Getting ready to order
A few questions to ask yourself before you start — so your request is as complete as it can be from the outset.
La Bette Sucrée does not deliver — every order is collected in person. Make sure that you, or someone you trust, will be available to collect it at the agreed time.
If you already know a guest has an allergy, use the time before your event to ask them about it: is it a mild intolerance, or a severe allergy that would need particular precautions? Knowing the answer in advance lets you make an informed choice when you order.
La Bette Sucrée takes allergens very seriously. All our products are made in the same kitchen, so there is always some risk of cross-contamination. Before ordering, please read our allergens page for the ingredients we use and the precautions we take.
The number of guests is one of the first things to weigh up before ordering. But beyond the number, think about how you want to serve dessert. A beautiful centrepiece cake can be stunning — though for some events, pairing it with cupcakes or other small treats works better: easier to serve, and a lovely way to give everyone something that suits them.
When you get in touch, do tell us what you have in mind. We are here to help you find what will suit your occasion best.
If you have a sense of the mood you want to create — a colour palette, a style, a season — now is the moment to start thinking about it. Even a vague direction can be enough to inspire something beautiful.
Before ordering, take a few minutes to gather a handful of images that speak to you. Pinterest, Instagram, photos found online — all welcome. When you fill in our form, share them with us and tell us what draws you to them: the colour, the texture, the overall mood? The more you tell us about what you like — and what you would rather avoid — the better we can make something that feels like you.
Your event date is where everything starts — it lets us check our availability and plan around it. Beyond the logistics, bear in mind that pinning down what you want can take a few exchanges.
If you have a precise vision, some back and forth is often needed to put it into words — and that is a good thing. The earlier you start, the more room there is to do it properly, without rushing. Get in touch as soon as you can, especially if your event falls in a busy period.
