Custom Vegan Birthday Cakes: Brie’s Sweets


If you're searching for a vegan bakery in Montreal that offers fully custom birthday cakes, Brie’s Sweets specializes in made-to-order cakes designed around your celebration.


Instead of choosing a standard cake from a display case, you can customize yours to match the look and feel you have in mind. That might mean a simple birthday cake with delicate piping and a short message, a heart-shaped vintage cake with intricate details, or a completely custom design inspired by photos you’ve saved.


And because our cakes are vegan from the start, we don't treat vegan ingredients as a substitution or afterthought. Our cakes are made without dairy or eggs, while still delivering the flavour, texture, and finish you'd expect from a “regular” custom celebration cake.


You can browse our Birthday & Celebration Cakes for ideas and inspiration.


Choose Your Vegan Birthday Cake Style

Not sure what kind of cake you want? Here are a few of the most popular styles: 


Vintage Cakes

Vintage cakes are perfect if you love detailed piping, playful colours, and a little drama.


Inspired by traditional piping techniques, these cakes can include layered borders, ruffles, shells, swags, writing and other decorative details. They can be elegant and romantic or colourful and playful depending on your celebration.


Vintage piping also works really well on heart-shaped birthday cakes.

Minimalist Cakes

Sometimes simple is better.


Minimalist birthday cakes typically have a more pared-back design, such as a clean colour palette, simple buttercream piping or a short personalized message.


They're a great option if you want a cake that feels modern and beautiful without much elaborate decoration.

Floral Cakes

For something romantic, soft or garden-inspired, a floral cake can make a beautiful centrepiece for a birthday celebration.


Florals can be incorporated into the overall colour palette and design to create anything from a delicate, understated cake to something more detailed and dramatic.

Heart Cakes

Heart cakes are one of our favourite options for birthdays and celebrations.


They work particularly well with vintage piping, but they don't have to be over-the-top. A heart-shaped cake can also feature simple colours and minimal details for a cleaner look.


Add a personalized message, your favourite colours, or piping details to make the design your own.

Celebration & Custom Cakes

Have something completely different in mind? That’s totally okay – and we’d love to hear your design inspo! 


Custom birthday cakes can be designed around a theme, colour palette, reference image or general idea. Send us inspiration photos to use as a starting point and create a cake that fits your celebration and style. 


Vegan Cake Flavours, Fillings & Customization

Ordering a vegan birthday cake doesn’t mean you have to settle for one basic flavour or design. Your cake can be customized based on the options available for your order, including:


  • Cake flavour

  • Filling

  • Frosting

  • Colour palette

  • Cake size

  • Shape 

  • Piping style

  • Writing 

  • Florals and other decorative details

  • Overall design and theme 


You can choose from the options in the dropdown menu on the order form, but these are some of the most popular flavour combos:


  • Chocolate raspberry

  • Lemon raspberry 

  • Vanilla strawberry

  • Pistachio raspberry

  • Chocolate espresso 


Want a flavour combo that’s not listed on our website? We welcome completely custom cake, icing, and filling flavours. We’d love to work with you to create your dream cake. 


Vegan vs. Dairy-Free vs. Egg-Free Cake: What's the Difference?

These terms are often used interchangeably, but they don’t mean the same thing:


  • Vegan cakes are made without animal-derived ingredients, including milk, butter, cream, eggs, and any other ingredient that comes from an animal. 

  • Dairy-free cakes are made without dairy products, but they aren’t necessarily vegan. For example, a dairy-free birthday cake could still contain eggs. 

  • Egg-free or eggless cakes don’t contain eggs, but they may still contain dairy products such as milk or butter. 


All Brie’s Sweets cakes are vegan, meaning they’re made without dairy and eggs. 


So, if you’re searching for a dairy-free birthday cake or an eggless cake in Montreal, a vegan cake may be just what you’re looking for. If you’re ordering because of an allergy rather than a dietary preference, however, please let us know about that allergy when submitting your inquiry. 


Can You Order a Vegan Gluten-Free Birthday Cake? 

We offer gluten-free vegan options for certain cakes and flavours. If you need a gluten-free birthday cake as well as a vegan cake, please include that information when submitting your order inquiry so we can let you know which options are available.


Please also let us know if your request is related to an allergy or celiac disease, as dietary preferences and serious allergies require different considerations.


How Much Does a Vegan Birthday Cake Cost in Montreal?

The price of a custom vegan birthday cake depends on more than just its size. Because every Brie’s Sweets cake is made to order with high-quality ingredients, the final price also depends on the design and level of detail involved. 


For simple or minimalist custom cakes, prices start at:

Cake Size

Starting Price

4-inch

$100+

6-inch

$150+

8-inch

$220+


More detailed cakes are quoted individually.


Some of the biggest factors that can affect the price of a custom cake include:


  • Size and number of servings

  • Cake height and layers

  • Piping complexity

  • Heart or specialty shapes

  • Florals

  • Decorative elements 

  • The overall amount of time required to create the design


For example, a minimalist 4-inch birthday cake with simple piping will generally cost less than an intricately piped vintage heart cake with several colours and custom details.


If you have a budget in mind, feel free to include it when submitting your order inquiry, and we can let you know what's possible within that range. 


How Far Ahead Should You Order a Vegan Birthday Cake?

It's always best to order ahead rather than waiting until the week of your celebration, especially if your cake is super custom and detailed. 


We generally recommend placing your order at least 1 to 2 weeks in advance, particularly if you have a specific date, design or cake style in mind.


More elaborate custom cakes may require additional notice, and availability can be more limited during busy weekends and holiday periods.


If your birthday is coming up sooner, you can still submit an inquiry. Depending on our availability and the complexity of the cake, we may be able to accommodate shorter-notice orders.
