<p>Does anyone have any ideas about birthday cakes at Elon? I check the food service site but nothing was there.
The mail order B'day cakes are outrageously priced with delivery/</p>
<p>Given how responsive dining services has been (and my daughter does not even attend Elon), I would imagine that a phone call to their administrative offices (they are in Colonades) would be in order;
they probably have some type of arrangement or can get it for you. (Not sure if you know this but their food service has access to any product that is also carried in Whole Foods)</p>
<p>Last year I went through food services, but I don’t see any listing for it this year. My daughter didn’t like the chocolate chip cookie cake I ordered for her, so it is good to know they can get something from Whole Foods. They have a wonderful bakery section here where I live.</p>
<p>I recently called on this and was told this service was discontinued due to lack of interest. The catering department very kindly accepted my order and made my child a cake. Cost was around $21.00.</p>
<p>I am confused. So did you order the cake from the Whole foods catering department or the Elon Catering department???</p>
<p>Elon Catering. I had a cake made last year and couldn’t find the info on the website this year. I called Food Service and they told me they were no longer doing this due to lack of interest. I asked the lady from Food Service if she knew a local company I could call that might deliver a cake to Elon. She took my name and number and said she would have someone call me back. The next day I got a call from a very nice lady at Elon Catering, and she told me they would make the cake. She took all the info over the phone, sent me a confirmation e-mail and sent my son a text on his birthday telling him he had a perishable gift to be picked up in Harden Dining Hall. Needless to say, I was extremely pleased!!</p>
<p>Mother Bear Thank YOU!!!</p>
