Wedding Cake Tastings

Finding the Perfect Wedding Cake Starts with Cake Tastings

At Ally & Eloise, we love meeting our brides and grooms in person to help them decide on a delicious cake flavor for their big day!

To schedule a cake tasting, fill out the form below. 


What to Expect at Your Cake Tasting

Once you fill out the form below, we will add you to our tasting schedule. In the form below, please choose which flavor options you would like to try and include who all will attend the tasting in the appointment notes. Free cake tastings include 6 flavor options, but if you would like to try 6 flavors from both the classic and premium wedding cake options (total of 12 flavors), there is a $25 fee. Our tastings take place at our Forest Drive bakery location in Columbia. At your cake tasting, you can expect:

A personal meeting with Aleka Selig, the owner and baker at Ally & Eloise.

When you meet with Aleka, we'll have six cake samples ready for you to taste with assorted cake flavors and frostings based on whether you choose our classic or premium options. ​
​

We'll also use this time to talk about wedding details including cake design, wedding date, number of guests, flowers, cake stands, and whether or not you'd like for us to deliver your cake.

Common Questions About Cake Tastings

We want you to LOVE your wedding cake, so we offer free cake tastings for our brides to make sure we find the perfect flavors for your wedding cake. You may choose 6 classic or premium flavors from the options listed above for your free wedding cake tasting. If you would like to try 6 flavors from both the classic and premium wedding cake options (total of 12 flavors), there is a $25 fee. 

3. Are dessert table tastings free?
Tastings for our classic dessert table items are free. However, we charge $50 for premium dessert table item tastings.

5. What happens after the cake tasting?
After your tasting, we will send you a follow-up email that includes all the details we discussed. Once we confirm your wedding cake design, size, and flavor, we'll add you to our calendar! We will touch base and send your invoice about one month before your wedding. Until then, if you have any questions or changes, just let us know!
