We are having dinner at yachtsman steakhouse. Does anyone have an email address where I can contact to have a custom mini cake ordered? I know there is a phone number but I thought i also read somewhere that there was an email addy that one could use to place order/request

I can tell you that I have seen 6-inch 1-tier Mad Hatter cakes done by other bakeries on property.

When I ordered my cake (post 963) I asked for a 6 inch from Brian and he agreed. However mine wasn't a Mad Hatter style. OP, it can't hurt to ask! Hope it all works out, and please post pics!

You have to call Yacht and Beach Club private dining and ask for the pastry chef's email. Yvette was wonderful to deal with. Send her a detailed desription of what you want...flavors, colors, inscription and some pictures if you have them.

Thx. I called the phone number and spoke to Yvette. Super awesome and super easy!

I was in Disney a few weeks ago for our 2nd wedding anniversary and had a cake made by the Boardwalk. It was the UP! mailbox with our names on it. It was absolutely amazing! I would post it but I have no idea how lol!

To post photos on the DIS, you need to first upload them to a photo-sharing site like www.photobucket.com or the DIS's own community gallery, here: http://photopost.wdwinfo.com/disboar...index1332.html

Then just grab the IMG code they give you for each photo, which should start and end with these tags:

[IMG] [/IMG]

Grab everything, even the tags, and paste it into a post.

Last time I ordered a cake things went very quickly. I'm a little concerned this time. I called the Contemporary on Friday and got the email address. I sent my email later that evening, but have not heard back. I wasn't sure if the weekend/ days off/ Halloween prep might factor into this. Just wondering how long I should wait before trying again? And if I should email again or call? The cake involves a sketch and numerous bullet points so I'd feel MUCH better about getting a quote via email first. I just also don't want to be impatient. Any thoughts?

Not sure if this will help but this was in the email Brian sent me when I made my order.

Brian Kruger
Chef Assistant
Cake Decorator
Disney's Contemporary Resort
Thursday-Monday 7am-330pm
Days off Tuesday/Wednesday

It took around 2 days for me to hear from him.

jasmine31523 · 10-29-2012, 07:01 PM

I ordered this cake on October 26, 2012
Chef Mickey's
$77.00
Yellow w/ Chococlate Buttercream.

It was like heaven it was so pretty we didn't even want to cut but once we did it was the best cake I have ever had. Even the fondant tasted great!

Janis · 10-29-2012, 07:04 PM

I emailed him on a Thursday and heard back on Monday. I'd give him another day and then try again if you don't hear from him.

Thanks guys!

While I'm thinking he's probably out until Thursday...I'll follow up if I don't hear back tomorrow. I really just want to know how much to be setting aside in the budget.

Has anyone ever had a Perry the platypus cake? I am thinking a 6 or 8 inch. We will be at San angel inn or cape may.

Thanks

That is good to know. I could see how maybe a mad hatter style might make a difference. I will let you all know what he says.

Thanks again for all the assistance!!!
