請問通常一張餅咭要幾錢? 加拿大美心既餅咭可唔可以係香港美心用呢?

Thank you~~

depend on you are getting half doz or one doz
if their cake is $1 each and you are getting half doz one, the cost will be $6 with discount. the discount will be based on how many cards you are going to get. from 5% -20% off

作者: tofu 時間: 2009-2-24 23:21

oh also, you can get the gift card instead of the traditional cake card and they are in $10 - $20/card

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-2-25 12:08

try to save $$.. will check on the half dozen card then

Thanks

Saint Germain is $12 but got 25% if you order the wedding cake with them as well

作者: claichan 時間: 2009-3-24 12:18

I remembered I bought more than enough, and sold to my C9 co-workers the extra ones. I like the deal right. So then my purchase quantity was high and could get more discount.

題外話: one of the C9 thought I was a vendor or something, asked every of her frds if they wanted any (she probably thought it was like those movie tix group buy), even asked her 相熟 waitress at the restaurant, pissed me off so bad.

it is usually $10 each, but if you buy over certain numbers like 30 cards, they usually give u discount. I got married around summer last year. i bought about 50 cards and got discount for $8 each. I think you should ask the bakery shops that you are interested for more information and discount.

i know maxim offers discount. i bought mine at "gum mo fong" though

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-3-24 22:35

Thanks Chrichri~ How much is gum mo fong? coz gum mo fong each slice of cake costs 3 while Maxim costs 1.5~ if i buy $10 card at gum mo fong, ppl can only use it for 3 slices of cakes..will it looks bad when giving out?

作者: chrichri 時間: 2009-3-24 22:47

Well, it looks nice to give out "gum mo fong's" cake card cuz it is famous bakery shop.
my best friends all prefer to receive gum mo fong's cake cards. i don't really know how much each slice is as long as most of my friends do go there for birthday cakes or breads. they just top up there.

gum mo fong gives nice cake cards and envelopes. If you buy lots, they give you discount like $ 8 each. i bought my wedding cake there too. The good thing is they do free delivery for wedding cake. Other places like anna charges you for cake delivery.

Really~ good~

I will go to gum mo fong to take a look then~ I love their cakes too~

作者: tsumorichisato 時間: 2009-3-25 10:19

um...i never thought about how many slices can 1 pastry card buy wor....I bought $12 /card from Saint Germain. Depends on where you guests are living also, cuz i rather get pastry cards from a cake shop which has several locations (at least 3 ).

作者: lizzie 時間: 2009-3-28 19:49

chrichri , do you have pic of your wedding cake? Did you get a discount there too? I am thinking of getting my wedding cake at Kam Mo Fong too.

作者: chrichri 時間: 2009-3-28 21:51

yep... i think they did great jobs in decorating my wedding cake. The boss woman there would give you quite many selection of wedding cakes. she will ask you if you want to bring in flowers to decorate on top as i remember she will tell you to get them for 20 bucks or sth for flowers to decorate on top. i also bought a pair of precious moment cake top too... here is the pic.

oh.... by the way, for wine, i use yellowtail in case you are thinking of buying red wines for ur guests. they are really cheap and also taste good for their prices.
just another suggestion.

作者: lizzie 時間: 2009-3-29 08:58

wow chrichri, thanks for sharing. your cake is beautiful. you must had a perfect wedding.
thanks for the suggestion on the wine too.

作者: sheep 時間: 2009-3-29 09:07

As for cakes, I prefer Michele and second choice is Janice, La Patisserie, also top of the list.

I think simplicity in design is popular,
I used to do wedding cakes that would take weeks to complete(most of the time waiting for the icing to dry), this modern style I think I can finish in under 2 hours.

作者: sheep 時間: 2009-3-29 09:45

What, the cake dry also, Haha

Fruit cake keeps for months, actually they mature and flavour improves too.
That would be for intricate detailed work, nowadays, the brides would make their won wedding cakes, with a lot of fresh flowers.
The top layer of the wedding cake is usually store away until the first anniversary,
if they are still together

is it because the top layer is made of sugar?

The top tier are always made with Candied fruit cake for keeping property,
as for the decoration, I would make them with Gum Paste, Mazipan or White Chocolate tinted with pastel colour. The decorates would keep for months, while
the cake is kept frozen to be consumed at the 1st anniversary

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-3-29 21:18

chrichri , do you have pic of your wedding cake? Did you get a discount there too? I am thinking of getting my wedding cake at Kam Mo Fong too.
lizzie 發表於 28-3-2009 19:49

lizzie, you bought the bakery card yet???

作者: chrichri 時間: 2009-3-30 15:57

28# 小叻

i am glad it helps.
ya, i think yellowtail tastes good, but if you like, just buy one first to buy with ur friends or family before you order lots.

hope you enjoy your wedding cake and wine...

by the way, since you and lizzie and some other ppl are thinking to buy bakery cards, i would suggest you to pair up with them to get the best discount with the cake and cards...

作者: lizzie 時間: 2009-3-30 22:10

thanks chrichri
I bought my bakery card already at Kam More Fong. So I am just looking for a nice and not too expensive cake.

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-3-30 22:15

how many cards did you buy? and what is the discount? I might need to buy 30 of them...

作者: lizzie 時間: 2009-4-2 19:22

I bought 50 at 20% off. I posted on the forum if someone wants to buy with me to maximize the disoucnt , but no one responded la!

chrichri
Did Kam More Fong put the flowers on your cake for free? Or did you have to buy your flowers and put it on yourself?

作者: chrichri 時間: 2009-4-2 20:04

33# lizzie

i bought flowers myself and the woman boss decorated them for me without charges.

作者: lizzie 時間: 2009-4-2 20:05

Thanks chrichri.

作者: lizzie 時間: 2009-4-12 15:38

Chrichri, I ordered my wedding cake la from Kam More Fong. Looking at your cake gave me confidence in ordering from them!

作者: chrichri 時間: 2009-4-12 20:14

Thanks chrichri for the offer!

Just found out the wedding dress I bought few months ago is now too big. I don't know if it can be altered but it's not looking good.

Thanks Chrichri~~

I haven't done anything yet~ want to wait and discuss with my frds how to do the decorations haha~ they are more artistic than me XP

I just got the precious moment cake top from Michaels this afternoon with the 40% off coupons~~ hehee

作者: tequila 時間: 2009-5-13 09:46

i believe if you order 50 or more cards from Saint Germain you get 25% off.. cause i went there to ask i need 200 cards... and my fiance knows the lady that works there.. so she is able to get us another 5% off. but i think they don't hv discounts on the wedding cakes

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-5-22 10:07

I just bought the bakery card from gum mo fong lu~ only bought 30 and saved only 10%. Was struggling to see if I should get 50 and get 20%..but didn't do it at the end becoz of the budget~~ the lady at the counter is so nice ~~ she gave me a 10% VIP discount card

作者: tsumorichisato 時間: 2009-5-22 10:52

She should give you at least 5 VIP cards ah! cuz or every purchase above $25 u can get a VIP card ga ma..ahahah...

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-5-22 10:55

Really? haha i dunno ah~ Eeee~~ so easy to get gei~~ =P

Did you girls realize Saint Germain's pastry cards are so BIG?..my friend didn't realize and order the invitations/envelopes that won't fit with the cards. She ended up have to order cards from somewhere else. I was lucky that even I didn't pay attention to the card size, it would fit with my invites. But i just wanna bring that up if you are going with their cards this year. My friend told me they are going to have new cards coming in smaller size, but they still need to sell all the old cards first la..

作者: tequila 時間: 2009-5-22 11:11

oh thanks for the tips!

作者: 小叻 時間: 2009-5-22 11:24

yea.. i saw a st. germain bakery card before. .they are long regular shaped.. quite big.. but the one i got at kam mo fong are smaller and they come with super nice "pearl pink" envelopes ..so cute

作者: cremedelacreme 時間: 2009-6-15 21:54

yes, I love Kam Mo Fong too, I got mine from there too. hehe good taste 小叻
