FAQ

At Dlux Cakes, we want to help all our customers to make informed choices about our products. If you are adhering to a special diet, or have a food allergy or intolerance, please let us know in advance.

Cross-contamination

Please note that all our products are baked fresh onsite in our kitchens, which handle ingredients used to make all our products. While we do have processes in place to minimise the risk of cross-contamination, we have small kitchens and do not have segregated production lines, so cross-contamination of ingredients is possible. All our kitchens handle all the main allergens of dairy, nuts, peanuts, gluten (wheat), egg, sesame, sulphites and soya.

If you have a serious allergy to any of these allergens, or one which could cause you to have a major allergic reaction, sadly the only way for you to be 100% safe is not to consume any of our products.

All our handmade cakes are delivered nationwide. Including Birthday cake, Wedding Cake, London Cake, Bespoke Cake Toppers, Cupcakes, Christening Cakes and ect..

How to store your Cakes?

Use of Foil / Clingfilm

Wrapping the cut edges of the cake with foil or clingfilm helps prevent it from drying out and should be eaten within 3 days. This barrier minimizes exposure to air, which can lead to staleness.

Refrigeration

Depending on the type of cake, refrigeration might be beneficial. Cakes with perishable fillings or frostings, such as those with cream or custard, should be stored in the refrigerator. However, refrigeration can dry out some cakes, so it’s essential to balance this consideration.

Room Temperature Storage

Cakes without perishable fillings can often be stored at room temperature for a few days. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.

Airtight Containers

If you don’t want to use foil or clingfilm, consider placing the cake in an airtight container. This can provide a protective barrier against air and help maintain moisture.

Avoid Odors

Cakes can absorb odors from the surrounding environment, so store them away from strong-smelling foods.

Freezing

If you want to extend the shelf life beyond a few days, consider freezing the cake. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then foil to prevent freezer burn. Thaw the cake in the refrigerator when ready to eat.
