ex-HKG is usually a white fruit cake, and ex-LAX is chocolate (the routes I generally fly). Custom messages and cake type aren't guaranteed...and you need to schedule couple days in advance.

Here are some cakes over the years I randomly pulled from my google photos so you can get an idea what the cakes look like. Hope this helps!
