What kind of cake is popular for children who love fairy tales?
The Princess Doll cake is a whimsical choice that transforms a cake into a magical gown with a doll nestled in the centre. Children love the way it looks like a real princess twirling in her dress, making it especially suited for fairy tale–themed birthdays and celebrations. It’s both a treat to eat and a decoration that adds instant excitement to the party table.
How can I decorate a princess cake?
The Princess Doll cake is styled to resemble a flowing ballgown, with smooth buttercream swirled elegantly around the base. The doll sits in the middle of the cake, becoming the centrepiece. The design is playful and eye-catching, perfect for events where presentation matters as much as flavour. Ordering the Princess Doll cake by The Cupcake Factory means you get a polished, professional design that looks as magical as it tastes. Plus, it saves hours in the kitchen, leaving you free to enjoy the celebration with your child rather than worrying about whether the cake will turn out.
How can I personalise a princess cake with a message?
Many people try writing on cakes themselves using food pens or by tracing guides with a toothpick, but getting the lettering even and neat can be tricky. With the Princess Doll Cake, you can request a hand-piped message added by professionals, ensuring the name or greeting looks polished and party-ready without the stress of DIY.
How many guests can a princess cake serve?
The Princess Doll cake is made in a single size and serves up to 10 people. This makes it a great option for small to medium gatherings, such as intimate birthday parties or family celebrations where the focus is on fun and detail rather than feeding a large crowd.
What flavours are available for a doll cake?
You can choose from several flavours when ordering the Princess Doll cake, so it matches your taste preferences:
- Vanilla
 
- Chocolate
 
- Marble (vanilla and chocolate)
 
- Red Velvet 
 
Each flavour is paired with soft buttercream, ensuring it’s as delicious as it is beautiful.
How far in advance should I order a custom princess cake?
The Princess Doll cake requires 48 hours’ notice for preparation. If you’re planning a birthday or themed celebration on the weekend, it’s best to order earlier in the week to ensure your spot, especially during busy seasons.
How do I keep a doll cake fresh before the party?
To keep the Princess Doll cake looking and tasting its best, store it in a cool, dry place until serving. If you need to hold it overnight, refrigerate the cake, then bring it back to room temperature a couple of hours before the event so the buttercream softens and cuts smoothly.
Can a princess cake be delivered, or do I need to collect it?
You can choose between Sydney-wide delivery or in-store pick-up for the Princess Doll cake. Pick-up is from:
- Unit 6, 43 Herbert Street, Artarmon NSW 2064
 
Delivery is a convenient option if you’re managing other party details, while collection allows you to take the cake directly home.
What makes a custom princess cake different from a standard celebration cake?
The Princess Doll cake is unique because it combines both a toy and a cake into one design. Instead of a flat decoration, the doll becomes part of the cake itself, making it feel interactive and exciting for children. It’s not just a dessert—it’s part of the birthday experience.
Are there other themed childrens cakes available if I want something different?
Yes, The Cupcake Factory offers a variety of themed and character cakes to suit different party ideas. For example, you might like the Bluey cupcake for playful celebrations or the Mickey Mouse cake for a Disney-inspired party. These options allow you to match the cake design to your child’s favourite theme.
