Payment can be made by cash. Wire transfers and Western Union are accepted. NO FOREIGN CURRIENCES ACCEPTED!
Do you deliver?
For Wedding Cakes yes, we deliver and set up. They might also sometimes need on-site assembling which is also done by us. For the regular cakes, yes we deliver as well. Sometimes based on the circumstances, a pick up may be required by you. Delivery Points are as follows: Port of Spain, PriceSmart Port of Spain, Curepe, UWI, Grand Bazaar. Anywhere beyond these points an extra delivery charge is required. Central and South clients usually meet up at Grand Bazaar. We do try to accommodate everyone to the best of our ability.
Do you make dummy cakes?
Yes we do. I sometimes advise clients to use this method so as to save money. You can still have a beautiful cake and no one has to know it's a dummy. This is only done by permission of the client.
Do you decorate cakes made by other people?
Yes, we do that as well. However, it is the final decision of Sweet Mama's Gourmet and the right to decline such a job based on the type and texture of cake. We have had cakes brought to us in the past that gave a lot of trouble to ice and decorate mainly because it lacks moisture or is uneven, etc.
PLEASE NOTE: WE DO NOT STORE ANY PRE-BAKED CAKES. ALL CAKES ARE BAKED WHEN ORDERED, HENCE THE IMPORTANCE OF BOOKING IN ADVANCE.
