Custom cakes at Happy Cake start at $65. Custom cakes need at least 3 days, plus a consultation and owner approval. You send a request, talk the design through with our team, and approve the design and price before we bake.
How much does a custom cake cost?
Custom cakes start at $65. The final price depends on the size and the design, and our team confirms it with you before anything is made. For comparison, the cakes on our menu cost $37 to $46 each. If you have a budget in mind, put it in your request.
How ordering a custom cake works
- Share your date and idea. Fill in the custom cake form. No payment is taken with the request.
- Talk with our team. We review your details and contact you to go over the design, availability and price.
- Approve design and price. Nothing is final until you approve it. Custom cakes are always confirmed by a person and never charged automatically.
The date you choose needs to be at least 3 days away. Like every order, a custom cake is picked up at our Sugar Land shop.
What to put in your request
- The occasion — for example Birthdays, Weddings, Eid, Diwali, Lunar New Year and Quinceañeras, or anything else.
- The date you need it.
- How many people: 8–10, 12–14, 20–30 and 30+ servings.
- A base flavor: Honey, Napoleon, Red Velvet, Carrot, Black Forest and Spanish Cheesecake — or let us surprise you.
- Your budget, if you have one.
- Any writing you want on the cake.
- The theme and colors, and a description of any reference photos.
- Allergies or dietary notes.
Do you need a custom cake at all?
Often a cake from our menu with a name on it does the job. You can add up to 60 characters of writing to any menu cake at no extra charge, order online, and skip the consultation. Writing is never same-day — see writing on a cake. Choose a custom cake when you want your own design, colors or theme, or one cake for a large group.
Quick answers
- Do I pay when I send the request?
- No. No payment is taken with the request. Our team confirms the design and price with you first.
- Are custom cakes halal?
- Yes, all our cakes are halal, and there's no alcohol in any of them — we don't use alcohol at all. That includes custom cakes.
- Can you make a nut-free or gluten-free custom cake?
- We can't promise that. Please inform us of any allergies. All cakes are made in a facility that processes nuts, dairy, eggs, wheat, and soy. Put any allergy in your request so our team sees it.
- Do you make wedding cakes?
- Yes. Choose Weddings as the occasion on the custom cake form, and our team will go over the size and design with you.
- Can you deliver a custom cake?
- No. We don't offer delivery. Pickup is at our Sugar Land location.
