Cake Dummy Lead Times Explained

Understanding lead times helps you plan any project with a firm deadline, whether it's a single custom piece or a large wholesale order.

Standard In-Stock Sizes

Common sizes already in stock typically ship quickly, since no additional production time is needed.

Custom Sizes and Shapes

Custom dimensions require production time beyond standard shipping, since the piece is cut and finished specifically for your order.

Bulk and Wholesale Orders

Large quantity orders also require additional production time proportional to order size, especially during high-demand seasons like spring wedding season.

Planning Around Lead Times

For any project with a hard deadline (a wedding date, an event, a school semester start), confirm current lead times well in advance and build in a buffer for unexpected delays.
