Cake Flavors (Chefs Vanilla, Red Velvet, Strawberry, Chocolate, Keylime, Wedding Cake White, Orange, Lemon)

*Please note: If you book the order, and fail to give us a flavor choice, vanilla cake will be used by default.  No refund will be granted for this issue.  

All details for your cake must be provided to us at least one month(upon booking; unless we accept a special request) prior to the date you plan to pick up, or at the time of booking. NO CHANGES TO DESIGN OR FLAVORS ARE PERMITTED after this deadline, unless we approve them. In this case, a $50 Rush Change fee will apply.  This fee is used to compensate for time and materials used for your order at the time of the change request.  Orders booked with insufficient details for us to complete the order, may be cancelled by us, and deposit remains nonrefundable. 

​

Payment Process/Deposit

WE REQUIRE PAYMENT IN FULL TO BOOK ALL ORDERS. THIS MEANS YOUR ORDER IS NOT BOOKED OR GUARANTEED UNTIL PAYMENT IS RECEIVED. Although we may discuss your order’s details, if you do not pay your invoice, we do NOT have your order confirmed and planned in our calendar. Should someone else contact us to book that same date, and our book fills for your desired date, your order will not be completed. It is important that you communicate with us should there be an issue with you making immediate payment to book your order. Otherwise, you run the risk of losing availability.

Payments are nonrefundable, as our retainers always were. However, IF there is an issue after you have paid for your order, we will give you store credit as follows:

• If you cancel a celebration cake at least a week prior to scheduled pick up day, we will credit 100% of purchase price toward a future order.

• If you cancel more than 72 hours prior to pick up, but less than a week prior, a 50% cancellation fee will be deducted from the credit.

• If you cancel a celebration cake less than 72 hours prior to scheduled pick up day, NO REFUND will be given.

• FOR WEDDING CAKES: We can reschedule your wedding cake, at no additional cost, ONLY if you contact us at least 14 days prior to your wedding date; anything less will result in a 50% reschedule fee. Further, NO rescheduling is permitted if less than 14 days’ notice is given. This is the bare minimum amount of time needed for planning and preparing for large wedding orders and the delivery/set up for those.

• We will NOT provide a credit for wedding orders, other than providing the same order/cake on a new date, and sufficient notice of new date must be provided to allow us the ability to accommodate the order.

 

Processing of Refunds

All transactions are final. In the event a refund is deemed appropriate, it will be issued by electronic refund if you paid with a credit/debit card. We do not accept cash. Refunds to your card will be issued within 14 days.*Please note: Once the refund is issued electronically, it may take several days to appear in your account. In any event a refund is issued, it may or may not take longer to credit your account, depending on your bank. 

 

Hours & Pick-Up Times

Our hours are Tuesday-Saturday 9:00am - 5pm, Friday 9:00am - 7:00pm, and Saturday 10:00am - 4:00pm. We are closed Sunday and Monday.

We may ask for an approximate pick up time.  This allows us to plan our strict schedule of the order in which to complete our cake orders each day.  If you need to pick up much earlier than you planned, please contact us right away so we can make sure to have your order completed in time.

 

Please make sure to pick your cake up PRIOR to our closing time. We do understand that emergencies arise, and are willing to accommodate those times, as much as possible. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of staff for an after-hours pick up. Further, this will only be available if we are contacted prior to closing! Please understand that in most cases we do NOT keep items stored several days, and do not keep anything overnight Friday, since we are closed until Tuesday, so we will resell or donate items left after closing unless prior arrangements have been made. In some prearranged situations, we may freeze your cake or cupcakes for you so they stay fresh until you can pick up the following week. After-hours arrangements may result in a minimum $40.00 service fee, at the sole discretion of owner.  It is YOUR responsibility, not ours, to make this contact and any necessary arrangements.

 

NO SHOWS AND UNCLAIMED ORDERS!!!

In the event you fail to pick up your order, the same rules apply: It is YOUR responsibility, not ours, that you make arrangements to pick up during normal business hours. These hours are posted on several pages of our website, on Google and other search engines, our Facebook and Instagram pages, the bakery doors and drive thru window. They are also provided to you in the auto replies to inquiries and messages on our social media pages. There will be NO REFUND made for any orders that were not picked up!!  Further, we reserve the right to resell the items or donate them to the charity of our choice.  In cases in which a deposit was the only payment received, we will likely resell the items.  In an effort to give back to our community, ALL orders in which we received at least half of the total cost in advance, will be donated to a charity or shelter. In some cases, when already paid for, we may store your cake in our freezer until the following business day, prior to donating, to allow you to pick up and enjoy - if space allows.

In an effort to be available for emergencies, we make every attempt to keep the business phone on and someone available to answer it for one hour after closing, in the event we have an unclaimed order that day (we may not always be able to provide this courtesy). After that hour, if we have still not heard from you, the phone is set to Do Not Disturb, and the cake/cupcakes are posted for resell or donated, whichever applies.  

 

Client Responsibility/Transport

 

All products are the client’s responsibility upon leaving the bakery, unless it is being delivered by us.

Keep in mind that cakes are very fragile and damages can happen if not handled properly – such as cracks, smudges, melted frosting, etc.

 

• Please drive carefully, keep cake lying flat in car, and keep in a cool climate

• Georgia/Florida summers get extremely humid and hot; both being very hard on cake and icing. We keep all orders refrigerated, and recommend that clients do the same, especially during hot summer months. This will keep the cake cool, and makes it much easier to transport without damage. Sitting it out at room temperature for 30 minutes will soften the icing back up.

• DO NOT leave cake sitting outside for any length of time, even for a party. It will melt, and can melt in less than 20 minutes in higher temperatures.

• DO NOT PLACE YOUR CAKE IN THE CAR SEAT! It is NOT level or flat! Doing so will cause the cake to slide and be damaged.

• Do NOT leave your cake in the car while running into the store for balloons or other items, even if it is only 50 degrees outside! If the sun is out, the interior of your car is likely much warmer than that, and the cake will melt!

• Do NOT place your cake on the counter near your stove, and then use the stove to cook food! Although keeping many types of cakes at room temperature is perfectly okay, the heat and/or moisture from the stove will cause the "room" temperature to rise and the cake/frosting to melt and fall apart!

• Do NOT place in a "sun-lit" area. Even when left on a table, or counter, in a climate-cooled room. If sitting in direct sunlight from a window, a cake will get too warm and melt over time.

 

If you are not sure of the proper transport and care of the cake, please ask!

 

Damaged Cake Repairs

If you bring a cake back to us, we may be able to repair it; but you may incur a minimum $50 repair charge. Depending on the extent of the damage, the original cake may not be suitable for repairs and may need to be replaced. In such instances, additional charges may apply. After hours repairs are at the SOLE discretion of the owner.  Please call me and take pictures to send to me of the damage, so I can ascertain whether or not I will be able to repair it for you.
