Most baptism ceremonies do have a baptism communal cake as it is an old tradition still practiced to date. The baptism cake can be a simple cake, one tier with no frosting or fondant or a custom baptism cake, multi-layered and with frosting or fondant decorations.
Unless you are a baker or a DIY enthusiast, you will need to find a professional baker to bake your baptism cake. Finding the right baker to work is dependent on several factors such as their fees, expertise and speciality.
Below are four tips for finding the best baker to work on your baptism cake.
- Conduct an online search – A simple ‘Baptism cake bakers in Woodbridge’ search on Google will give a list of bakers whom you can check out. By checking their individual websites, reviews and location, you can narrow down the list to those who seem like a good fit and continue to qualify them further. Any professional baker will definitely be listed online with a rich portfolio to show, clear service offerings and testimonials from previous clients. If you can come across a website with scanty information, the owner is most likely a phony.
- Ask for referrals – Within your networks, you probably have attended a baptism event whose cake you loved, If not, any event that you attended and enjoyed the cake served should be a starting point in seeking referrals. Simply reach out to the host of the particular event and ask them for contacts of the baker who baked their cake. If it turns out that baker only specializes in one kind of cake i.e. wedding cakes, they will refer you to one that does baptism cakes.
- Check out reviews – Reviews from previous clients do not lie. And even when they do, you can easily tell a made up review from a genuine one. The more the reviews a baker has, the more the clients they have served hence rich experience. When checking out reviews, do not just focus on good reviews. Also look at complains raised by past clients and how the baker has addressed those. It will give an insight into what to expect should something go wrong.
- Conduct physical visits to bakery shops – Sometimes interacting with someone one on one gives a better view of their services, personality and experience. You also get to have a look at some of their samples, taste their flavors and check out their catalogue of designs. If you are instantly amazed at their services, they are the best fit. However, if you keep questioning their expertise as there is nothing to show, you still haven’t found your perfect baker.
