Care Instructions

Care Instructions

Every creation from The Cake & Flower Hub is carefully prepared, arranged and packed to arrive looking beautiful. As our collection includes fresh flowers, handcrafted cakes, chocolates, balloons and delicate gift arrangements, each product requires slightly different care.

Please follow the instructions below to preserve the freshness, appearance and quality of your gift for as long as possible.

๐Ÿ’ Fresh Flower Bouquets

Fresh flowers naturally require water and a cool environment to maintain their beauty.

  • Carefully remove any wrapping around the lower stems without disturbing the arrangement.

  • Trim approximately 1โ€“2 cm from the bottom of each stem at a diagonal angle.

  • Place the bouquet in a clean vase filled with fresh, room-temperature water.

  • Remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline.

  • Change the water every day or whenever it becomes cloudy.

  • Keep the bouquet away from direct sunlight, heaters, air conditioners and strong draughts.

  • Remove wilted flowers and leaves to help the remaining flowers stay fresh.

  • Keep flowers away from ripening fruit, as it can cause them to age more quickly.

For the best presentation, display your bouquet in a cool indoor location.

๐ŸŒน Imported Flowers

Imported flowers are carefully sourced and may require gentle handling after delivery.

  • Unpack the bouquet carefully and avoid pulling individual flowers from the arrangement.

  • Trim the stems diagonally before placing them in clean water.

  • Use a clean vase and refresh the water daily.

  • Keep the flowers in a cool room away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.

  • Avoid frequently touching the petals, as imported flowers can be delicate.

  • If the arrangement contains floral foam, add a small amount of clean water daily to keep the foam moist.

  • Do not overfill boxed arrangements, as excessive water may damage the packaging.

The appearance and opening stage of imported flowers may change naturally over time.

๐ŸŒธ Flower Mala and Gajra

Fresh flower malas and gajras are delicate and should be handled gently.

  • Keep them inside their protective packaging until they are needed.

  • Lightly mist the flowers with clean water without soaking them.

  • Store them in a cool refrigerator, away from frozen items and direct airflow.

  • Do not place heavy objects on top of the flowers.

  • Avoid folding, pressing or crushing the arrangement.

  • Remove them from the refrigerator shortly before wearing or presenting.

  • Do not place malas or gajras inside the freezer.

For the best freshness and fragrance, we recommend using flower malas and gajras on the scheduled delivery day.

๐ŸŽ‚ Cakes

Our cakes are freshly prepared and should be stored correctly after delivery.

  • Refrigerate the cake as soon as possible, especially during warm weather.

  • Keep it inside its original box to protect the decoration and flavour.

  • Place the box on a clean, flat and stable shelf.

  • Do not place heavy items on top of the cake box.

  • Keep the cake away from direct sunlight, heaters and warm surfaces.

  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator approximately 20โ€“30 minutes before serving.

  • Use a clean, sharp knife for neat slices.

  • Return any remaining cake to the refrigerator in a covered container.

Decorative toppers, ribbons, wires, flowers and other non-edible elements must be removed before serving. Please follow any additional storage guidance provided for your selected cake flavour or design.

๐Ÿซ Chocolates and Edible Gifts

Chocolate products are sensitive to heat and moisture.

  • Store chocolates in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

  • Keep them away from heaters, warm vehicles and humid areas.

  • During very hot weather, place packaged chocolates in a refrigerator if necessary.

  • Keep chocolates sealed to protect their flavour and prevent moisture.

  • Check the packaging for any individual expiry or allergen information.

  • Consume edible products within the recommended period stated on their packaging.

  • Do not consume an item if its packaging is damaged or its freshness appears affected.

Products may contain or come into contact with dairy, nuts, gluten, soy or other allergens. Please inform us about known allergies before placing an order.

๐Ÿงบ Chocolate Bouquets, Gift Baskets and Gift Boxes

Our gift arrangements contain several products that may require different types of care.

  • Keep the complete arrangement upright on a clean and stable surface.

  • Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or excessive heat.

  • Remove fresh flowers and place them in water when appropriate.

  • Refrigerate cakes and other temperature-sensitive items promptly.

  • Keep chocolates and packaged snacks in a cool, dry location.

  • Handle ribbons, decorations and packaging gently.

  • Check individual products for expiry dates and storage instructions.

  • Keep the arrangement away from water unless it contains flowers in floral foam.

If the arrangement includes both edible and decorative items, separate and store each item according to its individual requirements.

๐ŸŽˆ Balloons

Balloons are delicate and can be affected by temperature, pressure and sharp objects.

  • Keep balloons indoors in a cool, ventilated environment.

  • Avoid direct sunlight, heaters, candles, flames and hot vehicles.

  • Keep balloons away from sharp objects, rough walls and pointed furniture.

  • Do not pull balloons forcefully by their ribbons.

  • Sudden temperature changes may cause balloons to expand, shrink or burst.

  • Do not release helium balloons outdoors or near electrical cables.

  • Keep uninflated or burst balloons away from babies, young children and pets.

Balloon float time varies depending on balloon type, room temperature and environmental conditions.

๐Ÿงธ Teddy Bears and Soft Toys

To keep teddy bears and soft toys clean and presentable:

  • Keep them away from moisture, food stains and dusty surfaces.

  • Gently remove surface dust using a soft brush or dry cloth.

  • Spot-clean small marks with a lightly damp cloth.

  • Do not machine-wash unless the product label specifically allows it.

  • Allow the toy to dry completely in a ventilated area.

  • Keep soft toys away from flames, heaters and direct sunlight.

  • Retain any product labels containing safety or cleaning information.

๐ŸŽ Decorative Packaging and Keepsakes

Our ribbons, baskets, boxes and decorative packaging are carefully selected to complete the presentation.

  • Lift gift boxes from the base instead of pulling them by the ribbon.

  • Keep baskets and boxes away from water and moisture.

  • Do not place heavy objects on top of decorative packaging.

  • Store reusable boxes and baskets in a clean, dry location.

  • Remove any pins, wires, skewers or sharp decorative elements before giving products to children.
