Celebrations That Become Memories
You know that pause?
When the cake comes out, and your guests actually stop talking. When phones come out not just for birthday photos, but because someone needs to remember where you got this.
When the first person cuts into it and says, "Oh wow, look at the layers."
When people reach for the macarons and ask, "These are from where again?"
That's what Bouffant creates.
Not because we're trying to be fancy. Because we use actual French patisserie techniques—the kind usually reserved for $100+ orders at high-end bakeries.
Real mousse, not buttercream disguised as mousse.
Proper mirror glaze, not fondant.
Authentic French macarons, not grocery store versions.
Layers built over 2 days, not assembled in 2 hours.
Seven elegant options for your celebrations:
Five classic mousse cakes ($40-45, serves 8-10)
Grenoble premium cake ($50-55, serves 6)
French macarons (from $25/dozen)
Available daily at East Gosford, or call 24-48 hours ahead to guarantee availability.
This is the difference between:
"Here's cake" → "WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?"
Guests being polite → Guests genuinely impressed
"Nice party" → "Unforgettable celebration"
French quality. Central Coast pricing. That's Bouffant.

For When Standard Celebration Cakes Aren't Quite Right
$50-55 | Serves 6 | 48 Hours Notice Required
Some celebrations don't need a cake for 10 people. Some are intimate. Refined. Where every detail matters, and you want something that matches the sophistication of the occasion.
That's Grenoble.
What Makes Grenoble Different
It's More Complex:
Not just chocolate or fruit mousse. Grenoble is a layered flavour architecture:
Honey-walnut sponge (foundation of warmth)
Milk chocolate molasses mousse (deep, rich, subtle sweetness)
Spiced caramel cream (gentle warmth, no overpowering spice)
Caramelised walnuts (amber shimmer, satisfying crunch, texture contrast)
Every element works together. The honey, the molasses, the caramel spice, the nuts. Nothing dominates. Everything harmonises.
It's Built For Adults:
This isn't a birthday party cake. This is:
Dinner party finale cake
Anniversary indulgence cake
"I want to impress sophisticated friends" cake
50th birthday celebration cake
Not overly sweet. Nutty. Warm. Complex flavours that reveal themselves slowly. The kind of cake that pairs with coffee or dessert wine, not juice boxes.
It's Intimate By Design:
Serves 6 properly. Not 8-10. Not "feeds 12 if you slice thin."
Six generous, intentional servings for people who appreciate quality over quantity.
Perfect for:
Intimate dinner parties (6 around your table)
Small family celebrations
Sophisticated date nights
When you want something special, not big
The Grenoble Story
Named after the French mountain city famous for walnuts, Grenoble captures the essence of refined winter comfort.
Every layer is intentional. Built over 2 days using traditional French technique:
Day 1: Honey-walnut sponge baked, walnuts caramelised to amber perfection, mousses prepared
Day 2: Layers assembled, spiced caramel cream applied, everything sets properly, final presentation
Day 3: Ready for your celebration
Our pastry chef learned this technique in France. The same process, no shortcuts, just proper French patisserie.
This is rustic elegance. Warm sophistication. The cake that lingers in memory like a fireside conversation.
Perfect For:
Intimate Dinner Parties Six people. Multiple courses. Then Grenoble. Your guests will remember this finale.
Milestone Celebrations 40th, 50th, 60th birthdays. Anniversaries. Retirements. Moments deserving refinement.
Cold Weather Celebrations: Autumn and winter. When you want warmth, nuts, spice, comfort elevated to art.
"I Want Something Special" When chocolate mousse is lovely but not quite enough, when you want to serve something memorable.

Why Bouffant Costs $40-55 (Not $25, Not $100)
The 2-Day Process: Most bakeries: bake, fill, frost, done. Same day.
French mousse cakes: Don't work that way. Mousse needs to set time. Layers need stabilisation. Mirror glaze requires specific temperature and technique.
We can't speed this up. Quality takes the time it takes.
Real Ingredients:
Belgian chocolate (not cocoa powder)
Actual fruit purées (not artificial flavouring)
Real cream (not vegetable oil substitutes)
Traditional French ingredients (no shortcuts)
Proper Mirror Glaze: That glossy, reflective finish? Not fondant (cheap and easy). That's mirror glaze a precise mixture of gelatin, glucose, and chocolate requiring specific temperature and technique.
Get it wrong: cloudy, dull, drips.
Get it right: actual reflection, smooth, professional.
We get it right every time.
Honest Portions: "Serves 8-10" = 8-10 actual servings (not 12 thin slices)
"Serves 6" (Grenoble) = 6 generous portions
We'd rather be honest than over-promise.
The Price Comparison:
Supermarket: $20-30 (mass production, basic ingredients)
Bouffant mousse cakes: $40-45 (French techniques, real ingredients, 2 days)
Bouffant Grenoble: $50-55 (premium complexity, intimate servings)
"Custom" bakery: $80-150 (small batch, full customisation, long lead time)
You're getting French bakery-quality at fair, everyday pricing.

"We served Grenoble at our 25th anniversary dinner party. Six couples, all foodies. Everyone wanted the recipe. Everyone was shocked at the $50 price—they guessed $80-100. This is now our 'special occasion' cake."
— Jennifer & Mark, East Gosford

Common Questions About Our Celebration Treats
Q: "How long do mousse cakes last?"
A: 3-4 days refrigerated. Best within 2 days for optimal texture. The mousse holds up well.
Q: "How long do macarons last?"
A: 5-7 days in an airtight container. Best within 3 days. Can be frozen for 2-3 months.
Q: "Can you write on the cakes?"
A: Basic writing (Happy Birthday + name) on request. Elaborate designs need 48 hours. The mirror glaze is the feature—sometimes less is more.
Q: "Can I customize macaron flavors?"
A: Yes! Bespoke flavours available for 100+ pieces. Standard flavours for smaller orders. Call to discuss options.
Q: "Is Grenoble really worth $50-55 vs. $40 mousse cakes?"
A: Different experiences. Mousse cakes: elegant, light, 8-10 servings. Grenoble: complex, rich, intimate (6 servings), premium ingredients. If you're asking, you probably want to try it.
Q: "What if I need dairy-free or gluten-free?"
A: Gluten-free cakes: 48 hours' notice. Dairy-free mousse: Not currently available (mousse requires dairy). Macarons: Naturally gluten-free, working on dairy-free options.
