Build a cake from what we actually bake
We think in portions, not diameters. A 24 cm cake serves twelve if it comes after dinner; if the cake is the main event and the children come back for seconds, count on eighteen portions instead. Tell us how many guests you have and we will tell you the size.
We do not do fondant figurines, edible photographs or constructions held together with skewers. We do clean cakes with cream, chocolate, fruit and simple decoration – made to taste good even when nobody is photographing them.

Work through the steps from left to right. Nothing is sent until you confirm it, and you pay nothing until we have called you.
The occasions we bake for
Weddings
A wedding cake plus canapé sweets – small pastries guests can eat standing up. Book at least a month ahead; summer Saturdays fill up sooner. We deliver the cake to the venue and assemble it on site.
Birthdays and celebrations
Our most common order. From six portions for two people who do not want to overdo it, to thirty for a fiftieth birthday in the community hall. Hand-piped inscription; bring your own candles.
Corporate events
Tartlets, canapé sweets, savoury platters and sandwiches for meetings, openings and Christmas parties. We invoice your company, and we deliver to offices in Rača, Nové Mesto and the centre. For over 100 pieces, give us a week.
Christenings, graduations and proms
Smaller cakes with restrained decoration, usually with cream and seasonal fruit. For christenings we find a lighter cake works better – after a restaurant lunch, nobody eats much.
Questions we get most often
Roughly 2.8 to 3 kg, which means a 24 cm diameter. We count 90 g per portion when there is other food on the table and 120 g when the cake is the only dessert. Above 40 guests we suggest two tiers, or a smaller cake plus a tray of sweets — the last slices from one wide round never cut cleanly.
Yes, we do edible printing on sugar paper. Send us a decent-resolution image at daniela@nakolace.sk — a photo taken of a phone screen prints blurry. We apply the print on the day of collection, because sugar paper absorbs moisture over time and the colours bleed.
Yes. Tastings run on weekday mornings when the shop is quiet and take about 90 minutes. You taste three sponges, three fillings and two fruit layers; we go through the design, count portions and give you a firm price. If you order, the tasting fee comes off the final total. Book ideally 4 to 6 months before the wedding.
