Hi All! :wave:
As some of you know may know, i've been trying to reach the Cake Hotline for Epcot for a few days now.
So I called again yesterday and can verify what the into message says.
For parties of 5 or less, you can order a Celebrations Cake - chocolate or vanilla - at the podium or select restaurants through out the World. Not all restaurants participate, but the list is extensive. This will be a generic celebration cake - with out personalization.
You continue through the intro message and it gives you 5 options - depending on if you want a cake at DHS - press 1, AK - press 2, Epcot - press 3, and MK - press 4, resorts - press 5. When you press respective number, you get a list of the restaurants participating. If the restaurant you want is listed then you hold and place a cake order.
After not hearing from the Epcot department - I pressed 4 for MK and apologized to the Cake CM b/c I don't like to do that - but the MK line picked up right away. I explained that i was trying to get in touch with the Epcot line and she apologized b/c she knows that they are very short staffed.
I pumped her for info - is there a place to go look at the cakes and she said no. But I got loads of decorating info from her.
On the 10 inch and larger cakes - which cost about $45 and feed 10 and more - those are the ones that you can get the edible Disney Character images on them - but it costs $30 more then the $45 cake. So you are now looking at over $75 for a cake! WOW! The edible images are cute but for two people - that is way too much cake - and that much for a cake?? I'm not sold yet. :lookaroun
So I asked if there was anything they could do to the 6 inch cake - other then just personalizing it. And I got a weird mixed answer. Basically by calling ahead, I can get the 6 inch cake personalized and ready the day I want it. But i wanted something Micky - or special - and she said that they can do a Marzapan Mickey and if you add that - it just says Happy Birthday and the personalized name is removed. Why they can't do both - I have no idea b/c i have no pic to see this Marzapan Mickey.
Anyway - she said that Marble cake is availbe in cakes 10" and larger. And she said that there is a Mickey Face Cake - that does not say Happy Birthday or give the person's name - but is in the shape of mickey - that runs around $35. The at the podium cakes is $21.50 I think.
I am a bit bummed b/c I want them to make it really special - but with that being said - the CM I spoke to was hesitant to give me info on what was offered at Epcot b/c she only knew some of what was available - not all. As for not calling - she said that since I am so far out (35 days) then that is why they have not called me back - and they should soon.
Hope this info helps to all those who are looking to order cakes!! :wave:
