About Us
A few of the Heidelberg Cakes team, including owners James & Carolyn Schmidt (on right) celebrating having just returned from another successful year at the Baking Industry Association Awards.
Heidelberg Cakes has been providing fresh, fantastic tasting and beautifully designed cakes to customers across Adelaide, South Australia and even Australia wide since 1991.
A family owned and operated business, our whole team of professionally trained cake decorators offer you their combined decades of knowledge and experience to craft a cake perfect for you, your guests and the climatic conditions your cake must endure.
The highest attention to detail is given to every cake, regardless of whether it’s a one person cup cake – right through to multi-level Wedding or Corporate cake.
No cake size or theme deters us … we love a challenge. Just have a look here at this 10th Anniversary cake for ‘Power Ball’ displayed under a Marquee in Rundle Mall. This was customised to SA Lotteries’ exact requirements and we’ve been told it is the largest cake ever baked in South Australia! Yep, we had some fun with this one!
"One of South Australia’s favourite drops – a Farmers Union Iced Coffee was an ‘appropriate’ theme cake for one of our customers!"
Quality Fresh Ingredients
Heidelberg Cakes offer you a significant point-of-difference with the ingredients we use to design and bake your luscious cake …
All are hand made FRESH in our own premises to our own recipes.
We’re delighted to receive so many thank you cards, from our customers, raving about our unique fillings and coverings. These include: • Almond Marzipan • Hazelnut Nougat • Lemon Curd • Pureed Fresh Strawberries • Sour Cherries • Chocolate Mousse • Flaked Almonds. Fresh cream and our famous light custard based buttercream.
Delivery – On-time and FRESH
A major benefit many customers often comment on, in particular our Bridal parties and regular Corporate clients, is our commitment to providing what we perceive to be a common sense service for our industry …
We own our own Refrigerated, Hygienic delivery vans!!
Beyond our dedication to supply our cakes on time, we also guarantee that the cake arrives boxed, labelled and in perfect conditioned everytime.
Our customised refrigerated delivery vans enables us to avoid contracting deliveries to unrefrigerated Courier vans, or delivering cakes from the back seat or car boot.
