Pricing & process
Every cake is designed for you, so every price is too. Here is what goes into a quote and how the order works.
What sets the price
Four things shape your quote
Size
How many people you are feeding. One tier or two. A bigger party needs a bigger cake.
Design
Hand-made figures, edible prints, gold letters, flowers and toppers all add work and detail.
Extras
Matching cupcakes, chocolate strawberries or treat boxes can be added to any cake.
Date
Your date and time. Busy weekends and holidays fill up first, so ask early.
Serving guide
How big should my cake be?
A general guide for round cakes. Ashland confirms the right size for your party in your quote.
| Cake | Good for | Great for |
|---|---|---|
| 6 inch | 8 to 12 people | Small family party, smash cake |
| 8 inch | 16 to 24 people | Classic birthday party |
| 10 inch | 30 to 38 people | Bigger party, baby shower |
| Two tiers (8 + 6 inch) | 30 to 40 people | Showers, milestones, a big wow |
| Dozen cupcakes | 12 people | Classrooms, add-on to a cake |
Servings are standard party slices. Tall or carved cakes can change the count.

Home / Our Story
Baked in Brooklyn, made for your people
Ashland's Sweet Treats is a custom cake studio in Brooklyn, New York.
Since 2019, Ashland has been making cakes for birthdays, baby showers, engagements and holidays. Each one starts with a conversation: who it is for, what they love, and how the party should feel.
A five-year-old's mermaid cake. A crown for a queen. A teddy bear for a baby on the way. The theme is yours. Ashland turns it into something you can eat.
No two cakes are the same, because no two parties are the same.
