- Wow, your cakes are awesome, and I’d like one. Where are you located?
We are located in Townsville, which is in Queensland, Australia. We’re more than happy for you to come and pick up a Happy Cake from us or we can deliver around the local area (for a small fee!). Unfortunately, for those further afield, we don’t ship or courier at this time, but we’re looking into it, so watch this space!
- OMG, I’m so in the local area, and have a craving for some quality cake!!! How do I go about getting one?
Well, we’re glad you asked. You can call Happy Cakes on 0438 269 878, or drop us an email at happycakesinfo@gmail.com. Please note that while we love Facebook, and think it a quality place to get together with our fans and friends, we get lots of messages, everyday. This means it’s too easy to overlook someone who’s ordering cake. So since we believe that everyone has the right to cake, we don’t accept orders over Facebook. - Can I come and see you to discuss my Happy Cake?
I would be more than happy to discuss your cake in person. Please note though that all consultations are by appointment only. - How much is your cake going to set me back?
Well, we’re not talking about a slab of supermarket sponge with a dab of mock cream here! Each cake is handmade with the freshest ingredients baked from scratch. We use NO packet mixes (a point you can tell we feel really strongly about since we just bolded and underlined and used capitals to make the point!). All the decorations are made by hand to suit each individual cake. In fact, each cake is designed and handmade to suit whatever you want for your occasion. Cakes are layered and covered with ganache to seal in the freshness and add another layer of flavour. As we mentioned, all our cakes are baked to order, so you are guaranteed of getting a fresh product. We offer a quality product with a professional finish in all aspects of your cake. The flavour, the design, even the board your cake is presented on is finished to a high standard. These are all points to consider when pricing your cake. Like they say, you can’t compare oranges with apples.Well, that being said, each cake is as individual as each order. The number of servings, and the intricacy of the design will largely drive the price. Our cakes range in size from 6 inch upward, and can have as many or as few decorations as you would like to order. Cakes start from $100. The best thing to do is contact us with your ideas, and we can work out a pricing from there. - That’s cool, your cakes are a work of art, after all. But I’m feeling like some delicious little cupcakes. How much do they cost?
Our cupcakes start at $4 each, and we have a minimum order of 24. That’s 24 small bundles of delicious joy waiting for you. - Alright, I’m really after a cake for my wedding/birthday/christening/really special occasion where I want to have a knockout cake. How do I get you to make some magic for me?
Okay, I’ve been saying this for a while, BOOK EARLY!!!!(see, I bolded and underlined that one too.). Each and every cake we (by we I mean me!) make is going to be a part of someone’s special occasion, so we need to ensure that we put as much time, craft and love into every cake we make. This means we can only take so many orders each week, so we fill up fast. That being said, we do have cancellations for various reasons, so it’s always worth asking the question just in case we have a free slot. And speaking of cancellations, no enquiry is considered booked until we have received a booking fee of $100 to secure your spot. This fee is non-refundable, but will be taken off the balance of your order. The reason that the deposit is non refundable is that all bookings are date specific, so if you change your mind about your function date, your deposit is forfeit against other orders we have declined in order to take your booking. The balance is required no later than 14 days out from your function. - Alright, alright, I’m booking, I’m booking! What sort of flavours do you do??
Well, as you probably already know, here at Happy Cakes we DO NOT(you see what I did there again?) use any premix during the process of making our cakes. Everything we make is made from scratch with real and fresh ingredients. We even make our own Vanilla Extract!! Eggs are sourced locally and come from a very stress free environment with loving parents. Our cakes are also baked to order so we guarantee you that you’re receiving the freshest! We do not charge any extra for the different flavours we have on offer so you can chose from the following flavours knowing that there is no additional charges. Our flavours list is flexible so if you have a flavour that you would specifically like please let me know and where possible I will try and accommodate your request.

For an additional fee we offer multi flavour layered cakes. This is only available for 3 tiered style cakes. You can chose 3 flavours and these will be layered within each tier and repeated through the others. You’ll basically have multiple flavours within your cake that will have your tastebuds jumping!! Perfect for people who can’t decide on just one flavour! - Okay, so I love your cakes and stuff. How do I go about finding out what design I really want? I’m looking for a little inspiration here, you know what I’m saying.
Well, inspiration is our middle name! (Happy Inspiration Cakes… hmmmm, it’s got a ring). Anyway, why not look at our gallery, to get some ideas on designs we’ve previously done. The other thing we like (apart from when the entire kitchen smells like cake and ganache, all mixed into one) is a challenge! Bring us your ideas, your dreams, hopes and inspirations… and we’ll make a damn fine cake out of them! - So how much cake do I need?
My friend, cake is not a need. It’s a luxury. And you can never, ever have too much luxury, am I right? However, the following guides may be useful in ordering quantities.
