Do your cakes need to be refrigerated?
Yes. We recommend refrigerating all of our cakes, cupcakes, bars until ready to serve. Depending on the weather/humidty, we will let you know how long the cake can sit out before serving.
I have a severe allergy. Are your products safe?
Although we take every precaution to clean and sanitize all tools and work areas between every baking project, our kitchen contains: gluten/flour, peanuts, cashews, almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, dairy and eggs. If you have a severe allergy, please let us know. We will take every step necessary to keep you safe, but can never guarantee against cross-contamination.
Can I order a cake flavor that is not on your menu?
I am able to accommodate most special request flavors: ie, carrot cake, german chocolate cake. However, I have to add on a $5-10 special request fee to cover ingredients. Feel free to contact me to discuss what you are looking for: confectionsbycaseyrenee@gmail.com
Were you the pastry chef from the Ace Hotel/Whitfield?
Yes, I was at the Ace Hotel Pittsburgh since the opening in 2015 and left in 2019 to open Confections. You may have had one of my award winning desserts in the Whitfield Restaurant or in the events and coffee shop spaces.
Can you make the same chocolate cake that was on the menu at Whitfield?
Yes. The olive oil chocolate cake that I made at Ace Hotel is the same cake that is currently on my menu. You can custom choose your own filling and buttercream flavors or try one of my seasonal specials.
Can you recreate the exact desserts you had at Whitfield?
I am not able to make exact replicas of my restaurant desserts. However, I am able to do modifications to some classics such as the cashew butter chocolate cake and the chocolate cake with nutella mousse filling. An upcharge will be added to cover special ingredients, $5-10 depending on the size. Feel free to contact me to discuss what you are looking for: confectionsbycaseyrenee@gmail.com.
