❤️ A little reminder about supporting small businesses.
When you choose to place an order with a small, independent business, you're doing more than just buying a product. You're helping to pay bills, put food on the table and support a family. Every single order, every bake and every sale genuinely counts.
Behind every order is time, money, ingredients, electricity, preparation and often a lot of late nights to make sure everything is just right.
When you place an order, we make that product specifically for you. Ingredients are purchased, time is set aside and the work is done in good faith that you'll collect and pay as agreed.
Normally, we always ask for a deposit on pre-orders, and there's a reason for that. On this occasion, I chose to make an exception and trusted that the collection arrangements would be honoured.
Unfortunately, that trust has left us with an order that has been made, packaged and paid for out of our own pocket, with no collection and no payment.
We completely understand that emergencies happen, and nobody is expected to put an order before something genuinely important. But communication costs nothing. A simple message to let us know you can no longer collect is all it takes.
What isn't acceptable is placing an order, having someone go out of their way to make it, arrange collection, and then simply disappearing without a word.
Please remember, when you order from a small business and don't collect or pay, you're not just costing that business a sale. You're quite literally taking money away from a family's household.
No order is too small to matter. Whether it's one cake, four slices or a big celebration order, every penny goes towards keeping a small business going.
We put our time, money and passion into what we do, and all we ask in return is a little consideration and respect.
Going forward, deposits will be required on all pre-orders, without exception.
To everyone who genuinely supports us, places orders, collects and pays, thank you. You have no idea how much it means to us. ❤️
Please support small businesses with the same respect and consideration you'd expect from any other business.
On this occasion we chose to pay this forward, turn a negative into a positive. The order was cut up packaged and labeled and given out to the kids for Halloween. 🎃🎃🎃🎃🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🎃👻👻👻👻👻👻👻
