Hire a cake buffet: grandma’s cakes for your event

Handmade cakes from Grandma’s recipes? We can do that!

When you hire a cake buffet from us, what arrives is not only cake but a piece of living room: cakes, tray bakes and strudel made to the family recipes of our grandmas and grandpas, arranged on lead crystal plates in front of a display back wall with pictures and vintage lamps.

How it works

From enquiry to the last slice

1

You send an enquiry

Date, venue, roughly how many guests and whether there is room for one table or two. From that we make you a concrete quote.

2

We put the buffet together

With you, from cakes, tray bakes, strudel and small bites. Vegan and flour-free options are planned in from the start.

3

Our grandmas and grandpas bake

In our bakery in the former Ankerbrot factory, to family recipes, in intergenerational teams.

4

The buffet is there

We set up, a grandma or grandpa and a young colleague look after the buffet, and afterwards we pack up again. You don’t have to organise a thing.

The intergenerational team

Grandma stands behind the buffet

Everything is baked in our bakery in the former Ankerbrot factory, by intergenerational teams. At your event, a grandma or grandpa then stands behind the buffet together with a young colleague.

On a half day they are on site for five hours, on a full day for nine. They cut and serve the cakes and are happy to tell your guests why they do it.
