MamaVera bakes birthday cakes and full dessert spreads to order and brings them anywhere in Lisbon. That can be one cake for a family dinner in Alvalade, or a cake plus five or six sweet formats for a party of sixty on a rooftop. Own recipes, real cream and butter, fruit bought the same week.
Tell us the flavour direction and roughly how many people will actually eat cake — that number is usually smaller than the guest count, and we would rather size it honestly. Popular choices are honey cake with sour-cream layers, Napoleon, chocolate and salted caramel, and a light berry-and-mascarpone sponge. Decoration ranges from a clean glaze with fresh fruit to hand-piped work and a name on top.
For larger birthdays, a single cake leaves the table looking bare. We usually add tartlets, éclairs, small cheesecakes in glasses and a fruit platter so people can graze between courses. It also solves the diets: one vegan and one gluten-free format means nobody stands there with an empty plate.
We deliver to homes, restaurants that allow outside cake, coworking spaces and event venues across Lisbon, in cooled transport with the cake boxed and boarded. If you want the desserts arranged on the table rather than handed over at the door, we can stay and set up. Candles, a cake knife and plates come with us if you ask.
Yes — we bake gluten-free sponges and reduced-sugar versions regularly; tell us the constraint and we will suggest the recipes that hold up best.
Three to four days for most cakes, longer if the decoration is detailed or the party falls on a busy weekend.
Tell us the date, the number of guests and the style — we'll send a tailored proposal.
