Real cakes. From our bakehouse.
Bad Fallingbostel is closer to our bakehouse than most people think. On the map it looks as if the two towns were at opposite ends of the Heidekreis district. By car, though, it takes less than half an hour. Measured, it is around 24 kilometres. That is just inside our “up to 25 km” zone, so delivery costs €29 instead of €35.
We only checked this ourselves when we built this page. Before that, we had Bad Fallingbostel in the more expensive zone, estimated as the crow flies instead of measured on the road. We have corrected it.
Christening, confirmation, communion
At family celebrations the cake is rarely the most eye-catching thing in the room. It should fit in, not outshine everything else. That is why our christening and confirmation cakes are usually understated: one colour, a clean edge, the name and the date. What else goes on is up to you:
The basis is a buttercream cake. You design it yourselves in the 3D configurator, that is size, flavour, coating and colour, and see straight away what it will look like. The guide price updates as you go, so you don't have to guess. More about christening cakes → · More about confirmation cakes →
Spring gets busy
A word of advice we would rather give beforehand than afterwards: confirmations and christenings are not spread evenly over the year. They cluster on a few weekends in April and May, and on exactly those days we bake for many families at once.
Three days' notice is the technical minimum. That is how long it takes for the sponge layers to be baked, filled and left to rest. For a date in spring, though, that is cutting it fine. If you call in March, you get the cake you have in mind. If you call on the Wednesday before the celebration, you get whatever is still possible by then. Both work, but the first is calmer for everyone.
What a celebration cake costs
| Regular cake 28 cm | 12 slices | €45 |
| Buttercream cake 20 cm | 6–8 people | €45 |
| Buttercream cake 28 cm | 12–16 people | €65 |
| Two-tier 28 + 20 cm | 18–24 people | €110 |
If the celebration stays small, one of our 19 regular cakes at €45 is often the most sensible choice: 28 cm, 12 slices, a set variety, no designing needed. Not every celebration needs a cake made specially.
FAQs from Bad Fallingbostel
How much does delivery to Bad Fallingbostel cost?
Delivery costs €29. The driving distance from Soltau to Bad Fallingbostel is around 24 kilometres, which puts it just inside the “up to 25 km” zone. Because that is close to the boundary, the configurator may work out the next zone for an address on the edge of town. In any case, the price only becomes binding once we have spoken to each other.
How simple can a christening cake be?
As simple as you like. Many people choose a buttercream cake in a single colour with the child's name and the date. Lettering costs from €5. If you want more, add fresh berries (from €7 per tier) or real flowers (by arrangement, usually €20–50 per cake). There is room to go further, but none of it is a must.
When should we order for a confirmation?
Technically, 3 days' notice is enough. But in April and May the confirmations fall on just a few weekends, and on those we bake for many families at once. If yours is one of those dates, it is better to get in touch a few weeks ahead. Then we can say yes for certain.
Can we collect the cake ourselves?
Yes, and it costs nothing extra. Collection is at Lüneburger Straße 29 in Soltau: Tuesday to Friday 6 am–6 pm, Saturdays 6 am–1 pm, Sundays 6:30 am–6 pm. We are closed on Mondays. Tell us when you order what time you are coming.
When is your big day?
Tell us the date and we will tell you what is possible by then.
