FAQs
Ordering Process
How do I place an order?
Orders can be placed through:
-
Email
-
WhatsApp
-
Social media channels
While recommended, the order form is optional but will help streamline your ordering process. Your order will be confirmed once you've paid either the 50% deposit or the full amount.
How far in advance should I place my order?
Orders must be placed at least 15 days in advance. While we may accept orders with shorter notice, please note that decoration options may be limited in such cases.
What are your prices?
Each creation is custom-designed, so pricing varies based on specific requirements. Wedding cakes start at €150. For simpler designs, we offer fixed pricing which can be found on our Instagram page @tourangelle_patisserie. We're happy to provide a personalized quote with no obligation.
