Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you located?
I am a licensed, home baker located in Dennis, MA and serving residents of Cape Cod.
Do you deliver?
Limited delivery is available for some regions on Cape Cod. Orders for holidays (Valentines Day, Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas) are pick-up only. Pick up only from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. Delivery charges shown are a minimum & subject to change based upon specific location. Visit the Ordering & Delivery page for more information.
How do I order?
There is an "Order" button at the top of this website where you may place your order. You may also request to order via Facebook messenger or Instagram DM. Inquiries may be emailed to orders@perennialdelights.com
How soon in advance should I order?
All Perennial Delights cupcakes are prepared fresh to order and take a significant time to prepare for the more involved designs. I need a minimum of 3 days advance notice for the basic Classic designs, and at least one week's notice for Floral & Theme cupcake designs, as well as specialty cakes.
Custom & Special events book months in advance. Availability fills quickly, so I've provided a calendar on my Ordering & Delivery page.
Am I limited to the designs on your website?
No! If you have an idea in mind, I will work with you to create a unique set of cupcakes for you or select Bakers Choice on the order form and I will surprise you!
Do you provide gluten free cupcakes?
Yes! I provide a gluten free option in both vanilla & chocolate cake flavors Please visit the Ingredients page on this website for more Allergen and Ingredients information.
What cupcake flavors do you offer?
My base product, Classic Delights, are available in vanilla and chocolate cake flavors. Flavors for my Floral & Theme cupcakes are available in vanilla and chocolate. Carrot, Gingerbread, Lemon, Funfetti & Pumpkin are also available for an additional charge with filling and frosting options. Visit the Boxed Floral Sets & Theme Cupcakes page for more information. Specialty flavors are offered throughout the year, with some seasonal offerings. Visit the Specialty Cupcakes page for more information.
What size are your cupcakes?
Perennial Delights is pleased to offer two sizes .. standard (2 oz) and large (4 - 5 oz). Specialty Cupcakes are 3 - 4 oz, depending on flavor chosen.
Why are there minimum order quantities?
In order to be efficient and cost effective, minimum order quantities (MOQs) are required for cupcakes. This ensures costs associated with production, packaging, and operations are covered, especially when dealing with small orders that require the same amount of labor and overhead as larger ones.
Do you ever have extra cakes or cupcakes?
All Perennial Delights are baked fresh to order, with precise measurement of batters and toppings. This is to ensure minimal waste of product. Flash sales are advertised on social channels should I have extra products to sell.
How do I store frosted cupcakes?
Generally, your cupcakes/cake will NOT need to be refrigerated if serving same day. Simply leave in a cool room out of direct sunlight. If serving next day, refrigerate and bring to room temperature before serving. Cakes/cupcakes will be best if consumed within 1-2 days. If you have surplus cake/cupcakes, you can pop them in an airtight container and into the freezer for up to 3 months.
