Is there a minimum order?
Where is your shop?
LoveCakes is an “online bakery,” meaning we do not have a store front for you to visit. We service the Greater Los Angeles area, with our actual kitchen located in Atwater Village. You can place an order by emailing or calling us at 213.393.5808.
How much advance notice do you need?
We will do our best to accommodate orders placed at least 48 hours in advance. Weddings/special events or custom orders require more notice. Please contact us for more information.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept cash, all major credit cards, company checks, and with discretion we may accept personal checks. We will issue an invoice via email once the order is confirmed, and we require payment in full prior to pick-up/delivery. We rely on Square to process our credit card payments.
Do you deliver?
Yes we deliver in the greater Los Angeles area. Please contact us for rates and delivery areas.
Do you cater events/parties/weddings?

Why do you have minimums?
As we are an “online bakery” we bake everything fresh to order, from scratch. We don’t have treats ready and waiting for you to pick up, and therefore are unable to sell in quantities less than the specified minimums.
What is an online bakery?
As part of the Cottage Food Act of California, certain food products are allowed to be prepared in a home kitchen and sold directly to consumers (that’s you!). All LoveCakes products are made in a home kitchen that meets the requirements for a Class B permit and is inspected yearly. Registration #: LA19E130009 .
Can you decorate or personalize the cupcakes?
Yes we can! There are a few options. The easiest and free option is to use colored sprinkles, confetti, quins, etc. Just let us know if you have a color preference and we will do our best to match it. Next, we can create paper toppers customized with your message and designed to match your party theme/decor. These are $6 per dozen. Here are a few examples of our toppers. We can even use your logo for corporate events. We also have an assortment of sugar shapes to place directly on the cupcake. These are also $6 per dozen. Pictured is a baby shower sample. We love to work with our customers to make sure our cupcakes not only taste amazing, but look great at your party or event. Let us know how we can help!
Can you include a card or message with the order?
We are happy to include a complimentary gift card with your order. Please send us the exact message you would like transcribed. If you would like to include your business card with orders sent out to your clients / business associates, please contact us for our mailing address.
Do you ship your treats?
Unfortunately the CA Cottage Food Act prohibits us from shipping our treats. You can ship them anywhere you’d like after purchase however!
Do you offer tastings?
Yes we do. A standard tasting is 3 cupcake flavors/frostings (2 cupcakes of each flavor) for $30. For additional flavors, contact us for pricing.
