Franny's Cup and Saucer


 It is our pleasure to create delicious tailor-made cakes for weddings throughout the Sonoma and Mendocino Coasts. We love the challenge of matching each cake we make to our clients' tastes and styles, and we always use the highest quality, all-natural ingredients, such as organic flour, free-range local eggs, and locally grown produce. We really believe that your wedding cake should taste just as good as it looks! We've actually had clients tell us that their wedding cake was the best cake they'd ever eaten. How great is that? We are also thrilled to offer more modern-day takes on the wedding cake as well, such as cupcakes (so cute!) and the ever popular dessert buffet. 


We offer complimentary consultations and cake tastings (two flavors of our choice-we'll surprise you!) are available for $5 per person. If you have a cake you'd especially like to sample, just let us know and we will do our very best to have it on hand for you to try. We are also happy to make you a full size 6 inch sample cake, which serves 6-8 people, for $25. During your consultation, feel free to bring Franny  any photos or other inspirations you would like to see be a part of the design of your cake!


Below you'll find a list of our current cakes for 2009, but please feel free to mix, match, and add to your liking. Prices are based on a per serving basis, and range from $7 per serving on up, with a $200 minimum. Since we are such a small business, we urge our clients to book far, far in advance, as we are not equipped to make more than one wedding cake per day. (It's just Franny, and June through October is an especially busy time.) A $50 deposit will secure your wedding date on our schedule, and the remaining balance is due two weeks prior to your event. Unfortunately, we are not able to process credit cards at this time, but we happily accept cash or personal checks!


We are happy to provide delivery to (almost) any location! Delivery within Point Arena is complimentary, and delivery to Manchester, Irish Beach, Gualala, Anchor Bay, and the Sea Ranch is available for $25, and all the way to Annapolis is $50. (So far away!) Don't see your location? Just ask!

All of our cakes are decorated in delicious & creamy vanilla buttercream, which makes a fetchingly smooth white cake. Buttercream can also be tinted a rainbow of shades and colors, and rolled fondant is also available, at additional $1 per serving. Cakes decorated with fondant can't be refrigerated, so we're not able to use fillings such as pastry cream and whipped cream for these cakes. However, ganaches, buttercreams, and preserves work wonderfully, and we'll be sure to help you find a combination you'll love! 

 

We can't wait to help you create the cake of your dreams!
