Thank you so much. It’s exactly what I want! Was it a white cake and did you have a filling?

I placed my order today for pickup at the Grand Floridian at 430pm on Wed 6/29
Red velvet with cream cheese icing
Star Wars themed with Ashoka inspiration (they said they cannot use her image directly)
Will be with fondant, lightsabers and I think chocolate ships. $145 plus tax

I called, texted and emailed since we were on short notice. Julisa said she was responding to a text.
ETA Julisa emailed me multiple pictures of cakes while I was on the phone with her and she had questions answered by the bakery while I waited. It went fairly smooth and fast!

Gosh it has been forever since I posted on a Cake Chatter thread, the little girl in my profile picture turns 25 next month! So tonight I emailed the Grand Floridian for our July trip, I requested a 8" 25th Anniversary Castle Cake ( Dole Whip flavor) for our Garden Grill reservation. I also requested 4 mini cakes for our Crystal Palace reservation, a Haunted Mansion theme, a Grumpy theme, a Graduation theme and a Dalmation theme. Hoping for great cakes.

i ordered a graduation cake for my granddaughter and have been communicating with Julie for over a week. She is a delight to deal with. All is set for our trip in a week.

Thanks to all on this board who helped me tremendously!

I ordered a graduation cake for my daughters for next week. I emailed GF Bakery and had a response from Glorimar. She priced out several options for me and then we had a phone call to go over and finalize everything. It will be delivered to our dinner at the Grand Floridan Cafe next week! I can't wait!

Cake turned out pretty well - DS was happy and it tasted amazing. I do think we could have done without the fondant. The chocolate rocks were pretty neat and my son promptly ate the lightsaber hilts which he thought was great.

@LeslieLou Thanks for sharing your experience!

I ordered a cake for my daughter’s birthday. We love the way it turned out! It was a surprise. She knew a cake was arriving, but I wouldn’t tell her anything else. Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is her current favorite ride. Someone recently posted photos of a cake with this design, which I used for inspiration.

The cake had her name below “Happy Birthday.” I intentionally blurred it as I don’t want to share my child’s name on this board. It’s kind of hard to see, but there are silver ribbons in the cake just like in the cake @LeslieLou posted above.

It was a marble cake with cookies and cream filling. I think there was also buttercream. It tasted like it. The cake was delicious! We have a lot left.

GF bakery delivered to our room at VGF. 6” cake. $145.

Sorry! I can’t seem to make the last photos not appear sideways. (Edit— I figured it out!)

My mom will be turning 68 soon so we are going to celebrating her birthday at Grand Floridian. Reached out and spoke with Glorimar there this morning to order a 6" yellow cake with tropical fruit mousse, yellow ombre buttercream rosettes (inspired by one I'd seen here) with a white chocolate castle topper. It is $65 and will be charged to my room with gratuity and delivered via in room dining.

Also of note, I was offered the castle topper that comes with the mini cake for no additional charge or the larger sized castle topper used for wedding cakes which itself was $150.

Thank you for the thread, its made the experience quite easy. Ill share pictures once delivered.

Contemporary mini-cake, we picked it up at The Wave. My kiddo loves rainbows and they were able to do a rainbow Mickey on top. With DVC discount it was $48.

So cute! Thanks for noting the DVC discount. Back in January, it wasn't offered at the Contemporary, so it's good to know for the future.

I wasn’t sure it’d be eligible, but I always ask!

@Nie0214 Super-cute cake! Thanks for sharing!

Just wanted to share the cake I had delivered to GF Cafe as a surprise for my daughters' graduations (one from 8th grade and the other from high school). The 4 inch top was chocolate with dark chocolate mousse and chocolate buttercream, and the 6 inch bottom was lemon cake, raspberry jam, raspberry mousse and fresh raspberries. I sent an inspiration photo I found on pinterest and worked with Glorimar at the GF Bakery. She was great, the cake was a show stopper, and it was delicious! It was A LOT of cake for the 5 of us, but my daughter and I did our duty and ate as much as we possibly could! It was a splurge at $250.

EDIT: The cost was actually $175! Still a splurge, but the $250 price is what was quoted for an 8 inch with 6 inch top. Sorry!

@SDKMom Thanks for sharing how it turned out! It's a great-looking cake!

Hello all! I look on the first page and then did a search of the thread and nothing came up on this - Can you get a custom cake made at Aulani? We aren't going until December and we are going to be celebrating our daughter's graduation and I wanted to do something special for her. (Were supposed to go this June, but we rescheduled our trip). Thanks!

@princessmocha I have pre-pandemic Aulani cake-ordering info here—not sure if it has changed. However, they are doing weddings, so it seems like you should be able to get one: https://disneytravelbabble.com/how-to/order-cake/aulani-cake-options/
