How to care for your cake on collection
-
Your cake will be chilled prior to collection. If you will be travelling with your cake again after collection, we recommend chilling the cake until this time. Please chill your cake if it has fruit on it, if not consuming the same day.
-
Cakes should be kept flat during transport. If driving, please place your cake in the boot of your car, this is by far the safest place for it. Failing this the footwell by the passenger seat. If you place your cake on the seat or hold it during travel we cannot be held responsible for your cake not arriving in one piece.
-
In hot weather, you may need to refrigerate your cake after collection. During the summer every effort is made to make your cake more heat stable. Your cake is iced in buttercream or ganache, however, and chocolate and butter will melt in hot weather.
-
If your cake has a long journey please inform us when booking. This will need to be taken into account when designing your cake.
-
Finally, buttercream cakes can be fragile so please take care when handling them. We want your cake to be as beautiful when it reaches it's final destination as it was when you collected it from us here at Red Robin Pantry.

I'll be adding a range of scented 2D painted pillar candles to our autumn range. These will also be available for purchase at The Big Christmas Market in Truro this Nov-Dec. We hope to expand on this in 2025 and add these to our online shop in the future. These are painted with water based acrylics, which are non-toxic and safe to burn. So watch this space.
PAINTING COMMISSIONS
In early 2024 I introduced painted wooden canvas, painted in the style of your wedding cake with acrylic 3D sculpture paint. These canvas can be added on after your wedding in sizes ranging from A4 to A1. They are painted in the style of your wedding cake not a painting of your wedding cake. They are a great keepsake of your day.
​
If you would like a painting created to complement your wedding cake to be displayed at your wedding, I can also do this. These can be hung near your wedding cake to make a statement set up or in another prime location at the wedding.
