How much does a wedding cake cost in Harare?

The short answer

A two tier wedding cake in Harare starts at around $200. A three tier cake starts at around $300. A four tier cake starts at around $400. Those figures include delivery and on site setup if your venue is in Harare.

Most wedding cakes land somewhere above the starting figure because of the design choices you make. The biggest price movers are sugar work, painted finishes, and the number of dummy tiers (foam tiers finished to look real, used for height in photos).

What is included in a wedding cake quote

A proper wedding cake quote covers more than the cake itself.

• The cake (sponge, fillings, frosting, fondant or buttercream finish)
• Sugar work, flowers, or topper detail
• A real cake tasting before you commit
• Delivery to your Harare venue
• On site stacking and finishing
• A photograph of the finished cake for our records

What changes the final figure

Six factors move a wedding cake price the most in Harare.

• Tier count. Each additional tier adds material and labour.
• Flavour. Rich fruit costs more per portion than vanilla sponge because of the dried fruit.
• Finish. Smooth fondant and painted finishes take more time than buttercream.
• Sugar work. Hand made sugar peonies, roses, and proteas are skilled labour and add up.
• Toppers. A simple acrylic topper is included; a custom carved sugar topper is quoted separately.
• Outside Harare delivery. Quoted per arrangement.
