne, with cakes ordered through our Cake Builder available in just 3 days. For Custom Cakes, we need a little longer, with cakes needing 10 days from payment (and a discussion before that) so advance ordering is recommended, especially for highly customized designs requiring more preparation and detail work.
Can I completely customise my cake design?
The online Cake Builder encourages exploring combinations of size, shape, colouring, textures, and flowers so each cake uniquely conveys the personalities of the couple while remaining scrumptious inside too. If the Cake Builder doesn’t quite match your vision, you can put in a custom request and speak with the team to create the cake of your dreams.
What are Brunetti Oro’s most popular wedding cake flavours?
There are clear winners when looking at which wedding cake options are the most popular at Brunetti. Taking the crown is the impressive Croquembouche tower, which adds an air of elegance to the special day. Our Cake Builder Croquembouche comes with three flavour options – vanilla custard, chocolate custard and zabaglione cream. The runner up is the Millefoglie, with layers of chocolate or vanilla cream sandwiched in puff pastry. The Millefoglie is increasingly popular at wedding celebrations across the country as couples aspire for more unique options than a typical cake.
Here are some expanded tips for choosing wedding cake sizes and handling leftovers:
Tips for Choosing the Perfect Cake Size
- Once you know your guestlist, allow one slice per person. If your celebration is a big one you can add a slab onto the side to accommodate larger numbers without needed a giant cake.
- Don’t forget to reserve the top ceremonial tier to be frozen for eating on your first anniversary next year!
- Discuss your reception flow, venue layout, and catering timeline details with Brunetti Oro’s team to decide the optimal main cake size.
- Err on the slightly larger side with guest numbers creeping upward leading up to the big day through last-minute additions.
Handling Leftover Cake: Tips and Ideas
- Freeze cake slice portions in airtight containers to enjoy weeks later with coffee as sweet newlywed breakfasts.
- Transform leftover crumbs and chunks into trifles by layering them with fresh fruit, sweet cream, chocolate shavings or liquor then refrigerate overnight.
- Make cake truffles by crumbling remains then rolling doughy texture into balls, chilling, and coating the bites in chocolate or colored coconut flakes. Then gift them.
How and when do I pay for my order?
Brunetti Oro allows online payment via all major credit cards when you place orders on their site. Installment payment plans can also be arranged by contacting their customer experience team to split costs. Delivery fees apply based on cake sizes ordered and locations required.
