Although we’re a while away from the Great British Bake Off yet, that doesn’t mean you can’t get excited by the thought of ordering a custom cake, whatever the occasion.
At MyBaker, we specialise in providing the best cakes around that will make any event a memorable one. We’d like to let you know why custom cakes are so popular and why they are a much better choice than a generic supermarket option.
The Best Things About a Custom Cake
If it’s somebody’s birthday, an anniversary, a graduation party, or any other type of gathering that is worth celebrating, a custom cake can make it a bit more special.
Or let’s say the person in question is a big fan of golf, theatre, jazz, or just about anything else you can think of. Something unique and tailored to their hobbies can be added to the design to put a smile on their face.
Store-bought cakes are often serviceable but won’t have a custom message on top to show the recipient how much you care. They’ll be aware of the time, money, and effort that has gone into creating this unique cake. As they say, it’s the thought that counts.
Fresh Ingredients for a Tastier Cake
It’s also very likely that your custom cake is going to taste better than alternatives. They are made with the freshest ingredients to ensure the taste is supreme and the cakes won’t have been sitting on a supermarket shelf for a long time once they’ve been made.
If you’re tempted by the potential convenience of a supermarket cake, we’d remind you that giving yourself a few extra days to get a type of cake or flavour that is exactly what you want, rather than whatever the shop has in stock, is likely to win much more praise and give you a taste sensation.
Health and Dietary Requirements
While it’s true that the vast majority of cakes out there contain sugar, supermarket cakes contain way more sugar on average than a custom cake would. For this reason, and the fact that the cakes comprise natural, fresh ingredients, it’s perfectly reasonable to assume your custom cake is the healthier choice.
As well as health, there might be concerns about the ingredients and what people within the party are allergic to or intolerant of. Gluten-free cakes, dairy-free cakes, and nut-free options can be specified when you make your custom request. Or perhaps you need a low-sugar dessert because of certain conditions some people suffer from. There is no guarantee that the supermarket you visit will have these accommodating necessities.
Then there’s the matter of the theme; if you’ve chosen to have a party centred around a specific colour but the cake doesn’t match, it will look a little out of place. Don’t let this be an issue by choosing the shade that’s right for the event.
