Can I put a photo on cupcakes in Melbourne?

Yes. Choose Custom Picture Cupcakes, upload the picture or pictures you want, and we print them on edible discs mixed across the box. Pick a box of 12 in vanilla, chocolate or a mix of both, or a box of 24 minis. Larger or custom orders need longer notice, so order as early as you can.

Can I choose every flavour in my box?

Yes. The build-your-own box lets you pick each flavour and mix in cake slices, with at least 3 of any one flavour. Boxes come in 12, 30, 50, 200 or 500, at one price per box. You can also add a message of up to 120 characters before you check out.

When will my custom cupcakes arrive?

Order by 12 noon for next-weekday delivery. We hand-deliver across Melbourne Metro on weekdays, generally between 9am and 3pm. There is no weekend or public-holiday delivery, so pick Friday for a weekend party. Larger or custom orders need longer notice, so tell us your date when you order.

Can you put our company logo on custom cupcakes?

Yes. Logo cupcakes are covered on our branded cupcakes page, which explains how we print your logo on edible discs. For office orders, bulk quantities or a quote, use the corporate cupcakes page, where you can upload up to 4 logos and also order mini cupcakes and cake slices.

Build your box Custom Picture Cupcakes

What can you customise on a box of cupcakes?

There are two ways to make a box your own, and a third route if the design is a company logo.

Choose the flavours and the message. Our build-your-own box lets you mix cupcakes and cake slices, with at least 3 of any flavour you pick. Write a message of up to 120 characters before you check out. Boxes come in 12, 30, 50, 200 or 500, at one price per box.
Print a photo. With Custom Picture Cupcakes you upload the picture or pictures you want, and we print them on edible discs spread across the box. Pick a box of 12 in vanilla, chocolate or a mix of both, or a box of 24 minis.
Add a business logo. Logo orders sit on our branded cupcakes page, and office or bulk orders go through corporate cupcakes.

How do photo cupcakes work?

Choose the box size and flavour on the Custom Picture Cupcakes page, then upload your image as a PNG, JPG or WEBP file of up to 4MB. A picture of a person or a character works well. We print each picture on an edible disc, place the discs on hand-frosted buttercream and mix them through the box so every guest gets one.

Which flavours can you pick?

The build-your-own box currently offers Vanilla, Chocolate, Red Velvet, Chocolate Vanilla, Chocolate Peppermint, Vanilla Chocolate, Vanilla Strawberry, Coconut, Mocha, Salted Caramel, Hazelnut Heaven, Cookies n Cream, Rocky Road, Molten Chocolate and M n M. Hazelnut Heaven and Rocky Road contain nuts. You can fill a box with one flavour or split it across several.

Can custom cupcakes be eggless, vegan or gluten-free?

Every flavour comes in an eggless version, and you can ask for it in your order notes. We also have a vegan range and gluten-free options. Everything is made in a shared kitchen that also handles nuts, gluten, dairy, eggs, soy and sesame, so it is not suitable for severe allergies or coeliac disease. Read our allergen information before you order.

How much notice do custom cupcakes need?

Order by 12 noon for next-weekday delivery. We hand-deliver on weekdays only, generally between 9am and 3pm, with no weekend or public-holiday delivery, so choose Friday for a weekend party. Larger or custom orders need longer notice, so send us your date early. Delivery costs $0 to $20 depending on your suburb, and it is free over $100. See cupcake delivery for areas and fees.

What does a custom box cost?

A build-your-own box is $66 for 12, $150 for 30, $225 for 50, $800 for 200 or $1,750 for 500. Custom Picture Cupcakes run from $66 to $84 depending on the option you pick. All prices are in AUD and include GST. For more than 500 cupcakes, ask us for a quote.
