How it Works
Our Cakes · Ordering Process · FAQs
We have included answers to some of the most commonly asked questions below. If you still have questions, feel free to contact us. We'll get back in touch with you via email within 24-48 hours.
Flavors
Our inventive flavors offer a modern twist on the traditional. We bake all of our cakes with quality ingredients and finish them off with Italian meringue buttercream, which has a lower sugar content making it silky smooth and less sweet than other buttercreams.
We have a number of flavors that do not contain nuts; however, please keep in mind that we do operate in a facility that processes nuts. We do not currenlty offer vegan or gluten free cake options, however please inquire to see other vegan/gluten free desserts.
Cake Sizes
Whether you need a cake jar (or two!) for a romantic night in or a party-size cake for a birthday bash, we’ve got you covered. Select from the following standard sizes:
We offer additional sizes, including tiered cakes, for larger parties or Custom Design Wedding Cakes. Please complete our inquiry form to discuss what will work best for your celebration.

When to Order
We recommend ordering your cake as soon as you’ve confirmed the date for your event. Since we’re a made-to-order bakery, we may occasionally book up, especially around popular dates or holidays. We allow online orders to be placed up to 60 days in advance.
For pickup and local delivery, we require orders to be placed a full two days before your desired date. Our online ordering system will show you the next available dates for orders. If you aren't seeing availability on a date you want, unfortunately that means we're fully booked for that day.
For shipping orders, you may select a delivery date through our online store. If you need a shipment to arrive for a special date, please select the nearest day to that date when checking out. If you aren't seeing availability on a date you want, that means we're fully booked for that day.
Pick-up
We offer pick-up from our retail location 2087 Mountain Blvd, Oakland, CA 94619.
We also have 8 hub locations throughout the Bay Area that are also able to be used for pick up if you are unable to make it to Oakland. Hubs are located in the following cities: Concord, San Francisco, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and San Jose.
Full Belly Bakery is not responsible for damage to your cake after pick up, so please plan carefully for how you will secure the cake in your vehicle.
Delivery
We also offer delivery within a 10-mile radius of our Oakland bakery for a $15 delivery fee. Deliveries are available during the following times:
- Thursday & Friday: 4PM to 6PM
Order Changes & Cancellations
For orders placed through our online store, you can cancel your order or reschedule up to 72 hours before your confirmed pick-up or delivery date.
If you placed an order for shipping outside the Bay Area, we cannot accommodate order changes or cancellations after you submit your order, as we prepare these items for shipping within hours of your purchase.
For Custom Design Wedding Cakes, a 50% non-refundable deposit is required to hold the event date, with the remaining balance due 14 days prior to the event. You may cancel or reschedule up to 14 days prior to the event date. If you cancel within 14 days of the event, we will not be able to provide a refund.
