Custom Cake Prices in Melbourne: What Affects Your Quote?
A clear guide to starting prices, two-tier cakes, toppers, flavours, and why custom cakes are quoted individually.
Starting prices give you a realistic guide
Basic buttercream cakes start from $150, custom-designed cakes start from $280, and two-tier cakes start from $450. These are starting prices, not fixed package prices.
The final quote depends on the cake size, number of serves, flavour, finish, toppers, decorations, structure, and design complexity. A simple buttercream finish and a detailed themed cake can look similar in size but require very different production time.
Custom details change the quote
Names, numbers, handmade toppers, florals, pearls, edible images, character-inspired details, metallic finishes, and complex colour matching can all affect the quote.
That is why Simshine Cakes uses a quote-based process. The baker reviews your actual celebration brief before confirming the best price and deposit.
How to get an accurate quote faster
Include the event date, serving guide, cake flavour, colours, cake message, topper preference, pickup or delivery needs, and any inspiration photos.
If you are not sure what you want, choose the closest direction in the quote form. The baker can recommend the most suitable design level after reviewing your details.
