Book in January for up to 20% savings on wedding cake pricing.
June and October are peak months — book early for best availability.
NYC delivery fees often range from $100 to $300+ due to traffic, tolls, and parking; consider picking up a smaller cake or assigning a trusted friend to save significantly, potentially reducing your total cost by 10-20% for smaller events.
Order a smaller, beautifully decorated tiered cake for display and photos, then supplement with a simple sheet cake of the same flavor to be served from the kitchen. This method can save you 30-50% on the per-slice cost for the majority of your guests.
Choose a classic buttercream finish over fondant, which is more expensive due to labor and materials; fondant can add 20-30% to the cake's cost, while buttercream offers stunning design versatility and a generally preferred taste.
Opt for minimal custom decorations, intricate sugar flowers, or elaborate hand-piping, which are labor-intensive and costly. Instead, use fresh flowers provided by your florist to adorn a simply frosted cake, potentially saving $150-$400 on decoration alone.
Explore highly-rated bakeries in Brooklyn, Queens, or even parts of New Jersey; their overheads are often lower than Manhattan establishments, potentially offering comparable quality cakes at a 15-25% reduced price.
