Order Deposits/Retainers:
Order deposits and retainers are necessary for locking in your desired DATE for your custom order.
In addition, any add-ons/ needed materials that will be used for your cake/order are purchased with your deposit, especially orders that have edible images/extra decor pieces that have to be outsourced from other business owners.
Without your retainer, your date is not locked in on my calendar, and I will not guarantee that your order will be completed by your desired date.
All Custom orders/Custom cake orders ideally should be booked as early as possible. Depending on the day/event I will only be taking a limited number of custom orders.
ORDERING TIMELINE:
If your order is not placed within a weeks (7 Days) notice (OR [5] days for simple *no image/no add on * custom cakes, celebration boxes) there will be a ***RUSH FEE*** applied to your order at the owners discretion.
FULL PAYMENT REQUIRED:
If your custom order amount is UNDER $150, your full order amount is due to retain services.
SPECIALS/PROMOS:
If booking under a featured/special/promo/discount/sale - your full payment is due at the time of booking. No exceptions.
Once your invoice is accepted and sent out you will have (24) hours to pay your invoice amount or your order will be canceled. No exceptions.
***If you are booking a custom order with less than (1) weeks notice; THE FULL AMOUNT + ALL FEES IS DUE UPFRONT WITHIN (2) HOURS OF YOUR INVOICE BEING ACCEPTED. NO EXCEPTIONS.***
