Simply the best

Cake is a form of sweet food that is usually baked. In their oldest forms, cakes were modifications of breads, but cakes now cover a wide range of preparations that can be simple or elaborate. It is often served as a celebratory dish for weddings, anniversaries, and birthdays. There are countless cake recipes; some are bread-like, some are rich and elaborate, and many are centuries old.

Nantucket Baking Company's menu features a variety of cakes in different flavors and sizes—from rich, chocolate-forward tortes to refreshing, fresh-fruit-filled cakes. For more information on our cake sizes and placing an order, please continue to the information below.

Classic Cake Orders

We need a minimum of 72 hours' notice for classic cakes with a simple buttercream design. Classic cakes can include an inscription, fresh fruit garnish, nuts, sprinkles, chocolate curls, caramel or chocolate drips, and a simple border (top and bottom) at no additional cost. More intricate cake designs are considered custom or specialty—see below for more information.
